a mountain out of a molehill no i think you are the one who takes things too lightly if you must text while you're out you should stop somewhere and get out of everyone's way oh come on you can't stop every time you want to look at your phone then at least keep checking ahead of you to make sure you're not going to walk into someone fine you've gotten your point across i'll be more careful from now on [Music] hello officer is there something wrong ma'am you parked in front of a hydra your ticket is almost
completed what you're giving me a ticket yes ma'am but i only went in the bakery to get some bread it's very dangerous what you did it's a safety violation look i know i shouldn't have parked here but i was only gone to a minute anybody would park here if the spot were empty without realizing the plug was there i've already written the ticket i can't take it back surely you could cancel it if you wanted it was literally one minute one minute two minutes you can't park here it's as simple as that you even blocked
the handicap ramp but i just had to dash into the bakery to buy bread supposing you cancelled it just these ones i don't care what you were doing i can't cancel a ticket it's more than my job's worth you've got two weeks to pay okay fine how much do i need to pay 51 51 oh my goodness [Music] thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe to our youtube channel for more videos like this [Music]
