Cops must be out to get me., pulled over 2 times in under 24 hours Options

I don't know what it is, but the po-po's have been all over me lately. Tuesday night I was coming home from school and I got pulled over.. because the light that lights up the license plate was out. The funny thing is is that he was coming towards me, and then turned around and turned on his lights. How on earth could he see my rear plate from the front?

Then Wednesday early evening the lady-friend and myself were going downtown for some food when I see a cop pull on behind me. He followed me for about 5 blocks, and then pulled me over. His reason was that I had a smoked plate holder in back. It isn't dark, but apparently to him it was illegal, and that the people who make it do so illegally. So he let me go. And I had me some mexican food.


Does this look like it is hard to read? Or illegal?



Anyone know how to replace a plate light?

It's almost the END OF THE MONTH and they must meet their Ticket QUOTA...I was harrassed yesterday by a cop too...imma go and fight it...said i was speeding and didn't even had me clock at anything at all...it was late at night and he was parked out on the curb standing on the passenger side talking to some kid he pulled on the side on a bike...i passed by and had gone at least more than 3/4 mile....he speed 80MPH accordingly to him to catch up to me...the posted speed was 50mph, i asked him how fast i was going and he just yelled at me that i was exceeding the posted limit...WTF?? my friend who was in the passenger side and I were stunned because I was only going about 50MPH, he then told me if i wanted to dispute it with him, he was willing and going to lock me up in jail and write me up for WRECKLESS DRIVING...it's all a set up when they don't meet their quota...i got ****ed up....i know cops, especially city cops or any cops for the situation cannot write you up if they can't tell you how fast you were going or clocked at...i could have arrested him under citizen arrest for speeding 80 MPH to catch up to me...he also went on talking about how he wasn't afraid to take me to court and fight me for it...he's got it all on camera...( I was like WTF????) how could he judge me at NIGHT TIME and say that i was speeding with his eyes and even if he did catch me on the camera assuming that i was speeding, the camera can't really depict if the car was only going 25MPH or 80PMH...im so MAD!!

That can be faught! That arshole just pulled you over for their Ticket Quota like you said. You know why he said that he was gonna write you down for wreckless driving instead of speeding? One, either he didn't clock you and it only makes sense that he would speed to catchup to you when you are freakin 2 miles away. And second, becuz you weren't speeding and was trying to find something to write you for and "wreckless" driving has nothing to do with speeding. "AGRESSIVE" driving does! Me saying that would just make the cop feel salty. And if he decides to be an arshole about the whole situation, I'll ask for his badge number, and I'll fight it. And I will demand offensive EVIDENCE, in your case the "video", in the court room while it is session.

Oh yeah, a good friend of mine is a city cop here in Orlando. I've known him since middle school. Even he hates cops. He told me, "But hey, someone's gotta do the dirty work."
