I have had about all of them. Good and bad and interesting. Worst one was about 15 years ago. My brother and I had taken out a boat owned by my dads business and failed to see that the trailer tabs had expired until that night. We were heading from tacoma to his place in Purdy. I was hauling the boat with a beat up pick up while he was following me in a used pontiac firebird he had just bought. He warned me that a few weeks ago he had a run in with a state trooper that pulled his 65 mustang over at 2 am for excessive exhaust. When he pointed out that the officers car was kicking out more, the officer lost it. He warned me he definitely did not want to run into him agian. Well, fate has it that the officer and a trainee pull me over for the tabs. My brother stops behind me and immediately all attention is on him. The officer leaves me behind and starts going over my brothers car with a fine tooth, finally writing me a small ticket for the tabs and my brother one twice as steep because he claimed he could see a tread bar one tire. Didn't matter that my truck was litterally falling apart with defective turn signals, bald tires, and headlights that would flicker on an off. My brother was so pissed of he stated he would refuse to sign the ticket and would like to be transported to the station so he could deal with the sargent in charge. At that, the officer swung him around, shoved the night stick up against the back of his neck and then looked over at me and said, "Wow, is your brother stupid. It's a long way to the station. If you love him, I suggest you start begging him to sign this ticket." I have no doubt he was serious and started to beg. In the end he signed the ticket. We filed a complaint and they actually had a formal hearing, but I don't think they ever told us the outcome.

One of the more interesting involves Deputy Mundell, who just died. His mom and My dad were great freinds, so I knew who he was by name, but that was it. Well, one day I went to check on a house were buying. As I pull up, Mundell is getting up off the ground and then pulls up a handcuffed guy. Seems a neighbor saw something and called it in. When Mundell walked up to the house the guy ran out and did a flying tackle at him. Mundell had caught him mid-air, swung him around and pinned him. At his memorial they kept saying he was a magnet for stuff. Guess it was true.
