Tonight I took my roadster and drove over to the next town because my Son Don's band was playing there and I wanted to see him and maybe run into my old GF who goes to all his gigs when he plays at that place. I had open headers and made the whole trip with zero problems.
I took my car back to the shop and put it away for the night and Dan came in from his gig and Don did also, so we sat around and shot the breeze for a while, then they left to go get some dinner while I got in my daily driver and started home. As I pulled out of our parking lot (about 12.30 am) I saw car headlights way down the road but I pulled out in front of him and started the drive up the road from the shop.
All of a sudden I see these flashing lights coming up on me at high speed so I pulled over, thinking he was heading for some emergency. Nope, it was me he was after. I opened my door but stayed inside, and handed him my license. He said "I was just wondering what you were doing down there at this time of night ?" I explained my shop was there and my Sons and I were just leaving.
He looked at my license and handed it back and said "Have a nice night." I thanked him for keeping an eye on the area, and he was nice about it all. But it sure is weird to just get pulled over when you know you haven't done anything ! Wonder if it would have gone the same way if I was in my roadster with open headers ?
