Police Stories

[wtom]

I just remembered a couple months ago I was leaving a friend's place after a house party. It was like 3am. I wasn't WOT-ing it but I wasn't granny driving either. I didn't even know a cop car was behind me til the cherries went on. I was thinking, "fark, was I speeding?"

He came back with my license/registration, asked me if I had any alcohol, and then suggested I don't accelerate so fast ... and to have a good night. :D

I was wearing a shirt and tie too, don't know if that had anything to do with "profiling" of sorts. ;)

Moral of the story; if you've got aftermarket intake/headers/exhaust on your car, lay off the accelerator as you pass them or drive by them!

That's crazy. And when you got pulled over, was it "spirited" driving or just cursing?

btw, hows the exhaust tone with the intake vs without?

I was actually stopped at a light and he was on the other side stopped waiting for it to go green. I went through slow. He stayed stopped. Then as I passed him (still stopped at the light) he did a u turn and flicked on his cherries. I must have been driving for 5 seconds by him when he pulled me over. He didn't even ask for my lic, reg or insurance. He just said out of the car. Go to my partner at the cruiser and they told me to get in the back. Before I did they searched me for goodies and then gave me the gears then the breathalyzer when I passed he said go get on your way. When I asked what I did wrong he said get out of here. Again I asked what I did wrong and he said... I told ya to get out of here.

So I did. Keep er nice and easy like wtom said when going near cops.

Every other time I have just been driving and they follow me to where I am going. When I park they come up and ask for my papers and always let me go on my way. I think they expect someone else to get out of the car... I usually have a shirt and tie on too for work.

Anyways... I had my intake first. So I can't comment on how it sounded diff. All I know is I can't even hear my intake now. Exhaust over powers it.

The one time I call pulled, i was going west along king, saw the cruiser at bathurst, when i passed he made a left onto king (on a red non the less) and follow me till the next nights. lol.. like I didn't see him. Anyways, he said "Your lucky it wasn't one of my fellow officers that pulled you over, they'd give you a ticket for that exhaust"

If your nice and don't give an sarcastic like remarks, they won't give you too much trouble.

though telling you to get out of the car without reason was a bit much. Don't know how I'd handle being treated like that. They got my dad out of the car once and searched him, hands on the roof, the whole nine yards. Some guys are just real pricks.

Feel free to share your experiences with GTA's "best."

I'm mainly starting this thread to merge some posts from an exhaust thread over in Performance section. :)

Are you suggesting that we got off topic? :p

I've got a warning ticket from Indiana for driving 80 mph in a 70 mph zone. I think the cop just wanted to inspect the car and see if we looked like drug dealers or something.

Do they even have warning tickets in Ontario??

[Whos ur dadd]

It was a Friday around 1:30 in the early morning and I came to a stop at some deserted (or so I thought) intersection in North Markham. Hmmm, looks deserted, so I turn off the traction control on the bimmer and wait anxiously for the light. Light turns and I gun it. As I pass a small strip plaza, I realize there's a cop behind a large snow bank. Perfect hiding spot.

The cherries go on. I'm already going at a decent clip already and the cop has quite a lot of snow to get through to get onto the street. He's going to lose some valuable time due to the poor traction, trying to bring himself up to speed from a standing stop. I decide to make a run for it and floor it. Ah, the stupidity of turning off the traction control catches up to me. My car begins to fishtail and I am weaving across all four lanes of the deserted roadway. When I thought I could catch my tail and bring it back around, I over-correct and end up doing a 360. By this time the cop is slowly catching up to me. I'm on the other side of the road, facing the wrong direction so I decide to come to a stop. The cop stops his cruiser in front of me and approaches my car. Standing behind my door, he yells at me to get out of the car. I can see one hand of his resting on his gun.

I get out of my car. I am dressed nicely in a suit and three-quarter length overcoat, just coming back from a gala charity dinner. I think my style of dress and casual demeanor calms him down. He removes his hand from his gun. Just as he starts talking in a stern voice, "What the hell do you think…", I quickly kick him in the nuts. He falls to his knees, with a terrible grimace on his face. I quickly run around him and put the Randy Macho Man Savage Sleeper Hold on him. A couple of minutes later, he passes out from the lack of oxygen to his brain. I strip him of his pants and underwear and cuff him to his cruiser. I leave his socks and shoes on as it is bitterly cold and it would be very cruel to deprive him of those items. As I walk away from the limp body, I yell, "Don't mess with TheWUD." And I drive off.

True story.

Huh?

I've been let off the hook once on Fischer Halman doing 20 - 40 over, and passing on a full yellow line. The cop didn't notice I had a radar. Long story short he thought I was some kid they were searching for racing around the area I was in (I wasn't it, some Talon or something). Mom's sleeper accord saved my hook that night.

But chief, what do you mean they're corrupt, do tell!

when you hang out with the boys from active towing....they tell you some ****ed shit

Waterloo, exiting 85, going south on King, 2 in the morning
I'm tired, its a tuesday night
An unmarked crusier tailgates me, I couldn't tell if it was a cop or what.
He pulls me over, saying I was doing 25km/h over. I'm like "can you please let me off this one time, I just wanted to go home, I just live down the street".

Officer: "Coming back so late on a tuesday morning?"
Me: "Yeah, some family problems to deal with, thats why im so out of it".
Officer: "Ohh i see i see, new car?"
Me: "yeah, relatively new, my old car was a 1991 protege, so don't think im some spoiled brat".
Officier: "King is only a 50 (or is it a 60?) zone, be more carefuly when you get off the highway, I know that this car is probably more powerful than your old car".
Me: "Yeah, I'll be more careful sir". and yeah...
nicest cop ever. An RSX gets pulled over on columbia in less than 2 minutes.
