I've seen this countless times but I've never watched it in action. How does a cop do this? If I'm summoned by a cop to pull over along with multiple other cars and someone does pull over, I'm continuing my drive. What is he going to do - tell the one who pulled over to kindly stay there while he comes after me and brings me back to the original location?

Maybe I'm stupid but I just don't see how cops are able to do this. What's more, I don't see why multiple people actually listen and pull over once the first one does.

Happened to me once


He pulled me over first and then flagged the other guy to pull over



I assume if the other guy had kept going, the cop would have gone after him and maybe let me go. Doubt it though

Yeah go ahead and not pull over when a cop waives you down. Good luck with that.

My wife is a teacher. She got pulled over in the school zone at 7am on the way to school. Light had literally just started blinking. Cop waves another person over while she was pulled over and she started yelling to the other car that the cop didn't radar them. Cop threatened to arrest my wife.

If the cop is on the side of the road couldn't you just claim that you didn't see him?

It's really simple. Just keep driving. If the cop comes after you and pulls you over, tell him you didn't see him because you were busy playing candy crush on your phone.

I have pondered this on many occasions.

When I got a ticket on Staring there were two cops running radar in for eastbound traffic and two cops for westbound traffic. After I was issued a ticket, the two cops on the eastbound side proceeded to flag down at least three vehicles.

Personally, if I was the last of three I would have kept on going.

First speeding ticket I ever got (15-16 years old) was with one of my friends while we were screwing around. Cop pulled up besides me and pointed to the side, then jumped ahead of me and pulled behind the other guy to get him to pull over. The ole 2fer.

Several years ago - I was getting on I-110 by the BR airport and cop on a bike was setup on the loop for seat belt / inspection sticker check. He had like 4 people pulled over - he walked into the road and saw my inspection sticker was expired and pointed for me to pull over. I waved at him and kept on rolling.

Ain't nobody got time for that!!

I've had a cop pull me over and tell me over his PA to stay there and that he had my license plate number. He went stop another car for speeding with me. Then came back a prolonged period of time after to ticket me.

I wasn't willing to call that bluff.

Those who kept driving committed the crime of "disobeying a police officer's order."

HTH.

First, he pulls over one vehicle. Then, he asks for license and registration and promptly gets back in his car and drives off with them. He then pulls over the other vehicle, gets their license and registration, and then gives the first vehicle their ticket and their information back.

This happened to me in Mississippi. I was following about a half-mile behind a corvette that was speeding on my way to Birmingham. I assumed that if there was a cop, he'd nab the corvette and I'd have enough warning to get past him. Instead, he got both of us and pulled us over side by side. I was so impressed that I told the cop that the ticket was worth the price of admission to that show. He was a nice guy. Ended up getting the ticket plead down to a non-moving violation and the fee cut in half.
