Another Californian experience

Hi everyone,

For the second time, I have been stopped by the police... It 's getting a habit ;-)

The first time, Go was driving and we missed a red light. Luckily Go didn't show his American passport and we have just received a warning. Ohterwise it would probably have been a 260$ ticket.

This time I was on my bike coming back from my office at 7 pm. I was still biking on the campus. I didn't stop at a stop sign: big mistake... I wish I had seen the two police officers standing on the sidewalk. In fact they stopped me for two reasons: 1) I didn't stop at the stop sign and 2) I don't have a front light on my bike. They told me they would be kind this time: no ticket because of the stop sign, but I have to come to the police station to show that my bike is properly equipped, otherwise I could be arrested and put in jail :-S (at least that's what they told me). Half an hour later, they had finished all the paper work and they let me go.

I hope this is the last time, but we use to say "jamais deux, sans trois" so you never know!
