"Pretty rare for an officer to be thanked when pulling a person over." Pfffft, lady you have no idea . . . Just a couple weeks ago, I was on my annual summer road trip when I got pulled over by an Oregon state trooper on Highway 95 for doing 101 mph in a 70. I apologized for my mistake, thinking it was safe and explained that I was trying to finish my planned route by 10 pm that night (I was on the road at 5:30 that morning). I then slowed down to 10 mph over the speed limit and, I kid you not, within 10 minutes of crossing into Idaho I was pulled over again -- this time, for doing 74 in a 65 downhill. Fortunately, this cop took pity on me (seeing that I had just been issued my first citation 30 minutes earlier), and let me off with a warning. I thanked him, shook hands, and went about my day -- though with significantly more trepidation than before. Oh, and there's a dog in my story too: apparently, a K-9 detected illegal drugs in my vehicle, and they spent at least ten minutes rummaging through it (I even had to help one of them pop the hood). The dog must have picked up on the residual scent of my brother's and his girlfriend's vapes from when I drove them to the movie theater a couple months before (I'm from California). Go figure.
