From the Tennessean:
A prominent state House Democrat said today that he didn’t do anything wrong when he called a fire station for help after a traffic stop for speeding.
Television station WTVF in Nashville reported that Democratic Caucus Chairman Mike Turner, who is a local fire captain, was found to have an invalid license when he was pulled over last Friday morning.
Turner said there was a fire station nearby but the officer wouldn’t let him drive, and his family was out of town. Turner said he then called the station and a fire engine picked him up and a firefighter drove his car back to the station.
