Did he ever actually say did he get a ticket or just pulled over??
If just pulled over I have no problem with that at all. If he got a ticket for 3 mph over then yeah I have a big problem with that. |

No way would a cop write a ticket for 3 mph over. Fight the ticket, even the judge would say WTF??? I'd file a complaint if something that ridiculous ever happened. That would obviously be Harassment. I got pulled over one nite, 2am, local jerk macho cop. First he followed me, right on my bumper, definitely tailgating me, for about a mile in a two lane 50 mph zone. I'm certain he could see my radar detector completely lit up. I kept it at 50 exactly. Then I see the blue lights, so I pull over. He asked "do you know why I pulled you over" and I said "well I definitely wasn't speeding". He then said "well you sure came into that rotary fast". To which I responded "Really"? Then he said I was driving on the "Fog Line". I said "what the heck is that". After he explained I said I thought I was closer to the center line. His next comment let me know instantly that I was screwed. He said "ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR". At that instance I knew he was just a macho jerk. It happens, once in awhile somebody wants to push you around. Then his buddy, State Trooper pulled up, they shoot the breeze for a couple minutes, the State Trooper took off and after fifteen minutes or so he sent me on my way. Thankfully No ticket. That's the only time I've ever run into a cop with a bad attitude. |

Yeah that was a new one to me too. The road I was on runs along the Cape Cod Canal. So fog is an issue once in awhile, but that was the first time I ever heard the term Fog Line.
Petty excuse to pull me over, especially since I though I was closer to the center line. I figured since it was around 2 am he was bored and who knows, lots of drug dealers around nowadays. Coulda used that as an excuse to just check me out, drugs/alcohol. Once he saw all was good, he seemed disappointed, he let me go. Fog Line, that's a first. |
