in light of recent "fuck the cops" threads

[ksniperfox]

just like to remind some people that there is proper roadside etiquette that when properly exercised, reduces your chances of getting a citation. im not proud of it, and i admit fault and am ready for flamage..but ive been pulled over 3 times since ive had my s2k(3 months), and i got 3 warnings for driving too fast. and im only posting what ive been stopped for in this car. cops are cool.

the most recent time being 15 minutes ago. i was going 25 over. and apparently today is my lucky day. or so he said.

to an extent, you're correct... In my experiences, I'm always as calm and compliant as I know how to be and they're usually pretty cool about it. Police respect people that respect them. If you come off as a little punk, they're going to treat you as such. I can only think of a couple of instances where the cop(s) were just unreasonable. But I can also think of A few instances where I've been in the wrong and the officers realized I'm being respectful and showed me the same courtesy. It's all in how you handle yourself about 99% of the time.
