I am…

On october 8, 2009, i was driving by carson beach, located in south boston, ma, trying to find something to eat with a friend. I have seen that i was going only 28 mph's with no cars ahead of me. However, i knew the area was near the south boston state police headquarters, and i did not want any relations with a speeding ticket. I…
