The other day I was in the emergency room for an asthma attack. The guys across from me got into an accident due to a dui, and we’re all going to be arrested later (so they couldn’t leave). When it was my time to check out and I approached the exit, I could hear someone sprinting behind me, and a loud “STOP!”. I turned around and there was an officer that was literally seconds away from tackling me from behind.
The nurses had just barely stopped him in time. Suffice to say, I almost shat bricks.
Another time a cop pulled me over, I found a safe place, stepped out of the car and locked it, and then sat on the curb next to my car. They then threatened to shoot me if I didn’t get back in my car. I don’t even think he was worried about me being a flight risk or a danger, he just really wanted to search my car, and that made it more complicated. Luckily, I was fine. I’m a bit of a poor redneck (litteral redneck, I work outside), and fuck, cops really don’t like you when you look poor like that.
Show them license, registration, stuff like that to show compliance. Be respectful and say shit like “i respectfully decline to answer that question, sir”. If they want to search you or your car, say “I do not consent to a search”. They’ll probably search anyway, but even if they do find something, it does not hold in court, because the evidence was collected in an illegal manner.
