OK..POLICE STOP 101...IF POSSIBLE , PULL OFF A MAIN STREET INTO A STORE, GAS STATION ETC INTO A PARKING SPACE...SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, HANDS ON THE WHEEL, HOLDING YOUR KEYS. THIS ELIMINATES 3 THINGS RIGHT OFF THE BAT. YOU CANT TAKE OFF AND FLEE, AS YOU ARE IN A PARKING SPACE AND HES PARKED BEHIND YOU..2.HE DOESNT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT GETTING HIT BY SOME MORON THATS DRUNK OR CANT SEE..AND 3, IF YOU TRY ANYTHING, YOU HAVE TO REINSERT THE KEYS AND START THE CAR, THAT GIVES HIM PLENTY OF TIME TO PUT ONE IN YOUR MELON IF NEED BE. ..SEE..ITS NOT THAT HARD.
oh,,,heres another lil secret...dont argue witrh them...ever notice after you get a ticket and you pull away, that the cop stays there writing something down...whats hes writing, is everything you said on the back of the ticket he juts gave you,..ok, class dismissed.
you gotta pay attention…. I wasn’t necessarily referring to your specific case. Your post just reminded me of a question that had to do with being stopped by a cop in general…..
In California, the days of warnings and Officer Friendly are over because the State is in such dire financial straits. Orders have been issued by State and local governments and, unfortunately, cops and the CHP are now glorified bagmen for the powers.
So it would appear there is no consistency in police actions from on locale to another. I guess it depends on quotas in effect, weather, other events going on, whether the PO had a beed with his wife, girlfriend, or both before going on duty... Whatever.
