The third time was last summer, I got pulled over to learn that the cop just wanted to know if I was drunk (It was 2:00am and I had just got off work, still in uniform). The last time I got pulled over was two months ago when I was driving my dad's brand new Ford Ranger at night. Cop said the temporary tag should be on the outside of the window, so that he could see it better.....

the temp tag - is it paper? if so how does it make sense to display paper outside of a vehicles window exposed to the elements to destroy it before the time's up on it lol! some times the crap they say is awful....


Never been pulled over in the jimmy - knock on wood!

The cavalier however... got pulled over cuz i forgot to put my front LP back on after a car show - i take it off for photo ops so people don't get the nasty flash back from it and i replace it with a factory fit cover panel that sits flush in the bumper, my own damned fault for not replacing but it was $110 fine reduced due to plate reinstalled.... in my windshield @ the top in a manner it shows forward and completely visible! kinda taking my chances here with it i know - that filler plate is gonna get cut up a bit to slip the plate in behind it with a clear plexiglass window to show the numbers.

Been pulled over like twice in the past two months... First time it was 3 AM and I was out for a cruise to Steak N Shake to get some food and he followed me a few miles then pulled me over and said I was weaving left of center... he asked me 'how much have you had to drink tonight' I said nothin besides this mountain dew sir and held up my mountain dew haha. I got a written warning but nothing else. Then I got pulled over for not having my front license plate on... Also a written warning... gotta get that thing on there somehow once it gets warm.

Yea, it was total BS. Cops around here try to pull everyone over at night, because they think they have nothing better to do..... NOT!!! I guess handing out traffic tickets is more important than stopping criminals. Pretty sad if you ask me.
