WE LIVE IN AMERICA REFUSE AN ILLEGAL SEARCH DONT LET THE COMMUNIST WIN!!!!! that is why our great country is goin to #### people with no back bone stand up for our freedom before we lose all of our rights!!!!!!
Muleskinner Thanks this. -
It's a simple deal, for the dealer. Pull along the side of the road, let the air out...wait for the customers to arrive. A lot of them use women to reduce suspicion even further. Of course, somebody has to look like they are changing a tire.
Anytime you see more than 2 people working on a car along side the interstate/highway. Odds are there's a deal going down. -
Muleskinner Thanks this.

^ LOL
I never let them search inside the cab since the last time I did, they did something with their power drills and screwed my a/c+ and my clothes were left all over the place. Every time they ask me if they can search and I say no, they'll just hand me back my stuff and on my way. -

I blame that commie "Homeland" crap for every bit of this stuff.Since 911,every twobit jackwad with a badge envisions themselves as some kind of paramilitary badazz...When you see a patrol cop with jump boots on and all the "soldier of fortune" garb on you can rest assured you are dealing with a bonafide card carrying idiot.Fire em all and start over would be our best bet.And training them may be a good idea too.
panhandlepat and Roadmedic Thank this. -
Gettinpaid, Every time they ask?! How often does this happen? I mean, I've driven 119,000 mi. and never had it happen. What's going on here?

I just cooperate, and I'm usually gone within 30 minutes. Hell, the last one let me slide on my logs. I hadn't touched them since I had started driving that morning.
It was kinda spooky though. 3 units total, one a k-9, the other a commercial vehicle enforcement, and the third a city officer.
I was like, "#### ! All this for a blown headlight?" Imagine how it would have been had I actually done something wrong.
The DOT Officer was the coolest of the whole bunch. He looked at my logs and said, "Well, at least your on the right day." And gave them back -
Well I'm from South Texas, I get it almost every trip on La,Ms, and Georgia. That last time I got escorted onto a pilot on I-20 in LA by like 4 Dot's and 2 locals. Had me being the center of attention there in the parking lot. That time I let them search and still gave my co-driver (had one that trip) a ticket for not specifying the name of the truck stop we fueled at in his log book.
