Most lame reason for getting pulled over

To answer some of the questions asked of me:
1. Radar will pick up any car, no matter the color/make/size/ or if it's made of fiberglass or metal.
The radar system I use picks up the slower speed and the faster speed, it's up to me to figure out which one is speeding. (which isn't that hard when the faster car is passing the slower car)
Radar detectors are junk if you ask me and i'll explain why. How does it work? It works by picking up radar waves...which means the cop has you on radar when the thing goes off.
Also most officers view radar detectors as an admisson of guilt. if you have one your more than likely speeding.
2. I'm modding my personal car. not my squad car.
As for the respect to cops here is my personal take on that:
I treat every person I pull over with professional kindness and respect. why? Becasue they just got pulled over by a cop. more than likely they are scared out of there mind. so I try to put them at ease. I'm always nice and polite to everyone even they are an A$$ to me.
Now I won't lie. I pulled a over an Evo IX about three months ago for doing 77 in a 55 racing another car. (they just got started) He pulled over the guy in the Z06 didn't. And wasn't about to go chase him. I told him the following.
"Man what where you thinking? Racing a Z06? Look I'll forgo the charge of street racing becasue, hell I have my own stop light fun from time to time, but your not going away unpunished." I worte him for a 65 in a 55. No big deal.
well turns out the Fuc*ker takes it the ticket to court. So I tell the judge everything I did what he really was doing and used my Dash cam as Evidence. The Judge looked at him and said " son you really that dumb to come in here and fight this? Needless to say he wont be driving for about a year. kid got luckly the judge didn't give him jail time.

Worked as a 911 dispatcher for about a year and let me tell u....I wouldn't put up with the crap cops take. Most people have no idea what cops see and hear all day long and have to maintain professionalism. They have my highest respect and admiration cuz I couldn't do what they do, but it has to be done and they are the ones to step up and get 'er done.

I remember once in the early 80's I was getting on my 79 Z-28 really hard, lighting up the tires in 1st and 2nd gears, and a cop pulled behind me as I got to my house, no lights, no siren, But he was on me in a hurry. He jumped out and I thought for sure I was toast. He was really cool and we just stood there and BS for about 30 mins about cars.
This was a long time ago I know but I still have that feeling that he wasn't being a cop right then, just a car nut like us.. I still thought I was gonna get at least a careless and wreckless, but he just said see ya, I was impressed. And a little bit shaky after that..
