so i'm in a turn lane not paying much attention; see a cop up ahead and cars off to the side of the street i was going to turn onto and then i noticed cop at corner was pointing to those turning..WTF? accident to go around? newp..it's the 31st..what do they think people are doing on a wednesday morning at 10:33AM? I thought you couldn't 'just' stop someone, there had to be cause..must've been that awesome SOTU last night?

can someone tell me what's going on here?..i'm noticing this more and more.

as for myself? i'm about 5 cars away and simply pulled back out onto the highway..what fvckers!

Quotas.

Ask a cop if there is such a thing and they'll say, "Not really, but....."

i had a cop pull me over for speeding in this little trap of 1/4 of mile which turns from 45 to 30 and only one speed sign. I told the cop that and he laughed..'yeah that's a tricky area'..after he saw my name told me he 'had to give me something because leadership was all over them for not bringing enough in'..gave me a ticket for some crazy thing that was $10, 'because leadership is watching stops and if you radio in that you are making a stop, you better write a ticket'.

I know that FHP and probably local LEO can conduct either “Drivers License” or “Vehicle Safety Inspections” checkpoints. You have specific rights about what you can and have to say and present when they question you. Of course they are also looking for drugs/drinking. Don't know the legality of having dogs around to "open air sniff" around the veh, but probably allowed.

They pulled you over because you were speeding, you dumb b****h.
She knew exactly what the speeds were, even told the cop as such, and wonders why she was stopped and given a ticket. SOS stuck on stupid
