My mum got caught speeding once, and she was just let off... told me she was wasted at the time aswell My mum also knew someone who was caught by the police going through a red light, the guy refused to pay the fine or whatever it was and took the policeman to court on claims that the light was amber and not red. The man listened to everything in court and when asked if he had anything to say or whatever, he asked the policeman what colour car he was driving. When the policeman couldn't answer, the guy turned back and said - "If you can't be so sure what colour car I was driving, how can you be so sure what colour light I went through?" He got let off...
