Ever been stopped by plain car for speeding?

[craigntx]

i mean a car that looks nothing like a cop car.
last time, im flyin down the fwy, between 80-90, doing the weave thing, i notice a late model blazer, almost keeping up. doing the same weaves and such, trying to keep up.
after a while i decide to chill out, im coming to an area know to be a speen trap.
the blazer pulls up next to me,he's got limo tint on the side, coupla lanes over, and i hear a weak siren.
i go ahead and pull over, pretty fast. fast enough the blazer pulls in front of me to stop. i get off the bike, 2 guys from the blazer get out in uniforms i dont quite recognize.
one says "federal customs agents" and asks me whats the hurry. says he has the right to search my bike for illegal contraband. do i have anything i shouldnt have, and HE WONT SEARCH. i say "well i got a permit for the glock under the seat".
they tell me to slow it down, get in their truck, and take off!

previous time, in my mustang 5.0, i swerve around a slower moving vehicle with heavy window tint, and accelerate on to work a short distance away. i pull up, the car behind me, and a guy gets out asking me why didnt i stop, as he had his badge up to the window.
i say i didnt see you man
he says he's gonna write this up, for me to slow down, gets in and takes off....

i bet most ppl wouldnt have even stopped in the first instance

stopped by a camaro, honda accord lowered with rims and bodykit, hummer h1, etc etc. the cops like to pick on the street racers using cars that dont look like cop cars .. one time my radar went nuts when i was driving next to a trans am... sure enough it ended up being a cop because he lit it up and went after the bike that flew by me.

Yep , got stopped several weeks ago . Passed a new Tahoe with tint . Was doing 70 in a 55 . He rode my azz for a while before he turned on the "hidden" blue lights in the grill . Was a SLED agent , South Carolina Law Enforcement Department . He let me go because he said he didn't have a "book" with him and to write me a ticket , he'd have to haul me into the closest office .

Cool guy , we talked for a while !

I'm in with some of the cops in the county where I work; I know all of their undercover cars thanks to the tips

...pretty much anything they've seized in a bust that's newer, they tint the windows real dark (illegal for the rest of us here in VA) and you don't know it's a cop 'til it's too late...lots of Tahoes here too...

We saw a cool undercover cop car on our trip back from FL last winter; can't recall what state we were in, but it was a Roush Mustang...it was nice!

 

[Charlesbusa]

Nope, marked cop cars only for me.

In my town there's a pearl white Charger with tints - the town I work in has a black one.

but couldnt ya just say you thought it was a psycho/terrorist and were in fear of your life. and 'cause you didnt see any flashers, and there have been cases of idiots impersonating the police, you didnt know theyre cops?
but then theyre gonna radio ahead to a marked car, unless you can get off the fwy and make lotsa turns

Yeah , a hot chick could get away with that !

 

[craigntx]

there was a lady years ago that was chased down the freeway by some drunken cops, coming home from a strip club in houston. her name was ida lee delaney, she had cut them off on the fwy.
they shot and killed her when she stopped. she was scared and saw a highway repair trck, pulled up behind them thinkin she'd be safe, but got shot. i believe she might've been packin.
i had thought that plain cars couldnt do this shat anymore, that they'd changed policy....

I got stopped by a Pontiac Grand Prix while doing 120-130 in my camaro. He wrote the ticket up for 64 in a 55. Nice guy, things could have been worse. It looked nothing like an unmarked car untill I passed it and the headlights flashed with red and blue lights in the grill area.

 

[Juggler]

Yep. It was a Sheriff in a maroon Durango. I was going way too fast during the July 4 weekend, but I was cool, so he was cool.

He let me off. I think my wife was more pissed that I was let off than if I had gotten a ticket.

I just got pulled over last week. I was doing the speed limit, 30 mph. I had my throttlemeister on and my hands were behind me. I saw a marked car on the side and thought nothing of it. I was doing the speed limit. A few seconds later and unmarked blue sedan hits the grill lights and pulls me over. He asked if I knew why I was being stopped and I said honestly no.

Well it turns out it against the law to be riding a motorcycle with no hands?

I said I wasnt aware of it. He let me off with a warning.

 

[schroetf]

why can't they just leave us alone----
