This past saturday we drove from TX to North MO - i drove for like 10 hrs until she kept nagging me to let her drive because she noticed that i was getting tired. Normally I would not let her drive in the dark cause she can't see that well and has a tendency to not watch her speed.
We were about 20 miles from our destination in an area where houses were like 1/4 mile from each other - . Posted limit was 50 - she was going 57 - because i constantly kept an eye on her speed knowing she normally does not -- so we pulled over near an intersection - she rolled down the window - as he approach (this was within 30 seconds of us pulling over -) our dog in the back seat started barking - he said you were going a little fast there and asked her to step out and go sit in the front passenger of the squad car -- she turned to me looking weird - i thought it was a weird request too, since i never heard or seen it being asked by a law enforcer - back seat i can understand, but front?? before she got out of our car -- i asked him "sir is that required and necessary, cause i never heard of being asked before" he got an attitude and said "yes and its up to me whether i want to or not" - only reason why i questioned him was because we were like in the middle of no where and i don't know if this guy was a bad cop or not - i was worried for her safety -- only reason why i could think of that would cause him to make that request was because of the dog barking - but i stopped him from barking after 3 barks -- they both stayed in the squad car for like 5 minutes and she got back into our car and told me he gave her a warning -- she said he asked her has she been drinking (which was a no), but smelled beer on his breath -- the trooper speed away first - about 5 miles later we saw another state trooper getting situated and was turning off his head lights preapring to catch a speeder -- we figured it was the same guy trying to catch us again -- if this was like near the city or something - i would of reported his butt - cause i don't think the way he handled the situation was right |
