Im so so sure man.... time to grow up...
Cops probably wouldnt give a **** if you were Glen Lerner.
My best friends dad is THE ticket terminator (owner and innovator) and they just write him for more violations.
You telling a cop your daddy is a lawyer is like pissing on their boot... they're just going to write you more tickets.
I suggest you stop being an ***.
Despite what you think street racers are not cool.

The funny part is as he hauls a$$ to get behind me I saw him almost lose it and almost go into the on coming traffic before getting on my tail. haha.

Anyway, I pull over and he walks up to my driver side window and says he pulled me over a few reasons and give me your license registration insurance, I take off my seat belt (he is still at my window btw...) and reach for my glove box to get my stuff and to also reach for my wallet in my back pocket. Just as i'm giving what he asked for I start to ask what the reasons are...instead of answering me he walks away...i'm thinking "thats kinda rude"...oh well.

When he comes back he tells me that he "clocked me at 45, citing me for not wearing my seatbelt and expired insurance", I'm thinking WTF!! I start to apologize for giving him the wrong insurance card and proceed to give him the current one, he responds "don't bother". At that point I start to mouth off and ask If I heard him correctly and ask if he just said don't bother...he doesn't respond...I start to ask why i'm being cited for not wearing my seatbelt and he replies, "because I just now saw you put it on". WTF!

When I start to remind him that he was standing next to me when i took it off to reach for my insurance and registration he tells me that I need to take that up with the court. WOW, at this point i'm trying to reason with him and tell him how unreasonable, unfair and arrogant he is being...he responds with "if you know whats good for you, you should be quiet"....WOW.
Here is a break down of what happened next:
Me: "What did you say!?"
A-hole cop: "Are we going to have a problem here?"
Me: laughing "Can give me my F'ing ticket so I can leave."

In the end...The citation reads:
He clocked me with a radar gun doing 45mph. FALSE because he wasn't using a radar gun. He was riding his bike at the time.
I wasn't wearing my seatbelt. FALSE because he saw me take it off after i was stopped.
Expired insurance. FALSE because he chose not to accept me handing him the correct and current card, ignoring proof that my insurance is current and valid.

WOW, if these are the type of police officers we have serving citizens I'm concerned.
thats messed up dude....
go to court and be a civil person and explain everything.
You sound reasonable, a reasonable level headed person without a major record will most of the times appeal to a judge.
Remember judges hate BS tickets also, so if you can stay cool a great outcome will come.

I just looked at him with a bewilderd face. seeing as the car was covered in dirt and still had the numbers in the window he asked if i was racing... i replied "Yes" we spent the past 2 hours removing all of the race parts to drive it on the street again. (we really just changed the tires but we were dirty with tire grime). he bought it. told me when i leave nobody will bother me so long as im not drawing attention to me... I just thought to my self, what would happen if i blew my train horn when he was standing there. LOL

Not all cops are bad.
hahahaha that would be really funny...your horn is beast!!!!!

I would hope i'm a level headed dude..
This is my first ticket in Vegas (2yrs) and my last was in '04 I think...I actually drive really slow all the time too. I want to go to court but I really don't need the aggravation...I might just let prepaid legal handle it.

This is the fifth negative encounter i've had with the fuzz, luckily they never had any reason to ticket me before...the one I love the most is when I was flagged for exhibition of speed while pumping gas ...

I'm curious about what you did...

Here is my car being dyno'd at Dynojet for their product research...I'm sure you've all seen the thread on it. My car made 257 Wheel HP and 254 Wheel TQ 100% stock.
I'll post picks of the dyno sheet as soon as I get it.

What do you mean open up? *EDIT* I think they are just a r&d facility and are not going to open to the puplic...
I got a pretty good idea about what they are developing from Keith @ Dynojet, but I'm not too much of a car tech guy so I'll save myself the trouble of sounding like a jacka$$...

If you go to their website, the power commander module is similar to what they are developing for turbocharged cars.

Oh and another thing to add.....the part about no insurance is Bull. Most Insurance companys now report to the DMV when your insurance expires..thus flagging your Lic plate to cops. So cops know if your insured just by running the plates.

I need to find the actual rules from the DMV...but it was made to stop people from insuring their car for like a month then dropping it once they got plates.

oh wait found it.

Second day in Newport. Got pulled over going to get coffee. This was a cool cop though. another warning for stopping on the line at a red light and not stoping before it. Cops here are bored.. I think they just pull people over to make conversation.

Ill just play evils advocate because i like to, how do you know he didnt clock you? just because he was on his bike... he could have been sitting in the apt complex exit radaring people and then clocked u and pulled out. also, tbh radar certified cops do not even need to radar you to determine if your speeding, they can all estimate speed just by looking at you withing 3-5mph.

as for your seatbelt... if thats what happened then sorry.

as for your insurance.... well u handed him the wrong insurance card, i would have wrote you to... do u think we have esp and know that? if i already wrote the ticket i would have said dont bother to. when you go to court just bring prof that u actually had it and they should dismiss that charge.

thats bull, no where in our computer does it say that, that person does not have insurance. the only thing that might happen is that the person has a lapse in insurance or they o what u described and then then dmv suspends the registration the problem is that it doesnt tell us why its suspended... so we really do not know. it could be they wrote a bad check... insurance lap...etc etc.... so to say that it flags the plate is sorta true but we cant tell if its for insurance reasons.

calilancer02 yup i had a similiar encounter..i slip the cops my dad lawyer card under my Driver's Lisncese everytime i get pulled over. LOL you should see the look in their eyes its sooooo funny

lol!! i would laugh at you in then stack the hell out of the tickets... i dont care if ur dad is god dude.... if im writing you a ticket i know it before i even make contact with you...handing me a laywer card is just gonna **** me off and make me write you more. i mean i dont care if u plead not guilty and made me go to court because i love going to court, 2 hours of ot minimum :-) so u keep handing those cards out.
