Punctuation, Capitalization, Paragraph.

Let's see, you were driving without an endorsment, after dark, got off the bike and went into a bar........ Where do you live so I can avoid you.

The quote "endorsment, after dark" is a single statement. Itis not separated by a comma. Well, maybe it was not a quote. Hold on you used an ellipsis. An ellipsis is only used when omitting words from a quote. When you use an ellipsis itis only three. It is not the eight you used. Oh, by the way you misspelled the word endorsement.
I would agree correct punctuation would of made his question easier to read. When did this forum become an English class? Why did you feel a need to attack his grammar? Not everyone has an EnglishDegree. Therefore, they should not be expected to have prefect grammar.
Ur rite I diad mispl endrsmnt.

Heywouldjablowme?
Why are you mad now? I was merely helping you out. Don't dish it out if you can't take it.

Talk to a lawyer. If you werent stopped and in the bar when you were confronted there might be a legal loop hole. It sucks you got caught and the law is the law but people get out of violations all the time. Who knows. there might also be a should must or may clause in the law somewhere.A lawyer might be able to give you good advise or help you with a plea. Id rather give my money to a lawyer than the courts any day. It might cost you but it allows you to learn from your mistakes and give you a second chance.

Doesn't one have to show a temporary endorsement to get motorcycle insurance? Hmmm, then it would be no insurance, driving w/o a license, riding after dark and parked at a bar....that is just plain stupid. Let everyone know when you'll be out riding again so we can stay off the roads!!!!

At least the "lawman" didn't wait for you to get back on the bike after a couple of beers, you would really have had a bad day.
