* On the phone with her son. (illegal in NY)
* Going with the flow of traffic.
* She’s a local lawmaker.
* On her way to a job interview.
* On her way to take her son to parties.
* If she didn’t go with the flow of traffic, other drivers would honk at her.
* She started crying.
* She wailed that the fines were too expensive.
* Said she suffered from PTSD.
* Appeared to feign a panic attack while appearing to hyperventilate and then calmly answered her phone.
* Accused officer of singling her out.
* Said she missed the job interview.
* Claimed cop was ruining her career.
* Said the officer made her feel unsafe.
* “I work 24 hours a day just to support my family."
* Calls assistant during the call to see if her schedule is clear for court date.
New York deserves representatives like this.
