More information as we gathered it at the Sherriff's office:
It's the third brake light, you see. I examined his car and took video of the perfectly functioning brake lights, but I do acknowledge on review that the third light, the little one up in the rear window, is not working.

"Do you habitually stop a car for the third brake light," I asked, when the two normal brake lights are operating? Is a third light even required?"

"Oh yes," the Lieutenant exclaimed enthusiastically, "all day long!"

Oh, come on! Not buying it. We counted four third lights out on various cars as we drove out of Claremore. I don't think I've ever noticed that partticular, egregious malfunction in my life! I've certainly never heard of anyone being stopped for that! LEOs, help me out here: is that normal?

A further thought occurs with respect to the legitimacy of this whole scenario as we leave the Rogers County Sheriff's Office:
I counted no less than three marijuana dispensaries within two blocks of the Sheriff's office. If they are really all about interdicting the demon weed, why not just step across the street and walk in the door?

Well pot is legal here in okie land, and although its illegal on the federal llevel the staties wont touch it unless someone has it and does not have the magical medical license for a hangnail, stubbed toe etc.

So there is a solution, get a medical pot card, when the cop says he smells weed, hand over the card and smile.

That is not relevant, nor illegal thanks to ok voters.
