I was probably23-24 when me and my brothers got pulled over on a sunday morning about 9am . we were towing home a CedarRapids gravel crusher. I was towing it with a new Chevy dump truck . We were following it with another dump and on the steeper hills we would hook it on the back of the crusher to better control the push on the towing truck . Anyway the officer say we had multiple violations . well it didnt take long before i sensed a bit of attitude and of course I challenged his charges , his first one was heigth. I got the ruler from the truck , and unfortunately for me when we measured it ,it was 1 1/2" over te limit , then he went to over width and tho it was 9 1/2' wide on the hopper bin I argue that it was above the 8' limit then you can be wider . Then he started on the safety issues. He was going to draw it to the impound yard which was 25 miles away , Thats when i asked him how crazy he was when I only had 2 miles to go to get home . He got in his car and sped off , I waited about two minutes and finished going home. never encountered that officer again for 10 years. but thats anonother whole story.
