A UC, San Diego physicist used the math of angular versus linear velocity to get out of a $400 traffic ticket for allegedly failing to stop at a stop sign. It’s the first time his $1000,000 education has paid off.
The judge ruled in his favor so he didn’t have to pay the fine, but let the record show that that the accused is such a nerd.
To equate the math with geometric terms, the stop sign was an octagon, the policeman’s badge a hexagon, and the physicist: a perfect square.
His ability to accurately do the practical math shows that he is just as good at word problems as he probably is bad with girl problems.
