Hurryin, thanks for the reply. Scary, unsettling, disturbing, yes all of the above. I most certainly object to be treated like a criminal for having something in my truck that is perfectly legal and visibly empty. I also object to being asked intrusive questions, when I had done nothing wrong. He pulled me over for a turn signal out on the trailer I was pulling, all my papers were in order, and I really felt that the OSP trooper was itching for an excuse to haul me out of the truck. I answered his questions, as improper as they were, because I was afraid. He was really on the prod,in my opinion. My parents raised me to believe in the saying, "of the people, by the people, for the people". This was government unto the people, in my opinion. I felt and still feel that the OSP trooper was way out of line. The disturbing part of the whole thing, is that there is nothing I can do about it. I have heard of this sort of thing happening, but I haven't had a ticket in over thirty years, so yes I am shocked. I can now understand when people tell me that they are afraid of the police.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
