Just-In-Time: not only for compilers.

Sean Leach was pulled over in his 1992 Mazda 626 for an expired registration. The officer that pulled him over, Jason Zier, proceeded to write Leach a ticket, but not before Leach called a friend to help him re-register his 626 online, after hearing that his vehicle would be towed away. By the time Zier had finished writing the ticket, the vehicle was registered again. Zier's patrol car's computer confirmed that the car was legally on the roads. Although Leach's speed and wit didn't help him avoid a ticket, but it did let him drive away without being towed. The lesson here, everyone, is twofold; first, never procrastinate when it comes to renewing your vehicle registration, and secondly, never underestimate the value of your mobile connectedness with the world.
