I got pulled over a few times in Jersey but they usually only give me a warning because of my family gold card! LOL! Thank God for the cops I know OR it can also be my work badge that says I work for a court. I am not allowed to tell a cop that I work for a court if I get pulled over or I can be fired. BUT if he sees it dangling from my rear view mirror, that's another story! LOL! :)

I got pulled over a lot in my twenties - from speeding to following a bus to closely to not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign. I can understand getting pulled over for breaking the law, but to get pulled over for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign? ::)

I can see how people get frustrated with cops when they truly get pulled over for really no reason.

I have been driving for 43 years and I am quite certain that I could count on one hand how many times that I have been pulled over. I do believe my army of guardian angels have been with me through the years while I've been behind the wheel.  :angel11: :angel11: :angel11: :angel11: :angel11:

Way too many times to remember!  I have a heavy foot on the accelerator!  Fortunately, I've only received one speeding ticket in my lifetime....

lol Last time I was with my mom, she got pulled over for "not stopping completely at a stop sign". Pulled over in her driveway, mind, since it was just down the street from the stop sign lol
Didn't get a ticket, but she was pretty annoyed about it (I know because she causally mentioned it a few days later when someone else didn't "completely stop" at a stop sign lol).

Lucky me, I can't contribute my own story here (yet  :angel12:).

A couple of times, but never got a ticket in the 50 plus years I have been driving. Well any way with my car. I did get a ticket on my bike.  Going down a hill with a 15 mile sign and ran a stop sign. By the time the judge got through laughing he dismissed it. But he did not let me forget it . He and his friends would show up for lunch and I would wait on them and have to tell on me. Oh well the tips were great. Because I would take the ribbing.

I got a break light that went out and a police officer informed me of this, but no penalties thus far (knock on wood).  Strangely enough a number of people I hang around with are notorious speeders.  One friend has had one of those boxes that sound off noises when he goes up to a certain speed limit and he's had something like this since his teens.

I got pulled over a couple of months ago, because I took long in the light and the police thought I was texting, which I wasn't. Thank God that he believed me and I didn't get a ticket.

I would have to say that I have been pulled over four or five dozen times. They say that Realtors and Lawyers get pulled over more times than anyone else.  I was a somewhat successful realtor and was always speeding.  There was one year that I got pulled over at least seventeen times. The funny thing is that I never got a ticket at any one of those pullovers! I even passed one police officer in the triple digits...on the way to paying for my automobile registration and he was angry but never gave me a ticket!  I attribute my luck to always being polite, respectful and honest when the police officers pulled me over.  I did , however, get a ticket two years ago and wasn't even speeding. They had twelve police on the expressway handing out tickets. I guess what goes around comes around.

I've had two speeding tickets and one for littering.  I personally did not litter, but the passenger in my car did.

I been pulled over several times but I think depending area it can be worst.  Also racial ways cause people to get pulled over more.

I got pulled over alot in my life time. I probably had about 7 fines out of all the times I was pulled over. Most recent I hit a DUI check point and I got pulled over for having my tail light out too which was the cops way of checking for DUI that time too. I was " Stone Cold Sober Both Times. " 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

I got pulled over for not coming to a complete stop at the stop sign too---many year ago.
The policeman told me I had done a "California stop"  and a stop means all four tires come to a complete stop for at least 3 seconds.

He was very polite and just told me to do a complete stop from now on.

Maybe around 8 altogether. Never for speeding, always for minor things like a missing taillight or headlight, not using turning signals, no seatbelt, etc.
