I was pulled over in Elko, NV for a burned out brake light.  Turns out that,
due to a transposition of driver's license numbers, there was a warrant out
for my arrest.  It took a few phone calls to straighten that one out (good
thing I'm not a 30 year-old Mexican woman).

I got a ticket (deserved) on Michigan's UP for 70 in a 55 about ten years
ago, and one last September for 70 in a 55 zone in S California (also
deserved).  Have really not had any bad experiences with officers, other
than their doing their jobs.
