FULLERTON (KGTV) - A story that seems hard to believe claims a driver tried to use a Monopoly "Get Out of Jail Free" card during a traffic stop in Orange County.
It's actually true.
The Fullerton Police Department says a driver handed over the card after being pulled over recently forfailing to stop at a stop sign.
Police say the officer had a good laugh and reminded the driver that while creativity is appreciated, the card isn't exactly a legal defense.
The officer told the man to save it for a rainy day and went ahead and wrote him a $238 ticket.
