*POLL* Have you ever been stopped by the police?

[Lonyo]

POLL ^^

 

[new2AMD]

you really want to keep this discussion going?

 

[40Hands]

Yes but only once for doing 47 in a 30. I was speeding up for a 50mph sign just ahead of me. I knew the cop and he let me off with a warning and a lecture.

 

[ggnl]

many times, for many reasons...

Is there a point to this poll?

 

[Baked]

Yeah, there's this one time I rolled right through a stop sign w/o even slowing down. They put up a new stop sign and I totally didn't see it. Went to court date, cop didn't show up. My record is clean, bitch!

 

[George P Burdell]

Why must you ask such evil things?

 

[IceBergSLiM]

i've been pulled over dozens of times. my heart doesn't even speed up anymore when i see the lights in my mirror.

 

[Atheus]

Pulled over, arrested, etc numerous times.

 

[K1052]

Twice for speeding and once for a rolling stop.

Now that I live in Chicago I expect I won't be pulled over unless I'm doing 120mph , on fire, and snorting a line off the dash.

 

[astrosfan90]

Three times while driving (speeding), once while urinating in public.

Oh, and while living in Argentina, once while sitting on a street corner with a friend of mine talking at 3am. Apparently from a distance we looked like vagrants.

 

[goatjc]

It would have been a bit more interesting if the poll was "Pulled over | Pulled over and arrested | Just plain arrested."

 

[MrDingleDangle]

yep...numerous times, sometimes my fault, other times not

again what is the point of this poll?

 

[sash1]

yes, many times, never for speeding.

what is the point of this poll? most people voting "yes" probably were just speeding

[FoBoT]

yes:

1982 - accident (does that count? i was already smashed into the telephone pole, not exactly "pulled over")

1984 - speeding (again, i pulled into a gas station when i passed him going too fast, he turned around and pulled into the gas station and gave me a ticket)

1994 - didn't have my NY safety inspection up to date, got a written warning

2005 - right headlight was out, got a verbal warning

2006 - front license plate was not attached, got a verbal warning

 

[wheresmybacon]

WTB reason for pohl

 

[Canai]

Never been pulled... I guess I'm a good driver.

 

[Imported]

Twice for speeding, another 4 times for them wanting to make sure my car was in compliance of the law and crap. Those 4 times was back when I had a lowered Civic and what not and street racing was being majorly cracked down on. They'd pull over cars that didn't have their hubcaps on if it looked like it could be a street racer..

That said, only got those 2 speeding tickets.

 

[chambersc]

Yes, both times were for speeding. Total of 1 ticket earned.

 

[nageov3t]

yeah, about a year ago.

the horn on my car broke while driving it to the point where it wouldn't stop honking. I drove over to my mechanic immediately, but on the ride there, the horn was blaring the whole way... a cop pulled me over I guess to check if I was having a psychotic episode or something. lol. he didn't believe me about the horn till I turned off the car, walked a few week back, and it kept on blaring.

 

[Captante]

Lots of times ... all but one or two I was caught speeding. (or other moving violation)
