Getting pulled over

I just wanted to hear some of the stories you guys might have about being pulled over. Has the cop ever asked you to get out and searched your entire car for narcotics and such or padded you down, etc.? I've had some good luck with being pulled over so far except for a $100 tint ticket, the other 2 times I just got speed and modification warnings, so one day I expect a little more 'due process' from the kizzy and wanted to know what you guys had to deal with.

I got a good one about being pulled over. It was the weekend of 9/11. Me and my friends were gonna go up to our friend's summer house up in Maine. I just go outta work so I was sleeping on the way there. When we got up 95 into Maine, we got pulled over. I woke up and all I saw was flashing blue lights. Then all I smell is weed and was like you guys are dumbfu(ks man. We had to get outta the car while his K-9 searched the truck. Me being the sober one, I was pissed. The other kid was standing there laughing at how cool the dog was and how he found the weed in his bag. After that, the cop looks at me and was like "Did you smoke this dope?". I said no sir. Then he says "Why not? Your friends are doing it?". I looked at him and was just like WTF. He was being a wiseass with me. He checked to see if I was sober and then wrote my friend up for posession of useable amount of marijuana and minor transporting alcohol. Luckily we got off the hook with that instead of getting locked up for a nite. I almost pissed my pants man. So scared. He said I had to drive the rest of the way there and that was it.

As far as me being pulled over, I've gotten two warnings. One for running a red light (it was yellow and i couldn't stop on time cuz it was raining and the road was wet) and the other one was cuz I had blue side signal lights.

yeah, it helps if your dad is a poliece captain at your town, doesnt it?? lol

ive been pulled over a few times. hahaha most times the cop is nice. ive never been searched tho. ive got pulled over once on a sunny spring day, i was just driving. i was going 35 in a 35, but i was following a bunch of other modded cars, then i turned off and went on my merry way. turned on some block to go home, cop pulls me over and asks me where im going in such a hurry. im like what are you talking about? hes like, i had to do 60 just to catch up to you! and then he asks me if i know what the speed limit was on that road. so i tell him its probably 35. i think he wasnt expecting that so hes like, "no, its 25..." then he started asking me about what im doing, so i tell him im just driving around, enjoying the weather. he looks at me, and tells me to slow it down, there are people walking their dogs on this street. LMAO

another cop clocked me doing 45 or 50 in a 35. i told him that i was on my way to maine (it was a friday night, like 7 or 8 pm), so hes like..."well, i know if you keep driving like the way you were driving someone else is gonna catch you"...and then he let me go. that was awesome! those were the few times where i got off w/ nothing.

I've been pulled over way too many times. When I was in Ft. Lewis, I was pulled over while driving over to a training range near Yakima, WA with one of my soldiers. The cop asked me if I knew how fast I was going, why in such a hurry and if I was carrying any weapons. It freaked him out when I said "Yes officer, I have 2 weapons in this car." He drew his weapon out and screamed for us to get out of the car with our hands where he could see them (Mind you we were in uniform at the time also). I tried telling the officer we had permits for the weapons in our wallets, they (the weapons) were in the trunk and the magazines were in my glove compartment. To make things worse, 3 other cop cars pull up and more pull weapons on us while 4 police officers proceed to go through my car inside and out (At that point, I gave them permission) When one police officer opened my trunk and only saw 2 M16's in the trunk and the magazines where I told him they'd find them, he walked over to me and my soldier, got our weapon cards and compared the serial numbers. After everything matched up. The police officer excused us and apologized for making that big of a scene. 3 weeks later, we had a letter of apology from the cop who pulled us over and his police chief!

Cops suck! I have like 4 speeding tickets and was once pulled over by mistake.

I had just turned out of my housing track and onto one of the main roads out where I live. I drove litterally a block or two and out of no where some motorcycle cop pulls up beside me, sticks his hand in my open window and with his finger pointing to the curb, says pull over. So I do and notice a BMW z3 also pulls up behind me. That I didn't understand at first. Anyway I'm sitting in my car as the cop is talking to the guy behind me in the z3. He finally walks up to my car and asks me what on earth I thought I was doing racing the bmw at 80 in a 35 zone; me driving a 02 ex sedan mind you. At first I kinna just sat there and was like.. wha? I told the officer I didn't know what he was talking about and I had just turned off a street not as far back as the one he had supposidly clocked me. The bike cops where I live are real *******s so he just insisted I was lieing and that because I was lieing he was going to tow my car. When he said that I was pissed. So I argued a bit with him telling him I dont understand how he could have seen my face, and gotten my license plate if I was never on the road he supposidly caught us racing on. Some time passed as he went and wrote our tickets and I could tell the guy in the z3 was trying not to look at me. The cop walks to the z3 first and starts talking to the guy once again as he is handing him the ticket. All pissed off and annoyed I sit and wait as the lovly thoughts of my mother ripping me a new one dance through my head. Finally the cop walks up to my car and says "well its your lucky day today son" "the gentlemen in the z3 confessed that he was actually racing a black mustang. You should probably thank him." "so your free to go, have a nice day". Overrun with relief I didn't say anything to the cop or the guy in the z3.. I just drove off.

Moral of the story. Cops suck! And definatly lie! Bitch said he saw my face and my plate.. then all of the sudden there was a confession. Right.

My worse ticket ever and hopefully I won't match it. I had been 16 for about 4 months and was dating a girl that lived about 30 minutes from my house. We lived in a really small town with nothing but back roads. I would leave her house and have less than 20 minutes to be home before curfew and would make up the time. I had a z28 at the time so it was no problem. One one of these nights I was crusing from 100 to 130 on most of the main road to my house. I kept noticing a car way back on some of the straight aways and was wondering where they came from b/c the road was mostly empty. I had gone almost 10 miles and got then gotten stuck behind a van about to top a hill. I got passed the van soon as we topped the hill but the next thing I new my car lit up with blue lights. The cop comes up and snatches me out of the car and starts screaming. He finally realized I never knew he had been tryin to keep up b/c I had stopped as soon as I saw him. He wrote me a ticket for 100 in a 45 zone and reckless driving. He had calmed down and told me that he could have written if for over 130 b/c of some of the speeds I reached. Everyone in the small town had scanners and had heard most of the chase so none of the parents would let their kids ride with me for a long time. Got to keep my DL in the in though b/c my dad knew the judge
