A few times a day I unintentionally break the law I would say. Since I am always driving and no one actually drives the speed limit, that would be a constant one. Sometimes I roll the dice and don’t wear a seatbelt if I am going somewhere close, so there is that. Using cell phone while driving…um yeah almost everyday, usually just to play music or get directions. I have gotten better about using voice commands for most of this though.
Don’t even get my started about taxes, there is a reason I do them myself. Online gambling….it doesn’t count if it is crypto right? Copyright infringement, probably everyday I teach or at least every week, a good teacher is a good thief they say….I don’t think it should count if it is for the kids??

I have not updated my driver’s license address since I moved three years ago, which technically is a crime. Sharing Medication….not all the time, but not never. Jaywalking is practically a sport for me; I almost never use crosswalks.
How do I get away with all of this lawbreaking, well I do my homework of course! Here are ten of my favorite Netflix crime and punishment television series.
