Figured I would throw in my couple of stories. I have been pulled over many of times from having a lead foot. Everything from running red (in my opinion yellowish orange) lights to reckless driving in previous cars.
Specifically with the Jeep:
I came to a four way stop, saw the cop, stopped. Let another car go through the intersection, then proceeded through. The cop told me I ran the stop sign and wrote me a ticket. :doh:
This next one was even better. I was headed to Skirmish house to replace my broken ball joint which was causing my vehicle to death wobble every once in a while. As i was headed there it happened on a back road (35 mph speed limit) I slowed down to about 15mph to get the wobble to go away. Henderson Police light me up, so I pulled over. Now in Henderson, they have some rule where they require two cops present before they can approach the vehicle. So now we wait for the second one to show up.
Cop walks up to me, I hand them my information, explain I carry a concealed firearm in the car and I keep my hands on the wheel. The cop flips out, What the hell are you doing slamming on your breaks in the middle of the street. I explained to him my jeep had a broken piece that needed fix causing it to shake violently if I hit a bump too hard. He gave me a dumbfounded look, apparently he had never heard the term death wobble. His next statement " Why the hell are you driving it then" Well I am taking it to get it fixed.
He hands me back my paperwork and leaves. Didn't say anything, no you can go no nothing. Just left. :thinking:
Looking back now It was worth a few laughs. The fun of having cops with nothing better to do out in Henderson. :standing wave:
