I guess I'm lucky, but I've only ever been pulled over twice for things I actually did... The other times it was profiling for being a kid driving at night, when I was in highschool.
Once was for hopping a curb and driving over a median to make a u-turn because I got some road rage in rush hour traffic, I got a ticket for that. Thankfully no points on my license.
And once it was for doing burn outs... Right after I got my license with my GF at the time. I made up some BS story about how when I saw a police officer I got tense and got a bit friendly with the gas and let out the clutch too fast. When truth be told I didn't see him pull up behind me right as I pulled away from the stop sign leaving a trail of rubber smoke, I had been driving around doing that for about 45 minutes, haha. Anyways I thought I was totally slick when the cop walked back to his car I thought he was just going to let me go without a lecture or a ticket or anything. And he came back and asked me some more questions, and was like "So you've got a bum leg there champ, can't control the clutch? that's really the story you want to go with in front of your girl? C'mon don't bullshit me with that dumb *ss story". And then I fessed up and told the truth that I was just having fun, and he said "don't let me catch you being this dumb again" and let me off with a warning ticket that where the description of the violation is supposed to be written, it said "reckless driving/street racing/idiot." :lol:
I saved it because I thought it was funny. Since then I developed a sixth sense for cop detection.
