*Driving home from running some errands.*

Me: Hmm... thats strange. That cop is following me from awfully far back. I wonder what that's about.

Katy: Do you think he's running our plates?

Me: You'd think he'd get closer to read it, but still it seems fishy.

*I pull into a lane that people normally use for turning right, but I need it because the entrance to my parking lot is coming up.*

Me: Ah, the cop's signalling that he's turning right. I was just being paranoid.

*After I clear the intersection, the signal goes off and the turn is aborted.*

Me: Yup... we're being followed. We weren't speeding. Do you think we have a tail light out or something?

*I pull into the parking lot. The lights come on and the cop pulls in behind me.*

Turns out our tags were expired. You don't have to pay for them, but you *do* have to click on some things to renew them for some reason that I still don't understand. Historically we've always gotten a notice in the mail, but not so this time around. Fortunately, I got off with a warning, would've been a $495 ticket otherwise.

If you're an Ontario resident, maybe check on that if you haven't.
