Re: Project Never Ends
Still got oil leaks we are trying to solve. Found one last night we think was the distributor. Got more to find it appears.
Left jeremy's shop around 10pm last night. Had my 8yr old in pass seat asleep. 5 miles or so down the road I pass a cop in the median with his lights off. Shortly after I pass I see his headlights go on, not long after I see multi colored lights. WAHOO.
When I passed him I looked down and saw 60 on my speedo, speed limit 55.
He walks up to truck, I had my wallet in hand, and reg already. He said "You didn't do anything wrong, reason I pulled you over was your license plate light is out."
WTF.....
So I proceed to hand him reg. license. He said he would go check everything out and if it checked out, send me on my way.
I then remembered the tabs expired shortly after the engine got removed 2 months ago, and for some reason the BMV gave me new plates, which were of course at home with the current reg.
So I explain that to him first, figure best to tell now then him to find out on his own. Tell him truck just got going again, etc.
He comes back and said the reg didn't match the plate (realized I gave him reg. from 2002 or something, which of course didn't match last years plate. The plate on truck was not in the system at all. He asked me if I had the right plates, which I did. Explained I had ordered custom plates the BMV gave me new plates, so it was all confusing.
He just mentioned other cops might not be so nice and could tow it, and asked if I was going to get the right plate put on and said have a nice day.
Honestly so far of the maybe 3 times I have been pulled over in last 7 years, all Indiana cops have been very civil I cant complain.
