Pulled over while waiting at a Red Light....(Long)
Hi,
I was pulled over this week waiting at a red light. A County Cop was passing me on the other side of the road while I sat behind 5 cars at this red light. As he passed I looked at him as he was checking me out. Now note, I was driving my Atomic Orange Coupe with the top off and windows down. Had my black Corvette cap on and sunglasses.
I watched in my rearview mirror as he made a U-Turn and went to the middle of the road just a bit behind me, (two lane road). When the light turn green, he got right behind me and put on his lights once we passed the green traffic light. Could not figure out what I did wrong. He came to my window as I was getting my paper work together. He was very polite as was I, and introduced himself. "Said he stopped me because as he passed he noticed my inspection sticker was dated 8 - 11. But did not see the one year exemption right above it" (which is larger than the inspection sticker)... He apologized and sent me on my way.... I said "I appreciated you doing your job officer."
Just think I was profiled for driving a Vette or because I looked at him when he passed me.
What do you guys think?
