Cop story (no bashing, just funny)

Rone

I don't want this to turn into a cop bashing thread, but I'm glad you agree. I knew I wasn't crazy when I thought that his reaction was a bit much, justifiable, but a little over the top. Looking back at the situation, I can laugh at it, but it was happening I was like HOLY CRAP!

Hopefully I didn't open a can of worms with this thread.

Not trying to bash since we obviously need them! However, I have had many cops come up to my vehicle with their hand on their firearm, or with it already drawn. This makes me very bitter since I have not once ever been arrested, or had run ins with the law except for a few traffic violation. After your wife pulled away, did he say anything else to you?

In today's society, pulling over any car can be pretty dangerous for a police officer. Being sandwiched between two cars, even if there is plenty of room, makes it really difficult for the officer to know exactly what is going on, not to mention almost impossible to keep eyes on both people at the same time. Pulling over in front of the vehicle that is stopped is the safest method, easier for the office to watch both vehicles. As in every profession, you have the good, the bad and the ugly. Some are more laid back and friendly, others are all business.

He didn't say anything to me. He just gave her the warning ticket and we were on our way.

In case this kinda thing happens again, I'll definitely be more considerate. I understand there are lot of crazy folks out there and as a cop in the middle of nowhere with no partner you don't want to turn your back on people. I realize that now, but at the time I was confused as hell.
