it seems those that get pulled over alot are the ones that dislike cops.
But hell, ive probably been pulled over more than anyone here, 150+ times(~65 tickets), plus years back i wasnt the best behaved. Numerous arrest warrants, jv weapons charges, evading police... the cops even knew where i hung out so theyd just come to pick me up when a new warrant was put on their desk. Even back then i respected them still. Mainly because of one cop i met then, he actually talked to us when we were 16/17 and gave us the lowdown. We used to all hang out in a parking lot at nights, cops tried kicking us out but we'd always come back. Finally they accepted it, as long as we behaved for the most part, in the end it was a compromise. Even when the cops told me there was a "hit" on me one night and i asked them what theyd do about it, they replied with, "we'll have extra officers on duty, dont be in town though" well, yea, that wasnt an answer i liked, but it got taken care of(thanks to a county wide APB, lol)

my point is, your veiw of cops i think has more to do with the impression of cops put on you when you are younger and how your community veiws cops. They get a stereotype placed upon them before a person can even form their own opinion.

..and as a side note, now i'll admit, i DO expect preferred treatment from police nowadays. I am putting my life on the line, yes i know i volunterred, but still. A few miles over, tinted windows, loud exhaust... thats stuff i dont worry about anymore and so far when i have been stopped, i havent had any issues. but again, im not being stupid(like 127mph again with a cop behind me) or disrespectful.
