How many times you got pulled over on your dc's????

[Indie]

Look, if you don't redline your car around corners on public roads, you won't get pulled over. That's the easiest way to avoid trouble.

You think i cared that i lost?
I planned it all.
He wasted my time, so i made sure to waste his. I had an RDO the following day, got the roadworthy.. No problems piece of piss.

If they come to my window and give me attitude, i don't give a **** who you are, you have NO right to speak to me like that or anyone else like that.
Would you like it if some random abused you in the street? No. Why is a cop any different? Simple, he has a badge and gun. As they say, "im the judge, jury and in your case the executioner"

didnt you say your missus went to vicroads and cleared defects?

have to admit this is true, even if your not speeding it draws attention,

it's when they pick cars to pull over cause it's a quite day and they want action that pisses me off ,

this is turning into a new VENT thread lol

all good , any mooooore stories people ??? moving along???lol

didnt waste his time, he got paid for that, and then u wasted a few hours fixing defects, or you could of shut up, told him politely you werent speeding, he would calm down because u are calm... NOT sus ur car out... and you would be chilling on that RDO kicking back... I know what i would of done.



u just answered ur own question. BTW i wouldnt be suprised if they blacklisted ur plates.

do you honestly believe being "polite and nice" gets you out of it? All the time?
As i said, i've been pulled over before for a range of things, mainly random checks (had small things wrong at times)
If a police officer comes to my window (or when they speak to me out of the car), i will always be calm, & polite if they are the same to me.
Why should i be treated differently ? You still haven't answered my question tripleuse.

My plates aren't blacklisted, yes there is such a thing but "black listing" of plates goes only upon serious road offenders such as drink driving, drug driving, serious speeding offenses which cause impoundment etc etc Not petty offenses (indicator, speedin under 10km/h etc)

i completely agree but it was luck of the draw, only took the car out for first time in 2 weeks... shit happens i guess lol

didnt you say your missus went to vicroads and cleared defects?

i went to the mechanic, she took it to VicRoads, i had work the next day, she had the day off.
Sorry that i left that small detail out mocchi =)
Corrected now.

nothing to be sorry about, I was just being a lil bitch.

I don't know how old you are man but you learn there are times in life when, in the interests of self preservation, it is best just the shut the *uck up. If some dude that's 10x the size of you walks up to you in the pub and starts spouting rubbish for no reason and looks ready for a fight, what do you do? Try and calm him down and resolve the situation? No you say, you go right back at him, get in a fight, you get get absolutely pummelled. You come out with some 'pride' intact but have suffered the consequences. This is the perfect analogy to your encounter with the police. Others have said it and I agree - you probably wouldn't have gotten done for the defects if you weren't rude. Plus you were the guy who redlined it up to 60km/h. Hope you warmed your car up first btw :P

You guys also need to put yourself in the shoes of the policeman. If I have a passion for road safety and I see someone being a tool, I'm going to go and have a chat to him about it. I might scare him a little to try and stop him doing it again and let him off with a warning if he is remorseful. If he is a little wanker back to me I'm going to try and tear him a new one. I would, and so would you. Policeman are in the position of power and having anything more than a diplomatic discussion with them is not going to work out well. So lets all get over ourselves and back to the thread

got pulled over more in the evo

That's because the Evo is an actual sports car. Not that surprising.

been pulled over 5 times that were my fault... in particular going through a dead red (been red for 2 mins atleast) with a undercover on my arse..( silly i know) He became angry in his first 3 sentences called me a ****wit... dickhead dud, after i talked sensible to him admitting i was wrong, he also calmed down, sighed and said"i cant be ****ed just dont **** up again".Done other stupid shit and all cops have let me off.. maybe luck but being sensible and relaxed always goes further then being a smartarse. LOL blacklists can go on anything they want, they control it.My answer is: U act like a ****wit they will treat you like one, 2 wrongs dont make a right.. just because his yelling and being a "smartarse" doesnt mean you have to.

guess at the end of the day some cops will always be dicks on a power trip but if your cool, calm and collected they really don't have a reason to abuse you or talk to you in a rude way - and if they do, feel sorry for them.. probably uneducated and parentless sad cases who weren't raised right

i meant surprising for my integ, not the evo.

my integ isnt quite if u know what i mean

Yeah, that's what I mean. You get pulled over in the Evo because it's a high-performance sports car, and the Integra avoids attention because it's just a hot hatch.
