I don't think "luck" had much to do with it unfortunately. This guy was sitting in the BOA lot next to Autozone and seemed to "luckily" exit just as my and my wife did. He then proceeds to write my new address on my insurance card, and had me waiting for 22 minutes for a damn turn signal violation. I know the game. He was trying his damndest to find something else on me but my record is squeaky clean. Even did the old lean in close and smell for weed trick. I don't smoke shit sir, I pay my insurance a year at a time and yes my plates are legit, sorry to disappoint you. Oh well I guess, time to send this ticket off.

Or here in florissant dealing drugs, its real nice how you get pulled over for the pidly shit.

ya, same feelings here. cept here in warrenton, they WILLNOT pull you over with just one cop. they always have at least 2-3 cars for ANY and ALL traffic stops. you would think they have better things to do.........

ive had a cop do that to me too. pulled me over and asked why i was speeding, which i wasnt, and i told him that. then leaned in and smelled the car, then checked my tint, which was fine, then sat in his car for at least 20 min before ticketing me for following too closely. fuckin douche

from what i have heard.....they are thinking about making a law that cops cant follow those who run, because it is a danger to civilians. is that true?

Then protect each other?? Gee they work in a dangerous job, you have tint on your car, so they have no clue who you are or what your doing when they pull you over.

Maybe they got a call about someone in a similar car doing something suspicious. He was just doing his job again. As for the ticket, were you?

Its not exactly a law but more of a policy in some places. Remember they most likely already have your plate number, so all running is going to do is make them wait at your house and give you more tickets.

they do that no matter who it is, what they're driving, or what they were pulled over for.

it was some trooper that was a couple cars behind me. he was following for about 5 min, and i had the only 4door integra in warrenton, dont know how far away the closest one was. and i was following more closely than normal, because they were going 40 in a 55, but i was still at least 2-3 car lengths away.

i was just wondering if it was, a friend was talking about them trying to make it a law and it sounded like an odd law to me.

So again you are not liking them protecting themselves?

So you were following to closely, and he gave you a ticket. Also you might be the only one that lives there, but your not the only one in the area.

im simply saying that it is bumfuck warrenton, i havent even seen them do that in north county when i lived there. there was one cop at my wreck in noco last may too. my uncle has been a cop in stl county since before i was born and he said most of the time they didnt even do that.

and if i was following too closely then the car following me and him following that car should have both been ticketed because they were both closer than i was to the car in front of me. wasnt trying to cause an argument, was just stating my grievances
