"Run-In" with police officer

Yesterday, on my ride home from work, I glanced in my mirror and noticed a motorcycle right behind me as I pulled up to a stop light. I looked again and noticed it was a police officer. As I stopped at the light, the officer pulled up on my right and nodded.

Me: How ya doing?
Officer: Good and you?
Me: Fine, thanks.
Officer: You be stopping at all those stop signs(?)(.)

I delay my answer. I'm looking at him with his wry sort of smile and not sure if it was a statement, or a question. I had just gone through two stop signs and was trying to think if I blew threw either of them. Pretty sure I had not, I said,

Me: Yessir!
Officer: How's your bike running?
Me: Bike runs great, but the motor sucks!
Officer: laughs
Me: How's YOUR bike running?
Officer: Just fine, thanks, be safe!

The light turned and we both went straight. There were three stop signs between there and where I turned south and you can bet your bottom dollar I was sure to clearly stop and put my foot down at each and every one of them. :roll:

Let that be a lesson.
Respect the Law:
always look everywhere for the law,
before you blow safely through a stop sign.

Remember to look up!
Those tricky CHPs have both fixed and rotary-wing
eyes-in-the-sky!

:lol:
