Re: First LEO encounter with CHL

A few miles outisde of Hondo around 11 p.m. I just crested a hill when BAM radar went off 74 in a 65. I looked at the oncoming traffic as I wizzed by DPS going other way, I tapped the brakes to cut off the cruise control and I look in the mirror to see if he is going to turn around. Sure enough he turns on his signal so I pull to the shoulder and wait for him to find a turn around and come and get me. About 30-45 seconds later he pulled up behind me and by then I had the interior lights on windows down and all of my paperwork out ready for him. Well he comes up on the passenger side window so I roll it down and as I hand him my stuff he askes if I had a radar and I said yes. He looks over my stuff and tells me his going to give my a citation for my speed and hands me my stuff and goes back to do the write up. He returns explains the ticket and I am on my way. This was a pretty good stop minus the ticket but what I thought was weird is he never asked where my weapon was and before he even ran my information told me he was going to cite me. I was hoping that since I pulled over ASAP and didnt keeping going plus my CHL was going to get me out of it but :nono: Oh well next time I will remember to SLOW DOWN!!!
Most LEO's will write you a ticket if you have a radar detector where they might have otherwise let you off with a warning. They figure you are trying to beat the system, so they take joy in knowing they beat your attempt to defeat them.
