OK....I think I've made my point. Enough story telling.

Sometimes it works in your favor. One night quite late I ran out of gas on
a highway exit ramp. I proceed on foot and notice a police car sitting in a
field. I walk over and ask him where the nearest gas station was as I had
just run out of gas. "Hop in!" he said, and drove me to the nearest gas
station. I put a deposit on a gas can and put 5 gallons in the can and put
it in the cruiser trunk. On the way back to my van, he says "I'm on
vacation in 2 hours, I can't wait!" then proceeds to turn left at a red
light with a no left turn sign. He goes up the ramp the wrong way (no cop
lights) and drops me off. "Thanks!" I say as he speeds backwards down the
ramp. It was all rather funny.
