You're an ass hole but that goes without saying. Did I mention that all cops (government minoins)are ass holes.

Dammit Bluedreaux, I was about to challenge him to a spelling contest.

Only way a cop is going to search my car, is with a warrant. As I told an officer from the ASO last year who wanted to search my truck for drugs, he could look if he got a warrant.
He said it might take awhile. I told him I was retired, had a bottle of water and a book to read, and to make his call.
He was a real azzwipe about it, but sent me on my way with no search.

Cops have a tough job in the world we live in today,...and it's going to get much tougher as time passes.

They can be a pain in the butt,...no doubt about it,...but I suspect I'd soon turn into a pain in the butt too if I had their job.

In fact,...I doubt that I could do their job, period.

I'd go nuts on some [bleep] someday. I don't have a hell of a lot of patience.

Cop PA: Driver, pull to the curb.

Swampman: What's the deal, officer?

Cop: That hat you're wearing falls into the wonky catagory.

Swampman: It ain't no wonkier than yours!

Cop: That tears it!,...Get out the car,..stand on one leg and recite the book of Revelations while dribbling these two basketballs!

I had a Nebraska State Trooper pull me over recently. He asked for all the usual B.S., which I supplied.

"Do you know why I pulled you over?"
"I have no idea"
"Your front license plate is missing"
"My son backed into my car last night and broke the cheap plastic rivets holding it on, here it is. Is my rear plate missing too?"
"No, but you have to have both on"
"I need to find someone with the special plastic rivets, so I can reattach them. The dealer doesn't seem to have any right now, I called them this morning."
It's your responsibility to have them properly displayed at all times. I could have your car towed for not having proper plates displayed".
"Well, I am trying to make the repair, but need parts".
"Your insurance card is expired (oops!)".
"I must have forgotten to put the new card in the glovebox, I have other copies at home".
"You're not listed on the state insurance registry, are you sure you even have insurance?".
"Call my agent, her numbers on the card, she'll straighten everything out".
"It's not my responsibility, it's yours, where are you going?"
"Home, I just got off work".
"Where do you work, is there anyone who can vouch for you?"
"Do you want the number to call?"
"No, do you mind if I search your car?"
"For what reason? Do you have probable cause of a crime to search my car?"
"No, it's just routine"
"Then your answer is no. You'll need a warrant to search my car".

He seemed bummed over that, and stalked back to his car, to come back a few minutes later.

"Here is a defect ticket for the license plate, and a ticket for no valid insurance, I could have your car towed for not having insurance or a front license plate"

I went home and called my agent, who called the state patrol and faxed them proof of insurance, so that ticket was dropped. The dealer had already ordered the stupid rivets, and the car was fixed two days later. The game wasn't over yet, I had to find a cop to sign off on my defect ticket. I found a city cop in a parking lot, parked the Explorer in such a way that he could see the front license plate was attached.

"Excuse me officer, could you please sign my ticket?"
He looks at the ticket and busts out laughing...
"You must have got a young one" Still laughing out loud.
"Here you go", and he signed the ticket. I realized later that he didn't even really look at the car at all. He was still laughing when I left.

Some good. Some, not so much... I've always hated dealing with the Nebraska State Patrol, too many of them deeply believe their own bullshit.

Hm. Got pulled over three times in the last 20 years, twice on the Interstate. One ticket for speeding, Dad forgot to tell me they put oversized tires on the truck. Was going 11 over and the trooper knocked it down to 10 so it wouldn't get reported for insurance.

Last time was for the license plate light being out while going past a university town on a holiday, pretext stop for drunk drivers which I don't mind. Was a legitimate stop. State law says you get a warning for the light being out.

Never was asked for proof of insurance, vehicle registration only when I got pulled over for speeding, and never asked to permit a vehicle search. Just a computer check on the plates and my license and a pleasant chat so they can get a sense if something funny is going on. The chat has lead to several dandy drug busts on the Interstate.

I love this state.

Coming from Illinois going toward Wisconsin. With his line of questioning I would say he was looking for drugs. After you answered all his questions correctly and without having different answers for the same question he found out you were harmless and left. It's a technique used to check for drug trafficking and you would be surprised how many good ol boys in pickups that run drugs out of Chicago. Not justifying what he did just telling you what happened.

I have to drive across Illinois often. Luckily, it's only about 130 miles across where I travel (I-64), so I gas up in Indiana or Missouri, and don't stop in Illinois except to take a leak. I leave them NO money, and not even any good will.

I can't stand the place, it's just space between where I am, and where I'm going.

Pizzing on the place is all I care to do with it.

I still don't know what it is.
