I've been pulled over by 3 state troopers.
2 were cordial, 1 was a fucking dickhead, and all 3 gave tickets.
The first 2 I deserved, I was speeding a bit and they caught me. Fair enough. My bad. The 3rd was just a couple months ago and he claimed I was "following too close".... even though I was nowhere near him and he was going about 40 in a 65. He was either intentionally baiting me into following too closely, or the more likely scenario is that he thought I was alone in the carpool lane. However, my brother was in the passenger seat reclined taking a nap.
Regardless of why he pulled me over, after he did he tried to provoke me into an argument the entire time. VERY confrontational and aggressive. I shut my mouth and took it at first until I had finally had enough and told him how fucking slow he was going and asked him to just give me my ticket and be on his way rather than lecture me for something I didn't do.
He then started acting like a toddler, said "You don't have a plate on the front of your car do you?!" and marched back to his car with the ticket he had already written. I assumed he was adding to the ticket, but instead he just sat there for like 10 minutes then came back and gave me the original ticket and left.
I was fucking furious. Not about the ticket, but about his douchiness and ego. The guy was no older than 25, about 5 foot 5 and clearly had a Napoleon complex or something because he was a true asshole. Naturally the complaint I filed was promptly ignored and they said proper procedure was followed. Way to protect and serve by driving half the speed limit then pulling people over who are in no way endangering anyone around them.
