kept the 3 Grandkids Ha, Ha
He also ask for My reg after I handed it to Him He handed it back stating
it was no good not valid , I explained I just had got recently at the lic
branch He stated then sign it and give it back and then it would be valid,
It must be signed.

Hello from Don L.Crozier Sr. a retired Law Enforcement Officer and Amateur
Radio Operator . I drive a 1996 Chev Blue S-10 Blazer, I have running
Boards and on them I have Small Blue Led lights that was bought at a auto
parts store , The lights do Not blink or Flash , I live in Hammond Ind and
never have had any Problems from State or Local Law Enforcement about the
lights, Last week 14 Nov. I was going to a Ham Radio convention in Ft.Wayne
In. about 22:00 hrs. 20 Mile North of Ft.Wayne on US 30 I was stopped By
a Police Officer who was very polite and ask Where is the Fire / I thought
He might of said this if I was Speeding and I replied I was not aware that
I was going over the Speed limit , He stated I was not but it is against
the Law in the State of Indiana to display any type of Blue lights unless I
was a Vol Fireman on the way to a Call, I stated I was aware of that but
Thought it would mean On the Dash or Roof and Flashing or Blinking that My
lights were as a Decoration Running Board Light. , He checked My Lic and
Registration and Gave Me a Warning , after I Pulled the wire to the lights
off. Here is the IC code He wrote on the back of My reg IC 36-8-12-11
In reading this I still Don't see where in My application that I would be
in Violation of The Law can You Please confirm that I would or Not Be in
Violation
Thank You Don L.Crozier Sr.
