Followed by cops all the time

shesha · 06-22-2009, 05:31 PM

I work by LAX, and anytime I am driving to and from work, I get these real jerk off cops, who just follow me until I arrive at work.

They literally follow me till I get to the parking structure, and sit there for a second to watch me swipe my card, like I was trying to ditch them and pulled into the parking as a plan!

Sick of it man. Im 32 and I still get treated like a punk!
With my Tints being removed last week end, I think I have decided not to get any tints done. I get way to much heat from the police, and I don't want to give them any reason to pull me over.

Definitely a valid question!

What's wrong with having your own police escort going to/from work?

That's what I was thinking. It would be nice!

Don't let them harass you. Assuming everything is legal (re: you and the car at the time), when it gets to the ridiculously obvious point, just pull over to the side of the road, roll down the window, and wait. Either they'll leave, or they'll approach and you can ask them why they're harassing you. They'll get tired of this game quickly.

I see no downside to having a police escort every day. Look at Obama!

Damn, I'd be scared to do that in front of LAPD.

That's what they're shooting for, scaring you into submission. Don't let them. If you're not doing anything illegal, there's no reason for them to be harassing you on the road.

And yes, a cop following someone around for no real reason is harassment. Everyone, regardless of legal status, watches the cop in the rear view, gets nervous, gets distracted, etc. This leads to driver mistakes (which is what the cop is hoping for, to induce a ticket-able offense), and could even result in an accident.

Just remember to be courteous when you confront them, and keep that lawyer on speed dial

It bet it's because ricers or kids speed through that tunnel all the time. I used work near there, and I literally saw those "rentacops" or quasi-LAPD pull people over from that turn off the 105 W merging onto Sepulveda. People don't take that red light seriously.

Maybe they just like the way the z looks from the rear, i know i do.

Viera · 06-22-2009, 06:27 PM

Just popo's that got nothing else better to do than to harass us.

i have cops waited for me when i was at the light at an intersection and when he pulled on the side of my car i rolled my window down and he did the same thing,then he asked him self outloud this..why did i buy a g37?370 looks a lot better in so many ways and he told me he dig my z.sometimes we get offended when cops follow you around but you have to understand that its their job to do that.you didnt mention if this same cop pulled you over and give you a citation.i think in my own opinion hes just admiring ur 370 and wish that hes driving one instead of driving his patrol car.you know once in a while youl see a rare car and you starts admiring it? sometimes you even follow it arround just to get more glimpse of it? its the same thing what this cop was doing.to be honest with you im the third one here in san diego to have the 370z according to the dealer and yet so far i have not seen the other two.
