My parents and I get rides from friends and family to work almost everyday, and we dont just freeload off them for rides we help pay for gas and give them cash weekly. You cant just expect to get free rides without helping out with gas and cash for their effort in helping you out... One final thought, if you know your breaking the law and get caught then dont come on these forums bitchin and moaning that you got arrested, you were asking for it.
USCIS said when they issued the deferment guidelines that they would ignore any records in regards to driving without a license. If you are gonna get all 'legal' on us, then I guess we should immediately leave the country.

That being said, be careful everyone. In a lot of area they reuse the checkpoints, so try to avoid high drinking areas on holidays where there is known prior checkpoints. I got stopped once here in NY State but they only check registration and inspection and asked if I had been drinking. And yes generally suburbs are worse than inner cities. It is a pita to get arrested, and really stressful. So good luck.

The fallacies are strong with this one...

AALLEEXX, you fail to point out your age, your parents, your parents age, your location, and how far away from your work you are. Most important, you assume things; you assume that we wanna get rides for free, but worse, you assume that we have friends or family living close and that they would be able to provide the service (basically a taxi) for us. In my case, my closest friend lives 25 minutes away from me, which would make that person drive at least an hour to get to both our destinations.

'Bitchin and moaning' is what this forum is about, to share experiences and to post our opinions, no matter how absurd (like yours) they are...either case, the risk of getting deported also comes from coming out of your house and into the real world; then, why are YOU taking that risk?!?

He just told me to turn them on, gave me a ticket and told me to be safe, funny thing is that I used to work at a fast food place and he would come by and I remember giving him discounts since I figured he could been a dick and impounded the car. He was actually nice
I've gotten a fair share of nice cops but the other half have been docks and have put me in tough and stressful situations , thanks for sharing your experience!
