It’s not just traffic officers in many places but just general patrol officers. To give you some example, I was once felony stopped and taken off my bike because ‘You matched the description of someone we’re looking for.’ Suspect vehicle description: Bright red Harley custom with a flame job, with the typical ‘Pirate b-movie extra’ riding it. Me: Black Honda standard bike, all black riding suit, black gloves, black helmet, black boots.
Yeah...
I was once stopped because we fit the description of someone they were looking for. It was me, the driver, and 5 other coeds. We fit the description? LOL So there were six other gals driving around Boston at noontime breaking the law? Sure. ;-)
