Especially if his dad has the judgement to do something like that he probably would have looked first.

1) What you may think is a "controlled manner " may not be the same as a professional driver ie. the officer that gave the citation.
2) Ok but maby you wouldn't consider that dangerous but the law is what it is , weather we like it or not (for now at least) The officer made what may have been a judgement call but that is for him to do after all they do it all day long .
3) Dads judgement ; As you say, "If he had the judgement to do something like that he probably would have looked first" Well I guess not since we are here now with this issue at hand , Thus we return to the Issue of personal judgement . It was a bad move and someone got caught doing it ! S..t happens , and someones gotta take a bite, Via the dual autographed little yellow glove box liner from your local town, parish, city,state,county or goverment aponted official.

Hey I'm no kill-joy ,I like to drive fast & have ( I Lived in Germany for some time ) fun but when I get caught , well I just have to suck it up and try t be smarter about it next time.
