I'm gonna guess the automobile won that battle.

Buy the coffee's, do as you are told and pay attention. Don't wear good shoes, or clothes, bring hand sanitizer. Can be a very informative experience. Enjoy.....oh, and do not get in the back seat.

Which agency?

My advice….

…ask questions and interact. When you and the deputy encounter situations in the field, hypothesize what you might do and compare that to how the situation was actually handled. Consider the purpose of law enforcement (…and the liability we absorb to handle other people's problems), and think about your experience next time you have the opportunity to weigh in politically. Keep your head on a swivel (…you become a target as well the moment you get into that patrol car), be mindful of your distance/proximity to people you encounter and watch people's hands. Again, ask questions….and if you see something [that the deputy might've missed], say something. We miss stuff and make mistakes too. Lastly and most importantly, be prepared that, if shit hits the fan and that deputy gets injured and can't defend you, grab a gun and defend him/her. It has happened!!

Be safe and enjoy yourself.

So far as I know I have never blocked anyone. Never even had anyone act rudely here. Plus it's the internet. If someone really bugs you on the net maybe one should develop a skin. LOL.

I added her as a friend so we shall see if I can now display the photos.

No explorers Sedan? That's who wears the reflective vests to direct traffic, block streets, put/pick cones around here

We have them. In fact, one was on a ride along with us yesterday. We don't use them for the above stated purposes usually. All Deputies are issued reflective vests for traffic control, but those of us that are traffic trained have "TRAFFIC" lettering on our vests.

Stupid question. Are you not seeing her pics in quoted posts or in her original posts? She, like me, attaches her pic from her computer. The pic shows up in original post but doesn’t display in quoted posts.

Hey Sedan,

My temp registration and plate expired almost three weeks ago. I did a transfer so I could keep my plate number. I've been checking the DMV website daily and today it finally shows the 2022 and not the 2019. I just removed the temp plate and put on the actual plate although I don't have the registration sticker or paper yet. I hated driving with an expired temp, but now I'm wondering which is worse; the expired temp plate or the valid plate without the sticker and paper registration. I guess either way, it screams pull me over. Thoughts? Should I put the temp back on until I get the paper?

I'm sure it's not a biggie, I still have his mini badge in my wallet and PBA cards from him and also NJ.

Thanks!

I would just put the valid plate on. The temporary plates grab my attention more. Plus, when we run the plate it'll show valid anyway.
