    So I am on my second run after being upgraded from my trainers truck. I got pulled over for speeding in Indiana by a state trooper. (I wasn't speeding) he was a cool guy, young ex marine, I'm ex army, so we talked and bs'd. He Dot inspected me, took a good hour and gave me a warning for speeding and sent me on my way. About a mile later I realized I don't have my wallet. After calling several ISP numbers, I get his district and he called it in, he meet me at an exit to give it back.

    Not my brightest moment at all.

    So for everyone, remember your belongings when leaving a cop car.

    You're not the only one.

    I did that once when I was headed for home and I was sick, and lost lunch on the officer's boots.. and then left my wallet with him.. he pulled up at the house about 5 minutes behind me to return it.

    my heart sank when i realized i lost it, all my money, bank cards, comdata fuel card, all in there, and I was headed right into chicago. Not a fun fealing.

    But kinda pissed about my 67 in a 60 warning,, in my 62mph governed truck

    Exactly and there aren't that many hills in Indiana either. My guess is that he probably had it pointed in your direction and a fly or something flew past the gun and screwed up his radar:biggrin_25523:
