He checked it and then gave my drivers' license back to me after his walk to and from the car.

Anyway. I am glad that they are doing this even though I was trying to figure out what I had done wrong to see the lights flashing. I am usually a slower driver than most.

Job well done anyway to the Sumter County Sheriff's Office or whatever LEO the officer tonight originated. I would not want my Dad George out there driving either.

Way to go Tal! A polite conversation between an upright citizen and an outstanding LEO doing his/her job. Too bad everyone can't deal with LEOs in as civil a manner.

Were you driving a car registered to your Dad?
