Calling Office from Police Parking Lot

  • Calling Office from Police Parking Lot

  • A short, ironic anecdote from the "random Irony department" regarding safe driving.
  • The Incident

    • While driving to lunch, I realized I had forgotten to call my office to see if there was anything I needed to pick up.
    • Knowing that it is unsafe (and illegal) to use a cell phone while driving, I decided to pull off into the very next parking lot to make the call.
    • After parking and dialing, I looked around and realized that the lot I had pulled into belonged directly to the local police department.
    • I was able to safely make my call surrounded by police cruisers.
