Anybody ever honked at a cop that doesnt go when light turns green?

This is a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode.

My hand was on the horn and I sweated it out for maybe 4-5 seconds before he noticed the light and moved.

I giggled a bit.

I did it to a St Slammany Deputy a few years ago. Light turned green and I could see he had his phone in front of his face. Gave em a honk and he put the phone down and got going.

I prefer to keep my wife and dog bullet-free, so no.

Idk why, but this is something I would do as I’ve always treated officers like normal people.

It’s like the people who are somehow scared to pass a cop on the highway. Move out my way

I've gone with the 2 quick honks at a DPS capitol dude before. He still gave me the rear view look up but at least it got the lazy bastard to move. The key is to only use half a palm like you're playing along to Mr. Tambourine Man. Don't go full cowbell, that could get ugly.

Don’t poke the bear

Have you seen what the average BRPD beat cop looks like?

No but in HS, back when I was an idiot, one was going about 60 on vets without his lights on, so I sped up to follow just to see if I could get away with it. He brake checks me, swerves to the right lane, gets next to me and absolutely lays into my arse. Then speeds off again.

Haven't done that since.
