Re: Got stopped - TRIED to inform - ignored

I got stopped by DPS on my way to Texarkana and into Arkansas to visit family in October of last year. Same deal. I was speeding (speed limit was 75 mph, my cruise control was set at about 82 or 83). It was right in that range. Officer was off on the right shoulder camped out and I saw him turn his lights on and point with his finger to pull over.

I immediately pulled over and stopped, and got my wallet out and set it in the front cupholder between the seats. He approached my passenger window and asked for my license. I pulled both my LTC and drivers license and gave them to him as a "stack" of cards, with my license on top. He looked at the LTC on the bottom, tapped them both on the window frame and gave me my LTC back. He said nothing about my firearm or wanted any further information about it.

He went back to his car and came back a few minutes later and asked me how often I travel this way. I told him not often, I'm just visiting some family up near Hot Springs, and he let me off with a signed warning. That was that.

Do what needs to be done and give the information needed, but if he doesn't need anything else, leave it alone. No need to call any further attention to yourself or press further.
