What’s the standard for using lethal force? It used to be to respond to lethal force.

If I’m walking to my tailgate to talk my way out of a speeding ticket, how’s that deadly force?

Call me crazy……I just fricking pay attention when I drive.

This is seriously one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.
Have you been pulled over for being suspected of being drunk? Using a turn signal when it is not appropriate seems like a red flag.


Do you also put your hazards on when it is raining?

You just want me to use the blinker so you can speed up and not let me in.

This is an epidemic in Texas. Idiots stop right in the road.

I asked a Hoover cop this the other day because he pulled me over because my turn signal light was out. I pulled into a gas station parking lot rather than the side of the road. He said, "Hey thanks for getting out of traffic..." and then just let me slide. But I asked him about people pulling over in the median on busy highways and his reply was, "People are fricking retarded."

I've actually seen people stop in the left lane on 65 before when state trooper goes for them.. It ain't the cop forcing the stop right there lol

I KNOW! But why would anyone pull over in the median on Hwy 31 in HOOVER? There are 18 parking lots every quarter mile. Why obstruct traffic and put an officer's life in danger? But I see these retards every damn day.

Must really be desperate to pull that stunt. I can’t imagine it is safe with how crazy drivers are today.

They don’t try to pull people over in the middle of the road. It’s the dumbass drivers that have no idea what to do so they stop in the road, which kind of explains why they are being pulled over in the first place
