That's an interesting perspective. My sister is a police commander in Minnesota and has a different perspective. Sounds like you might be a little brainwashed by the CA socialist agenda.
Since it's o.k. to routinely pull people over to look for all those dead bodies on our highways, should we sanction routine house inspections in all of our neighborhoods, just to catch the guys who have corpses buried in the cellar? Can you say slippery slope? Was there any reasoning behind the search and seizure restrictions in our legal system?
I need to get a life? So, let me understand........driving at high speeds, in and out of traffic, ....but in a 'trained' way...is worth the risk of having the evil "lane changers" lurking around our communities.
Of course, I was exaggering a bit and I don't profess to know his true intention. I didn't get a ticket and it didn't suffer any real consequences (other than my baby girl awaken from a restful slumber). But I do know that I've been driving for 20 years and have probably passed a car in that manner at least a 1000 times. Four weeks into H2 ownership I'm pulled over for it. Strange coincidence.

I actually had an officer pull up and do the same thing. Except I was waiting at the video store on a friend parked out front. The officier pulled up and said.."lady you need to exit the vehicle so that we can do a routine new car inspection"...HAHA!! IT was quite funny as I was taken in and later realized it was a friend's husband that I had not met yet.
Scared the bergezers outta me. But was quite funny. Took all of two seconds to register it was a joke.

There is NO WAY the police officer stopped you to look at your Hummer. He was doing his job to make sure you are not a drunk or joy ride car thief or whatever potential danger to the society. I agree with heeHaw completely. What is most amazing is that you actually think the police stopped you to look at your Hummer.

allow me to illuminate the situation: do you remember the commercial with the hot-chick driving the H2 through the city???
Well...he was probably hoping your H2 was her. Call it wishful thinking.
Did you wink at him when you smiled? |

NEGATE and COHUMMER, you guys win!
CO-Hummer, you're right, the cop only pulled you over to look at your stupid Hummer. Yep. You Win.
NEGATE, you're right as well. We crash on purpose so we can get Ridiculed on this BB by you. Yep, you got it right.
Education is a wonderful thing, that is if you have one.
Sorry for butting in..................

Sorry folks! Thanks for not yelling at me. I got on my soap box and I regret it....Can we all just get along? Answer: Yes. I will be nicer and I have been fined by Steve. Appreciate that, keeping me in line and all.
Like Mac said, I get a little uptight when it comes to the police. I think its an honorable position and I defend it instantly and take no prisoners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have mellowed out now and the PROZAC has kicked in.............
Oh by the way, COHUMMER, when the cop touched the rear of your vehicle, it was for a reason. Here it is: We touch the vehicle as soon as we can to detect anyone moving around in the vehicle. As an example, if we touch the car and feel it moving, BUT there is only one person visible in the vehicle, wouldn't you think something is wrong? Possibly.....It could be someone hiding a weapon Or it could be kids playing in the backseat. That's why our job is so tough. Little things like that are what split second decisions are made over.
Anyway.............I'll be nice and thanks to all that supported my point, no matter how offensive I was in stating it..............
We try

He sort of gave it a "nice rig" slap with his hand - doing so with a smile on his face. He really was a pleasant guy to deal with.
....I hesitate to respond for fear that someone like MAC might link my comments directly to the cause of war in the middle east, the AIDS epidemic, or school violence.

Has anyone ever been pulled over for an "improper lane change". I was driving highway 24 outside of CO springs today. I was behind some yahoo going 40 mph in the fast lane. I pulled over to pass him on the right. No one was within 100 yards behind me. All of the sudden I see a cop sitting in the median and his red lights go on. I couldn't figure out what was going on, then realized he was coming for me, so I pull over. I'm wondering...what the heck? I wasn't speeding or doing anything out of the ordinary. He gets out of his car, walks up behind my rig, taps that rear side a couple of times, eyes it a little bit, looks in and gives a big smile. Then he comes to the window and says to me, while I look in astonishment, "did you know you made an improper lane change"? I'm thinking.....you just weaved in and out of traffic, put 15-20 people in danger, drove like a madman to catch up to me just to tell ME I made an unsafe lane change? Of course, all I did was smile and give him my license. While I'm looking for my registration he says "don't worry, I'm not going to give you a ticket or anything. I'll be right back". A few minutes later he gives me my license back and says "have a good day".
My guess is that he just wanted a look at the H2 (not that I blame him). How often does anyone get pulled for a lane-change violation? I had a similar experience at work. The guard at the drive-in gate stops me to look at my ID. Normally, you just flash the ID from your car while driving through. When I gave him a funny look as he approached my window he say "actually, I just wanted a look at your rig". :-)
