Well I brought my dad into my room.. was like "dad can I talk to you about something.." I think he thought I got my gf preggy or something so I tell him "Dad I messed up really bad" then give him the ticket and hes like dude thats all? So I have my court date in 2 weeks.
But I told me dad that I noticed the cop also had a guy in the car that I believe either was shirtless or had a wife beater on... And my dad said since it wasn't another cop in the car he isn't allowed to drive people around and make a traffic stop. So were going to talk to the mayor since were good friends with him.
Dude, that's great.
Way to get your dad not to care!
And I don't know if it varies from city to city, but a lot of places do ride-a-longs. You can't just stop and pick up a friend, but I've been on approved rides with officers before. In one the officer issued a ticket, in another the officer arrested someone. Come to think of it, they both arrested someone...
The only thing they can't do is get in chases. Stupid liability...
