Years ago a friend was driving his late 60s muscle car on a turnpike at about
100 MPH. Soon an officer sternly stated, License and registration.

Several minutes later he returned with a written warning for driving 100 in a
65 zone.

The offender said, Not to be disrespectful, but how do you decide when to give
a ticket and when to give a written warning?

The officer stated, It depends on … the nature of the offense …
the condition of the road … the weather … the attitude of the offender …
or in this case Im out of tickets.
