Some just never learn...

On patrol midnight shift yesterday, sitting in one of our favorite spots and seemed to be a pretty slow night so far, all that we had to do was crank music and count the points on the deer that wandered past our blacked out cruiser.
Unfortunately for one citizen he picked a bad place to punch it in a 30 MPH zone, i clocked him at 56MPH... he had just past our cruiser when i flicked the toggle and off we went to educate another member of the motoring public. We approach the vehicle and this conversation then occurs:
Obviously slow learner:  "here's my license and registration, oh and here we go!" *driver hands officer another document*

Amused Officer: " sir, this document states that you have just completed driver re-education training (required after accruing a certain amount of points on your license) just 5 hours ago?"

O.S.L: "uhhh...yea! i was hoping that since i just completed the course and showed i was...you know, a good driver that you would... give me a warning?"

A.O.: "Well sir what i can do for you, since you appear to be a slow learner, is warn you that if you do this again you will get another citation" *hands the information to me to return to the cruiser, i run his drivers license and registration and find he has at least 12 pages of various moving violations, then fill out a citation for speeding that includes another point on his license for this violation*

*A.O. hands the citation with a hefty fine and points to the driver*

O.S.L: "OH COMEON MAN CAN'T YOU JUST GIVE ME A BREAK?"

A.O. : "Sir, it is my opinion that if given a warning you will fail to take heed, and you will most likely just pay this one and continue on as normal, but i intend to write you citations every time i catch you speeding until my point is made."

O.S.L "I'LL SEE YOU IN COURT A**HOLE!"

A.O. : " I hope so... i get paid four hours of overtime every time i show up, now press hard, there are three copies. Have a great day and drive safe"

*driver speeds off*

A.O. looked at me and chuckled, and then back to our hideout we went, waiting for the next member of the motoring public in need of some correction.
