    I also want to add this- if you do report or hire a lawyer, do NOT do it locally. These places are like weird high school clicks or something. They all know each other and will defend their own, all while watching you being harassed and taking your money.

    I’m not trying to fight a case, I just want to make it a little easier out here for people who look like me to go to and from work without being harassed for petty things.


    You think he was pulling me over to run and tell the boss man “Hey look, I caught a guy using his wipers without his lights on”.

    let’s not be silly, you make things hard for me, I return the favor. And I will make 1000 calls just to piss someone off.

    What I’m saying is 100% true, and as I’ve stated, if this was somewhere in a different state, I wouldn’t care about it. But, this is where I grew up and I can’t tolerate this.

    so... did you have your lights on or not? Not picking on you, I'm just curious because your posts seem to alternate between they were on and they were not on.

    I would get a two way dash cam if it's really a big deal.


    When I was younger I works as a cook at Wags, think Denny's. I would be driving at 2 am home and get pulled over. They would see my shirt and I would tell them I just got off work. It seemed like they were looking for drinks/ who was driving around at 2 am. No probal cause is wrong, but it's something they can justify pretty easily. "the brake light flickered" "no turn signal" ECT....

    Oh you should ignore the FBI and just handle this with the US Marshals. They'll come in the dozens with their blacked out SUVs and helicopters to put an end to these egregious harassments.
