On a long drive from Virginia, Tom thought he was traveling at a reasonable speed, but the flashing blue lights in his rear- view mirror made him realize that he'd been over the limit. He handed the officer his license and m registration "I'm usually very careful about my speed," he bragged to the officer.
The officer studied it and then gave it back. "Sir," he said gruffly, "this is not your registration."
It was a warning ticket Tom had received for speeding in South Carolina.
