Well, the Nighmoose meets the law, at night no less...
My only run-in with 'em was on a family reunion/ vacation trip. We were traveling out to Marfa, TX to see the "lights." Mind you this is high desert area coming up on the Davis mountains, and the sun was setting. I was given the ok to push the speed limit to try to get into Marfa by dusk so that we could see the lights, so I drove appropriately. The speed limit for this particular stretch of road was 75 mph, and since there was nobody on the road, and we were late, I was pushing the envelope. Then low and behold, Mr. Highway Patrolman meets me going the other way. I see him turn around in my mirror, and I knew it couldn't be anyone else, so I slowed down as his lights came come, and proceeded to pull off the highway. At the time he pulled me over, it was about dusk, and most highway's in Texas like this one drop to 65 mph at night, so I knew that I a very small chance of getting off without a ticket. He comes up to the window, checks license and registration and inspection sticker. Not only was I doing 81 in a 75 (65 if he would have been a real a-hole), but the inspection on the truck had run out the day before, and the front license plate was gone (I think it got ripped off in the woods). He asked me to exit the vehicle while he got my family's story, and then came to the back of the truck and compared it to mine. After a little chatting, he let me go with a warning, and was a really nice guy and could have nailed me, but instead he let me off.
Good to hear that your experience was as harmless as mine!
