this might let them know what you're up to:



Sorry, the decal just came in and I had to put it on right away! I'll post another cleaner pic tomorrow!

At least this way, they get a hint as to why we "look a certain way, or drive like we do!"

I made the decal here: Yard Signs, Signs, Custom Signs Online | BuildASign

about $21 shipped, for 5 decals 6"x30" (I cut the edges to round the decals out, more like our tags under our posts)

enjoy!

Victor.

I wanna make one that has the vehicle information, that way I can write my mpg and my % over EPA. That would be really cool. The ones you got, could you write on them and then wipe it off with a cloth and white board eraser?

maybe with a dry erase marker, it would be possible I've got the scraps from rounding the edges, but no dry erase markers to test

Idk if I can even do this, I suck at this sort of thing. Doesn't mean I can't try though. And Yea I meant with a dry erase marker + dry erase marker remover.

You are speeding, running the red light, moving erratically to and fro or behaving in an unexpected manner on purpose just to support those brave men and women in law enforcement.

I was pulled over--let me think, twice in the Civic. The first time was on a dark night on the interstate; another red Civic blew past me, and then the cop came up on my tail, lights flashing. He let me go after realizing it was the wrong car. The second time was in town; one of the taillights was out and I got a warning.

What's really fun is driving anywhere with my eldest brother, who's a deputy sheriff. The badge is a "get out of jail free" card whenever he gets pulled over. Cops are human. Which is why I think the best response to being pulled over is to put them at ease (engine off, hands on the steering wheel, no sudden movements, window down) and treat them courteously.
