Sharpshooter
I was pulled over this weekend for passing a vehicle on the street. I was told that I couldn't break the speed limit to pass a vehicle. I actually verbalized what came into my brain, and reminded him that if that was the case, why do driving instructors for drivers education tell us that we need to double our speed to effectively pass a vehicle. I then sat and waited while he ran my plates, my LTCH and everything else. One of the Officers that I work with in a neighboring town overheard the radio traffic and gave the Barney a call on the radio. The Officer that I was pulled over by came back to the truck and said don't pass people in town anymore. It was a dotted white line and the traffic laws state that you can pass a vehicle in your lane of travel on a dotted white line or a country road, but I let it go at a Thank You and Drove Off. He never once asked me to show him my weapons or anything else and he was very respectful about the whole moment. He also didn't do the "Oh, you have a gun, I'm going to search your vehicle" thing...
