I got pulled over in my driveway once. I was driving my old beater car and the inspection sticker was like a year out of date. Right as I got near my house I passed a cop. I turned into my neighborhood and floored it. Stupid gas pedal stuck to the floor I managed to get into my driveway and was standing outside the car with the door still open when the cop came flying up my street with the lights/siren on. He pulled into my driveway real fast, hit a big patch of ice, and almost took out a fire hydrant. I LOL'd at him, walked up to the cop car, told him that he was driving waaaay too fast, and asked what the problem was.

To cut a long story short I got a ticket for an out of date inspection. When the cop asked me why I took off I told him "because I thought it was funny"

sure they can give you a ticket in your driveway, it's not like it's a big game of tag out there and if you get to your house first your safe cause your on base. but yeah, cops can be very weird sometimes.

Though there were no lights yet, but I have a feeling there would have been.

Yeah this always seems to happen to me but I close the garage door just in time. Plus there's two ways you can go on my street and they always take the wrong one (I live on a corner) so I see them fly by at like mach 3 5 seconds after the garage closes. They'll figure out where I live one of these days...

The cop was probably just letting you know you were going a little fast. I've done the same (floored it to the speed limit) then have cops just sit on my tail looking for a reason to pull me over.

Naturally so there would be no risk of rear-ending me, i floored it, tires sqealing. I accelerated till about 50, speed limits 45, then spotted a cop about 50 ft. up on the side of the road. I quickly put it in neutral and slowed it down to 40 as i past her. She pulled out, follwed me dangerously close. I mean so close if i decided to be a jerk and brake checked her she would of hit me for sure.
Anyway, i pull in my driveway, and she stops in front of my driveway. At this point i was boiling, as i knew even though i might of floored it to avoid that malibu, i didn't do anything wrong. I got out of the car, and just looked at her. She slowly pulled away.

What did she think she was gonna write me a ticket for something in my ****ing driveway??? Are they even allowed to do that? How about pulling over that malibu who blew through the stop sign onto a main rd.

I mean c'mon, i had cops follow me before on the way home, but not actually stop in my friggin driveway.
The police officer witnessed the violation on a public road and they can follow you as long as they want before they stop you and yes they can issue you a ticket even though you stopped in your driveway. Technically you broke the speed limit it you were traveling 50 in a 45.

Haha...move to Georgia

Unless you're doing 11+, the cop (unless it's a state patrol) can't pull you over for speeding. Then again, they'd most likely come up with BS excuse like accelerating to quickly or too fast for conditions...anything they can say to help increase the donut fund...

I hate to call you out on the not pulling you over unless you are going over 11+ but that is completely false......I am da fuzz and was a Baton Rouge police officer for 10 years. You can be pulled over and cited no matter where you are located for going 1 over the speed limit.

Oh and one more thing, I dont eat donuts

Why the hell can't we ever have a thread where we stay on topic? And for ****s sake, don't insult cops on here, we have some great guys on here who are in fact cops.

Pastries? Kolaches? Muffins?

We all have to indulge in some type of breakfast sweet on occasion.
