Friggin' JBTs
So, there I was cruising down the highway minding my own business when I get the disco lights in my rear view mirror.
I pull over knowing immediately that my rights were being violated and starting to nudge into oppression territory.
Then the Highway Patrolmen asked me if there was any reason why I wasn't wearing my seatbelt.
At the same time he asked me for my DL, insurance and registration. I gave him everything except the registration.
As it turns out, it had expired just recently...like four months ago. Well, Mister Bigshot walks back to his vehicle and makes
me sit out in the damn hot sun while he does his "thing."
Sure enough, he walks up all polite and everything and then hands me a warning on the seatbelt and registration. He then
asks me to stop by the county office and get my tags re-registered.
Yeah - right. Go infringe on someone else's rights.
He was just working for the FEMA Citizen Oppression Identification Team - United States. (FEMA COITUS)
Now that they know who you are, you've been assigned to a FEMA concentration camp.
Resistance is futile.
Your avatar got lucky.
go try that shit driving through nueces county
fucking seatbelt tickets are up to damned near $300

Something unheard of happened to within the month. My 4Runner's inspection was newly out of date. A VA State Trooper pulled me over, and gave me the lecture. I told him that I didn't drive this often (due to also having a Prius), and that I'm actually going to my mechanic today for an inspection, and did have an appointment (VA law disallows inspection appointments, but it's good to check workload). He might have had a 'no shit, this guy's being honest' moment when he ran my license and saw that I did indeed have an alternate car and the story was at least believable.
He let me go... VSP has a rep of NEVER letting you go...

I was getting ready to remind him that I pay his salary.
Lucky for him, he finished up his oppression of me before I had a chance to whip that out.
You got lucky with the warning. No warnings for SB violations from the state revenuers here.

You got away with it because they have gold fringe on the police station flag and he knew it.
that was pretty close to being an unlawful detention
The only reason why he stopped you, was to plant a GPS device on it for future use.

So if you are polite and respectful to the LEOs, they are polite and respectful back? Geeeez, who'd thunk it.....

But they only ticket you for a seatbelt violation after they stop you for another violation.
Right?
Next time, ask repeatedly "Am I being detained? Am I free to go?"
He will just give up and let you go, and you won't have to leave your car.

I was sitting at a stop sign, out in the country, when one of those bastards drove past, and actually had the gall to wave. Can you believe that? I'm sitting at a stop sign, which if I hadn't seen him would have run, and he waves to me.

While screaming "Stop stealing my money officer!" and banging your head on the windshield. That always helps.

Dammit.

Needs more stick

He gave me a warning! That's an implied threat!

if you can prevent just one other person from having to deal with this the country will be better off.
That same fucker got me the other night.
I was on the way home from an out of town job with some employees and we were talking about all the cops we saw on the road. We agreed that we didn't want to get stopped by a state trooper because those fuckers don't let shit slide. They're
professional and reasonable, but JBTs; if they stop you, you're getting a ticket.
An hour or so later, we were going through a known gauntlet where we often spotted three po-lice within a mile or two. We counted a city cop and a countie mountie and were wondering where the other one was hid out. Then he lit me up from behind.
It was a state trooper.

I knew I was fucked. I was right. He gave me a warning for a license plate light out. Bastard JBT.

I hear ya, man. That registration bullshit is unconstitutional. The founding fathers would have mentioned it specifically if they were serious.
Another scofflaw gets lucky

No shit. If I get one more in Brazos county it might be felony. I've got one from the same officer twice.
Ahh the well uniformed tax collector, yes I've met a few in my day..
While I loathe laws that make you use safety equipment....
Why would anyone drive around WITHOUT wearing their seatbelt??

My wife's months old registration cost me over $300. Had it been a seatbelt too, they might have taken her to jail. Such a criminal.
Flashed your TPF mod badge didja.

What if he asked you for a raise?

I know. The topic that COULD have gone here in GD was probably much more important. A dinner pic, or snake I.D. thread. Shit, maybe a thread about a guy eating another guys face off! Haven't had one of those in minutes!!!!!
