We were driving around Broken Hill and get pulled over for a random breath test. Swmbo was driving and the policeman asks what's that. I chimed in and said it was an 'exhaust gas temperature gauge'. I have it mounted in with all the dials in the dash recess.

The next day she is driving around and gets pulled over again (RBT) by a different copper and he says 'oh you're the person driving around with a bomb in your car ... please get out of the car madam.':eek-53: His next comment was 'that's my only attempt a humour for the day'.:bounce:

Apparently the first policeman must have first thought it was was a bomb (with the readout ticking down at idle) and went back to the station and told everyone. Just shows how on guard these folks are for anything odd ... must be a pretty (mentally) tough profession.
