I don’t know either , but Deputy and Dad knew each other...
I grew up in a time that the consequences from my parents was greater than that of the Police.
Drinking beers etc, “Pour them out and go home”
Speeding? “Just pay more attention”
Setting aside my parents.
I was pulled over once for “Hugging the double yellow line” that is what he said. I never even crossed or even drove over my side of the line. I had this habit of driving with my left tires within inches of my side for miles on end. He apparently didn’t like that. Later, I would do the same thing at speed on winding back roads with the right side. Just to get a feel for where the edge of the pavement was. That scared the crap out of my passengers.
