haha loitering, sitting in your car after a workout drinking a shake is no reason for an officer to come up and start questioning you, especially when they ask stupid shit like " why are you sweating" = umm its called a gym. oddly enough I spoke one other guy about him and he had a very similar story when he was sitting in his car, little daughter in the back - he sits there a few minutes because when she gets out of the kids playroom from the gym, she is all hyped up. he has on his video screens in the back seat. the SAME officer comes up knockin on the window and starts with, "you know those screens are illegal" to which he replied "no the they are not" he said yes they are, so he proceeded to tell him they are only illegal when the car is in motion, and they are not bypassed, all the wiring is there, you are welcome to take a look. so again officer they are not illegal. the officer then (after the obligatory why are you here where do you live etc questions) said " well it sounds like you know your law" and walked away....WTF...he knew the law too, but yet went straight to "those screens are illegal"...btw a few days later he followed him home to see if the screens came on. he has also seen him questioning people standing outside the gym,,he said he feels like he cant sit in his car at all, that he needs to rush out of the lot because he doesn't want to deal with this guy....you guys keep taking his side, whatever - to me its not about fixing my car, I will fix it. I know the guys im talking to and I know they are telling me the truth.
look I know some of you replying are officers, and yes I know he has the right to pull me over, I would bet 99% of you would get pulled over to for some legit reason if an officer follows you long enough as well...it doesn't necessarily mean it is warranted, and it would leave you shaking your head. there are good cops, lots of them...and then there are pricks that wear a badge - if you guys cant see that he falls into the latter group, then you are blind. again not saying he isn't within his job of pulling me over, but if any of you dont think if a cop followed you long enough to find something even slightly wrong and pull you over too, you are wrong, and if he has it out for you *like this guy does for me - then he will find a reason or wait until one comes. he didn't pull over the equally loud mustang... he didnt pull me over cruising up the road when my car is quiet...no he just kept following me until I had to accelerate at an intersection. and by accelerate I don't mean speeding, I mean my car got slightly louder - not even loud. anyhow, I know if I spoke to 4 people and 3 of them now have had incidents with this guy, there are no doubt many more customers at this gym that he is bothering. that's not protecting and serving to me.
