speeding tickets and 29

when i first came down to charlottesville to visit my sister at uva and until now, i have been warned about the cops on 29. fortunately for me, i haven't encountered them yet - well, not until this past weekend. mr. charlie was driving us up to northern virginia for the att national golf tournament and right around warrenton, the lights went on. we got pulled over for speeding while listening to barbara streisand - i guess she moved charlie a little too much. the ticket is $5 for each mile over the speed limit and then the additional processing fees. there is a court date set for august when we get back from our trip. there were cops everywhere this weekend. who knew it was such a prime weekend to catch traffic violators.

so...watch out for cops on 29. especially on big holiday weekends.
