dude that blows, i commute to school in newark nj an if im going home at night i run red lights like its my job, have passed right in front of newark cops, bike an truck they dont care haha

 

Where in Newark? I came outta Rutgers. You're right, though, Newark local cops have way more to do than to bust you for traffic violations. However, I must have run up about a books worth of tint tickets when I had to run through check points around the side streets around MLK.

 

hehe, let me tell you brother , you can knock the snot out of someone with a hard hat..been on the swinging end of that, when ironworkers get pissed , ya pick up what ever is with in reach.i got kicked off of a jobsite for two days for that one...

 

no the best situation is def when they ask "can i search the car"

no, you cant, sir

they get soo pissed.

show me a warrant and you can search it,

I have the dog coming on the way (lie)

um idc, show me a search warrant...

why is there something illegal in the car?
No, there is not, sir (its on me and you allready patted me down! so there is no point in searching the car) lol jk...

 

"I have a dog on the way"
Great response: Oh good! I have dog biscuits I wanna try before giving them to Sparky!

 

man i have a good one for the dog......so while i was still in HS my dog (i wasn't PD just a trainer/owner) was registered charlston PD. he only worked when thier dogs went to yearly quarantine so i was the handler and the cop with no dog was....well the cop. so any way got stopped for a bs noise pollution charge on the Blvd and the cop wanted to search the car. of course i said no (cause there was weed in it lol) and he gave the same response. "well the dogs on its way and if it smells somethin we have prob cause." so i pulled out my dogs badge and said well dont waste the time i have one right here and told Taz to come up front. you should've seen his face when he realized it wasnt one of thier 70lb germ sheps it was a 125 doberman! he jumped back and said please don't let him out of the car just have a nice day. LMAO and even if the k-9 unit did show up i worked with them all at the training days anyway and they wouldve just laughed.

 

TOrrent up the old "How to Not get Arrested" video. Its still floating around out there. Covers just about everything you mentioned up there, including dealing with the dogs.

 

Only took me 2 1/2 weeks to get pulled over on my bike. I sped up to get through a yellow light. There wasn't much traffic and I didn't want to sit there for five minutes waiting for a car to come because the sensor couldn't see me. Cop was sitting right there. I thought I was screwed cause I didn't have my class M yet, but after running my license, he just told me to watch the lights better and be safe.

 

Here in MO there's a law that says if you sit through two complete traffic light cycles and you don't get a green you can proceed through the red as long as it's safe to do so. You might want to inquire with the locals about that in your state.
