Dumb Cop (for a laugh)

Just took my mate to have a look at a car he wants to buy. On the way back this highway partol goes screaming past. Not more then 2mins later I look in the rear view and see it come macking up and almost run up my arse. I pull over and he starts accusing me of doing burnouts in another suburb (close by). I then explain that i was no where near there.
"well we had reports of a orange car doing burnouts, but looking at your tyres, you havent"
He never looked at the front tyres, but the back
This was in my corolla, which is FRONT WHEEL DRIVE. But also gold. I didnt have the heart to tell him.
Then the cu*t fined me for no p plates. Didnt even let me explain why . I was nothing but nice and polite either

simple solution - if you're a p-plater then put up p plates

You can write them a letter explaining it...just make up some bullsh*t excuse. It worked for me coz i said "i had magnetic ones & someone stole them, and i didnt realise they were missing"
try it ...it might work

Gee I feel sorry for you guys that have to have plates on the car. (I never had to have L's or P's on my car, so I never did).
I've just seen so many stories on people getting fined for the stupid things falling off etc. (Even though you should have had them on if your law required it though).
I think the only safe way is to epoxy+superglue+chain+tie the bastards on. They just seem too unreliable to trust avoiding a fine with. Or at least they should make them like rego stickers are.

most ironic cop story i have...
I was waiting for my brother to pick me up, and i was sitting out the front of jus's house (juzzo84) and right at the top of the street we see him get pulled over. We walk up and stnd near the car trying to see what happened, and the cop got shitty asked us to "wait over the other side of the street" so we went and stood there. Anyway, she pulled out the breath teaster that is rapped in plastic, and she very subtely drops it on the floor, we notice, and jus, being the smart arse he is...waited for the cop to walk back to her car and said "excuse me officer are you going to pick that up"
she was shitty that soe punk just told her what to do. anyway...they leave and i get in the car to go home...
"so what did they pull you over for"
".....littering"
dumb cop, giving a littering fine while throwing rubbish on the ground

was out in the soobs one night. mates were ripping skids when cops came they decided to go over my car, went around the car feeling the tyres when they came to the back ones. mate wound down his window just as the cop was checking the back left "errrrrr FWD mate" cop just looked up stupid and walked off. lucky that cos i rememberd that it was ultra low on tread and needed to be changed.
I also heard of a cop screaming down a street only to hit one of those concrete tree boarders on the ground, completely screwed the front end of the car.

This is a second hand story,but good for a laugh.
A mate of mine "Waz" is out with a couple of mates in Cooma on a Saturday night.
Patto (not drinking mind you) was driving the ute with his missus riding shotgun.Waz,Smithy and Skins were all in the back with a case of Melbourne Pizzed as.
Anyway Pattos doing a bit of hooning,looses it and gets into the gravel slams into a big old tree.No-ones hurt but all the stubbies are smashed and the boys in the back are a bit knocked about.Sure as Sh-t who turns up seconds later but the Local Constable.
"Ok Patto! What the F--ks happened here?" He says as sarcastic as hell.
Quick as a flash Waz explains.
"Jesus!Ya wouldn't believe it! Me an Smithy an Skins were sitting up in the tree having a quiet beer an Patto's swerved to miss a cat an we all ended up in the back of the ute!"
The copper pis--d himself laughing and gave all of them a lift home.
At least some of the country cops still have a bit of human in em.

Small town cops are always better because there arn't enough of them to form an "elite" and they have to mix with the people who they deal with professionally.
Plus it's hard to book your second cousin without a clip round the ear from your Mum.LOL

Cops up that way arnt to bad , iwas at khancoban a couple of months ago and got pulled over for rego check and ended up chatting to the constable for half an hour about the reliability
of their nissan patrol turbos. Truck he had had a new turbo after only 5000 klm. he also said they dont warm them up either.
