Alright boys and girls, this topic is about being pulled over by the cops. If you have had the wonderful experience of being pulled over, or know somebody who was pulled over please, feel free to tell.

I have been pulled over twice. The first time I got pulled over I was doing 52 in a 30(that's miles per hour). I got this knocked down to a minor motion violation. The second time I got pulled over was for a noise ordnance violation, I only got a warning for this.

I never get pulled over, I'm a perfect driver.......
.....what?

Actually, I've been pulled over a few times, but I've had them knocked down. I blame society.

And I don't drive. That rules me out. Though I have been in trouble with the law on several occasions.

I've been pulled over a couple times. Once was in high school; I was going 35 in a 25 on this back road that's always completely deserted at night. I deserved the ticket, sure, but what I didn't deserve was to get interrogated for literally half an hour and getting asked over and over again if I'd been drinking or doing drugs. I was the victim of hippie profiling! ARGLBLBLBL!

I got pulled over a few years later 'cause my registration wasn't up to date. Just forgot to put the new sticker on. Got away with a warning.

And I got pulled over last summer, by the guy who used to be the Director of Student Life at my alma mater, of all people, for speeding. It's in this spot that's right on the edge of town and I always forget that it doesn't become 55 right away. He gave me the minimum fine, though.

I think that's it.

My mom was pulled over once for turning on a side road when a light was red. The sign for it was way far behind where is should've been and it was partially hidden. The policeman let her off with a warning, though.

I got pulled over because of vehicle registration sticker. However it was doubly scary since we were driving somewhere to celebrate my just passing the driver's test, and I didn't have the old permit with me. But my mom was there of course, so they let us off with a warning. Other than that I'm like the only person who abides from the speed limits. Used to flip off people who'd zoom by 20 above. :blush:

Exact same thing happened when my mom went on a test drive before buying her new car. The salesman actually got out and was about to reprimand the policeman for doing so but he pretty quickly lost that idea once he found out why we were pulled over. Also, this was from a busy road onto a highway, so I suppose the officer had a bit more of a reason...

My brother got pulled over once near a Washington Mutual bank because two cops thought he stole a car. But then, they found out that there was one little difference in the car my brother was driving and the one they thought was stolen. My brother called this "harassment".

Everytime I look you have been pulled over. I am suprised you still have your liscence. Miracles happen.

I'm a perfect driver, but a friend of mine threw a coca-cola GLASS bottle in the night, so the cops pulled them over, but the cops didn't have any proof, so they broke my friend's car's tail-light.

I was driving with a friend of mine and we got pulled over for speeding. My friends spedometer only when up to 85 mph. The offcier asked my friend, "Sir, do you know who fast you were going?" My friend responed with, "No officer, my spedometer only goes up to 85." I was sitting in the passenger seat , and my response was, "You're an idiot."

Hah, that's pretty funny.

The policeman took me home.. got in a lot of trouble.. had to go to a school where bad kids go.. i'm not a bad kid :sad:

I've been the victim of "dude with long hair" profiling... Not cool.

I went through this roadblock one night, during spring allergy season (red eyes), and had to go through this whole crap... If my high school World Civ teacher hadn't been there, I would probably still be there dealing with them.. Bob-O came in with the save. He was one of the deputies working, and came over to talk to me when he saw my car. Then he heard them giving me all kinds of crap, and put a stop to it.

I've been pulled over twice.. Once, for something I TOTALLY deserved (the speed limit dropped from 65 to 35 in about a half mile, and my speed didn't). The cop, an older guy, came up, looked in the back of my car, saw all my stuff (I was moving home at the end of a school year), looked at my license, and asked me if I was heading home from school. I said "yes, sir" and he said "well, Ty, your parents probably want to see you, so I'm not going to hold you up any more, but try to slow it down"...
The other time, I SOOO didn't deserve.. I got a ticket for going 60 in a school zone... The only problems: 1) it was summer, so there was no school. 2) it was at 10 in the evening (but the lights were flashing). 3) I pulled out about 100 feet from where I got "clocked" at 60... If I had a Maserati, this might have been possible, but in a 1997 Chevrolet Corsica, I kinda doubt it.. That ticket got thrown out by a laughing judge.

I got charged with carrying a concealed deadly weapon once, cus I had a pistol in my glove box, but that got thrown out, as it was not illegally carried (In Kentucky, a weapon, loaded or unloaded, isn't considered concealed in a glove box, if that glove box is factory installed in the vehicle... I knew that, the cop didn't).

I had that happen too. I was pulled over, at midnight, on the 4th of July. I had to recite the alphabet from c-s, and count from 39 to 12 backwards. So much fun.....

When they tell you to do that, DON'T turn your back to them and count 39, 38, 37... They have no sense of humor.
Stupid roadblocks..

No, I was still in my car. The cop was also suspicious about my liscense. My photo did not look anything like I did back then. It was kinda funny.

I kept it in the glove box when I went into the area I went into.. The people there were crazy, but I had to drive through there to get to my grandmother's house (it was way less crazy where she lived).

I had a couple of close encounters with the law.
I was driving home from school, yesterday. I was going 85 in a 65 and didn't care. Then I look in my rear veiw mirror and I see a Sheriff coming with his lights on and my heart sunk. I pulled in between a couple of Semis, and prayed for the Sheriff to pass. When he did pass, I let out the biggest sigh.

The other time happened a few weeks ago when I was coming home from my summer camp. I came around a corner going well over the speed limit, and sitting in the median was a State Trooper. After I passed him I looked in my rearveiw mirror and he started to move. I slowed down and hid in between a couple of semis(again). The Trooper pulled over a car, that I had passed a few minutes before, with Ontario plates.

Worse than the hood...
She lived in the sticks.. We're talkin "places the guy from SlingBlade would say 'I ain't goin over there, mmm,mmm' "
She was living at my aunt's at the time. My aunt's house wasn't in a bad place, it's just that you had to go through this REALLY bad place to get there.. Like, there's a meth lab exploding there at least once a week. It's one of the places that makes me ashamed to be from where I am...

Because, everyone KNOWS that every person with long hair does drugs and only people with long hair do drugs.. and we all play guitar, too. It makes it really hard to get a job, too.

BTG, it sounds like the car that got pulled over was guilty of being out of town... and I thought that only happened in small towns.

Surprisingly. Accurate. (in my case at least, minus the drug use)

Strong Rad O'Gravy has made a good point. After all, fellows, at some point you're all going to have to do the math. Most of you are relatively young and pretty much male. Unfortunately, yeah, you're going to get pulled over. Don't let it get you down, though. Consider it a small trade-off for all that higher-pay for equal-work business, or for living in the great wide world of patriarchy.

Me, I once parked in a red zone during some god-forsaken hour in order to beat the fastest path toward the campus ATM, and quickly returned to find a copper pulling in after me. It was perfectly obvious how doomed I was, so whining or complaining wasn't gonna do me any favours -- does it ever do ANYBODY any favours? "Oh man, you're gonna give me a ticket, huh," I remember sighing lamely, "even though I was only here for like, two minutes?" And I remember he said something to me like, "Well, it says 'don't park here' right there on the sign!" I apologized; he told me not to do it again; of course I wouldn't do it again. He said something like, "I'm gonna watch for this car, you know." A-WHUH? And he drove on off, presumably to arrest people for littering, or for being young and male.

So concludes Christa's solitary run-in with Teh Law. And I drive fast, too. I LIKE MY CARS FAST, LIKE I LIKE MY MEN AND MY COFFEE! MMM, FAST COFFEE! Someday it'll catch up with me, I know. But not THAT day, apparently.

I guess you'd call that EXPRESSO.

I once got pulled over about 4 years ago. I was moving from Georgia to Louisiana, and I had a truck-load of household crap. I was pulled over by a policeman for suspected drug trafficking. He basically held me up for about an hour and kept asking me if it was okay to search the truck with some drug dogs. I kept telling him to go ahead, that I had nothing to hide. After about the fourth or fifth time he asked me, he just told me to have a nice trip and left. Go figure.
