Good story one of my buddies told me who worked up north few years ago. Story is from his buddy that he knew while he was working up there.
Driving along one of the highways in the middle of nowhere in middle of the day. Hasn't seen a car in 2 hours, cuz it's pretty desolate. Anywho, doin maybe 10km/h over the limit, outta nowhere there's all of a sudden a cop behind him with lights flashing, so buddy pulls over. Police officer walks up to car ask for the usual license and registration, while buddy pleads his case that he hasn't seen anyone around in 2 hours, could he please get a warning. Was really polite about the thing. Police officer just laughs, buddy pleads again one more time to please get just a warning. Again police officer just laughs and walks back to his squad car to write up a ticket. Police officer comes back and asks buddy to sign the ticket, as the officer hands him the ticket, buddy passes his own ticket to the police officer. Officer has the most amazing puzzled look on his face, asks "what's this?" Turns out buddy was a WCB officer heading up to inspect some camps, so he just laughs when the officer gives him a $200 ticket for speeding and said shoulda just gave me a warning and I woulda done the same for you. Ticket was something in the $1000's for not wearing his safety vest when we got out of his squad car to walk up to buddy car on the side of the highway.
Now I know this happened in the Yukon, so I don't know if they have the same law regarding wearing safety vest as we do, however, the WCB agent fined him and it stuck for not having a hi-vis vest on during a routine traffic stop.
When I first heard that story I was like
