I got pulled over for the first time last night, and i was drinking...

So i was hanging out with a few friends last night and we were playing a few casual games of beer pong. We weren't looking to get smashed but it was something to do and hey maybe we will catch a buzz ....
Well, around 1am we ran out of beer and had to leave since our friend had work in the morning and it was her place we were at. The rest of us decided to head over to our other buddies house to throw down on a blunt. I had maybe 6 beers over a 2 hour period so i had a slight buzz and was more than fine to drive, though not legally of course. I try not to drive after i drink, even if all i have is a beer or two and the fact im 22 just because of the chance of getting pulled over for something simple...Which happened....
On the way to my friends house i noticed a cop cruising behind me. But i wasn't tripping because i knew i was driving fine and there was no reason for me to get pulled over. As soon as i go to pull into the AM/PM for a blunt wrap he flips his lights on and stops right behind me. Right away he starts with the 100 questions game, So where you headed?....Who's car is this?....If you were going to a friends house why did you pull into AM/PM? This is where i almost slipped a bit and almost said "To buy a blunt wrap". I was keeping a cool head but the only thing i was somewhat worried about was him smelling the beer on my breath. He asked for license and proof of insurance then finally let me know the reason he pulled me over was because i didn't have plates in the front . I have had my license for over 3 years now and haven't been pulled over once, no accidents and a clean record. After he ran my license he came back up to the car tossed my license to me and said "Get that shit taken care of". I kinda chuckled to my self and felt relieved as he was walking away....But as he was taking off i remembered that son of a bitch still had my proof of insurance, by the time i got out of my car to tell him he was taking off like speed racer...Not sure why he gave me my license back but not my proof of insurance...
Oh well, first time getting pulled over and i didn't get a DUI...And yes i really enjoyed that blunt....
I was just thrilled about getting off so thought i would share with you all....

Congrats (I guess?) on getting lucky. You can't always get away so easy though.
LOL Also, driving for 3 years and you never noticed you don't have a front liscense plate?

See everyone, not ALL cops are prick jobs.
OP, don't go drinking and driving. You endanger yourself and others regardless of how good you think your driving or how good your driving for real.
Let this be a lesson that next time it probably won't go down this smoothly.

You got off lucky man. Don't do that again. I'd call the police department and tell them that the cop still had your proof of insurance and request them to mail it to you or you go in and pick it up. That's an important little piece of paper.

Wonder why the cops over there don't have them?
I've always wondered about this...
They all must have a portable one, but it seems it's only used after someone fails a sobriety test (which I've never had to do...but imagine that one could pass this test legally drunk)

Front plates aren't required everywhere. My guess is the cop was just doing random drunk checks like they do all over my town. I live in a huge college town so there's lots of buzzed drivers on the roads every night and cops pull people over for zero reason to see if they caught an obvious drunk. They don't even do any real work to try to find them, just get behind a car and figure out what excuse to give. Getting a ride home a few times from completely sober people I've had this happen several times. Once was for a "tail light that was out" which worked fine, one was for "Going into the turn lane too early".... if the lane is there and I'm going that way.... why the fuck wouldn't I use it? Anyway bored cops are lame.

Why do they need a reason to pull you over? Seriously?
Why do they need a reason to search you? Why do they need a reason to enter your house? Why do they need a reason to beat the shit out of you and call it self defense? Because they're authority figures trying to uphold a legal doctrine, and pulling over random people for no reason isn't part of it.

Well then they ought to start kicking in doors and randomly testing people for weed, since way more than 1 in 55 people smokes pot.

How does me driving sober kill people?
You're asking for pre-emptive punishment, stick with it or don't. You don't want to arrest the drunk people that DO kill people or DO crash their cars... you want them to pull over any and every person to preemptively arrest the people who may cause harm based on a completely ridiculously chosen number of blood alcohol content.
So let's punish everybody for crimes they MIGHT commit like you want... or just the people who actually do the harm.

What I don't support is some "legal authority" telling me that they know I'm going to commit a crime before I do it. Sure it's no minority report but give me a fucking break if they pull over 50 people for NO REASON and 2 of those people who weren't breaking any traffic laws concerning the handling of their vehicle blow .09 and get DUI's you're saying that's good and the police have made the world a safer place, I say it's bullshit.
But all of a sudden you only want to apply this to drunk driving. It's not okay if you go into people's house (their property) to keep them from smoking weed (which is illegal) but it is okay to go into someone's car (their property) to keep them from drinking a LEGAL substance and driving? If you don't see the hippocracy in applying a preemptive solution to ONLY ONE INSTANCE BUT NOT ALL OTHERS then I'm really done trying to explain the point. I understand you think drunk drivers are the spawn of Satan but you can't just go around profiling and stopping and hassling people for something they MIGHT BE DOING IF YOU HAVE NO REASON TO SUSPECT THEY'RE DOING IT.
If a guy is swerving from lane to lane or drifting off the road or hitting guard rails then get their stupid drunk asses off the road... just stop pulling over the people who didn't do shit wrong and making up reasons to give sobriety tests. If we allow this kind of shit it's not far away where they'll be able to do blood/urine drug tests on the spot and arrest you for presence of any drugs (and I shouldn't have to tell you but I probably do that many drugs metabolites stay in your system far far after the time of ingestion - days or weeks)

Perhaps correcting the stupidity of a person who chooses to get drunk and drive through good education and personal responsibility would be more beneficial than increasing the potential for the government to harass citizens while on the road?

Dude I'm using weed as an example. Holy shit you're thick.
Fine, go arrest everybody that owns a gun, because more than 1 in 1000 guns is going to hurt or kill somebody in their life. Sure they haven't done it yet but since it's a danger we better take care of it before it happens since we know people better than they know themselves.

A few seconds? Each time I personally was pulled over sober for "drunk checking" they took both our ID's, and all the car insurance info. Took at least 10 minutes running all the info through the computer, came back and gave a bullshit reason for why they pulled us over and then proceed to ask if we were drinking, say they smell alcohol (when none was present or consumed at all), and then ask to search the vehicle. Having to deal with that bullshit and then the cop trying to convince you to say something incriminating is BULL SHIT. 15-20 minutes wastes because some bored cop wants to pull over random people. Which is illegal and called profiling in this country.

Designated zones for traffic stops are completely different than what I'm talking about. I can make the choice to drive that direction or down that route if I know I'm going to be stopped and checked. I can't choose not to have a cop harass me for something I didn't do while driving my friend home from work.

LOL Also, driving for 3 years and you never noticed you don't have a front liscense plate?
No we just got the car 3-4 months ago. I never even really noticed that there was no plate in the front, do now...
And to clear things up for those of you thinking i was driving around drunk....No i wasn't never have never will, I had a total of 6 beers over 2 1/2 hours or so on a full stomach and have quite a tolerance. Was it the most wise decision?...No. By law i would of been fucked, it would of been my life getting fucked over if i ended up with a DUI. But that fact i was behind the wheel last night was not putting other peoples life at risk, i would not drive if that was the case. I have drove with little sleep several times and IMO that's putting others at a much greater risk than having a few beers and driving at least for my self .
And yea i am thinking of calling the P.D. and letting them know that the officer kept my proof of insurance. It's not really a big deal, i can get another one but just the fact that happened. Common, how do you forget something like that?...

I got pulled over a few days ago. I wasn't in a car and I wasn't drunk, but I was on my bike and on mushrooms and pot.
I got away clean too, I even had my piece and a few stems with me.
note to self: cops can be nice if you are nice to them.

I've always wondered about this...
They all must have a portable one, but it seems it's only used after someone fails a sobriety test (which I've never had to do...but imagine that one could pass this test legally drunk)
Why bother with a soberity test though?
10 seconds and $0.50 per test and you got your answer.
I don't want drink drivers on the road, fuck them, I'm glad basically every single traffic stop over here comes a breath test and with the recent stats for RBT stations (1 in every 55 is driving over the legal limit) justify them completely.
The OP seems proud of the fact that he didn't get caught.
They bother with the sobriety tests to build more evidence against you. You will ALWAYS fail these tests and end up taking the breathalyzer.
