Why is it that we get members on here (and on nearly every other car forum. SC forum is the worst of all) criticising police for doing their job. I read posts all the time about how police are arseholes because someone got defected for their car being only an inch off the ground. How police 'harassed' someone by following them. How someone was supposedly 'forced' to participate in a street race against an unmarked cop car and then getting busted for it.
I'd like to see these people criticise the police to their face when their car is stolen or their house is broken into. Who you going to call then? Sadly there seems to be an attitude of Us vs Them. I remember 18 months ago when the local cops organised a car show in the local area with prizes and different categories, and most idiots made stupid statements like "They're only trying to get us all together and lock us in the gates so they can defect us."On another car forum you got whole threads about police bashing. Thankfully we have better moderators on JC.
Simple fact is if you car is legal you have nothing to worry about. If you don't break the road laws for your particular state you'll have nothing to worry about (ignorance is no excuse. Make an effort to look up regulations on your states traffic authority website). If you do get pulled up by the cops don't be a tool or smart arse and you won't have anything to worry about.
I have my flame suit on so go nuts. :flame:
