五月二号一大早送儿子去机场。回来在还有两分钟就到家的Saddleback Road被警察拦下。警察说Saddleback是50Km zone,我开65。给了一张speeding ticket,89刀。不幸得是我的保险4月27日到期,新的邮来了,但我忘了换。No Insurance! 172刀。跟警察解释了半天,就是不行。最终还是拿了两张罚单。郁闷。8 j$ Q$ z1 O& T- K' a; G$ V
2 c! ^# J6 f+ @* x3 S今天去交罚款。下午2点出门去LRT站。It was windy. 虽然有太阳,但不是很暖和。缩着脖子来到车站。做LRT到Churchill Station,沿着通道直接就到了Court。"that gentleman. Security check", somebody called at me. 我突然注意到进Court要过安检。脱了夹克、皮带,钱包,手机,和机场安检差不多。3 n3 j9 C$ G, F) v4 p0 `+ n* U- L
9 b6 S! N' i1 S在Court正门边有一个厅,就在那里交罚金。排了几分钟队,看到Cashier那有一个Sign: "All cell phone must be turned off"。我的手偷偷地在口袋里把手机关成了震动。
" @0 x( N' A) w1 c$ w"Next", a cashier said. "what can I do for you".9 X3 n8 G3 F+ R5 K
"I will pay this", I gave her the speeding ticket, "and I'd like to see someone about this".: t- b1 C. Z: H0 Z; O
"Ok. I just send all these to the crown. wait there", she pointed to the seats.# X0 R# h4 n4 E8 c; I; W
"Ok. thank you", I said.
( W- V, K5 V# V4 y: N+ X刚在那坐一分钟左右。一个门背后伸出一个老者人头,"Wang"。我有些犹豫,不可能这么快吧。"Wang", that old man called again. "Oh, here", I said. 那是一个小房间。. R% q/ Z7 q. k5 @& T* U' H5 ~

在小房间里呆了最多两分钟。到Cashier那交了89刀后,走出Court。外面风和日丽,阳光明媚,真是一个好天气。 |
