Now as I cant drive yet I , and that seems where the majority of the debate is, I thought I wouldn't say anything, but since that was said I decided I will.
Of COURSE it DOESN"T mean they are wankers. But the police might be going with the statistics; now for all I know the majority of 'nice car' drives might be clean, but lets just say they aren't...
Cops protect people, and when they see those 'nice cars' they go with the majority. Of course not all 'nice car' drivers are druggies, speeders or generally abusers; but more people who drive sup'd up cars are younger, and generally younger people are experimenting.
Cops are TRYING to save lives.
Imagine if a crazed drug addict has a gun to your head, hates your guts, and is probalby going to shoot you. Cop walks in. He (or she , equal gender rights) and the first thing they notice is the gun to your head. Of course he MAY not shoot, the gun MAY be a bubble gun, the drugs could be PROZAC making him mentally stable, but should the cop take that chance?
Now that is an extreme, but for every cop its judgement; look at the chances, and then act. Who is hurt if they pull you over for 5 minutes? Unless you have a quick acting poison, it probably won't.
Oh yeah, and not all cops are trafficers. Think of Detectives who investigate who murdered your wife. Would you rather not have them doing that? Think of cops who stop mass tele marketing, think of the ones who stop mass murderers. Sure some may be well dickheads, but not all.
So when you next get pulled over, think that one cop may be a retard, but the majority is saving yo' ass everyday.
