So i had my truck searched on friday

Heading up to Beloit Wisconsin friday morning to get my load off, get reloaded and get headed home, my co-driver and i pull over to double check the local directions, and whatnot before we get to our exit, as we're taking off an IL state trooper pulls up in front of us with his lights on.

Asking us all these weird questions in a fast manner, as if trying to catch us in a lie. Telling us he can make our lives hell if we don't cooperate, he can write us so many tickets we won't be able to see straight, and on top of it he said he would write the company a ticket, never did tell us why.

He asked numerous times why we pulled over, and i told him i had pulled over to double check our directions, and to do a load check. He asked why i would do a load check when i'm only 4 miles from where i need to be, my reply was becuase i check my load EVERY time i stop, and that alot can go wrong in four miles... Most accidents actually occur within 10 miles of the pickup-drop point. He thought i was getting smart. Asks if we've ever been to jail before, we tell him (I never have, but my co-driver was arrested for something when he was like 16-17, he's 35 now) so we tell him the truth, he comes back and tells me that i lied to him, and that i had been arrested before (Wtf?) no, actually i never have. So he asks us for the 17th time "What do you have in the truck, anything i should no about?" We both reply no.

So they take our log-books and licenses back to the car and we sit there for a good half an hour, finally he comes back and asks us to follow him up to the flying hook in south beloit, so we comply. We follow him up there and park where he asks us to, and then he goes on to explain that we were waiting for the "Dogs".. The dogs i ask? "Yes, the dogs." he said they had called some dogs to sniff around the truck, and if the dogs diddn't find anything we would be free to go, and that he could care less about any other violations he might have seen as long as we are being honest about not having anything in the truck.... Uh, ok.. whatever.

Needless to say, they found nothing, and it was quite satisfying, but it did ruin about 3 hours of my day on a friday (ofcourse, as i was trying to get home)...No big deal, im sure they had some weird reason for doing what they did, just doing their job, so i really try not to get upset about such things, but what the hell? Out of nowhere ... I'm still not sure why he was so convinced that we had something.

Has this ever happened to anyone else? I can see if i blew a scale, or did something really stupid, but all we did was pull over for a minute ... Safer than missing a turn or something, y'know?
