It boggles my mind how quickly people open their mouths to the police and don’t realize their basic civil liberties. If I ever have a run in with a police officer I just politely say I would like to speak to my attorney every time they ask a question.
Prime example of when to keep your mouth shut. You get pulled over and the cop approaches and asks “do you know why I stopped you?” or “do you know how fast you were going?”
I always say something to the effect of “I really have no clue”
I’ve been in the car with friends countless times where they immediately answer yes I was speeding and gives the mph or yeah I was on my phone. Just let the officer tell you. There is a little thing called the 5th amendment… Use it!!
I know there are some police officers that are members on here and/or may be monitoring the site and it is not my intention to make your job harder. I just feel people should understand the ins and outs of the law before dealing with trained professionals such as yourselves.
And always remember kids, kill them with kindness!
