So after driving more than 1500 and within a mile from where were going to get off of the interestate, we get the opportunity to meet one of Kansas' Finest.
He couldn't have been more friendly.
He asks Jack if he knows why he's being pulled over.
Jack feigns ingnorance.
"85 in a 75, sir" replies the officer.
Jack is aghast.
"I had NO IDEA! We just got this car for our trip to Missouri and it just rides so smooth. I can't believe we were going that fast.
My mom decides to chime in.
"Yeah, I can't tell how fast we going either."
The officer quickly decides to give Jack a warning but has since he has made a stop, he still needs to run his information.
He quickly returns to our car and chats with my mom about new cars and the impending storm that this area is going to get.
Jack thanks him and we are on are way again.
It was a nice little break to catch but I think the only reason we didn't get a ticket is because Jack didn't let my mom put her bumper sticker on the back of the new car.
Which bumper sticker, you ask?
That would be the "Obama 2012" one that is still sitting back home in Santee.
rofl good idea! While it might get you a high five in NY, it prob wont in the midwest and Texas !
ReplyDeleteWorking for a law enforcement agency myself, I can niether confirm nor deny your assumption. But like you say John, intentional or not things happen for a reason. Too funny. The sticker will be waiting for her when you guys return.
ReplyDeleteI could have put it on my car for her while you were gone. Being in San Diego Santee is just down the street.
ReplyDelete85 mph??? The speed of light!! (on an island that is!!)
