TTQ B4U Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 As much as they can be a PIA for me on the road during nice weather, they sure come through when it counts. Wife was stuck on the side of 70E/270 heading to Z.Ville when she and about a dozen others dropped into a huge pothole blowing out tires everywhere. Sucks that this shit happens but it's just a car and wheel and roadside/Lincoln were good. Better than them however were the two Ohio State Troopers changing everyone on the road like a pit crew. Based on the text updates from my wife they changed 6 tires in record time including hers. She's now on her way to safety which gives me peace of mind given I wasn't in the area to help her. Doesn't mean I won't cuss when I take a lump from one of them clocking me on the road next time but it does mean that my Thank You at the end will be well earned on their part. Back to our regularly scheduled programming..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Beard Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 That's awesome. Never hated cops/patrol, just the revenue pushing they usually account for. There is so much more that they do with no gratitude, So :thumbup: in my book. I will however, continue to support my local jurisdiction one citation at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Always nice when officers do more then just write tickets. I've come across a few good ones, and most appreciate when you treat them decent. Very nice of them to go above and beyond changing tires, but just slowing traffic and making the scene safer for those unfortunate people stranded is a good deed.

Dharris89 Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Tim, That’s a great story. If you have their information, maybe send a thank you note to their captain. I’m sure some positive praise would be a welcome change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted January 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Very much this. My brother-in-law works at one of their posts and when they get a positive note from someone, it's HUGE for these people. I put a nice review up under google for the location serving the area.
