If you were pulled over or stopped on the street by the cops would you cooperate with them, or would you run away or go on a high speed chase?

[sage2021]

Maybe something else?

I'm always friendly. Everyone, even cops, appreciate being treated nicely. I'm sure they have to deal with enough jerks.
I've had cops cut me slack.
I never act belligerent. That would just piss them off. Although, if they were behaving like an ass hole, I might act resentful or disgusted.

Government grants its enforcers something called qualified immunity, which means they can beat, assault, or even kill you if they feel like it. But if you put a mark on one of them you're going to pound you in the ass prison for life, where the guards also have this immunity to beat or abuse you if they feel like it, and they control the cameras and witnesses.

Thanks for MHO

I always cooperate. Yes sir, no sir. If there is any chance I will get off with a warning it is not when I give the cops a ration of crap.

@exitseven - I was pulled over once, for speeding. One thing I learned is when they ask you if you knew how fast you were going, just say "No, I don't know". Cause if you give them a number lower than you were actually going, you'll get a ticket like I did.
The reason I was speeding in the first place was because it was really hot that day, so I drove down a hill with the windows down and my son was in the back - I was trying to cool us off because I didn't have air conditioning. Guess who was just waiting at the bottom of the hill? Yep, he was hiding from me. He didn't believe my truthful story anyway.🤷🏼‍♀️

I was driving out of state early in the day. I was going at a pretty high rate of speed 80-85 mph and there was a radar trap under a bridge. The copper pulls me over and I just said yes sir, no sir. Give him my license and registration. He runs me though the computer and I just figured it will cost about a thousand bucks after the fine and insurance surcharge. He came back and just gave me a warning. I had a box of donuts on the front seat so is told him I didn't want to sound like a wise guy but would he like a donut. He gladly accepted.

I've been stopped four times. Each one I cooperated full. Three were a case of mistaken identity. I matched a general description of a perp. The fourth was a case of misunderstanding. The shop keeper had let the officer go ahead of me and after my purchase, I shoved it in my backpack, and booked it out of the store because I was going to miss my train. I was stopped and after a brief search of my backpack, they let me go.

[Surely]

If I tried to run. I would only be tired when they caught up to me.
They haven’t made a car to outrun a two radio or a helicopter. Plus you could kill someone or even yourself.
Might as well sit tight and take your chances with the police and hope they are having a good day!

[AviatorTom]

I would cooperate.. what's the befit of trying to run... they will eventually get me, and I probably did nothing seriously wrong.

[Guardian45]

An encounter with the police should never be treated casually. They carry weapons. I'm always polite and deferential. My intent is to draw as little attention to myself and be as cooperative as possible.

[FunkyMonkee]

So far, it's happened twice and I co-operated. I did nothing wrong so, there was no point in running.

[Fuentes]

Lol run off and go to Prison? Nah lol obviously obey

[najekim]

Cooperate. Can always fight in court and get it thrown out.

[SnowedIn]

Quietly and respectfully cooperate."

[Anonymous]

I was always told to obey the law. Acting in obedience. I have never had a problem when I've gotten pulled over or have been approached by officer of the law even on the streets. Never be in the being a place where I do not feel comfortable in.

[TrueConfection]

I'd cooperate.

[strlb]

If it was a legal stop yes, I would stop but I would refrain from speaking to incriminate myself.

[Pterodon]

Always cooperate

[AFretiredTXn]

Yes always.
