Stopped by state trooper outside Decatur
I was driving home to Austin from Forestburg after visiting a friend of mine for Halloween. Crested a hill doing about 80 and the trooper was waiting on the other side. I got lit up immediately and pulled to the side of the highway. Turned on the dome light, rolled down windows, killed the engine, and got my DL, CHL and insurance ready. The trooper approached the car from passenger side and said he clocked me doing 80 in a 70. I handed him my IDs and insurance, and told him I had a CHL. He asked if I had my weapon with me, I answered yes. He then asked me where it was located and I told him. He said OK and handed back the CHL then asked where I was headed and that he would have to give me a ticket. All in All a very short, professional stop. While I'm not pleased about the ticket, I certainly deserved it. Traffic school here I come.
