damn cops

Post by chance »

I know this isn't really the right place for this post. <P>Do those of you driving red mx-3's get pulled over a lot? I'm considering painting my car blue just cause I keep getting pulled over. I got pulled over Thurs. night for 48 in a 45. the cop let me go after he harassed me for awhile and stuck his head inside my car and sniffed. then i got pulled over again last night, i wasn't even speeding. the best this cop could do is ask me if I had any neon lights on my car and if I'd been in camble county lately. after answering no to both he let me go too, but this is getting to be a serious nuisance. I've been pulled over 3 times in the passed 2 weeks, and I don't even speed, (When there's cops around!)

your probably right about this not being the right place, but i get pulled over about once a week, cops dont like my car its too loud? its a stock exhaust? I got asked if i was selling at a 7/11 earlier that night, someone said it was a blue dodge neon, dammit my car is not a f*cking dodge neon they dont even have a hatch

Here's a trick for you. If they ask you what you're doing, say it's none of their business. If they ask you what you have in your car, say it's none of their business. If they ask you to get out the your car, tell them no, because you don't have to.<P>They can't make you do any of the above, and if they do, you can sue them.<P>I did.<P>~A

aiden,<P>I think you are wrong. I suggest no one should take your advice. Though you may have the right to "remain silent", you should not be a jerk to a po-po, or they will find a reason to ticket you/take you in...<P>Also I believe this post would go in the "general mx-3" forum...<P>I've been pulled over on the highway, she said I was doing 145 (km) and I know that I wasn't, becuase my cruise was set for 115km/h like I always do on the way home. So I argued (politely) for 10 minutes and she finally believed me, and let me go with no ticket...<P>later.
