That'll wake you up

So this morning I was heading into work and I noticed a cop car behind me. Didn't really think much about it since I was only doing 72 (speed limit is 70). Until the &*(#! turned on his lights.

I was like "Crap…" and started to pull over. The cop then passed me and pulled over a semi ahead of me instead. Looking at the cop as I passed, I realized it was my dad.

Thanks, Pop!

hahaha!

That's pretty good; and that's one way to get your heart going in the morning.

Heh that's good Robb!

My brother has done that to me a couple times.

One time he was behind on some backroads and called my cell. He tells me he's behind me, that my tags are expired, and to speed the hell up because he wants to get home.

He also pulled my mom over in a speed trap last year, which was funny.

My brother-in-law pulled me over once too.

I guess it is ok to break the law if your family is in law enforcement? :snark:

sadly i got pulled over on my drivers test, by my scout master (State Patrol) to wish me luck on it. NO I did not think it was as funny as he and the tester did.

I had a customer pull me over once just so he could show me his new Remington 700 Ubertactical Countersniper Boomstick.

I was understandably less than amused.

Discussing this in more detail with my father, he was bummed he didn't realize it was me otherwise he'd have skipped the truck and given me a ticket for not fixing his computer.

The proper way to return in kind would be to take a dozen doughnuts over to his house, and then refuse to share them. :-)

I should add that it's disconcerting when you get pulled over and the officer gets out of his car and starts gesticulating wildly for you to get out and come over.

Before the "Hey, I know that guy," realization sinks in, especially...

That's awesome. Good thing you finally paid him back those 2Gs or that might have been your ass getting pulled over. ;^)
