Never this, but I had a local blow by me one day doing close to 70 and the speed limit was 35. When I pulled up to the next light on the side of him I signaled him to roll his window down. I asked him if he was responding to a call, he said no. I said man maybe you should slow it down. He said yes sir (younger kid) 
Another time one of my good friends and myself left to go to Dallas on a Saturday morning early around 3 am to trade his truck in. We were around Franklin on hwy 90 and someone was on his back bumper. He was going around 78 already in the left lane passing cars. Well he proceeds to brake check the hell out of the car. We pass the last car and get over in the right lane and It is a parish cop passing us. :lol:

Yep, unmarked car. Light changed the passenger and driver were fussing with the GPS, I hit the horn and got pulled over and given a ticket for illegal use of the horn

I was driving down a frontage road when an unmarked cop dangerously pulled in front of me from the shoulder. I was doing about 60 and had to slam on my brakes. I honked and went around.
He then flips the lights on and pulls me over.
I get out of car and he was like "Why TF did you blow your horn at me"
I immediately proceeded to chew his arse for not looking and dangerously entering the road placing my family in peril
He got all defensive and started accusing me of being the one who was dangerous. I just kept saying "No sir...NO SIR"
His boss pulls behind, runs my license and sends me on my way
I get back to the car and my 5yo son was crying because he thought daddy was going to jail

You got to get their attention away from their laptop that's mounted on side of the steering wheel.
There is an area by my house where people pass through a stop sign and they are usually flying by. Old people always call and complain so they will put a cop out there from time to time. There will be cars flying by, one after another, and the officer is in his car fricking around on the internet. frick them, if they don't notice the light turned green, blow at them.

I was on my way to work a couple of years ago, traveling down a normally busy suburban street (3 lanes in either direction with a median/neutral ground). The sun wasn’t up all the way yet and the speed limit was 40mph when I saw a dark SUV hauling arse behind me and jumping from lane to lane. No headlamps, no turn signals, no emergency lights. He blew by me and continued for about half a mile before whipping a u-turn and speeding back in the other direction.
He got even with me and I laid on the horn. He looked at me and I gave him a big thumbs down gesture. He whipped another u-turn and turned on his emergency lights. The unit wasn’t marked like a regular police unit and might not even have had the ghost markings.
He asked if there was an emergency and I told him that he was the emergency and his driving was putting people and property at risk. Called him a loose cannon and explained that he wasn’t above the law. I knew he wouldn’t ticket me because he wouldn’t want this being documented in court. Sure enough, he gave me a warning for excessive use of the horn and that was that.
The next day, he had some woman in a minivan pulled over. I should have honked.

Didnt want a chicken shite ticket for showing an oblivious cop up for
So instead of a chicken shite ticket you just decided to be a chicken shite. I pulled in behind a county cop yesterday and asked him how much they saved on not having turning signals and he just laughed.

One time I picked my kids up from daycare. I took a left hand turn with a cop behind me. He immediately pulled me over. The officer came to my window and asked me why I ran a red light. He then looked in the back seat and saw my son and daughter crying and hitting each other. He looked back at me and said, sir have a good day. He probably got back in his car and laughed his arse off.

Many years ago while riding with my former brother in law, a cop was pulling out of a parking lot and my BIL had to slam on his brakes and stayed on the horn. Cop pulled him over and there was a short arguing match between him and BIL. Never understood that one. It was Crowley PD so it doesn't surprise me one bit.

He didn't shoot at your Ferrari?

It’s like the people who are somehow scared to pass a cop on the highway.
A few years ago I'm driving to the gym in moderate traffic and I'm in the left lane driving parallel to a police unit clearly marked "K-9" in the right lane. No one is in front of me and no one in front of him for quite a distance, all the traffic is behind us. The speed limit is 50 and he's going just under (46 mph) and he has a bit of traffic behind him. I have to get in the right lane to make a turn so I speed up slightly to get in front of him. I'm a more than a few car lengths in front of him when I make the lane change, signalling well before I make the lane switch. I have my Waze app going and it shows I'm going 47 prior to the lane change and although I didn't check it during the lane change I probably sped up to around 54, if that.
As mentioned, I'm several car lengths ahead of him when I make the change so there's no way I cut him off. After I get in the right lane he zips in the left lane and pulls up next to me, gesturing wildly. I kind of shrug him off and keep driving. He gets in behind me and rides my bumper and clearly gets on his radio calling in my plates. I see no radar or dash cam and the only law I may have broken was going maybe 4-5 miles over the limit so I'm not sure what he's going to cite me for. I turn on the memo app on my cell in preparation for getting pulled over so I can record the conversation. I make a right, then a left, then another right into the gym parking lot and he's on my tail the whole way and follows me until I park. I park and get out and he sits there and glares before driving off. I know, CSB. The only thing I can think of that may have set him off was he probably thought "this guy has some balls for passing a clearly-marked police unit" but frick that guy. Damn Scottsdale cops have a bad rep, with nothing better to do than arrest jaywalkers and harass decent law-abiding citizens.

Yes. No problem. Tipped me a wave.

I was 3 cars behind a APSO deputy who was not turning right on red. I blew the horn for about 1 second. Nothing. Waited a few seconds and another 1 second blast . Nada. Next I laid on the horn like a ship cutting though a fog bank. He proceeds to get out of his car, turns to see who is honking, then points up at the "No Turn On Red" sign. He goes to get back into his car while the light turns green so I gave it another honk as he turned right. I quickly changed lanes and turned left.

I would make every effort to refrain from doing that.

Never had the opportunity. You missed a chance. Cop was fricking off on his phone and you caught him.
Posted on 7/21/22 at 8:00 pm to Cosmo
I did one time.
Once.

I brake checked a cop (unknowingly) one time when I was on vacation. Dude was on my arse so I hit the brakes and he had to lock his brakes down to keep from hitting me. I saw stuff from the backseat fly to the dash. He immediately hit the blue lights on me. I thought oh frick! 
He pulled up beside me shaking his finger at me and continued on his way. This was on the interstate and we were probably running 75 mph. I was in the right lane and the left lane was clear. No idea why he was on my arse.
