Pulled Over....

510z · 10-10-2009, 05:41 PM

If I was police and pulled someone over and they admitted what they did. 99% chance they would drive away with no ticket. honesty and being willing to take responsiblity for ones own action would be very important to me. Thats if I was police of course. I also dont see the logic in turning a minor civil traffic ticket into criminal felony flight for running. hmm 136 dollar fine or felony conviction. tough choice.

being a police officer, this is completely true with 99% of cops. lie, your getting the book. be a ****, your getting a ticket. be polite, fess up, and your good to go. at least in LA, alot of traffic stops are not for tickets, yet to check out who is driving the car.....(drugs, guns, ect)

I personally hate writing tickets and with LAPD, there is no quota, or pressure. you do it if you want to. that being said, i dont like writing them unless someone really deserves one....

You don't issue a ticket, to cell phone users who are driving?

X2 one day last year I had a civic si behind me. Now I was on my way to the movies and was sort of in a hurry. So I pass the 2 cars in front of me...so does the si. To make a long story short before you knwo it we are weaving threw traffic and passing cars he than passes like 5 cars and I say screw that I am done. Now he was from Delaware and I was in NJ. When we passed cars so did another car behind us. Next thing I know I am getting pulled over so is he farther up the road. Guy asks me what was the deal with all that crazy passing. I told him I was in a rush and I guess the guy decided I was trying to play with him. After I explained it all he came back and LET ME GO! He said I like an honest person and you did not lie to me once during this stop you are free to go. I was like OKAY

I'm glad you spoke of your good experience with an Officer as all most people ever talk about are the fewer bad experiences. There are jack asses in all lines of work but this doesn't make everyone in those fields bad people. Thanks for your story bigaudiofanat!
