I did not get out of work until about 10:30 PM Friday night and proceeded to head directly home. It was overcast and rainy - T.S. Barry was pushing plenty of rainy weather my way. As I drove down the street that I live on (rural, paved, two lanes only), I saw a Sheriff's Car in the opposite lane of traffic slow as he passed me than bang a sharp u-turn in the middle of the road. I am thinking .. wtf??!! I am not doing anything even remotely out of the ordinary and my speed is EXACTLY at the limit 35 MPH.
So I pass by my house seeing the he has accelerated to catch to me, so I pull out of his way into a public lot in case I am not the object of his pursuit. The police car proceeds to pull in behind me and turn on his lights. He places the spot light on my car and walks up asking the standard "gimme your license/registration." while starting up a session of 50 questions like: where are you from, where are you going, what business do you have out here .. that kinda shizit. Finally, after like 15 minutes he finally asks me, "Do you know why I pulled you over?"
One of my front headlights was out. :blink: I got read the riot act because I had a headlight out :mail-296:

I guess I can't bitch too bad, at the end of it he told me to get it fixed and didn't write me a ticket.
I respect all men and women in uniform, but enough of the macho bull@#$% lease:
