The police have the right to do anything they want, that includes strip searching you and your car. All they need is 'suspicion' which is very easy to make up.

Also use paragraphs and sentences in the future, it is very hard to read.

I believe I had a run in with the famous Officer Neil last night. Was down south though...

Seemed liked a decent guy all in all? Bit rough just driving to the shop, parking, and having a cop want to check over you car though.

Anyway, boost controller and missing wheel nut were flagged, and he just told me to get rid of the boost controller and fix the nut, and that if he saw me again without it fixed then he'd fine me and defect me.

From what I hear I'm lucky to get off with a warning. So I'm pretty happy about that.

Still think it's crap that there were shitboxes all around us which he could have found 100 things wrong with, and he singles out my car (which I can guarantee is safer to drive most of those cars!). Perks of having a Line I guess.

[CRoNic...]

If it was Neil, he would have defected you and possibly even set fire to your car.

Need to hear more about this Neil fellow.

Ha yeah, this is the reputation I've heard, that's why I thought myself lucky. And hence why I won't be taking any risks, and getting those things seen to.

Not 100% sure that it was him, but he had the Scottish accent, and knew what he was talking about with the car.

Also said "he was down this way" for a few weeks, which I took to mean he's not from the area...

Officer Neil invited himself to one of my Stagea cruises many moons ago. We had 25 Stageas at the meeting point and Officer Neil and his associate asked us to pop open our bonnets. He told me there and then, he wasn't there to defect us for minor mods. He knows we all modifiy our cars and said he'd really only attack the blatantly obvious unsafe mods/condition of the car.

You know how many cars he defected? None. Zero. Zilch. And that included Ben's 350+awkw 260RS.

Tho I have heard some stories about Officer Niel, its second hand information/heresay and alot of whinging on the forums. I've met the guy myself, had him go over my car ... twice ... and I still believe he is a fair bloke. Even if he does talk funny

Its simple. Don't be a dick, and you'll stand a better chance.

To be honest, Neil is just another cop doing a job (right or wrong). Its only because he's done the rounds enough and enough people know his name, that we have a name to whinge about when a defect is issued.

Yeah theres a trend with the people that whinge about the police - generally they're youngsters who get pulled over for doing stupid shit and decide not to elaborate that part of the story when they have a whinge in the forums

"I wasn't doing anything wrong!" "Are you sure?" "Yeah!" "Are you really sure?" "well... I did do a fully hektic skid just before I saw him..." "There ya go then...."

Thats not counting people who get defected and simply cop it sweet because they know for a fact their mods are defectable - whether they like it or not...

And it doesnt count if you drive an orange car > Orange car = Kick Me In the Balls, Please Officer

From my experience with him, he seems like a fairly decent guy just doing his job.

And he explained why the bc and wheel studs were illegal. Then gave me an opportunity to fix it up. Can't ask for more than that I guess?

That's the key if you act like a tosser then they are going to treat you like one. If you are respectful and present yourself well it is surprising what you can get out of.

The other thing is people tend to power trip and need to be in control, if you look intimidating or aggressive people will tend to react the same way back trying to prove their authority and status as the alpha, this will only make your problems worse. If you submit and let them know that they are the one in control they will almost always act differently and more in your favour.

Lots of interesting psychology studies on things like this.

Of course nothing is going to get you out of having a zip tie'd front bumper bar and a car that looks like it is going to cause a major accident.

saturday nite... drive my pos even tho i knew i shouldnt have

pulled up in a servo on the phone. stopped at the entrance. car pulls up behind me and waits. i look a bit closer its a cop car...

anyways, i take off to go park next to an ultimate pump (2x 90deg turns) and hear my awesome diff doing its thing chirping its tits off on the smooth surface haha.

they pull up next to me. gimme a death stare, i jump out, "how can i help you officer?" get a reply "Regency for you mate" i look confised... "whys that?" he asks me for my license, then tells me "just go home, dont be an idiot" and leaves.

so here i am left standing with a roll cage, locked diff, slammed, wheels, straight through twin pipe, in primer with rivets in the rear quarter and zipties holding the thing together.

not a bad nite lol.
