Colorado State Patrol

So, Saturday night, Matt got the opportunity to go out on patrol with the Colorado State Patrol from 4:30 PM until 4:30 AM on Sunday morning. Let me tell ya, way cool. I got to watch them test some shrooms to ensure they were drugs, I got to see how a roadside sobriety test goes, and got to see the Boulder County Jail all in the same night. Seeing as though I want to be a cop, I thought it was pretty cool to be out with them all night, and I even got to write a warning ticket to someone. I think CSP is the way to go being a cop though, I love being out in traffic and that is what I want to do. The other departments have to go to peoples houses to check in on them and stuff like that, which don't get me wrong, if I get offered a job with another department, I will take it, at least until CSP has an opening. Anyways, pretty fun stuff. I definitely suggest you try to get out on a ride sometime, even if you aren't wanting to be a cop. And don't worry, if I get on as a cop, you can ride along with me. Sorry, no pictures of this one, you will just have to imagine in your head how cool it was.
