    The cops are mainly out on the weekends here, which is when I'm working...so I don't normally get pulled over.

    You must be special. Nothing more. Been on P's for ~ a year, drive a Commodore, and have the red P plates displayed. Haven't been pulled over once.

    Another "cops pulled me over" whinge thread.


    My car has a big bodykit, loud bloody stereo, 19" rims, sits bloody low, and has a loud exhaust. I never get trouble, and the cops in my area are nazi's.

    got pulled over 8 times since having my license (just under 2 years).
    reasons are as follows...
    *picking up mates from a party where there was a fight and police around (just RBT then told not to hang around and a warning about my dash lights)

    *2nd time next to this d1ckhead in a EB falcon who tried 2 drag me did a massiv burnout and tore of and turned a cornerm, then a cop car come flying up behind me a pulls me over. explained the situation and directed him as to where the guy went (after be briefly abused by the cop befor he gave me a chance to talk). He wasnt to bad after he realised what happened (checkd tread marks to make sure it wasnt me).

    *pulled over in my street (a 15 house dead end road in a good suburb) after droping my dad at the airport. there had been a house party broken up aprently and they were waiting to catch any drink drivers. got a RBT and a wanring about incorectly diplayed P plates.

    *4th time was my fault entirely. went round this corner while trying to msg sum one on my mobile (dumb i know) and put it into 2nd not 4th and it kicked out in the wet. undercover cop was behind me. i just told the truth and he was the nicest cop i had ever met and let me of with a recorded warning and a stern lecture. just cehcked my tyres to see if they where bald (wernt obviously).

    * 5,6,7 all booze buss RBT and VIN #NO check. no hassels.

    * most recent time i got pulled over on the free way for aprently 'swerving' onto the shoulder (i was taping sumthing into my GPS and my front wheel rubbed the emergency stoping lane). had beer siting next to my so got breathoed, blew 0.0 (hadnt been drinking yet). cop was ****ed of cause he musta thought he was guna nail me 4 DUI. told me very rudly to pop my hood, boot and open all doors. they searched my car for about 30mins (made me keap the car running). finnaly they booked me for having my P plate displayed incorectly (it was upside down as it had rolled across my parcel shelf) and gave me a yellow sticker for not having "orange enough" lights and a in his words "sh!t sounding exhaust" (it was totaly stock with no holes in it and my lights are brand new standard clear ones with orange globes). i tried to tell him they where standard but he said if i kept up with the smart ass talk he'd do me for carless driving (for the so called 'swerve')

    thats it... so in my experince most cops are OK, if your OK to them. sum are tools but theres plenty of tools who arnt cops to. drive sensibly, keap away from trouble spots and dont atract atention and you shouldnt have a problem. ohhh and P platers are allways going 2 be scrutinised more that other drivers.
    excuse the essay post. :p

    not sure what exactly makes cops aim for people, i mean my car is pretty low, still legal tho, subs usually goin, loud exhaust, yet in the 2.5 yrs ive had my Ps ive been pulled over maybe for random checks maybe 4 times, and all of them late at night understandably, however countless booze busses tho, but thats not them targeting you

    i think if u drive like a ****head and get a reputation on their computers then you suffer.

    i think people who drive older cars like vns and the like will get picked more than people with newer cars

    yeah i get that, no one bats an eyelid at you (in a vz) until you tromp on the loud pedal and everyone hears this almighty induction roar from the extra hole in the air box wondering what the f**k was that lol
