Got Pulled Over
Topic 24531 | Page 2
Turtle you have luck like mine, lol. My dash alerts me as well on headlamps. I always carry spares, because they always seem to go out at the worst time. Glad the trooper was good about it. And yes most of the time attitude is everything!! I was pulled into a rest area in michigan once to a reception line of officers. They were doing a very large scale inspection detail. I pulled up and 5 troopers, one asked how my day was going, and I said wonderful. He response “ anything we can do to change that”. My answer “ no sir not today”. He said drive safely. Now that answer was the difference in 2-3 hours being inspected or heading for the house.
Duh, I didn't think to grab a spare. It's only a matter of time before the other one blows now, and it'll probably happen when I'm in the middle of nowhere. I think I'll run inside right now and get one.
If you have the space, I would have one spare of all bulbs and a bunch of extra fuses.

Use the tools you have. No shame in that!
