It actually happens a lot, my dad was a cop in Cincinnati, and Columbus and now he is a state trooper up there but he said they try and do stuff like that all the time... normally the cops aren't just paying attention to that one person though... so idk... but my dad did say it happened to him on more then one occasion.
well my lady was driving my subaru while i sat in the passenger seat recovering from a christmas party last year...we were driving home around 2am and i saw a cop sitting up ahead and the speed limit was 35 and i looked over to see how fast we were going and we were going 34. We pass him and of course WOOT WOOT and pulls us over. Saying he clocked her going 48 mph. I was soo angry at that point I just couldnt hold back because I know we were not speeding I may have been drunk but I clearly saw she was going the speed limit. Shes 26 and has never had a ticket or been pulled over. BUT anyway I start yelling to the cop how unjust he was and how he was jealous of my sweet ride lol and then start flicking my lawyers cards at him and my ladys card (she was still in law school at the time)...my gf was freaking out and gave me the evil eye so naturally i stfu. So luckly I know most of the local cops and call the presinct in the morning, just to find out this cop wasnt even running a radar. They did the test or whatever they do before they go out and the radar was not reading right so he was sent out just to do patrols. The ticket was thrown out and I did my monkey dance.
c/n: i tell a cop he is lieing while I am wasted (not driving) and later find out he didnt even have his radar in the car.
