I was traveling a quiet industrial street where I work and coming to a stop sign. There is only one other road entering the intersection on the left, a parking lot on the right and a one way going straight ahead. So, I slow to a crawl, looking left, not seeing anything coming, looking to the parking lot to the right, I see a BPD cruiser. I'm probably going 1 mph. Knowing the cop is usually there to catch cars coming the wrong way on the one way, I take the foot off the brake and roll beyond the stop sign. I see the blue lights go on and think, "WTF he can't be stopping me?" So, I stop. He moves the cruiser literally one car length. The rest goes like this:
Officer: "Driver's license and registration. Do you know why I stopped you?"
Me: "Yes, I think it was because I did not come to a full and complete stop at that stop sign." I hand him the DL, registration, and LTC
Officer: "Are you carrying now?"
Me: "Yes, Sir."
Officer: "Okay, this is going to be a warning." Hands me back the LTC, goes to the cruiser with the reg and DL for 5 minutes.
Officer: "Thank you for carrying lawfully." Hands me DL and warning.
Me: Shocked
