So yesterday was my Tysabri infusion. I usually drive myself and am OK. I have been really tired of late, still trying to bounce back from being sick.
After the infusion, we left. My 89 year old father came with me this time. He wanted to keep me company, since he said I always keep him company when he is at hospital. Reaaly sweet and probably why no ticket.
I had to go thru one school zone and commented to Dad about slowing down since school letting out. A few minutes later, a second school zone. I saw the lights flashing, but it didn't register. I even saw the police car. Not only did I not slow down, I was 8mph over normal limit.
The officer was young. He told me the violation is an automatic suspension of liscense. He saw Dad, who happened to have WWII service hat on. I guess he didn't want Dad to loose his rides, as he said he would run information and if no prior stops, would just issue verbal warning.
I know I was zoned out and really scared myself. Thankfully no children were around by the school. I guess from this point, when feeling this wiped out, I shouldn't drive far. Hospital is 45 minutes away. I am back to wondering if I should keep driving at all.
