Aint no such a thing as good bbq north of the mason Dixon line I tell you what

No no but for real, firefly is a favorite in mass. In RI I find durk's to be very good. But I don't know any better.

You’ve got to do a lot to get URIPD to pull you over (much more than a regular cop). They’re notorious for doing as little work as possible. The cop wasn’t apologetic towards you, he was feeling sorry for himself that he had to actually do something. Probably wasn’t a slow roll through the stop sign, more a 20 mph coast that he couldn’t choose to ignore.

Regardless, it’s easy to get stuff expunged if you’re a good driver. You won’t have any trouble.

That you were tired and wanted to get home is not information which will help you. You were driving, so I am sure you were fully focused on driving safely. You were driving late at night, when traffic was light. There was very good visibility in the approach to the intersection, so you could easily see that the intersection was clear even before your vehicle came to a complete stop. Nevertheless, you did come to a full and complete stop before proceeding to your destination. Perhaps you waited at the intersection for a shorter period than you usually do, but it was getting late and again, traffic was light, visibility was very good, and the intersection was clear. You are a 20 year old student with good grades, and you are an RA at your university.
