“An Ohio Highway Patrol officer once told me to get off his highway via his loudspeaker. He did not give me a ticket. This was 1993.”
You should have reminded him that its the people’s highway. And, so is the patrol car, and perhaps his weapon and uniform, depending on Ohio policy. Oh course, this would have really pissed him off and he would have written you up for any and everything possible - probably would have checked your tires to see if they were wore down to the safety bars. But, you would have made your point. Hey, gotta take a stand every once in awhile, right? LOL :)
My car had non-Ohio plates and kinda looked like crap (so he wanted me off his highway) and he could have written up the vehicle for a few things I think. Thank God he let me go my own way because when I got home I realized I had forgotten to take my drivers license :)
This happened 7AM near end of his shift so he figured he would buzz me and have some fun
So I am very happy with the way this Ohio State Police “abused” me
