I picked my car up in Salisbury MD and I was pulled over by the MSP in Cambridge MD. The young LT. That pulled me over had to run to another call, and another more senior, but lesser ranking officer was left to tend to my Benz and me. He was in his fifties like me and he was very empathetic with my predicament. He had to have the car towed and he wrote me the least ticket he could possibly write. He personally called the owner of the owner of the towing company, a Mr. Jeff Hurley, and told him the I was a good man with a bad predicament and to help me in any way he could. Mr. Hurley informed me that it was a good thing that I didn't get stopped with fictitious plates, because the car would've been impounded and I would've went to the pokey. Jeff looked online for shippers and within a few minutes I had 5 bids to ship the car, all of which I might add were cheaper than any quote I had received from Uship dot com earlier in January. He would not tell me the site he used, but seeing as he owns a body shop and a multi million dollar recovery and towing company, I suspect he has considerably better access than I as a consumer do to better shippers. As I said earlier, I should've pulled the plate from my 300d, and stuck that on. I wasn't doing anything wrong other than no plate, so I wouldn't have been pulled over.
