    Hi EZ, I steered with my knees all the time. How else can you eat jelly beans, talk on the CB radio and drive at the same time?

    most of my roadside inspections are random....really random.

    i'll be on my way driving and a trooper coming north bound just turns into the median and stops me?! that's usually how it works... a good way to get them on your side right away is to drop your window down and have your logs outside of the window.. always do this lol. generally helps the situation. although, i do ask everytime, officer did i do something wrong? almost every response are long these lines...

    "WELL, JUST WANTED TO SEE YOUR LOGS REALLY QUICK AND IF THOSE ARE GOOD, I"ll LET YOU ON YOUR WAY BUT... JUST A RANDOM ROADSIDE INSPECTION NOW, YA GIVE ME YOUR LOGS ALREADY! BEFORE I EVEN ASKED" /doh!! lol

    As in pulled over on the side of the road?

    -Speeding. Guilty.
    -Speeding in a construction zone (he was wrong, let me go).
    -On a no truck route in a school zone apparently. Told him I didn't see any signs because I was too busy watching for the kids...he let me go.
    -Cop thought I was over 12 wide. I wasn't. Let me go
    -Speeding. Not Guilty.
    -Speeding. He lied. I wasn't. Still before the courts.
    -Cell phone. Still before the courts.
