I hope your kidding? You must be out your mind to think that's how shit works. Haha man was that funny to see!!!
In general, its the truth.
Yeah, the cops are pretty cool up in loomis... They never gave me a problem.. Even with my loud ass exhaust and gettin sidewayz leaving taylors burgers..
Whats funny is Loomis has some of the most strict cops out there. Not much happens so they hammer people that do the small law breaking to make up for it. Taylors ftw

I know that the plate isn't going to get on there by itself, I would prefer not to drill holes in the front bumper, especially once I am done restoring it. Even if I do dot my "I's" and cross my "T's" it doesn't mean that I won't get pulled for some "reason".
Now that I live in Dallas, I haven't been pulled over or had a ticket since I left Califonia, police don't even look at me. Now back in my home town they would break their necks to stare me down.
Don't get me wrong I do respect the jobs of law enforcement, just not when their out to harass people.
The bay area is a lot worse about random pull overs than other areas of California.
I was pulled over ~20 times in my coupe when I lived in HMB and drove to SJ and back a lot. I received 1 ticket which was for barking 2nd and 3rd leaving a red light, just had shitty tires and shifted quickly.
Now that I live in ventura county I hardly ever get pulled over, the only ticket I've had in the past few years was my wifes car received a no front plate ticket while her `08 GT was parked in front of her friends house. Talk about a bored cop...
I hear you Blind, I guess when you grow up/live in a small town with a modded Mustang you're bound to get messed with. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't like I always drove like an angel, but even when I wasn't doing anything wrong they would pull me over or follow me out of town.
It got to the point where I would pass a local LEO going the other way and he would turn around, I would immediately pull over.
I've met my fair share of really cool LEO's and have met my share of LEO's that I felt abused their badge.

I got pulled over driving down a residential street. The cop was going the opposite way then turned around didn't even get out of his car. He told me on the speaker "I don't know if your aware but the front Lisence plate monster ate your front lisence plate". Then he pulled up next to me & said "drive safe" then left haha

I forgot about this one. I pull out of a driveway on story n king "hekka traffic" so i roll off the curb "accidently" and screech tire, As that happened I see a cop 6cars behind and he saw me in traffic so I try to loose him in traffic being that he didn't have his sirens on. I'm doing the speed limit, using my blinker, and I shake him within a distance bettween one traffic light I make a right into the backstreets and ran a stop sign did a couple zig zags through the block and the fucker comes out of nowhere behind me, he turns his lights on I pull over he comes calmly and says dl and registration with a smirk.
he got me with 38 in a 25 and stop sign ticket.
I fought it in court because he didn't actually see me he just assumed I was speeding and ran the stop sign based on how far ahead of him I was. Even tho I did run the stop sign but wasn't speeding
When I pull up to homestead court there's another 5.0 in the parking lot and I end up talking to the annoying Guy inside I didn't say I had a 5.0 because I didn't wanna relate to him LOL he's saying my tail light wasn't out but it was "I saw it" but I just agreed with the Guy he had one bulb working on his 3rd brake light anyways I go up to the judge and the officer reads his report and the whole time my girl tells me he's silently cheering throwing up his arms whispering yea 5.0, he almost got away etc. He got warned by the judge to calm down. LOL
In the end I'm found guilty and i think i paid $648 [ April 06, 2012, 11:29 PM: Message edited by: Stangn5oh ]

I got pulled over after I stopped to say "hello" to a girl (and a few girlfriends of hers)I know. I drive off to go home and a cop stopped me. He gets out and his partner was behind to my right watching me. And he asked if I was trying to pick up these girls. He thought I was some "John" looking for some action! I say I know her and was saying "hi". He tells me there's girls as young as her prostituting themselves around the area. Then, he let me go.

Even more amazing how many officers do it illegally because most people don't know any better!
Your above statement makes no sense. If an officer asks you on a traffic stop, "Hey do you have anything illegal on you or in your car?" and you respond, "No." and then the officer says something to the effect of, "So you don't mind if I search your car or your person?" and then you say, "No, go ahead." It's clearly not illegal. In fact, it would be a consent search. It's up to you, to say, "No, I don't want you to search my car or my person". Furthermore, if you give consent and an officer begins to search you or your car, you can withdraw that consent at anytime. Again, case law and courts have upheld many consent searches under the same scenario.
If a person is on parole/ probation with search terms, it does not matter if a person does not want to consent to a search. There are also provisions for people out on bail or O/R. Furthermore, if you have someone in your car who is on probation/parole with search terms, an officer can search the car that way too.
If an officer walks up to your driver/passenger side window and smells marijuana, sees a pipe sitting on the floor...ect it's another way to search a car.
If a driver fails to produce a driver license or registration, an officer can search the car in the area the registration or driver license would likely be... Glove box, center console, under the seats, rear seat and in some cases the trunk... more less the whole car.
If a person a driver is arrested and a vehicle is towed, an inventory search must be done in many circumstances...
There is also always a warrant too. I'm sure I am forgetting something. However, my point to all this is, there are more than enough ways to use the tools already provided to law enforcement that we do not have to go around breaking laws and violating the rights of citizens. There have been times when I have had no lawfully authority or consent to search and I know/believe there is something, but have been told to pound sand. That's no problem, I don't take it personal. I just move on to the next.
At the end of the day, it's just a job and I'm out having fun. It's like fishing or a cat and mouse game. However, I can assure you I am not going to violate the trust the public puts in me to do my job lawfully and I am definitely no going to risk losing my house, car, ect in Federal Court because I want to search your car and have no lawful authority to do so.
