I was cutting through a parking the other day and didn’t think much of it. All of a sudden I saw lights on behind me. PD? For what?
I happily oblige and pull over…why wouldn’t I? I have no drugs no guns I wasn’t speeding.
*Officer approaches*
*I hit the window down button * (I mean, I ‘rolled’ the window down? Are we still describing it that way?)
“Do you know why I pulled you over?”
No, I honestly don’t, I responded.
“You cut across the parking lot”
…Is….that a illegal?
“Look, this is a store parking, there are people walking out here, you could have hit someone”
Well, I didn’t and I’m nowhere near the front door.
“Are you getting smart with me?”
No I’m not, I’m stating a fact and I asked whether or not what I did was illegal. You avoided my question.
“Oh, are you a lawyer?”
I haven’t passed the bar, but I know a little bit.
Officer is deadpan.
Enough that you won’t illegally search my shit.
Officer is deadpan.
It’s a Jay Z lyric. I was making a joke
“I know that.” The Officer continues to stare.
“Look, don’t cut across lanes in my parking lot, understand?”
Yes sir.
