Why was I pulled over?

(Click here to view the original thread on the MassCops Message Board)


Posted by: Unregistered

A police officer pulled up next to my car and rolled his window down, so I rolled my down as well. He said something I didn't understand, then rolled up his window so I drove away. A second later he was behind me with his sirens on, and he told me it was an arrestable offense for me to have driven away from him. I told him I didn't know he was pulling me over until he came up behind me with his sirens on. I ended up with a ticket for $50 - "harsh noise" (honking)
I had beeped my horn in a parking lot at a driver right before the police officer pulled up next to me and rolled down his window. What exactly happened here? I really didn't know I did anything wrong. Should I request a court hearing or did I deserve this ticket?

When I first came on the job the midnight guys would have a "red car night", "blue car night" etc.

If you were driving one of these colors you would get stopped after 2am. Made the nights go by and it wasn't that easy to find a certain color at that hour.

Maybe it was a variation of this method that got you stopped.

Why was I pulled over?

Very simple and I will be nice you F**KED UP !!!

I would strongly suggest you appeal the citation.... Appeal EVERY citation and don't settle with the magistrates decision should he/she find in favor of the officer, take it all the way to the judge!



Posted by: Sniper

He pulled you over because you are (Please insert your RACE here). Tell the judge that when you go in.

...Check off box #2 on the back of the ticket, mail it in with the envelope that was provided and then tell your story to the clerk magistrate when you get your court date. If your story is accurate and doesn't smell of too much bullshit, you will be found "NR" (not responsible) and you can go on with your day. If you have a comlaint again the officer, don't air your dirty laundy here, file it with the proper department.

You probably honked at his girlfriend/wife/daughter/mistress/mother/boyfriend/husband/etc..... and he didn't like it.

Very good 5-0!

I'm thinking the officer problably stopped you for the offense of being an absolute dumbsh*t. Appeal the ticket and when you go in for appeal say he stopped you for nothing and that he is a facist pig. That should get the desired result. (at least the one I want you to get)

5-0 speaks on behalf of all of us here at masscops.com - thanks buddy

I am registered now (I asked the initial question) but I will not post again after this so don't bother banning me.
I did not think I was bitching; I saw this "ask a cop" forum as an opportunity to find out if I had truly done something illegal and should simply pay the ticket.
Some of us are actually trying to be good people and abide by the law. I don't understand where the harshness of some of your replies comes from.
Thank you very much to those of you who responded kindly.

Jascinda

Simple answer: Honking (unless it's going to be a cataclysmic accident) is a no-no...in most states.

I knew I should have posted the disclaimer "For OUR entertainment purposes only"

Sorry Jascinda

Jus' for shits and giggles, why did you beep at the other driver?



Posted by: jascinda

Okay folks. I beeped at the driver because he was about to back into me.
From what I've learned here, the cop pulled me over because I'm attractive, and he felt like having a little chat with me. And because he was a dirtbag, as you say. I am model from Brazil here with dual citizenship, here in US for only several years now though. This is the 7th time I have been pulled over for thing i do not believe are illegal. Honking? illegal? I have never been in an accident, I have never speeded, I am good driver but I am always pulled over!
I do not understand this country which feels like a police state to me, not a democracy! and I cannot wait to go home!
I hope I have entertained you all again since that is what it seems I am good for here in america!



Posted by: Gil

Don't let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya, have a safe trip home!

This just proves my theory that everyone is smart and beautiful on the internet.
