Yep. I know that feeling well.

I found that your chances of being stopped drop drastically if you don't make eye contact. Just hold the wheel with both hands visible, smile, and look straight ahead.

Also, try your best not to be black.

My friend and i had the cops called on us while driving today. We are pulled over by two cops saying they were called saying we were drinking beer while driving. we hand the officer the bottle of cream soda. He laughs his ass off then says the lady that called is a dumb ass, tells us to have a nice day and leaves.

It's like that feeling I get when I return home from a friend's house and I worry my mom will find out I was smoking. I don't smoke.

I like my apartment building, because I have my own drug dealer. He just hangs out out front of my apartment building, and every morning when I come down to go get a snapple, he'll go, "Hey, man, you want some weed?" I'm like, "Do you have Snapple? Cuz I think you should sell Snapple." That way he hooks you in, he's like "If you like snapple, you might also like crack." It'd be like Amazon.com, "If you enjoy Snapple, you might also enjoy balloons of Heroin."

I instinctively tap the brakes every goddamn time I see a cop, even if I'm 5 mph under the limit.

What I should have said was nothing.... What I did say was "You'd be surprised..."

There is nothing you can say after that, "See you around the building!"

I tend to actually want a cop to pull me over at that point. I always play through in my head the back and forth:

"Do you know why I pulled you over?"- Nope! "You were speeding." - The fuck I was! I was going exactly 2.3 miles under the speed limit.

Sounds cooler when I think about it in my car. Sadly, I never do get pulled over when I'm not speeding.

I'm 15, I don't drink, I don't do drugs, I don't even think there's a pirated movie or stolen pack of gum to my name, and yet I still freak when I see a cop.

Typhun · 8 months

That happened to me last week. Then he pulled me over and ticketed me because I had a light out. Walked around my car a few times looking for problems, but couldn't find anymore. What a jackass.

I have that feeling every time. I've had it since I first got my licence and passed by my first cop, and continue to have to this day without fail every single time.

Sakonosolo · 8 months

When I stop my car and know I'm going to be stopped for a while I instinctively unbuckle my seatbelt. I've been pulled over one time, though I didn't get a ticket (amazing, since I didn't have my proof of insurance), and the cop saw my seatbelt was off and said I should wear it. Another time I stopped to call someone for directions and unbuckled and a cop pulled up behind me to see what was wrong. He also told me that I should wear my seatbelt. Scary shit.

Being underaged for a full license, and without the option to apply for a hardship permit in my state, you can not imagine the fear that comes over me when a cop nears me. I always try to make a detour as quick as possible.

This is a big problem in America. It shouldn't be a joke. You're more likely to have your freedom and/or life taken away by an out of control cop than any terrorist. They write chicken-shit tickets to support their salaries and huge operating budgets, and they use fear to regulate even law abiding people, since they can still take it all away in a second. And that's what the real joke is: people don't even consider whether or not these police should exist, or have this level of power, that's just a forgone conclusion. All we can really worry about is whether or not we'll survive the whims of these brutal fetishistic monsters.

And I can't even image how bad it is for the blacks.

AmatureHour · 8 months

I have driven with friends that almost swerve off the road because a cop is coming in the opposite direction and driver does not have seat belt on and kneejerks to get it on ASAP before they pass the cop. Like the cop is gonna 180 in the middle of a busy street and chase you down because you did not have your seat belt on.

Okay, so what's up with that? Why do we get apprehensive as we pass a cop, or as we walk through the theft detector posts right before we leave a store? I know that I'm not stealing anything, but I still get nervous at the thought that those things will go off.
