Can an off duty cop pull me over...

do detectives get un-marked cars in buffalo?

I ask because when I was passing through Chicago I saw a detective stuck in traffic shouting on his radio and was in a suit and had a red light on his dash.

I’ve been pulled over by a cop in a minivan before. He chased me for a few blocks and caught up on a side street where he whipped around me and caused me to slam into the curb… no ticket

I was told by a Lancaster cop that gave me an “imprudent speed” ticket that since he didn’t get me on his gun he couldn’t ticket me for my actual speed. The imprudent speed ticket was immediately thrown out when I went to court.

Then she pulls into the new Timmy Ho’s that makes it still boons and deals with the 12 cops hanging out there.

^how could you tell if it was marked or unmarked at night if it was behind you?

They always hit you with the spotlight so they can see you and you can’t see them

Not to mention they are trained to eyeball the speed of cars…

i was pulled over by a detective on his way home from work doing XXXmph and he was going to call for back up and have my car towed…i had to bull shit pretty good to get out of that one

fixed

is this discussion still going on?

you can stop for them, but when you pull over, you can call the police and ask them if he is really a cop, hell i would call the poilce right in front of the guy, theres no law against you calling somone while the car is not moving.

i hate this area/state with its ridiculous law enforcement antics. im moving south :smiley: hahaha

^avoid Virginia.

When I was younger, I was always told that an officer can’t pull you over of he himself is speeding.
IE, he’s going 65 down a 45… and you’re doing 60 or whatever.
I was told he can’t pull you over as he is breaking the law as well, and he would have to slow down to the speed limit before flipping on the lights -.-

But I assume that is false as the more I think about it, the less sense it makes.

yeah that’s incorrect.
how could that possibly be enforced in any way?
