Think of it this way, if you do, and you get pulled over, all you'll have to do is start apologizing profusely for the wrongdoings of your family before you and all will be forgiven. Remember though, you won't have a teleprompter to guide you in your dribble, so study-up, use "Let's be clear" a lot, and don't ever look straight at the officer.... Keep looking right and left over and over. Should be fine.
