Let’s Say You Get A Ticket...

Let’s say you get a ticket (hypothetically speaking of course).  And not just any ticket.  A really stupid ticket.  If you had gotten a ticket for expired plates, obviously money was lacking to register it: excusable.  Maybe you got caught going a tiny bit to fast on a stupid road with a stupid limit like 25 when it should be 45 (Pony Express Parkway): a little bit excusable.  Let’s say though that you ticket is for NOT WEARING YOUR SEATBELT.  I’m struggling to find an excuse for this one.  You buckle before you go.  Every time.  Easy as pie.

You might come home to this:

These are signs that read:

1. If you died in an accident because you weren’t  wearing your seatbelt, we would be super sad :(

2. Buckle up.  It’s the law.

3. Wear you seatbelt (awesome artwork by Jocelyn)

4.Don’t die in an accident please.  Please wear your seatbelt.  We love you.  Love McKayla

5. Seatbelts save lives.

 

No guilt trip.  Really.  And then... you may have to listen to your wife say (with a smile because she really does love you) that if you died BECAUSE you weren’t wearing your seatbelt, she would be very very angry.  And with that much anger in her heart there would be no way she would make it to the Celestial Kingdom.  So if you really want to be with her forever, you will wear you seatbelt.

Let’s be honest, folks, with a crazy wife like that who wouldn’t want to be with her forever??  Seriously.  Wear your seatbelt.
