Got pulled over for speeding this evening.
The officer identified himself and let me know that he had me at 42 in a 30 back where the speed limit reduces coming into town. He then asked for my license. I didn't have it on me, so I offered my name and DOB. He said he'd be right back.
He returned shortly, pointed to my hat and began,"Due to your affiliation with INGO..."
Now I know what you're all thinking, this just got interesting, didn't it? I'll admit it, I clenched up a bit bracing for the impending taser barbs.
But he continued (without dramatic pause or evil laugh, which was good), "...I'm not going to ticket you."
Nice! Very cool use of discretion, sir.
We traded user names and shook hands. Nicely played, Socomike, good to meet you!
Stay safe out there (and I'll slow down).
