I've got an old high school friend who's no a retired cop. In his entire career he only wrote one ticket for failure to yield. He was responding to a possible heart attack 911 call. Was on a narrow road, lights and siren on and had a teen driver in front of him that wouldn't pull over. According to my friend he was behind this kid 4 or 5 miles when he heard on the radio that the EMT's were on scene so he followed this kid until he did finally pull over and wrote him a ticket. He told me he first ask the kid if A. he didn't know there was an emergency vehicle behind him (kid said yes) then ask B. why didn't you pull over? The kid told him that he didn't know he was supposed to.

Then her car broke down. Should have been about a 90 dollar fix at that time. I told her that it would cost me about $550 dollars to get the parts to fix it (multi port injection and it had one bad injector). Even though she had the money she thought it was too much. So for the next 5 years my wife or I would take her shopping and to doctor appointments as needed. Was the best solution to getting her out from behind the wheel.
