Z370 = Evil cop magnet

cpehaot · 11-03-2009, 11:58 AM

It was the car!!! It made me speed. Got 2 speedy tickets within 30 days. The car is so much fun to drive & so I keep forgetting to watch speedometer and the bush. Need to bring some damned killer bees to the bushes guys

Anyways. Watch it out there. I am broke so gonna craw like an old woman now.

I was pulled over 5 times in last 6 months

It's all good. No Tickets (knock on wood). Cops around here are pretty nice. 3 of them were State Troopers but they all were very nice. Some even said "Good Evening/night " to me as they let me go. I also follow some steps when I get pulled over (i.e. turn the car off, put the keys on the dashboard so that cop can see it, put hands on the steering wheel, be VERY polite, don't make any sudden movement or talk to passenger etc). Also I was told, if you tell the cops you're a member of "The370Z" forum, they let you go with a warning....

Okay just kidding on the last sentence

Almost fell for that ! I'm like, WTF !?

Good advice on the pullover. I do all that except one change. I roll down the window and put both hands out the door in plain site.

At night, be sure to turn on the interior light for the officer.

LOL - if only the cop knew what a joke putting the keys on the dash was.... its the same as being in the ignition with our car ;P

billydsz · 11-04-2009, 03:27 PM

Geez I want to live where you guys live. Around here, if a trooper pulls you over, you are getting a ticket. I don't care what steps you follow or whether or not your hands are out the window or down your pants. Those guys would ticket their own mother around here, hell they'd throw the book at her to make an example.

racerxj17 · 11-04-2009, 03:59 PM

AK seems to have it down like a pro

other thing- if the popo asks you if you knew why you were stopped..... if you know, tell him! ( ie, your on a cell phone, make eye contact with the cop next to you, then tell him you dont know why you were stoppeD? lol)

also, i advise against getting ANYTHING out before asked. ID, reg, insurance ect. cops dont like to walk up to a car when someone is in the glove box.
