I'm getting rid of my drivers license....

I wanted to tell this story....

My Taiwanese neighbor, a woman in her late 40s, reported a while back:

"I'm driving down the road on my motorcycle and a policeman stops me."
"What happened?"
"I went through a red light."
"Really?"
"Oh yes, I always do."
"I see. And then?"
"He asked for my license. So I told him I had no license. He told me that I was lucky I didn't have a license. If I had possessed a license, he would have had to fine me NT$6,000."
*sound of jaw hitting the floor* "So what happened?"
"Nothing. He said that without a license, there was nothing he could do. So he sent me on my way."

*sigh*

Huh, never thought of that. I'm still kind of happy that I got mine anyhow.
