When pulled over on a road by police what should you do?

[jimmy2]

There things one can do to stay alive.

Stay in the car, don't get out. That's a threat that is revived by police.

Don't resist if a police goes for the handcuff they can put you in cuff then release.

Don't run or get in a fight. That will bring his gun out.

Stay alive it just not worth it for a months drama over your death.

All the above.

[purplepoppy]

I'm confused, do police where you are pull people over just to kill them?

[jimmy2]

No it that they will not follow or respect the police

[WhitneySnow]

This is helpful

[jimmy2]

Thank you

[Crepe_tart]

You never really know what kind of cop will stop you. And with all the adrenaline they have, they can do anything without thinking.
So I would say, stay calm, don't raise your voice, know your rights and record everything with your phone (cause it's your right).

[jimmy2]

Agree

[libsaretards]

True. Also, LET THEM SPEAK. They are the authority, not you. Also, being polite and letting them finish will help them relax a bit.

[libsaretards]

The correct move is to keep both hands on the steering wheel and ONLY reach for what the officer tells you, WHEN the officer tells you. Even when you do, move slow. When the officer comes up, just be polite, let them say what they need to and do not give them any attitude. If they do something wrong, fight it in court, NOT WITH THE OFFICER.

[libsaretards]

Not sure what is so funny about this. This IS the correct response given both in any guidebook for driving and taught to officers as the correct response.

[exitseven]

I always stay in the car and keep my hands on the wheel. I always say YesSir andNo sir to the cop and do not mouth off to him. If there is any chance at all for getting let off with a warning you have to be respectful to the cop.

All of the above, but if we are being honest, the United States Justice system needs a rework. Especially in the Police department.

[JoyGirl]

There is a case we read in Government class that talks about a Police man being trained by someone racist. I forgot the name of the case, but that is an example as to why the Police Department needs a rework/upgrade.

[JoyGirl]

That doesn’t mean that all police men are bad. It just means that we need to work harder on weeding out the bad ones.

[Agagagagaga]

What would the US Justice system look like after your rework?

[JoyGirl]

@Agagagagaga The same, but less violence, as well as discrimination. :)

[DryGermanGuy]

That's an American problem. Never witnessed anything remotely so problematic in Germany. Most police officers are absolutely polite and helpful.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Most cops here are total 💩 who think they can do whatever they want to the citizens or say to the citizens not according to law yet many of them claim to love this country and its values. 🙄

[Guardian45]

The problem is NOT restricted to America! It is WORSE in some other countries!

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

I can do whatever is lawful for me to do. A cop can't force me to stay in my car or get out of my car if I'm not under arrest or committed a crime.

A cop just can't go around making up his damn rules and ruling over people as he see fit.

[Agagagagaga]

“GUN GUN!”

blam

You just got shot by a police officer. So much for doing what is lawful for you to do. They have a goddamn gun man. They’ll blow you the fuck away and say they thought your belt buckle was a pistol or some shit.

[jimmy2]

Well hope you can stay alive

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

See the problem with people like you is you don't believe in the constitution nor the key vaule of America which is freedom nor do a lot of cops believe in the constitution of the U. S. which makes them traitors to the nation and its vaules.

You think cops was just can run your lives as they wish and not according to the law?

It's a very good way to start losing your freedom so many men and women died for.

[jimmy2]

No it the fact that you don't respect authority

[Guardian45]

The Constitution is NOT a Kevlar vest!

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@jimmy2: There's no law demanding I respect the police officer. I'm obligated by law to follow lawful orders, not just anything a cop says.

@Guardian45: Well, might as well throw the constitution in the trash and cut the facade and hypocrisy America stands for individual freedom then.

[jimmy2]

You don't have cops then you have lawlessness

[Guardian45]

It is better to be alive to continue the struggle, then to be another murdered victim.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@jimmy2: I'm not advocating for lawlessness. Cops or any official according to the U. S. constitution don't have a right to violate people's right givin to them by the laws of the land.

If you don't believe in such concept then the the U. S. constitution should be thrown in the trash and start over with a new constitution resembling one like China.

@guardian45: Then the U. S. constitution as written should be done away with if cops can just shoot you for disobedience.

[Lliam]

Roll your window down a few inches, shut off the engine, and keep your hands on the steering wheel. At that point, comply with the officer.

[OpenClose]

I get what you're going at, here.

I'll remember this next time I buy skittles or sleep in my bed.

[Guardian45]

You can ALWAYS sue the police later! But ONLY if you're alive.

[jimmy2]

Lol very true

[notwoke]

as long as you don't "act a fool" you have nothing to be concerned about

[jimmy2]

True

[douride2]

I have never had an issue with the police. Just remember though he/she has that gun on his/her hip.

[humanearth]

Tell them that you have no doughnuts and coffee

[TX651]

Just do what you are told.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Wrong answer. Will you pull your pants down if he tells you so? Smh

[TX651]

Get real.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

You get real. If you are an American then here in America we value freedom. This isn't China.

A cop just can't go around thinking he's God over the people and do whatever the hell if desires.

We have rights in the U. S. and no cop or any other official aren't entitled to violate those rights of the citizens.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

* he desires

[Guardian45]

@Hispanic-Cool-Guy. While you're NOT wrong, that WON'T help you if you are DEAD!
