you should have asked for a warrent. the very first time i got pulled over was for speeding when i was 17. the cop wanted me to pop my hood,my trunk hell he wanted to search the entire car but i refused because he didnt have a warrent. so he took out his flashlight and was looking under my car and wanted to know where i "bought" my inspection sticker from. he didnt believe me that the inspection sticker had come from one of the state inspection places. anways i got my speeding ticket (and paid it) and he didnt get to search my car which really pissed him off but o well lol.

That's playing a very dangerous game. If they have any reasonable suspicion I'm sure they could keep you there until they got a warrant. If you waste their time enough to make them go through that process you better whip out the platinum Mastercard to pay for the fines/tickets they'll come up with.

i had nothing to hide under the hood so i opened it...if i had something to hide, might have been a different story

Too bad he was a dick to you. I got a call from a friend the other day that we used to street race with now he is a cop. Really big surprise you would have to know this guy you would never believe it. But he is still cool about stuff because he is really into cars. He told me some of the other officers are really ball busters.

I thought Matt ran into the good cop! He only got 1 ticket. The bad cop would have given him a handful of tickets! :lol: Heck, having Shane in your car is worth a ticket right there! :rofl:

well, i guess he couldve given me careless or something too....but still, i was being courteous to him, i'd expect the same in return
