I got another speeding ticket in France, it turns out. This
one came in the mail, after we returned, unlike the one I received on the road,
four years ago. Someone in Los Angeles with whom I share a first name received
the same, from the same town in France, just one day before I received mine,
although he recalled seeing a traffic camera go off.
I didn’t mention before, but on this trip my travel companion lost a tooth, a front tooth, while eating a croissant one morning in Alsace. A day or so later, someone here in Los Angeles with whom he shares a first name also lost a front tooth, while lunching in a deli. What’s up, with all that?
You’d think when something official is sent from one country to another, the sending entity would write it in the language of its destination, particularly when money’s demanded, with threats for late payment. But it was in French. A google search, however, indicated the person with whom I share a first name and I are not alone – a link in English is out there that says, in essence, if-you-received-one-of-these-here’s-where-to-pay-it.
