Cool LEO story
On my way to Funfest a few weeks ago and stopped at a traffic signal in Henderson, In. Leo pulls up next to me and looks over and says he likes my plate (UD LUSE). Asked him if he wanted to race and he laughed and says "No cause I'd probably be embarrassed"
Thought that was pretty

Another Cool Leo Story
Getting onto 161 here in Dallas, coming onto the on Ramp doing a little over seventy, I see a Leo on Motorcycle sitting in the Median. I jab the brakes, but his lights come on. There is a mini van behind me with a blond in it, and she pulls over too. In my head im thinking "Why in the world would this Soccer mom pool over, doesnt she see im drving a vette? The Leo's after me for sure". Well the Leo gets off his scooter, and walks by the van, tells her something, and walks up to me. Then the most odd thing happend.... He said, "i didnt get you, thank you for pulling over though, and to move along. " Well, to say the least i was very surprised, and went to the nearest gas station, and bought a lotery ticket!

Most are just like the rest of us (guys). Like beer, beautiful women and fast cars. There are d#ckheads walking around in all kind of jobs, they just draw the most attention.

Well said. There are plenty of LEO's that you will never have the good fortune of meeting. Yes, we have our small percentage of guys that shouldn't be cops. 18+ years for me and I am proud to say that I have had a lot more people say THANK YOU than I have had say D#CKHEAD.

You didn't get the MILF's phone #? I guess that LEO scared you out of your mind!! 
There are a lot of cool ones... think about it... most of the people you are going to stop are NOT going to be happy you gave them a ticket... The crap you get is going to make you a bit crabby as well at times...
I've had my share of tickets but being an a$$ will get you nowhere when you are pulled over... However, that doesn't prevent me from being mad at myself for getting stopped in the first place!!
Yes Officer, I was being a dumba$$... Thanks for the ticket!!
In your case, you were being a good guy and he was being a good guy back... cool!!
