You're out with Mr. Special; you've been dating for over a year. It's been a great night, and you're planning to take in a movie prior to a late night dinner. Mr. Special is driving in the left lane, going 3 miles over the speed limit, through Strict Suburb, and is pulled over for speeding and for changing lanes without using his turn signal.

Okay, he changed lanes once he saw the flashing lights, and THREE miles over the limit?? He is given a ticket for "just" the speeding, and not the changing lanes.

Knowing that he is dependent on his car for work, and you make more than he, do you offer to help pay for the ticket?

FYI, I did question why he didn't use "ma'am" to the police woman, or "sir" with the back up policeman. We're both convinced that she was being trained for speed traps. Luckily, he was able to go to Traffic School for a night so it won't show on his insurance.
I'm confused... You mean he is in "Lane #1" vs. "Lane #2" or do you mean Britain?

If you mean Lane #1... Then yeah, while EFF'ed up, they DO give tixs for over 3 mph over the speed limit... How did they gauge he was 3 mph over?
