F**k Vic Cop

[Guest RedLineGTR]

All i can say that its just wrong..that police do that without any genuine reason. I'd be in flames at them after they are finished with checking out my car

[SKY031]

Yeah I  understand that. So what I was saying was I don't see what having the police pull him over had anything to do with the whole police looking for stolen cars, they pulled him over due to the fact it was a "grey import". Ah well

no.... they pulled him over because THAT is their job.

[Guest INASNT]

but wouldnt their job also be to know wtf they are talking about???

would u let a surgent that doesent know nothing about surgery operate on u???

[SKY031]

you're still missing the point here.

They probably weren't even TMU.

......and we still don't know if calvintys actually got booked/canaried etc.

Cops try to unnerve people.

Maybe he shouldn't have given them cheek in the first place, and they would have gone away

[Guest INASNT]

calvintys already said he just got a warning!!

I think they are under the impression that we have no clue about cars, like them (refer to thread "whats the stupidest thing a cop as haid to you", hence they make up crap on the spot. But the fact that we do know about car makes people really mad because we have idiots inforcing laws they know nothing about.

Cops doing a great job....

bahahahah the station wagon should be defected for having a faulty rear lock

[(B1) MR_fanny]

im sure anyone would be peeved if they got pulled over twice in the space of 20mins with no real reason behind it. and understanably the cops are doin their jobs in the odd chance they come across one that is stolen. but like INASNT

[calvintys]

yeah i am curious too... any defects or fines?

Lucky for me he does not give me anything.... i told them i dono any of those thing is illigal ..... also he does not say anything about stolen car to me , if he say that i would have nothing to say.

During my conversation with the stupid cop about my bumper bar.

me: Can you please tell me what wrong with my bumper bar?

COP: U know that is illigal dont you?

me:This bumper bar is a genuine bar from nissan (before i can continue)

COP: Dont tell me this, come on u know this stuff, dont think i dono, come on....

Me: (in my mind WTF) i seriouly dono what is wrong with my bar.

Second thing which i forgot to say,

When my car got pull over, i quickly walk out from my car and the first word which came out from my mouth " I JUST GOT PULL OVER 20 minute ago", then they ask can i have your driver lisence, i gave it to him then i continue " can you pls tell me why u wana pull me over"

Then the cop start saying those illigal stuff... also pls keep not they doesn't even look at my car Rego at all... if they wana check stolen car, they would have the rego as well but he didnt... WTF

[DoNNo]

meh i never get in trouble like dat from the cops

i find the best way to deal with them is to act scared and call them sir

sounds like a suck up but it works

also if they ask u to pop the bonnet you do realise u dont have to

its ur legal right to refuse this without them having a warrant to search ur car

[SKY031]

If it's a regular cop, they can't ask you to pop the bonnet.

However, TMU can.

This doesn't mean that they are allowed to touch anything though.

Without your permission they are only allowed to "look"- if they have reason to believe that you have something illegal under there.

If the car isn't registered to you, then you can refuse permission, but generally its a good idea to just go along with what they say so that you can be on your way with as few dramas as possible.

If you people want to make life harder for Police, then be aware that Police can be fined if they don't provide you with the following details in writing when you ask for them:-

• Name
  
• Identification number
  
• Rank
  
• Station they come from.
  

They MUST provide you with this information if you ask.

if u feel u are wrongly defected, is there anything you can do about it?

i have been told u can go to some department in the police and make some form of complaint, is that true?

[WazR32GTSt]

i think there are some problems with the way you handled this issue...

firstly, cops are very much on a power trip and you don't want to challenge this. I would have waited in my car and acted very politely. even if you are angry, never raise your voice as ths will just incite an unwanted response from the cop. treat them the way you want them to treat you, confucious say...

secondly, if you act appropriately and you still get treated like shit, just calmly say something along the lines of "excuse me sir. can i please have your name and badge number. i feel the way i have been treated is inappropriate and wish to take this matter further". i guarantee if you say this calmly then the cop will get scared and defend himself and give you a warning instead of a fine... and if they do still give you a stupid fine then take it to the local station and complain...complain...complain...complain. its the only way shit gets through to them...

BUT this would only work if you don't act like a coc.k to them in the first place.

Waz.

U can sent a complaint into the police Ombudsmen.

If the same idiot cop has been reported before to the Ombudsmen then u have a chance of them actually doing something about it coz they are all in bed together anyway

then they went ahead trying to break off the air filter

WTF!

what do you mean "trying to break it off". break which bit off which? I can't believe some cops are so fuX0red
