Is it illegal to lie to a cop?

I have started speeding everywhere I go (not like I didn't do this before being massively pregnant). I am so freakin impatient that I cannot stand to be in the car any longer than I have to. Can you blame me, I'm stuck sitting upright without an accessible bathroom.
So driving to work last week, on one of the rare occasions that papa Rob & I didn't carpool, I was going a good 15mph over the speed limit when I swore I saw a cop behind me. My first thought (aside from shit, Rob is never going to let me live this down) was to pee my pants. That's right folks, I was going to pee my pants & tell the officer that my water broke. Thankfully for my poor upholstered seats it didn't come to that, because it wasn't even a cop that was behind me (guilty conscience or pregnancy delusions I guess), but don't think I stopped speeding or making sure I have a little pee "on reserve" before I get in the car...you know, just in case.

(PS Squishy, don't break the law, it's bad mmkay)

  1. A cop pulled me over one time for flashing my lights at oncoming drivers to warn them he was tagging speeders ahead of them. I lied and told him that I just had my headlights fixed and I was testing them out. I doubt he bought it, but I'm not sure that's something you can get a ticket for anyway... stupid Ohio cops.

  2. Speaking of Cops, didn't see the one on the PA turnpike last week going to Ohio. With a warning sign that they where taking photo's at a work site,the pic was kinda blurry but it was my car, so I paid the fine of $40.I'm sure they got another one this week when we went by again. I'm sure it was my mother telling me to slow down and smell the pekingese.

  3. Eric, I remember that, it was in Cinci right?
    Dad, so how many pekingeses did you stop to smell along the way?
