mmmm cheesecake.....

You are right. However, atleast where I am from.....it takes no time at all to get a warrant.......mabye a couple of minutes.

Yeah, but you make them do twice the amount of paperwork for the same amount of donuts, and they're not going to be nice about it.;)

As it is here as well. And as indicated, not only will they take your car apart, but your life as well......

Of course....if you simply tell the cop who your father (aka your Attorney) is.....there should be no problems.

No offense, but if I were a cop, and an adult tried to play the "Don't you know who my daddy is?" card, I'd do as much as I could to get said adult in as much trouble as humanly possible.

But, I don't think that's what the situation is here with the Emory bus being pulled by the University.

It's far more effective to cooperate with the cop and let his boss ream him out when they find out who your daddy is, anyway.

Hummmm-my father was both an Attorney and an Officer and he never played that game and told me never to to it either.

Told me to always treat the Officer as you would wish to be treated by them....and to put myself in their position.

True-I would agree with that..

First part I agree with and the second part may depend on where you are, size of police force, type of department et al....In New York State, the husband of a candidate for AG has been pulled over several time by patrol units....and if they are doing it more than once: the guy has problems driving and the troopers are not being told to stop doing their jobs.....

I know you're too young to remember this, but your posts are starting to make me think of that song The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia.

Personally, I think most cops are power tripping assholes and deserve to get somewhat embarassed in public. Obviously, this is from my own experience.......but I just think it is far more pleasurable to actually see the cop get told over the phone or in person that there isn't a damn thing he can do and that it would be in his best interest to simply let me go.

It is even more hilarious when you have someone like the Chief of Police or the Smith County Sheriff on speed dial in your cell phone.....and get them to tell the unfortunate officer these things.
