    Pulled around back with a stepdeck of pvc pipe. The load was a preload and the step portion had nowhere to run a belly wrap. The coop heading into missery did not take kindly to the pipe nearly touching the headache rack.

    pushed the pipe back in and threw 2 more straps then left with a warning. Got to destination and that #### pipe was back out again.

    That would be the Arkansas highway patrol. Lol
    To say he was a card carrying clan member is pretty unfair. By your own admittance the mudflaps were gone. I also realize you just lost them but gone is gone

    First time? Paperwork inspection. She was waiting before a bridge. As I came up to it she reached inside her car and turned on the lights and motioned for me to the shoulder. At the end of it all I was sitting there after she told me I could go but I actually couldn't. She never gave me my license back. I waited in my truck until she realized it and came back to my truck.

    Second time, yeah it was my fault. 63,000 lbs over weight on a road. Didn't see the little weight limit sign. Still my fault. $50 fine. The cop was sympathetic to my dilemma and went easy on me.

    Third time. Speeding. 60 in a 55. They were pulling over a lot of trucks that day. When he came to the window he said I am giving you a paperwork inspection as well. If I find a violation in your paperwork you are also getting a speeding ticket. I said I am ok with that, everything in my book is legal and up to date. Got off with a warning.

    The ones I got I deserved and I am lucky I haven't got anymore but three times in 9 years ain't bad.

    Other than the dui in my pick up 16 years ago nothin to dramatic ...I don't speed and keep my truck and trailer clean and well maintained ...did get pulled over a few weeks ago by Tex DPS guy on some kinda fishing trip but after he saw I'm not an outlaw he quickly got bored and gave a verbal on my dot tape on my ICC bumper which I promptly got fixed ....I really think the appearance of the equipment and the driver goes a long way cause I rarely inspected.
