Speed
limits
are
kind
of
like
the
15
drink
per
day
limit
on
the
Carnival
Cruise
line.
Is
it
annoying?
Sure,
but
at
some
point
you
recognize
that
limits
are
placed
on
people
to
ensure
public
safety.
As
nice
as
it
is
to
get
home
right
after
work,
going
20
miles
over
the
speed
limit
invites
cops
who
are
zealous
(or
need
to
meet
quota)
to
pull
you
over
and
wave
their
fingers
at
you.
Everyone
knows
this,
especially
lawyers.
That
didn’t
prevent
Sandra
Doorley
from
trying
to
“Do
you
know
who
I
am?”
her
way
out
of
a
traffic
violation.
Back
in
April
of
last
year,
we
covered
her
tantrum
and
subsequent
apology
for
her
behavior.
As
it
turns
out,
sorry
just
didn’t
cut
it.
Law.com
has
coverage:
New
York’s
prosecutorial
misconduct
watchdog
issued
its
long-awaited
first
public
adjudication
on
Tuesday,
announcing
that
Monroe
County
District
Attorney
Sandra
Doorley
has
agreed
that
she
should
be
censured
for
seeking
special
treatment
during
an
attempted
police
stop
for
speeding.Doorley
has
indicated
her
intent
to
retire,
according
to
the
determination
by
the
Commission
on
Prosecutorial
Conduct.
If
you
haven’t
seen
the
traffic
stop,
you
can
watch
the
cop
cam
footage
of
her
getting
indignant
about
being
told
she
can’t
go
55
in
a
35:
Hopefully
she
keeps
the
traffic
violations
to
a
minimum.
