Seemed like he did his homework and was pretty knowledgeable about the subject. I didn't realize that cops in Georgia are more likely to be overzealous cowboys than cops in other states. I always figured it was like that in every state. The Youtuber got the first ticket of his life while researching the story. I was pulled over somewhere between 25-30 times by the time I was in my mid 20s.

His final theory:

40 percent – overzealous cops
40 percent – still doesn't know/hard to say
20 percent – Kirby has an alpha program and his players are competetive at everything

Did you drive a red corvette with a 'frick the police' bumper sticker?

I have been lawfully driving a vehicle for over 2 decades and have been pulled over a grand total of probably around 7 or 8 times.

To be pulled over that often, that young, is absolutely a "you" issue and nothing to do with cops.

Riding around listening to music and smoking weed was what we did back then. Meanwhile you probably had your hands at 10 to 2 with your seat in the upright position and thinking about who you could snitch on next, which is fine. To each their own. Congrats on always being a goodie goodie.

I lived in Athens for a bit over a decade at driving age. I was pulled over and ticketed there more than I have been the rest of my life by a lot.

I also, like many teenagers, drove around smoking and drinking too. You won't get pulled over for listening to music or smoking weed. You'll get pulled over for how you drive as a result of it, probably blasting your music with windows down and going way too fast or too slow.

Believe it or not, you can drive as fricked up as you want, listening to whatever music you want, and not get pulled over if you are driving the speed limit and not drawing attention to yourself. You probably overlooked that part.

People outside of Georgia don't understand how much more aggressive the law operates in georgia, people in Georgia don't realize that how the law conducts itself in other states may be completely indifferent.... an unpaid ticket may be a civil issue in another state where they suspend your license and arrest you in ga as examples.....
