Pulled over stories thread

I've only been pulled over for something of my fault once, here's the tale. This is in nsw, straya btw

>2am,driving friend home from a party
>he's talking shit about my car being slow, decide to show him what it can do (it is pretty slow tho)
>exit roundabout in 2nd gear onto dead straight and and dead quiet stretch of road
>floor it, second gear tapped and got a good way through third
>instantly backed off after accelerating for perhaps 8 seconds bc I don't wanna get caught
>must've been doing about 130km/h in a 60 zone
>red and blue light in my rear view
>FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK
>pull over and try to be cool, try to play the 'if he doesn't have me on radar and I don't admit anything he can't book me' game
>older fat cop approaches car and says some generic bullshit like 'do you know how fast you were going back there? '
>'uhh the speed limit, I did accelerate to it quite fast though '
>giving me an ice cold stare he replies, 'try and fucking bullshit me son, and I'll take your license right now. I was with you at the round about and then you fucking took off. Now just admit it or this will get a whole lot worse for you'
>instantly cave out of fear, squeak some kind of confession/apology
>breathalizes me and takes license with him to car while I talk with my friend about how absolutely fucked I am, and will probably lose my job (I was a red p plater at the time, any single speeding offense results in a loss of license)
>cop comes back, hands me my license and says 'I'll let you off with a warning. Do something that stupid again and you won't be so lucky'
>thank him profusely and drive away with my heart beating out of my fucking chest

I got crazy lucky, normally cops in nsw are seriously out to get p players.

>california roll a stop sign
>sir that'll be a $300 fine and 40 days suspended licence

Fuck this country

>be me
>roads get new lights, bright as fuck
>pull out of neighborhood without lights on because im retarded
>cop pulls me over asks where im heading "do you know your lights are off? do they work"
>apologize and say i forget because of the new lights
>he lets me go with a warning after inspecting my lights
have yet to be caught for speeding or shitty stoplight races, had some close calls with cops that didn't notice me speeding though

Lol and I'm driving a banned WRX on P's, if what you say is true about NSW cops it's gonna be fun when I get pulled over

How long have you been driving for? I'd have thought you'd have been pulled over by now. Wrx's are cop magnets, p plates or no p plates. Cops fucking love to pull them over and scour them for defects for 20 minutes

Only a few months.
Yeah I dunno. In my mothers name which could be the reason why it's been straight sailing for me

Should add - I don't display P plates either.

what the hell is a P plate

Probably some commie shit

It's how people know you're a new driver in upside-down land

sounds like some socialist bullshit desu, keep it over there we dont want any of that shit

Some gay shit for new drivers in Australia. At first you are on L plates, where you have to drive with a fully licensed driver as a passenger for your 120 hours of mandatory driving before you can sit your driving test.
One you pass your test you're on red p plates for a year, which means your max speed limit is 90, any speeding infringement results in a 3 month driving ban, you can't have anymore than 1 passenger past 11pm, zero alcohol at allowed, and then the shittiest part, A ban on driving anything with a power to weight ratio higher than 130kw/ton

Aftwr holding your red ps for a year you can take a test to move to your green ps, which is mostly the same except you can go 100km/h, no passenger restrictions and more leeway for slight speeding tickets. You have to hold this license for 2 years before you can move onto your full license.

It's a fucking joke

I'd kill myself holy shit. What about motorcycle rule? Same as the Euro system?

It's still the L plate + red and green P plate system for bikes with a few differences.

You can drive alone on L plates obviously, but you have to wear a high vis vest lol. You're not allowed a passenger until you're fully licensed and you have to ride a slow gimpy bike with the same power to weight restriction and a max engine size of 660cc

>Pulling out of my schools driveway
>My mate with a 5 litre VT is behind me
>Look in the rear view and see a police lancer behind him
>Made sure to stick to 40
>Probably doing 36 or something
>Mate over takes me on double lines
>He's doing about 85 as he over takes me
>45kph over limit anti hoon laws engage
>Police lancer that was behind me starts gunning it and forces me to dash to the left of the road
>Saw my mate being pulled over
>Knew he was fucked
>Call him 20 minutes later
>My face when the cop came up to him and said he only did 10kph over and told him to go too Eastern Creek.

Bikes rev really fucking high no? I thought most of them rev over 8000rpm so hows only having a 660cc bike that bad?

bahahaha seriously what the fuck

Speak for yourself, VIC isn't as cucked when it comes to P plates.
Red Ps restricts you to one passenger unless they're above a certain age, no trailer unless you need it for work and the standard power restrictions. Green Ps only has BAC and Power restrictions.
WA doesn't even have power restrictions.

You have no idea what you're talking about. But almost all LAMS approved 650cc bikes have their power restricted. Like he said, it can't be over a certain power to weight ratio.

>be absentminded person
>end up at home one summer having lost my passport AND my CA license
>have contacted CA DMV for a temporary paper license (couldn't get a photo license until I returned at the end of the summer)
>hasn't arrived, only "ID" is my international license which says in bold letters on the front that it's not valid without the license from your home country
>driving to friend's party after work in parents' car, going maybe 5 over
>car pulls out behind me, slow to speed limit and enable cruise control
>lights finally turn on
>pull over, pig tells me it's because of a taillight
>asks for license, registration, proof of insurance
>explain the license situation
>he doesn't seem bother
>hand him proof of insurance, he goes back to his car and comes back several minutes later
>tells me it's been expired for several months
>start apologizing and explaining it's not my vehicle
>he says not to worry and lets me off with a warning for driving without valid proof of insurance, a valid license, and with a broken taillight

This was the day I decided there's a few good cops in the mountain of shit.

Look I honestly know fuck all about bikes I'm just trying to learn a bit. I thought bikes weren't power to weight restricted like cars are. All I knew is they couldn't be above 650cc so I just assumed cause I've heard some bikes rev to 10,000rpm and over it wouldn't be too bad having a midget engine in a bike cause they are light and rev high.

I think it's 150kW/tonne for LAMS. Also, most motorbikes will rev past 10k if it has 4 cylinders.

Wow theirs 4 cyl bikes that rev to 19,000 rpm, I need to get into bikes.

>be me 17 in los angeles
>drive a 1997 accord
>going 60mph in a 35mph on a street with a good amount of cars
>get pulled over
>thinking about how fucked i am
>cop comes up to me and i thought i recognized him when i was looking in my mirrors
>my fucking neighbor
>hes a huge redneck douche and i figured i was still fucked
>tells me how hes going to tell my parents about this and that i should learn a lesson from this
>my parents were told and we all just laughed about it
>mfw i avoided a suspended license, at least one point, and a few hundred dollars
>mfw im 20 and i still drive the accord

>living in a state that cucks anything and everything
It’s your own damn fault you commie
