Neat! I was wondering how you where going to make this on topic.
Thought you would say you got stopped on your way to the LHS.
Cool scene!
Yep, though I’m glad they help protect us…I knew that nervous, “butterfly-in-the-stomach” feeling when I saw the red and blue lights in my rear view mirror and was pulled over for speeding in Georgia 2 years ago! Got a ticket too.
Very nice photo. What are your streets made of? They look good in the photo.
Uncle Buck…It has reached epidemic proportions!!!
So much for “Southern Hospitality”. [;)]
That’s the norm in my town where the law enforcement to citizen ratio is about 50 LE:1citizen. Yea, I know, I’m a little overobsessed [(-D][swg]
The cops can’t help but pull me over, I drive a red Camaro! (in real life) So, I decided to make a little scene on my layout where a little police car pulls over, you guessed it, a Camaro. [:-^]

very nice
Simon…those are Wather Cornerstone street system weathered with powdered white and black Tempra paints. Cliff, nice “Welcome to” sign.
Same cop different morning…
Those cops should be chasing the graffitti artists or the TRAIN RIDERS
That guy’s obviously a Yankee passing through, and he’s in a heap o’ trouble. [:D]

Hey maybe we should all just write to our Senators and have them give us a free pass for speeding, we could call ourselfs “Guest speeders”.
sorry I just had to say it.

nice pics…I had a broken speed-o-meter on an old Harley way back when…of course all i knew was full throttle in my younger years and as fate would have it got pulled over…the cop asked me how fast i was going and i told him “I don’t know” “lemme look at the ticket and i’ll tell you”…I thought the guy was gonna arrest me…got a ticket anyway…chuck
LOL, I did the same thing with a Trans Am. I own a real one as well.
Nice pics, man. That’ll teach that trucker to go tearin’ down the road past the texaco.
A few years back, I got VERY lucky. Was on my way home late one night, in a relatively quiet area of Fairfield, CA, but just where the speed limit dropped rapidly from 55 to 45 to 35. Sure enough, there is Officer Knievel on my tail.
I politely pulled into a safe location (no shoulders- ooops, would be considered a construction zone during the day, for double-the-ticket fun!) and waited. He came up, and asked the typical question, to which I responded something non-committal. He asked for the licence and reg., looked at it, then said that he had me for the speeding, and also for a light out (which I hadn’t noticed).
Then came out the most surprising words:
Officer: “Which do you want?”
Me: “Um, the headlights?”
Officer: “Good choice.”
He goes back, write me up a repair ticket, and hands it to me with two words which made my evening:
“Happy birthday.”
and walks back to his bike and departs.
Whew!
I don’t know if I’d call it my best b-day, but it was certainly memorable. [:)]

Quick Tip:
Never, never be rude to “Jaw-ja” (Georgia) cops!
One of my former co-workers did a stretch in Reidsville. That’s the prison where you can hear grown men crying!
