Before I even begin my little story, let me just say one thing: I respect cops, after all they are the ones we ultimately depend on in emergency and/or criminal situations.

So I was driving my bro's LGT last night. We stopped at a taco bell and as I was pulling out of the parking lot, I noticed a cop just sitting there with his parking lights on. I thought nothing of it and continued on my way. Seconds later my bro said to me, "hey dude cop just pulled out, he's following you" so I continued doing exactly the limit (40). Cop proceeded to ride my a$$ w/o his headlights on, then pulled to the left like he was going to pass me. Started to accelerate past me, but back off and pulled over to the right and started tailgating me again. Did this for about 500 feet, then flipped is lights on. I immediately put on my turn signal and pulled over for him. His stated reason for pulling me over was "illegal license plate cover." I know he was hoping for drunks, and I really irritated him b/c he had NOTHING. He gave me a verbal warning, but after I asked him for his badge #, he turned the warning into a written warning. I'm glad he didn't write a ticket, but I firmly believe he was acting very inappropriately.


Cliff notes: cop tailgated me, looking for a reason to pull me over and gave me a warning about the plastic cover over the license plate. cop was pissed that he had nothing on me and acted like a child.
