Before I begin to explain my situation, I just want to say two things:
1) I shouldn't have had it in the car
2) I shouldn't have been smoking while driving
I know if I did at least rule 1 this can be avoided, but the fact is it happened so I'm looking for guidance, I don't mean to say all this to sound obnoxious or rude I just want posts that apply to the present.
I was driving home from work around 6:05pm and I was smoking a bowl out of one of my real small bongs. GF just had her gall bladder removed an hour prior so I wanted to get stoney and visit her. Came up to a red light in which I had to turn right. I must have rolled through the red light, I didn't really notice to be honest. Twenty seconds later I see a motocycle cop flashing his lights, I pull over.
I stayed calm and didn't panic terribly. I wasn't sure what to do with my bong so I put it under the passenger seat (water was new but probably leaked all over). I had only taken one hit so I was still sober (not legally, but I have a high tolerance).
Cop tells me I ran the light, I gave him my info then he says, "Why do I smell marijuana in here," I blank, and say, "I don't know," he just repeats what I say. Then I said, "I use it as medicine," and he asked for my legals, so I handed him my Medicann physician note.
"What is the reason for this?" he said.
*Now I do have a personal reason that I'd rather not tell but I will say it has something to do with between my legs, honestly.
I pointed at that region and said its pretty personal, and he asked me to get out of the car. I rolled up my window, locked my door, and began to roll up the passenger window and he told me to stop.
He calls another officer who is a fucking prick. He looks at the recommendation and asks what do I need it for. I went into detail with him. He made a comment about marijuana killing sperm...
Then the original officer begins to search my car. He finds my stash (like 2 grams), my bong, grinder, and a illegal firework I forgot I even had. He begins to write my ticket up and the other prick looks at the firework and says, "Does it feel better down there when you light this off too?" smiling. I was pissed, but just looked at him and didn't say anything.
Hands me ticket and all my paperwork, tells me when the court date is and where; I go on about my day...frustrated. I was charged for the firework, running a red light, and possession of marijuana. Any suggestions?
