Thank you for the birthday wishes! Some cops were definitely not cool but many were. We always have to play the hand we're dealt.

Happy birthday Stephen! I still love reading your stories and that one might be my favorite. Good stuff.

From Ed Niles...
An addendum from Ed Niles:
"Reminds me of the time that the FOC had a group (“Ride’n’Drive”) going to Las Vegas. We got caught in a road block after the eye in the sky spotted us, and the first one to whom the officer spoke was Walt McCune, who flashed his LAPD sergeant’s badge. Next in line was Bruce Sand, who showed his Sheriff’s Reserve badge. Turning red, the officer went back to poor Dan Ward, and said, “I suppose you’re a [expletive deleted] cop, too!”
Proving that cops are human, we too got off with a warning.
Keep on keepin’ on with the great tales. Ed"

I'm not surprised as Ed imported or owned many of the So Cal Ferraris--often several times over.
