So tonight i was driving home from the bowling alley when i had an encounter with the coolest cop ever. To set the story up you have to know that one of my headlights has been out for about a month now and i've been too lazy to fix it. I have a headlight in the garage and i've been meaning to change but i just keep putting it of. So anyways as i was driving home tonight i was driving through an area that is pretty much all offices so at 11 at night there's not much traffic. I came to a stop sign and did the kinda rolling half stop thing when all of a sudden i saw flashing lights. I've probably done the same stop at that location about a hundred times now and neve had a problem.

so as the cop comes up he asked me if i knew why he stopped me and i said "i didn't really come to a complete stop at that stop sign" He said "no you didn't but that wasn't why i pulled you over" At this point im thinking to myself 'shit why did i just admit to that' but wasn't too worried

well he ended up telling me to fix the headlight and make sure i come to complete stops at signs. he didn't even give me a fix it ticket which is good because i don't have to go throught the hassel of proving i fixed the light

sorry for the long post anyone else have any stories of a time a cop was cool to you?

CLIFFS: got pulled over for having a headlight out. also ran a stop sign. cop let me go which i thought was cool!

Lucky bastard hahaha...I gotta fix it ticket because of a headlight in the Inifiniti....I LITTERALLY jumped in the car the VERY moment it blew out (both lights were fine the previous trip), drove to pick up a friend, got pulled over and was unaware that the light was out until the cop told me...

I told him "Hey my house is just a few blocks over, Ive got extra bulbs, follow me, I'll replace it right now in front of you" He says "No Ive got better things to do tonight"...so I say "Better things like give out bullshit fix it tickets when there are gang bangers, drunks, and street racers out there practically getting away with murder? Yeah I understand...."

He just told me to have a good night and walked away....mother fucker

Yeah just on the 15th this June, I was coming back home from the titty bar celbrating my b-day with my homey. I was just ramblin away and the SUV swerved a little and got close to the guardrail on the right hand side of road. Next thing you now Im getting pulled over. Cop immediately smells the beer on the breath and Im thinkin..."Sheeet me Goose is cooked!!"
Took me out of the car runs my info comes back with a light pen and proceeds to give me a DUI test! I have to stay still standing straight and watch the light with my eyes only back and forth up and dwn while he watches to see if my pupils can follow. Me being the damn drinking pro that I am ...PASS HIS TEST! He ask me if Im OK to drive the rest of the way home after I had to admit I had 1 drink long time age ...NOT... nodded my head yes and I was free to go ...My boy was like
I was like ..."please tell me you didnt but the blunt up your ass."

i had a cop pull me over on my birthday at 1 in the morning (my bday started at 12 that morning) on a secluded highway, no cars anywhere. so he pulls me over and says, do you know why i pulled you over, and is said, "because its my birthday and i won a prize?" "no, one of your headlights are out, let me run your license, ill be back" he comes back and tells me i have 3 warrants out for my arrest (which is news to me) and gives me the number to each of the precincts they are in. tells me to take care of those and get the headlight fixed, and then he took off before i was even back in my seatbelt. he mustve gotten a call and didnt feel light filling out any tickets or having to deal with me on my birthday. now THAT is the coolest cop ever.

KINGFABIAN

unpaid tickets...

i got 2 of them dismissed for "no financial responsibility" and showed i had had it all along, and even had showed it to the cop. the 3rd, i had a speeding and a failure to appear so i paid $500 and they got rid of it.

I'll tell you something about cool cops. It was about a year ago around this time (a couple of days before 4th of july). I was driving my bucket with a busted taillight. My legend was trapped in the garage cause the garage door broke.
long story short..... had a few pitchers at some pizzaria... then picked up my boy with about 2 backpacks full of fireworks... went to a cut to roll a blunt in the bucket (i rolled it, like always)... i start driving back to the city... as im about to spark it up... i notice 50 right behind me... i get rolled on for that taillight... officer approachs my vehicle and asks for my ID and registration... then tells me to get out... he pulls me aside and says "your car REEKS of marijuana and alcohol" Im thinking "OMG im so fucked, my boys are going to jail/fines cause of my damn taillight" i have my boy with a shitload of fireworks and my other homie with a oz. of that sticky icky... he asks me if i can explain the weed smell... i said "i dont know"... so he's like "hmmm... ok... can you explain whats that all over your lap?" and he shines his flashlight on my pants and there was hella weed crumbs around my crotch area from the blunt i rolled 5 minutes earlier... i told him it was oregano from the pizzaria spot (yep... thats the first thing that popped in my dumbass head) soooo..... i take a breathalizer and i PASS! simply amazing... then he utters "you know... i can check your car if i really wanted to but more importantly i just want to make sure you were good enough to go home" and he let me go.... only bad that came out of it was i ended up losing my wallet... i think i was so nervous at taking the breathalizer that i left my wallet on top of the cops car but i had my ID in my pocket for i shown it to the officer earlier.... so those were the cool cops... im very lucky indeed

I have actually had a couple run ins with good cops, and the single very bad experience.

First one was doing 95 in a 45 "WORK ZONE". I was late for an appointment to setup a network with all new computers in the car. I knew why I was pulled over and he asked why I was speeding. I told him and he told me to slow down and gave me a ticket for 55 in a 45 work zone instead of 95....

The next one was actually on my way back with the Gold '91 LS. The dealer had told me I didn't need a temporary registration, just the bill of sale.

When the officer pulled me over I flat said "You pulled me over because of no plates correct?" he said "Yes" and I told him the dealer told me I didn't need anything except the bill of sale. He goes and checks my license (I didn't even have my insurance certificate on me, but offered to call Geico and get my policy number since it was programmed into my phone.). I have had my wild times and had my number of suspensions in the past, 5 or so to be exact and mostly around the time I owned my RX-7 (way to many speeding tickets). He comes back and goes "You have been suspended a few times....." I responded "Yeah, I made the mistake of owning an RX-7 when I was younger".

He responded "Well, the port of entry should be open and they can give you a temporary registration. Have a nice trip back to Idaho.".

Let me go when I could have been given a failure to register, failure to show prove of insurance, and god only knows what else.....

No proof of insurance + not showing up in court to fight it caused 2 of them and cost me $225 each (ticket + reinstatement) + SR22 filing for a year.

2 for failure to pay tickets....

1 for driving while suspended (forgot to file SR22) which caused another suspension.

haha, somebody told me this joke about that a couple years ago...

this guy pulls up to a stop sign, and does that same rolling-stop thing, almost coming to a compete stop, then continues through the intersection where he was stopped by a cop on the other side.

The cop tells him, "You didnt come to a complete stop at that stop sign back there..." and the guy replies, "Well i slowed down to almost a complete stop...i dont see much of a difference between slowing down that far and completely stopping."

So the cop pulls out his nightstick and starts beating the guy over the head with it, and asks,

"So do you want me to slow down, or do you want me to stop?"

when i was younger, I use to have a cavalier that i thought was at the time was bad ass. well It was 2 in the morning and i was driving out of town when a stupid nissan pickup tries to race me. so being young and full of bravado i take him up on the challenge so we line up and we were away. long story short i beat him by like 3 car lengths my spedometer was toped at 100 and still acclerating. so we turn around and head back into town. as i get into town me and my friend josh see all these police cars like five of them all coming down the road with there lights on. being that this is a small town thats like half the police force. so were like uh oh. they pull us over, aperntly a cop on a bicyle saw us lineup, and radioed for backup. so the one of the cops asks us while we were spread out on the hood "do you know how fast you were going?" "too fast i replied." and then my friend says "too furious" I was like dude this is no time for funnies. well long story short they gave me a ticket for exhibition of speed racing on hiway. Later in court i got that droped to excessive speed, only cause i knew the proscuter(thank god for small towns) I ended up paying like 600 bones and got like 4 points on my lisence. I dont street race anymore nor do i drive a cavy.

how is that a story about a cool cop? you got 4 points on your license...


sfcpollo - i read in the paper the other day that san francisco and oakland have an "unwritten law" that police turn a blind eye to marijauna use as long as the person isn't dealing. the reason for that is because everyone feels its no worse than alcohol and the police in those cities should be booking people for more serious crimes, not posession.

my cool story is...
when I was 16 I had a heavy right foot and an Integra with Cold Air Intake so clearly, I felt untouchable on the road. I was really impatient all the time and always speeding and swerving through traffic. So one day it's around 5pm and I'm on 101 North, stuck going 50mph in a 65 zone because there's so many cars.

Needless to say, I was impatient. I'd like to note that I don't drive like this anymore, and have come to realize how stupid, immature, and reckless it is. Well after a couple miles, a car-pool lane opened up on the left side. So I put on my signal and bury the gas pedal into the floor. Within seconds I hit 110mph, feeling pretty good about myself as I fly past every car I was just stuck behind. Then, in my moment of calm, I look in the rearview mirror to see a gold helmet and white motorcycle coming up behind me.

All I can think is the letters S H I T in bold, upper case in my head. I put my signal on and get back into the stream of traffic and mash on the brakes. By the time the motorcycle cop gets behind me, I've slowed to 80. He lights me up and I proceed to make my way to the shoulder. We pull over and he walks up to the passanger side of my car, tall boots and all. He leans in the window and says "So what happened back there? I just saw you shoot off as soon as the carpool lane opened up. What's the emergency?"

Not only was it a carpool violation, but doing excess of 100mph can get you put in jail for the night, and CHP officers aren't famous for being lenient. I figure I'm fucked and the best bet is to not play stupid or lie to the cop. "I'm just really impatient I guess" I mumbled as I looked at the giant reflective sunglasses he was wearing. He grinned and with a laugh, replied "Yeaaa, sometimes I like to just get on it too. How fast do you think you were going? Looked at least like 90 to me."

"110" I mumbled. "Ha-haaa" was his response. "You gotta slow down there partner, you're liable to get someone killed at those speeds". I told him I knew better and it wouldn't happen again. He added that he liked my integra and that he had a Corvette. We talked for a minute more about cars and then he let me on my way with my warning. Needless to say, I always do the speed limit on that stretch of the highway now. Definitely one of the luckiest encounters I've had with the police.

well the cool thing is that it is suposed to be 4 points, but whenever i get insurance it comes up as 1. Plus the magistrate wanted to make an example of me by fining ne $10000 and 6 months in jail. so i guess its not a cool cop story but a cool proscuter story.
