failed to signal when pulling over.

is that normally something cited? like a test, or something? Otherwise...seems pretty petty. I would think the DWI would be enough, eh?

Jim “my daddy gave me a footbal team” Irsay is an elitist jerk. My guess is the phrase “Do you know who I am” was used at some point and didn’t go over too well with the arresting officer.

Probably the reason they pulled him over in the first place...the police sometimes have ‘saturation patrols’ where they pull people over for any infraction...just to see what they might find.

These patrols are usually late at night and where the drunks drive.

I was pulled over for a burnt out license plate light during one of these...the car has two plate lights, and its actually a challenge to even see that one is burned out, but they did. (I wasn’t drinking and was sent on my way).

Local media said he was stopped several times in the middle of the street, etc.

This guy is a long time doper, so it comes as no surprise.
His father Robert was a raging alcoholic, the gene pool is there.

At 3:00 in the morning, most cops assume you have been drinking when you do something stupid, like stopping in the middle of the street.

I was once pulled over for “inadequate license plates lights” ... one of the two bulbs were burnt out!!!! no joke!
