The guy probably doesn't get to use those flashing lights very often for an actual traffic stop. You "made his day."
The bears have been getting out of control at DL Bliss in recent years. IMHO, they really need to focus on working the campground - educating people, citing gross violators, and hazing the bears out of there. But to use those flashing lights, now that's a lot more fun!
At least it's a reasonable distance to court for you, Reno. Good luck. The PR route will probably backfire on you from diehard law-and-order black-and-white commentators.
As anyone who has volunteered to do trail patrols and carries a radio will tell you, the forest/park LE has more than enough opportunities to flash their lights.
If you break the law, which Reno Frank and his passenger did, you should be prepared to pay for the mistake. The only thing you can do is say yes sir and no sir and hope to end up with a warning. Now, all Reno Frank's passenger can hope for is the officer doesn't show up in court.
