Today I got to experience my first ever DUI test!

I often turn off my headlights (leaving only the parking lights) if I'm the first car in line at a stoplight, to keep from blinding the cars waiting on the other side of the intersection (and I wish other people would do the same — especially people in tall SUVs and pickup trucks). Apparently, though, the police are not so impressed with my thoughtfulness. Tonight as the light turned green I turned my headlights on and started driving, only to have the car behind me turn his blue lights on. I pulled over once we were through the intersection, and I saw five other cop cars pull to a stop all around me. I'm always impressed when the police devote those kinds of resources to stopping me. It's kind of flattering.
