I was 3/4 asleep going roughly 68 in a 50km/hr school zone in Musquodoboit Harbour at 6 am. Although you scared the living shit out of me by turning on your lights and siren as you approached me in the opposite lane. You effectively got the point across without slapping me with a big fine I cannot afford, by optioning to motion “slow down” from your driver’s seat and then going on your merry way. I know I shouldn’t have been going that fast, and from now on I will be sure to go the posted limit in that area for fear of slapping your generosity in the face. —Sleepy Commuter
