Most cops won't give you a hard time if you don't give them a hard time.

In all honesty, the last 3-4 times I've been pulled over in the past couple years I've been polite and walked away with a verbal warning.

Or it was just another cop looking to meet his "performance measures" and looking for drunk drivers and I did something stupid like a rolling stop or not signaling a turn on 4th of July at 11pm. (Both these times I was told to have a good night and to drive safe.)

Do I blame them for it? Nah. If you want to live in the system, you work by the system.

Its that bad few that give the majority a bad name.
Can be guys exploiting the system, green cop with a chip on his shoulder, the idiot sleeping in his patrol car every night, whatever.

They're a minority and unfortunately the way things work with the media and everything else, it makes everyone else look bad.

Yes, that was praising the police from a raging lunatic liberal jack@$$ idiot.

Thank you........LIKWID

I always said if you want to make friends join the fire department. If you don't care about how many friends you have, become a cop.

TEASER your neck of the woods must be a jungle huh!

I remember a black female joining the New Orleans, Lousaisiana police deprtment years ago being asked why she joined when the starting pay was only $13,000.00 a year, and she replied to Morley Safer, "for the graft, what do you think".
