How long would it have taken the officer to say "look lady my supervisor says I have to arrest you if you don't sign this ticket"? about 2 seconds, he would have made it seem as if the decision was out of his hands and she probably would have signed it. (maybe not) but she was not going to run anywhere. When I was eight months pregnant I couldn't run. And my hormones were out of wack too. Can anyone say "sensitivity training"? That officer must be a real piece of work at home with the wife and kids.

He probably did say exactly that, but this woman had an advanced case of BWOCS and couldn't hear him.
