I am not going to engage in an argument with a law enforcement officer at the spot where I am stopped.
Nothing ever good happens when you argue with the officer that stops you. Quick recent story - I got the boss with me and we are going to a nice hotel to pick someone up. Due to a Stars game, the road is blocked and one deputy tells me to go down and make a U-Turn. She meant at the light but didn't say that and I turned around in a spot that was marked no U Turn (no traffic at the time) I approach the street again and another DSO deputy motions me over and starts to give me a ration of crap about turning there. I'm apologetic and try to tell him we are just trying to get to the hotel. My boss (who is definitely A type personalty) begins to argue with him and say that the female told us to make the U Turn (which she did). I smooth it over and we head to the hotel. My boss tells me the deputy didn't have to be so rude. I agree but tell him it is just easier to apologize and just move on. The deputy was a complete ass and I could have pulled my credentials and got in a pissing match with him but that would only cause way more problems. I understood why he was miffed but c'mon you blocked the road and there was no traffic coming when I made the U turn. There was no need to be a *ick about it.
