Maybe that was the one that was out here. We've had one roaming the area for years.
I'm thinking that the cops were on a revenue raising drive of some kind, just checking to see if there is anyone they can ticket, for anything.
Or, there was some kind of crime committed in your area that involved a car similar to yours and they were canvassing. Since you were otherwise involved, you didn't notice until you heard your plate being read. Maybe the crime happened on another day, and these cops just happened across yours parked in the driveway.
Must have been a real shock to hear your own name and address over the air like that!
I've heard my friends, ect..., get pulled, checked for being suspicous, and loads of other stuff...
Never heard myself though (and hope i never do)

You're right it was a real shock but I got over it at first. I had chalked it up to one of a couple scenarios, e.g. the officer or dispatcher misread and ran the wrong plate or maybe I had parked near a crime scene the other day and now the police are canvassing businesses with video cameras in the area and just checking random vehicles on the video.
But after talking to a good friend of the family they were telling me about receiving one of those speed camera tickets in the mail. It included a picture of a car with her license plate on it but it wasn't her car. She eventually was cleared of the ticket after presenting proof that it wasn't her car. But it got me to thinking; is there some sort of scam going on in my area where criminals are forging license plates? Now my quandary is do I mention this to the police?

Good one. We have a local department that is part of the county volunteer system and they try to make themselves cooler, bigger and better, by going through spurts of using the common codes or ways of saying where they are, etc...like 2294 on the scene.....somedays they will say 22's rescue 94 is 87, 94 in charge, situation being evaluated.....which dispatch becomes very annoyed by. I think they have a member or two that watches too many old Fire Dept TV shows, and short of starting their own department, they want to stand out and be Mr. Bigshot.

Multi unit speed trap
Heard on an unrecorded RCMP TAC Channel:
To set the scene: traffic units were setting up for a multi-unit speed trap. multiple units on an on-ramp with one unit calling speeds using laser from an overpass, lasing cars from behind.
" attention all units, this is your captain speaking, buckle up, were are expecting high flyers, bad attitude and possible serria/romeo (snide remarks). All warrants are to be executed as quickly as possible and remember we provide service with a smile. The gas pedal is on the right..."
I cannot remember the rest, as I was driving home from a club executive meeting. My passenger and I howled when we heard this.

Suspicious Hunters!
While monitoring this Sunday morning a call came through to the dispatcher from 2 firemen, they had seen 2 people hunting off a Dakota Street which is illegal to hunt from the road. The firemen reported this and their dispatcher comes back in response "roger and any description of the 2 individuals on what they were wearing??" You could hearing laughing from the 2 firemen saying "uh camouflage?????". This perturbed the dispatcher because obviously if I could hear the fireman laughing at her so could she. She responded "I KNOW THAT ..... WHAT ARE THEY WHITE, BLACK or what???".

Had FD Dispatch call out Station 2 this morning for a mulch fire in front of the station, 'your station on Lost Nation Rd', like they 1) didn't know there was a fire in front of their station, and 2) that they didn't know where the station is located.

Iv'e heard similar here. I think the dispatchers just don't know what to say, really. We have one night dispatcher that is terrible, she can't dispatch worth a hoot, and lord help us if she is chewing gum and the phone rings.
She likes to say "There by the church...right there on Main st...." which is annoying when she uses "there" in a sentence about 8 times. And she also, due to lack of ability to multi-task, tells the cars she "can't copy your radio", like all the time, This is lazy for...I'm not paying attention and can't do 2 things...or key a mic and tell you to standby...or turn on the channel marker so you know to hang on....I mean they will call signal 99 if they need it now, but she would probably say "What's a 99?". She plays dumb on the radio system...If I can hear a car, she sure the heck can hear them. They have a 5 site simulcast, wireline control to the hub repeater, and a stand by control station. She can hear them. Oh the politics, she'll probably get promoted to head dispatcher.
