Back in '77, I was pulled over by WI.'s first female trooper (at least the first one I ever saw...).
I passed her on a 2-laner (properly, with turn signals and the whole 9 yards), and she lights up the cherries.
My front plate on the '69 Caprice had been ripped off by an automated carwash machine, so I had written to the state for a replacement plate and stuck the carbon of the MO in the window for proof of purchase/replacement.
When she queried me about not having a proper plate (I had a dark blue w/black lettering plate that stated "AIRBORNE"), I referred her to the carbon in the window.
She made me take it out, then hand her that plus my license.
She went to her vehicle and I waited for what seemed like 15 minutes.
She came back, handed me the carbon (she had folded the tape onto itself, so I needed to tuck it away 'til I could re-tape it to the windshield.) and my license, then left me...no warning, thank you or good bye. (*****!)
Anyways, WI. requires two plates...screw around with that and you get the final screw.
And if what I've heard is true, if a trooper in WI. lights up the cherries, it's going to start at over $200.00, and it only goes up from there.
I'm making sure my nuts are on tight!
