That was the third set that got pulled off from backing up off road. After I showed the leo the two sets in the bed, is when I think I got out of the ticket.
I did solve the problem flaps though. I welded a piece of steel angle behind each wheel near the back of the bed on the bumper frame, and mounted the flaps to that. So now, even if the flaps get pushed all the way forward, they don't touch the wheels. Looks a little different from all the other dually's, but it solved that problem for good.

'And notice what Dan said about it when he did notify...(Didn't bat an eye)

I find that to be the norm these days from Law Enforcement...And thats ok...'

Well, to be fair, so far its 50/50. Had a dps officer pull me over for no mud flaps. After I showed him the licenses, he asked where it was at, and I told him between the seat and console. He ordered me out of the truck, and to stand in front of his car. He took my hk and emptied it into the seat, and I mean unloaded the whole mag, and left it locked back.
After I got a lecture about mud flaps, he instructed me not to get in my vehicle until he pulls away.
Yeah, he was arrogant, cocky, and had no personality, but he was young and full of himself. But I only got a verbal warning, probably because of my cool demeanor, and likable personality.

I wish I could leave my wallet on my dresser when I'm bouncing around on the tractor all day. But I never leave home without it. If there ever is a problem, I want the leo to know upfront whats up.
Now don't get me wrong, if I'm shooting off the back porch, I might not have my wallet with me, but I do anywhere else.

Sorry, should have clarified that I was on my easement road, so was on private property, just not mine. Our property lines are to the middle of the road, with a 30' easement.

Had the occasion to call for a sheriff to respond out to my property Saturday.
About a 45 min response time out in my neck of the woods.
Was professional and personable. When he got around to writing up the report he asked for i.d., so i gave him both the DL and CHL, and without batting an eye he handed the CHL back and used the DL for the information on his report.
Good encounter all round.
