...has been on a lake in upstate New York... on our boat. I was driving, pulling a friend on the wake board. The cop pulls up on his boat with the lights flashing. Apparently there is a law in NY that you can't tow people behind the boat after SUNSET (I am licensed in CT and the book here specifically says "after DARK" never specifying anything about sunset). He went bat-shit psycho on me, getting ready to write me a $100+ ticket. He made us go back to our dock to write out the ticket but my grandfather knew the guy (he was a local) and talked him out of writing a ticket. He was still a total D*CK though. It's "cops" like that who leave me with little respect for most law enforcement, though I have met many nice and respectable police officers. A simple warning and I never would have done it again.
