My wife and I picked her up from her kindergarten class friday afternoon, and because of some road construction, ended up in a part of town I had never been. Next thing I know the sirens and flashing lights are right behind me. I pull over wondering whats going on. The LEO comes to my window and very rudely informs me I'm going 35mph in a school zone. I had no idea, but ok, heres my license & insurance. Upon returning to my vehicle, he asks me if I have my weapon. I reply yes I do, He starts screaming at me that I am supposed to show my CHL to him to which I reply I know that, but in all of my confusion over the traffic stop, I simply forgot. He them tells me he can take me to jail over this. Now granted I was in the wrong, but this 3:30 on a friday afternoon and it is me, my wife, and my grandaughter in the car, and this guy is out of control. He had me sign the speeding ticket & then just walked back to his car and took off. Needless to say, I had some explaining to do to not only my grand daughter, but to my son and his wife as well! Moral of this story: Don't forget to show your CHL to an LEO!
