    Yeah this was outdated. They should be informing you why they pulled you over.

      So they can hear you go “I DID NOTHING WRONG! I DON’T UNDERSTAND! I WASN’T SPEEDING!” spammed like 50 times.

        In which case, as long as the cop wasn’t lying, or making an excuse, could be easily proven. People might be more likely to trust that they were speeding if cops didn’t lie at every interaction.

          Part of the problem is that cops are legally allowed to lie as an “Interogation Technique” (in the USA at least).

            That’s why you don’t fucking say anything because there’s a reason they say “you have a right to remain silent”

            But a lot of dumbass people don’t because they believe they can talk their way out of anything.

          Pfffft

          And you’re to imply that the violators don’t lie? What a joke you are.

            Is that not why I explicitly said “could be easily proven”? As long as I’m less of a joke than you, I’m quite content <3.

          I MAY talk like THIS because doing THIS way of talking MAKES me sound IMPORTANT.

          Retard.

            imagine thinking people put emphasis on words to sound important, not to make written language clear for those reading

            imagine thinking bold or italics are just people being full of themselves, don’t even get me started on underline

            imagine ending your message with an explanation of your current situation, as if people didn’t already realize it

            Just some guy sparing a moment to marvel at the retard.
