My uncle, living in Hartford, CT, is known for his lead foot.
My mom likes to relate this story.....
YEARS ago, he was behind the wheel driving home from a family trip. He was pulled over for speeding along a highway in Northern Indiana, this was in the late 1950's....
The officer who pulled him over, walked up to the open window of the car and said "son, let me see your flying license." Where my uncle looked over at his dad, and my grandpa said "show the officer". My uncle pulled out his pilot's license and handed it to him
....
The officer just started laughing and said to my grandpa as he wrote the ticket, "If he had gone under 100 mph just once, I would have let him go"
Those were the days....
