Best encounter you've had with a cop

I was driving home for spring break and I was pulled over by a state trooper in Mexia (hour south of Dallas) while heading towards 45. Im ok with city cops but I hate troopers so I was already pissed. He walked to the car and asked for my license and registration then told me I was speeding (78in a 65). I told him I was driving from college station and wanted to make it home in time to go to out with some friends. He laughed and said "You kids are always rushing. Slow down son. You'll live a little longer". I turned my car back on and my fuel light blinked which he noticed. He told me I could follow him to a gas station and fill up. We drove for a few minutes and I filled up at the nearest station. He comes out of the gas station then tells me he lost his daughter in a wreck after she was driving home from school in Waco and that he wished she lived a little longer. You could tell he was from east Texas so I was nervous at first. In the end I realized there are actually good cops out there that are just as human as we are.

When one offered me beer and weed at Jazz Fest.
My personal favorite, though was after the LSU vs Alabama game in 2012. I was driving from Baton Rouge to Birmingham for a job interview the Sunday after the game. I'm running late, so I'm speeding through some of the less populated regions of Mississippi, following about half a mile behind a speeding red sports car, thinking if there's a cop, he'll get the sports car and I'll have enough warning to slow down and not get caught.
Around Picayune, a cop pops out and pulls me over. He comes over to the car, asks more my license and registration, gets back in his car, and takes off after the other car. He then pulls the other car to the side of the road right in front of mine, gets his info, comes back to my car to give me the ticket, and then lets me go on my way. I was impressed to say the least.

One helped me find a bottle of Scotch at Green's liquor store about 20 minutes ago.

I've never had a bad one. I get pulled over about once a year and I've only received one ticket (SC Highway Patrol) and I definitely deserved it but the trooper wrote me up as going a good bit slower than I actually was so it was cool.
The only LEOs I've had less than pleasant experiences with were from Wisconsin DNR.

I had a raced a cop on Highway 130 (fastest road in US) that's about the only good experience I had with a cop

Most have been good. My best one was one where I did get a ticket actually.
It was my first week in a job and it was the week before school started. I was looking for the Admin Building of the school on the right side of the road.
Apparently there was a private school that started a week early on the left side and I sped through there @ 60 (the posted limit when the light wasn't flashing)in a 35. School zone. They guy came up pretty angry at me and I explained I really just missed it. He went back to his car and took a while. When he came back he ran my record and saw I hadn't got a ticket in 10 years and said that he felt really bad. He said there was no way he couldn't give me a ticket because of the school zone but he dropped my speed on the ticket to 44 and gave me a guide to the building I was looking for.

I've never had a bad one. Generally, if you respect the officer as a human and don't act like a count, you won't have problems. I say this as a person that doesn't like the idea of large police forces or sometimes cops in general. I normally don't break the law, and in the few times I've been pulled over, a ticket could have been warranted each time but I only got one when I was 16.
Most people are mad when they get caught, personal accountability is lost in this world.

None I hate the police. They give out fricking MIPs for having an empty beer can. Pigs. FTP

That's just cops in tourist towns. That's how they make their money.

Yep sounds like Ralph. He's a real nice guy one of the very few cops I like

It's funny how we get drive-bys from LSU posters who only post on TD.
TigerBait2008 has posted 8 times on the OTB. That's 0.05% of his total posts. It's been 257 days since he last posted here. He stopped by just to talk shite for half a second and then leave.
