I didn’t use my turn signal on an off ramp, because I wasn’t sure which way I was going to turn. I was checking gas prices at the gas stations signs. Highway Patrol pulls me over, another young punk they gave a gun and a badge to. Says he will write me a warning. But wants to search my car. This is in the middle of Iowa, or something. I said, “Nope, you will not search my car.” So guess what, he writes me a ticket. I used it to clean off my dipstick as I checked my oil when I got to the service station. What an a-hole.
There are certain communities around here I don’t like to drive through. If I ever had a flat, I’d have four cop cars swarm around me. They would only lift a lug nut if they wanted to accuse me of stealing it. They would not help with the flat, but instead use it as an excuse to try to coerce “consent” to search the car.
