This happened about 15 years ago. Just wondering. I know you guys were not there.
I got off the Int. State onto a State Rd. My wife is behind me all the way. We didn't pass a LEO or have one pass us. Not speeding, drunk, ect. After we got onto the St. RD. We had to stop for a semi to turn into a truck stop, when he was gone we started moving again. Didn't even get 20ft when a LEO that was behind the car behind my wife. (Semi-me-wife-car-LEO) turned on his lights. We all pull to the side of the road to get out of his way, but he pulled up behind me. My wife pulled over behind him and had her window down. She heard him run my plate before he got out. So he knows that the plate belongs on a 75 Chevy C10 Red/White. I have had this plate for about 5 years at this time, most of it on this truck. He walks up and asked if I knew why he pulled me over, I said "no". He then told me I had a car plate on my truck. Now, he ran the plate before he got out so he knows that it goes to this truck. He took all my info, ran it, and said he had never seen a personalized plate on a truck before. Now he must not have been looking very hard.
Why would a LEO run a plate, know it goes on the truck, then tell me it didn't? Also how did he see my plate that far back?
I also found out later that someone else got pulled over there and the first thing the LEO said was " Why did you get off here?" The guy lives about 1 mile from that exit. He was also driving a car the was reported stolen. At that time he ran a Saturn dealership and they had a car missing. They checked all the other dealerships under the same owner and didn't find it. So a report was made, the car was found at one of the dealers they checked later. He picked it up and was taking it back to his, be had not called the police about finding the car because it was so late when they found it.
