Sometimes this doesn't work out like I would like it to... I saw getting the sticker as a good way to avoid the kind of BS that always gets me in trouble, so I got it as soon as I took the course... Man can I relate to that statement. I got lite up here in Lumb.,(in my truck) I put my blinker on and proceeded to the place of business that I was going to in the first place. He followed me in, I had no idea as to why he was stopping me. He got my license & ins. and ask if I still lived at the address on my license. I was already pissed because he had yet to tell me why I had been stopped so I politely told him that yes I still lived there and had been living there longer than he had been alive. Well, he appologised for stopping me and admitted that he had stopped me because he misread my registration date. The truck was 4 months old. Then, he ask if I worked at the place of business where I had stopped. At this point I'm aggravated and told him "Officer, that is none of your business and if you will excuse me, I'm going in to take care of what I came here for, you have a good day. I locked my truck and walked off.And that's how I met Bill..............
