Why you never roll down the Windows all the way for cops.

Cops pull a cripple and a blind man out of car for "tag light"

A B.S. pretextual stop over a "tag light" turns into we smell marijuana. We need to search.

The cripple and the blind man are smart enough not let down their windows. The cop tricks the wife in the backseat to let hers down by pretending to want to pet the dog.

I mean yeah, but their next step is just to order everyone out of the car, which they can legally do.

How am I supposed to throw a pen at him, if I don't have a clear opening?

Maybe they won’t smell the weed and meth if we just crack the window a little.

You can't legally order a person who physically can't exit the vehicle out of the vehicle. There is case law in the 5th circuit which governs Texas that affirms this.

It's funny how 2 officers at the front windows talk to the cripple and blind man for 5 mins prior, the a 3rd officer walks up and randomly smells marijuana.


They also just happen to find no marijuana after a search.

Bad policing is a plague on society.

I don’t get that bothered by it or get bothered by being pulled over.

Everytime i have gotten pulled over, i was usually speeding so i wasn’t gonna get mad about a guy doing his job because, well yeah, i was speeding

So i just take the ticket. Plus 75% of the time being nice, smiling, and respectful, i have have been let go without a ticket

well, technically they have to be in a reasonable fear for their safety to order you out. which, if there's body camera and dash cam footage, they often won't be able to prove.

Maybe it's much harder to fabricate the lie of a non existent odor f you don't let the window down. No weed was found during the search.

Maybe dont have that skunky smelling crap in your car.

You will never win an argument with a cop on the side of the road. Do what they say and settle it in court.

"The dope"? Stay off it.

Nancy Reagan was right. If you stay in school and off "the dope", you'll probably make out okay.

Deviate from this advice at your own peril.

Prove it. And provide that proof in a court of law.

They also wouldn't allow the man to use his catheter and forced him to piss himself while on the ground on the side of the highway. The ADA lawyers will bankrupt that podunk Texas town.


According to the law you should allow that person to sit in the car and conduct minimal search.

The search was bogus. There was never a smell of marijuana. It was fabricated to create probable cause for a search that turned up no drugs.

What kind of podunk police department is this?



Some dude pulls me over looking like that, I'm probably driving off thinking he's impersonating a police officer.
