I thought this would make an interesting thread. What the lamest reason you got pulled over?

Ill start, I actually have two:

Me and my friend were trying to take pictures on top of a parking garage and all of a sudden 3 "rent - a - cops" come barreling up with screeching tires. They surround us and say you are trespassing all i have to do is press this button, referring to his radio and call the cops and they will come up here and arrest you, they may even impound your car. Needless to say i was scared shitless. ( i dont do good with law enforcement even if i havnt done anything wrong) They end up giving us 60 seconds to leave the garage.



2nd story: It was 1030pm on a school night for the high schoolers that is. Im dropping some friends off. I see this cop behind me so i make sure to come to a complete stop at the stop sign. Well apparently that wasn't good enough. He pulled me over for not stopping behind the line. even if you did stop behind the line you cant see the intersection. So he has me get out my car and is trying to see if im drunk or high, which i am none of the above. he ends up letting me go with a warning.


So what are your stories?

 

Obsessive use of the horn.

 

lmao @ Venom

And..just got pulled over for my window tint..thats about all I got.

 

no headlights on at night. bahaha, that was the night i blew out the old rear end.

 

no front plate

 

haven't been pulled over in 5 years. It was for speeding but just got a warning.

 

going around a manhole, yeah the cover was on, but I just moved over towards the shoulder of the road(manhole in the middle of road),didn't cross the line, stayed in my lane 100% of the time, got pulled over and given a careless driving ticket, was complete BS! Not only that, but it took 4 cops, 3 squad cars and 1 hr to write that ticket, they sat there and BS'd with each other, talked on there cell phones, etc.
only ticket I was ever given, but it has since been erased since I did my community service, and it was taken care of through "teen court".

 

ahh yeah i hate it when more than one cop shows up for an incident like that. makes you feel more nervous than you should.

 

I got pulled over for not having a front plate once. Funny part was that the cop was my Mom's cousin and just wanted something to talk about at the family reunion that was two weeks from the day I got pulled over. He just gave me a verbal warning after checking out my car.

 

Air freshener over the rear view mirror

 

seriously??? that is ridiculous!! lol!

 

I got pulled over for no plate and tinted headlights. Twice for the headlights before i even got home haha what are the odds.

 

i was pulled over a few days after i got my license driving my dads van. The reason, he had none he just asked if i had stolen the van

 

hahahahahahhahahaa

 

I got a ticket for obstructing my view. Better known as a DWB(Driving While Black)

 

OK....true story. When I was 17 (many, many years ago), I had been in GodSpell at school (Musical). After closing night, we had a party right after the show. We never got out of custume because they were essentially personal closthes, but we were all dressed like clowns....not typical clowns like as in a circus, but I was wearing some goofy **** and had stage makeup on etc...

So, it is about 2am and I am on my way home. I see lights behind me and I got nervous. I start driving and making turns, but the car stayed on my ***.

Then, the cherries come on. Turns-out it was a cop. The cop called for back-up, so now there were two. They approach the car and have me get out. They said they stopped me for driving erradically. I told them that I thought someone was following me. I looked like a goof and they must of thought I was nuts. They thought I was drinking....yet 100% sober. I offered to blow into the tube, but they said "no" and sent me home.

 

Lets see, December 2005 Snow on the roads. I was driving my old sixer to pick up my girlfriend to bring her to school at 7am, soemthing I did once a week as a kinda cute tradition. Anyhow, I pass a cop sitting near a dunkin' donuts (I am now less than 100ft from her house) and I wasnt speeding, it was snowy and I was driving a V6, how could I be speeding? Pick the girl up and turn around, now on the same side of the road as the cop. I squeek by doing around 20mph and the light right there turns yellow as it is OVER my car. He pulls out and catches up to me a light later, and pulls me over. Funny as hell because I had to open the door to talk to the cop, my window was frozen shut. He gave me a warning for failing to follow a traffic signal, which was such utter crap, considering I even knew he was there. He really was just angry he couldnt get me for anything else, that car was pretty flashy for what it was...

 

I've never been pulled over in my stang yet.. But in my truck about 8 years ago, I was leaving work. exit from work is on a hill with a funny bump, and my tire chirped a bit as I was pulling onto the road. Cop pulled me for squealing my tires, LOL, I told him there's a funny bump there that just made me hop a bit. He said, no problem, you can go now. He was cool, because my last infraction was in 1976.. LOL. I've gaadaam lucky, I guess.

 

i had the same thing with view obstruction. i got dice hanging from my mirror and he gave me a 75 dollar fine. all i had to do was take them down and let a court officer see they were gone to get out of it.......that little ****** cost me a day of work

 

No front plate and the cop was black, so I guess the real reason was "driving while white"...
He was pissed because I refused to pass him so he could pull me over! I already got a ticket for that so was no doing it again even if he stopped in the damned road!

 

1) 80 in a 45... Ouch.... Big ol' ticket. sucked, but I payed it.

2) My friend and I were sitting in my mustang out in front of the school and he didn't have his seatbelt on. the rent-a-cop pulled us over, and he got a verbal warning.

3) The lame one. I was pulled over for "driving a suspicious vehicle", what the hell kinda crap is that? I think he just saw a kid driving a fast car and thought "oh god it's a kid he must be drunk/high/stoned!!!!" I was pissed as hell when I got pulled over, I wasn't doing jack **** wrong. No ticket for that one either.

 

My last ticket 4 years ago was for barking my tires when I was accelerating onto the highway. I never went over the speed limit just accelerated fast to get into fast moving traffic and I barely barked 2nd gear and somehow he heard/saw this from 6 cars back. It was the day before my 19th birthday. ***** weak.

 

I was also pulled over once for an unknown reason, cop came up asked for license looked at it. Asked my friend for his license looked at it. Then the cop was like ok well the car sounds great have a nice night. lol

 

speeding

 

Haven't been pulled over, but I always get a stare-down from the cops when near them

 

i got pulled over a week ago by a cop with a friend in the front seat, he said i didnt use my turn signal to switch lanes when i was 1 car behind him when i know i did (i do all the time anyways but there was a cop right in front of me, of course i did).. i told the cop no i did use my turn signal, im 100% sure and he gave me a warning



ha day before me 17th birthday tho a cop going the opposite way on a 2 lane highway looked over and saw me obviously speeding some, but he cut across a 100 ft grass median between the two ways of traffic and pulled me over and said he clocked me doing 77 .. i didnt argue bc i was going faster but wtf!!

 

I was pulled over for wrecking my 1997 firebird into the back of an F150...

 

Got pulled over for 103 in a 65. I felt it was a little unnecessary to give me a ticket, could have let me go with a warning.

 

Haven't been pulled over........













yet.

 

Lmao. Be happy with the ticket, could've thrown your *** in jail
