I felt raped, the pigs had done me on all fronts, and now they were goin off the chuckle about it on the south side of town...

but with the rite cooperation it turned out ok

--storry--
september 30th, 2002
So its my day off and im on my way home from modding my car with my brother kinda out of it (tired i guess). sober as a judge, cruisen down some country roads. not looking around watching for cops. when i notice two cops on the side of the road off in a parking lot. as i passt them i looked in my rear view and i see brake lights followed by a flash of white reverse lights:uhoh: . so i grab my pull over papers (ready for cops always) so both patrol cars get on the road heading my direction about a 1/4 mile mayby more behind me there lights turn on. imediatly i got off on the shoulder. i never wait untill there rite up on my shit to see if its me there after..so they both get out after about a minuet and very slowly they both aproach with flash lights..
cop 1 was a black traffic cop
cop 2 white narcotics unit cop

cop 1: the reason i pulled you over was you were going 71 in a 55
me:i didnt notice..
cop1: step out of the vehicle, ill brb
me: ok

cop 2 very consistantly checked my car inside and out
cop 2 you been drinking
me no
cop 2 you on anything
me no
cop 2 do you smoke weed?
me no sir
cop 2 what are these zig zaggs in the glove box
me rolling papers
cop 2 any weapons on you
me no

so he has me empty my pockets i had a whole dime in my pocket wich fell on the ground he told me to put my hands on the trunk he needed to search me so he did and found nothing

im just thinking i was speeding why the fuck am i being searched..
after patting my balls and finding nothing he asked to search my car
i said go for it.
he found 2 packs of zig zaggs and nothing else..

after a few minuets i got bored and started a conversation with him like
hows the wife n kids and hows being a cop working out for yuh. he answered these stupid questions very seriously like there doing good and its alright

finaly the other cop gets back from his car i check out clean of course
he gives me my sitation and tells me that if i pay it before my court date he will have it taken off my record and it wont show up on my insurance i said thank you and he handed me my ticket.

the moral .. always cooperate, let em search if your clean, dont be a cocky ass. your getting a ticket either way so be kool about it and they might hook you up..
if you drive for two long with there lights behind you and they get aggrivated and dont care just give you a ticket and leave..
my ticket is 87 dollars... cheap ticket eh.. lata

very true on both

I've kept friends outa jail by being coo to the cops,

I've kept myself outa tickets same way

Cops are usually nice people, even if they arnt, they can make your ticket bigger, or do worse to you if your an ass

And weed will just wreck you, at least the chemical composition in your brain *proven fact* so yah, stay away from that :bandit:

So yah, good job you lucky honda boy :p

dude that check was so unecessary, over a speeding ticket... me personally if i knew i had nothing on me i woulda given them a hard time for wanting to pat my ass down. but then again i can see you actually wanted to GET HOME SOON... its really gay when i hear stories about cops bustin in on your privacy over traffic violations. i hear the black cops are dicks cuz they're tryin to impress the white supervisors (no racist) hey man, they were chillan in a parking lot, so you coulda jetted off right??? or was there no place to pull off???

i always get searched almost every time i get stopped at night.
one time i got stoped because i had a light out. they searched me and searched my car ... for a light being out. it always seems to be that way.
bet they dont search 30 yr old women in a yukon..

o i didnt have any weed that dime was an actual dime. as in 10 cents.. i realy did kinda sorta quit for my job and wife. but you never know when you might need some papers...


isnt it true that if you turn off the road and the cops lose site of your tail lights and you pull off and turn off your car and get out your off the hook?

I've never been searched nor has my car. I will not let them do that out of principle (the car, not me since I dont have a choice). I have nothing to hide, but that doesn't mean they get to invade my personal property. Let them get their warrent. Let them write their ticket. My lawyer will take it from there.

No. If they find you they charge you with attempting to allude an officer. 3 month supension of your liscence.




-Yogsvr4. They are allowed without a warrant to search the area with in arms length of the front seat, excluding sealed containers. Its is called the "wingspan rule"

Well, in NYC, they are not allowed at all to search your vehicle unless they have a warrant, anything that is visible to them at the moment they approach your car or you consent. I have a somewhat neighbor who's a pig...ooops... I mean a cop. I once got pulled over and they asked me to search my car, I told them no, they got a little peeved about it, but no harm. They gave me my ticket for speeding and were off.

What?? Here all they need is probably cause to search your vehicle. And as long as you don't have anything for them to find what the hell is the big deal? Shouldn't have been speeding in the first place, or doing whatever else it was that caught their attention. And if you do have something to hide, then you deserve to be searched, cuffed, and sent to jail for as long as warranted.

Once they arrest you they will search your vehicle completely. And they have the right to arrest for speeding at any amount over. So, be nice let them search. If you have somthing illeagal then you deserve to be arrested.

Yea sure, if they don't see any of it and don't find you. I've gotten lights flashed at me a total of 6 times, All with people in the car but I've gotten away every time.
>>Once they tagged me but I cut off some dude (dick thing to do i know but go with what works) and they pulled him over by mistake. Which is possible, I know a few cops...
>>2 of the other times they've had to do a 3 point turn, which gave me just enough time to get off that road and hide.
>>Once the cop tried to turn around but traffic was too heavy which made it really hard and gave me more time... again. Which thank God cuz I was going 35 over the speed limit. That limit is too low anyways.
>>Once I come up over the hill and the damn cops right there taking his speeds but there was a major road 20 feet ahead and I dove into that traffic and disappeared.
>>And the last was on the highway doing 115 on a 70 cop did a u-turn but the time it took him to do that I went down an off-ramp and hid in a driveway off the road a ways.

I've been real lucky. I've never been pulled over and after that last one I started being more careful... I got a radar detector! :sun: actually I did get more careful and slow down. I got a $250 radar detector from Circuit City, best they had and it was an electric door detector. I took a trip to Florida from Missouri and saw all sorts of cops taking speeds on the side of the road and it never went off. I saw so many cops but that stupid detector didn't do a damn thing. But boy when it got near those electric doors that bitch would scream bloody murder. It talked to you too. it would detect and block laser, detect x, y, w\e they had it had everything but didnt work 4 shit.

LOL >> You said dime and mentioned rolling papers and I wondered why in the world they let you go.

One day my friend and I go to a football game and as soon as he gets out of the drivers seat a cop stops him and I walked off cuz I didn't want to get in trouble. He had a quarter in his pocket. so the cop asks him to empty his pockets and he emptys the one w\o the weed and the pig didnt notice, said OK and let him go.
lol, that would have done it for me except I don't smoke.

If your aware of the traffic and see cops the chances of booking it are good. I was doing 70 in a 50 zone in irvine and a cop that was intending to go straight turned left to come after me... i was 3 lights down and jumped onto the 5 freeway before he could catch up.

Cops in your area are pathetic

Here, they will call backup, from EVERY direction, they will get a chopper if nessary, and theres pleanty of them here. I've run once, he was parked, I was going 115 in a 65, I saw him go, I started to slow down and went "to hell with this, hell just throw me in jail then" so I booked it at 140 outa there, and made it to a town, gassed up and went back to the freeway *in the desert, different state, wont say where*

If I were to run here in the city, I would be caught for sure, only one friend made it, and he was damn lucky.

first off... ROFLMFAO!!!! That has got to be the funniest shit I've seen all week.

Second... Around here the cops DO suck balls big time. Their so damn lazy. It's great. There have been at least half a dozen times when I'd be doing around 90 in a 55 and a cop will just flip on his lights, sticp his hand out the window and give me the thumbs down to slow down. EVery time I've flipped the mutha fucker off. They never do shit. It's always 'round the same back roads and they're narrow. He'd hafta do a 3 point turn after a complete stop and by that time I'd be long gone.

Once we were drinking in my friends integra and a cop walks up, (way back in the boonies) everybody in the cars 18 or under... all with beer. He makes us give him each bottle and while we watch he pours it all out, tells us not to do it again and leaves.
Another, my friend in his windstar gets pulled over and he's got a cooler of mountian dew in the back. the cop asks whats in the cooler and he says mountian dew. the cops like 'bullshit!' whats in it. my friend repeates it the cop asks him to open it. he opens it the cop says
'damn boy! shit when I was your age that'd be chock full of all the beer we could find. Get out of here. Get a life while you can still live it' and with that he leaves without so much as mentioning my friends excessive speeding.

haha, Why do you think I stay in Missouri?

Here in Chas, SC we have actual video tapes of cops planting beer bottles and weed on cars during a search.

So now no one here lets them search even if they ask to for just that reason. Too many people have gotten screwed by the cops on bogus busts. It's outragous here. Big political problems. My car has been searched 3 times. Each time I was in my T/A.

Ever since I got this Civic I haven't even really been bothered by cops. I just sort of slip under thier radar for now(until I get more mods done i'm sure).


While i'm sure that J.Fuggi will beg to differ on this point......Bottom Line........always cooperate with the cops and you will come out on top lots of the time.

I have been pulled 8 times and only ticketed 3 of those times probably just because I was respectful, well at least until the "bacon on wheels" drove away......LOL......suck it cops.

Yea I've talked to a few cops and even gotten a book on "how not to get a ticket" (lol, I really needed it) and they all say the same thing. Cops are harassed a lot and as cops they have to ignore it, but as people it really sinks in. If you give a cop all the respect you can muster he'll be more open and much more likely to only give you a warning.

What is this "respect" that gets you guys off the hook? I always treat officers with respect (at least in a face-to-face situation), yet get the book thrown at me:confused: I must be doing something wrong...

First i tried playing stupid(a real reach...LOL) and being respectful but that really doesn't work if you are male. Females go right ahead and do that.

The way i get out of tickets is to act like i know exactly what is going on, instead of being surprised at what just happened.

The best way that I have ever gotten out of a ticket happened about a year and a half ago......I had just come from playing golf and I had my water bottle in my car. The cop pulls me over cause i was speeding. I remembered some other people saying this idea would work. I poured the water in my lap.

As soon as the cop got to the window i yelled "yes I know i was speeding but I have to get home to get my medication. I have a unrinary track infection and if i don't get the medicine everything will start to burn, so can you please hurry if you have to ticket me."

As soon as the words "urinary track infection" came out of my mouth I could tell the cop was ready to tell me to get out of there before I was even finished.

Now I like to carry a spare water bottle under my seat, just in case.

:huh: :hehehe:

i'll try that next time.

the only times i've been pulled over was when i drive my bro's 90 oldsmobile cutless. i've been pulled over 4 times in that car and 0 in my teg. i think my town is doing racial profiling cause 80% of :bandit: (hispanics) here drive oldsmobiles. damn racist pigs. one time i was making a left turn and the cop was going straight, after i made the turn he suddenly turns after me. he followed me for a mile! when i finally arrived at my house, he puts his lights on and questions me about what i did. he said i cut corners (bull shit), and my blinker wasn't on long enough (bull shit). i wish he would have given me a ticket so i can take his ass to court.

YES, CHART!

Yah, cops do that sometimes

They profile me as a young punk up to something, they have actually stoped me at restraunts and told me "I dont know what your up to...but stop it, go home" As I was leaving TO MY CAR, SO I COULD GO HOME! and I was just with some friends, minding my own buisness as they were, we were just joking around all happy, he just had to be an ass and act tough not happy to see us happy.

Funny thing is, we were at krispy kream *doughnut store* and he was going in as we were going out. :p

Cops like insurance companys work off statistics. Males age 16-25 are many times more likely to be involved in an accident or criminal act. The police know this, and often take it to far, assumeing every one who is in that demographic group is a criminal. Which of course is not true. So, I guess getting use to it is probably a good idea. There not going to leave you alone untill your 70years old cruising around in your caddy at 20 under the speed limit.

10-04-2002, 04:36 PM
ok, Fly Rice Racer... that has got to be the funniest damn thing I've read in months.

I've gotten a few pointers from the book on how not to get tickets and a few cops I know...

1.) Boost the cops ego
If you have glasses on and so does he, wait until he gets up there and take them off so he knows youre looking right at him. Make as much eye contact as you can, try to make him feel like you're a person and not a ticket.

2.) When he asks for your license and registration BREAK EYE CONTACT to get them. They say they always get a tingle down their spine when you keep eye contact and reach for your wallet or reach in the glove box because they think you have a gun or something.

3.) dont use the excuse that you're sick. It doesn't work.

4.) Cussing out the cop only hurts your chances if not destroys them completely

5.) You always have at least a little bit to make conversation with the cop when you're getting your registration. Use it as much as you can. Don't just sit there and do what he says and answer his questions generically. Do what you can to make him laugh. If he laughs you're good.

6.) The reason cops ask if you know how fast you were going typically means they don't know themselves. It's easily possible to pull over the wrong person and if you reply by actually saying how fast you were going, then he's got a verbal confession and proof that you were actually speeding. Just a little side note: He can easily use that against you in court since they have their cameras and mics in the cars they've got you on tape as saying how fast you were going. If they ask tell them that you don't know, you weren't paying attention to your speedometer like you should have been.

7.) Dont apologize directly. That is, don't say "I'm sorry for speeding officer". It's really a bad idea to say sorry at all but if you must use it with something else, like "I'm sorry officer, BUT..."

8.) Don't ask if he knows so and so on the force. You don't know if he\she likes that person or not, etc. It also doesn't matter that much to him. You can pull a cops name out of anywhere. It's just not a good idea to try it.

9.) If somebody else passes you (it's better if their driving "recklessly") take good note of the key features of the car, make model, if you can get the license... stay a quarter mile or so behind them and if a cop pulls you over start going on about that guy and act like you're really relieved to see him, etc. How many stops do you think they make where somebody sticks their head out the window and says "boy am I glad to see you officer!". Then proceed to tell them how this guy just flew past you and was all over the road. He might have been drunk and he was endangering other peoples lives. If he asks you why you were speeding, say you were trying to follow the guy until maybe he stopped and you could call them, blablabla... You were following at a distance and you tried to pick them up on channel 10 or 5 on the CB radio... and then say something like "well?! what are you waiting for? can't you call for backup or try to catch him or something?? Hurry or you'll never get him". Then it's in the cops hands. He has to think about how if he ignores your statement and then the driver gets into a wreck or you call the station and tell them about the incident then he's negligent and he's in a fair amount of trouble. This one works (I know, I tried it the one time I got pulled over on the highway)

10.) Call the officer by his proper title. Make sure you know what type of cop he is. If you read sheriff, call him sheriff. If you can see he's a cop call him officer. State Troopers: Trooper and if he's got 2 bars on his shoulder: Sergeant. Depuity, etc... but DONT call it wrong. There's lots of discrepancies in the types of cops (We've all seen Super Troopers... :D) If you say it wrong, there's a good chance you're gonna be screwed.

Alright, Thats most of what I know and from what I hear from friends who tried these excuses they do work. But keep in mind: sometimes no matter what you say or do, the officers bound and determined to give you a ticket no matter what. If you're the poor bastard that gets pulled by that cop, well... sux 2bu I guess.
