Another brush with the law.
Another morning I left home for work. As I drive my way to work there are always groups of schoolkids gathered together at various points waiting for the school bus to come and pick them up. Just as I come to the end of my park developement where I need to take a left turn there are always a group of kids and a bus stop.
In this country when a school bus stops for kids an actual stop sign pops out of the drivers side of the bus and all traffic must stop and stay a safe distance from the bus. On this occasion I was static at the junction needing to turn left while the bus had stopped to the left of me, cars lined up behind the bus, the bus driver waved me out to make my turn. So carefully I drove on, as I cleared the bus and surveyed the cars behind, oh shit! about 3 cars back there is a police car. What should I do? Just drive on and ignore the cop. NO I think the best thing to do is roll down my window and tell him that I was waved on by the driver. As I slow down I see the cop getting ready to ask me before I say anything. So when he said "Did you Stop" I just nodded and told him the driver had waved me on. The cop said OK and I drove onward to work.
