Argument with cop last night

[superqt4u2nv]

I bet had you not lipped him you wouldn't have gotten any kind of ticket. And it's not entrapment it's reasonable to pull people over close to bars or after certain hours to check for drinking and driving. You can easily be over the legal limit and not be swerving all over the road. If you did nothing wrong than you shouldn't give a shit about being pulled over. Your attitude got you the ticket plain and simple.

Downtown in my city cops will be next to the bar/entertainment strip of town but they do not pull people over unless they are tipsy, having that cop constantly do this only in her bar could actually drive customers away from her business so it's good that you mentioned it, her customers can feel harassed.

I thought Disney security guards policed your city?

$100 bucks? Damn, either you haven't gotten a ticket in a while or we get seriously ass-raped here in CA compared to NY. Got a ticket from a traffic camera a while back for $971.00.

WHAT!? are you fucking serious?
Somebody better be dead for a G!

CA is expensive. My very first ticket was in 1994, I was doing 82 in a 25 zone, driving along the beach in Carlsbad at 2am. Cost just shy of $1200.00.

I got out of the $971.00 traffic camera ticket, since I didn't run the red, I was inching around the corner in a right turn lane and the camera took my picture. but, it still was bullshit taking the time to go to court.

My 1st traffic camera ticket was probably around 1996 and it was for $371.00, plus an additional $30.00 to the courts for the privilege of taking traffic school and another $25.00 for the school.

How do you know what they stop them for? You don't, and I bet they stop a lot of people that are sober too.

because the next time they come into the bar, they talk about the same cop pulling them over every damn day and it's like harassement and it's getting annoying coming into the bar, etc...

He parks literally right outside the bar....and as soon as a car leaves the parking lot, he turns on the sirens....I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with that...

When you say there's nothing wrong with it, what do you base your information on? you a cop?

I'm not but I have a lot of cop friends BBMed one and guess what they are with in there legal right to do so. Drinking and driving is not like other laws reasonable suspicion is all that is needed. FYI driving is not a right it's a privilege that's why you take a test etc. You got a mighty big chip on your shoulder dude need to get it in check.
