Is it only illegal if you get caught?

How often do you find yourself running late? When you do, how often do you forget things or take chances because you’re late? I would often forget specific books when I slept in for school.

How not to roll your vehicle…101

We’ve all made mistakes in our lives and in most cases, they were minor enough that we could get over them in a short period of time. I was brought up to respect other people and not to do things that would inconvenience other people. Were you brought up the same way? When I make…

One of the slowest police chases ever

Tag; you’re it. Remember when you were a kid and ran around your yard, the park or even the neighbourhood playing a game of tag? Wasn’t that fun? You would chase your friends until you caught them. Luckily for many people, the game of “tag” stops before you drive. When a driver has broken the…
