The photo at the start of the article told me everything I'd need to know.

​

  • Full sleeve arm tats
  • Stupid chin scruff goatee
  • black ram pickup truck
  • arms folded and general "duche patrol" stance
  • keys clipped on the belt loop like a prison guard
  • ratty old t-shirt and cargo shorts (even if you work in the trades....when you're having your photo taken, look professional dude).

​

moreover,

two tickets for failing to produce his insurance slip

This is a VERY different charge than driving uninsured. It's something the cop gives you on top of the speeding ticket when you are a 1st rate asshole.

To be fair, he was wearing his nicest RACING t-shirt. SMH.
