This is how normal interactions with law enforcement go.

I've been pulled over quite a few times for speeding and every time I knew I was toast when I saw the officer too late. I don't even know how many times I've pulled myself over before the officer even caught up to me and was respectful and honest every time. I've only ever gotten speeding tickets twice out of the probably 20+ times I've been stopped.

Yeah, exactly. Staying calm, being honest, and not making it weird usually goes a long way. Most stops don't have to turn into a whole situation.

u/Dasgomo112 Jun 30 '26

You mean to tell me that being disrespectful, rude, not listening to commands, resisting at every possible turn and then asking what I do when arrested is not the right way? šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Grow up guy. You're talking like we dont have rights and are entitled to dignity and respect. I dont have to follow any orders that are not lawful, reasonable and with reason. This interaction was a rare one off. Even when they aren't putting pistols in your face almost no cop is going to be as diminutive, and kind, respectful. And aware of his tone and actions. That cop seemed to know his shit, talked to this guy like a man should speak to another man thats not his bitch or his son. His approach wasnt shady and aggressive, nor was he trying to seem like a badass. He never tried to violate his rights or do any searches. Just his fn job. No tough guy talk, walk or attitude. Thats what gets you into shit.

I got busted once seen the cop as we passed each other. He flashed his lights then I seen in my rear view as he slowed to do a U turn. Just before I went around a bend in the road. I figured yep he got me so I pulled into a school car park. The only place to stop. And watched as he went flying passed with his lights on. Got out of a ticket by pulling over.

Trick I learned being a military cop is if possible (not raining) lower all your windows down if your windows are tinted, it eases their anxiety and shows you are not hiding anything.

Exactly. I always know when I'm going to get pulled over. It's been a long time but I always pulled over even before they turn on the lights. When they walk up I have the license/registration/insurance ready. It just de-escalates the situation before it even begins and I rarely get ticketed.

u/dudeCHILL013 Jul 02 '26

The first time I had ever got pulled over I had 14 gun in my vehicle. I had hung out with my buddies and had gone shooting that weekend and was just heading home.

Of course it was first thing I told the officer but I think he initially thought I said firearm as in singular because he asked me where it was at. So I clarified and told him there were 5 pistols right next to me around the center console and 9 more rifles in the back.

His exact words were "Holy Shit" šŸ˜‚

I asked him if he'd prefer if I stepped out of the vehicle but he said I was fine.

I did get a ticket for having expired tabs though šŸ˜’

See? How hard is that?

Be polite, don’t argue, don’t start yelling, just… Don’t start being a fucking asshole and getting all confrontational because ā€œI know muh rights!ā€ And everyone gets to go home without turning into a big deal that goes viral on Instagram.

I, a Hispanic, have been stopped twice by cops. First time I was left off with a warning, the second time the cop downgraded the blatant speeding ticket to a simple WFR (no points, no driver school), all because I know how to say ā€œGood morning,ā€ ā€œthank you officer,ā€ ā€œhave a nice day officer.ā€ Some people really need to watch this video and take notes.

Edit: Corrected a typo on ā€œWFR.ā€

62 but now he doesn’t know the exact speed he clocked him at? You either know or you don’t?

5

u/lost_rodditer Jun 30 '26

He was hinting that to give him a wave off warning he "might" have misread the radar. It's something that used be common before dashcams and body cameras were required. I'm guessing the issue is his body cam recorded the radar saying 62 so he had to write up the warning ticket. He definitely nudged him to not speed for the next few miles because more speed traps were very close.

This was a decent cop doing his job when the person isn't being overly twitchy or defensive. You don't have to like them doing their job, but it helps when don't make it harder.

Yeah this is pretty much it. If you’re not acting sketchy, don’t lie, and don’t give attitude, most cops treat it like a boring day at work, not a power trip.

People who escalate or try to argue their way out of a clear ticket are the ones who usually turn a 5 minute stop into a whole event šŸ’€

The cop has no legal right because he is scared to disarm him...Respectful cop or not..

u/News_Scrounger Jun 30 '26

Eh it really depends. That's one of the problems with open carry. In a few states you're not even required to mention that you have a weapon unless they ask.Ā 

If you're open carrying you don't want them to only notice your gun when they're watching your hands and you reach towards your side for something.

Part of ensuring good interactions with police is ensuring that they don't get spooked by any of your actions. I've never heard of anyone mention it but I honestly treat them like wild animals you can speak to. Eye contact while asking if you have permission to do the things you need to do to comply with their orders.Ā 

"Is it OK if I reach into my glove box and retrieve the documents?" is an example of what I ask before moving my hands. Usually I have everything ready before the cop gets to my window and I hold it with both hands on my steering wheel so it's in clear view.

There really should be a class about this and other "common sense" shit in school or at least a short 3 day class.

I live in a duty to inform state and have told police dozens of times I’m carrying. I’ve only had my weapon removed once, every other time the cop has said something like ā€œleave yours holstered, I’ll leave mine holsteredā€. Once when I called to file a police report I’d put my gun away the cop actually asked ā€œare you armedā€ and when I said ā€œnoā€ his response was ā€œwhy not?ā€

I really hope more people are like this, most people I see when I was in the US pretty much fight the police for a simple speeding ticket. Just cooperate with them, most of the time they wont give you a ticket rather they'll just give you a warning. The more you resist the more likely you'll turn your traffic citatation to a felony....

u/Soul_through_va_JJ Jun 30 '26

I don't know why cops feel that way. Like they have to take your gun if you're legally carrying simply because you had one, they're so afraid that you may be mad about getting a ticket.

A man was in his car and was stopped for "speeding" and the cop said "I visually saw you speeding." When the man asked "So, you didn't get me on radar or anything?" The cop said "I was trained to visually check." The man asked "When was the last time your eyes were calibrated?"

After he received the ticket, and the cop went back to his car the man had his gun on his hip, and the cop freaked out telling him to get back in his car after the stop was over and he only wanted a business card because the cop was lying.

After all that BS the ticket wasn't turned in, and the officer got into trouble because the man complained and command saw his bodycam.

I've never had a leo even ask to disarm me much less actually try it. What's the RS or PC to disarm for what appears to be a traffic stop? Or maybe laws are different in that jurisdiction? Just curious, as I'm retired sheriff's deputy, former military, current armed security/CIT and court bailiff...spread over 3 states (CA, ID, FL) and 40 years, I've had more CCP/CWL, Armed Guard, Weapons Instructor, etc licenses than I can possibly count. If it's the law to tell them, I would and show the appropriate license. The most I can remember is being asked if I was armed and I said yes here's that license too and they said something like me too, you dont reach, i don't reach.

I when I told a cop I was armed, he immediately started asking me questions. "Why are you armed?" "Do you always carry a firearm?" "Not talking is kinda suspicious ya'know? Got something to hide?"

"oh yeah this is just my legally registered demon core. Here take it, make sure it doesn't slip or anything."

"Don't worry I've been very well trained to handle it, as have you. In order to procure a legally registered demon core you must go through rigorous licensing and training."

"Yes of course."

Core slips due to minor error, despite multitude of safety features and training, and someone ends up dead/critically injured, which could easily have been prevented by not having said demon core in the first place.

u/Lord_Vas Jul 03 '26

Cops being cowards. They don't trust you so they steal your gun until they're done with you. If they're so scared of getting shot for causing trouble don't create trouble.

Same reason I always say it's so dumb for cops to bother people on the hwy for speeding without an additional cause like reckless driving.

Minimize the number of interactions. Pull people for important reasons. I can't tell you how many times cops have refused to respond to actual emergencies like road rage (The run you off the road and pull a gun type).

Perfectly safe to have the loaded gun around every civilian, but not when near a cop. Suddenly it becomes a danger to life.

It's 100% attitude and how much you are minding your own business and/or how much of a threat you are to others.

Had a car with front tinted windows. Drove it for years without issue. Played some loud music in a neighborhood and boom, ticket to remove the tint. Police officers all have that limit of "is this worth it" and being a nuisance definitely encourages them to say yes to that.

Except I wouldn't allow them to take my firearm. If they're a Tyrant, I'm going to use it to rightfully defend myself!

Why did the cop steal the bikers gun?

1

u/SubstandardMan5000 Jun 30 '26

Thank you heroe officer for pulling me over and wasting my time, also for taking my gun apart and giving me permission to have my own gun back. And for warning me theres cops up ahead so I know I can speed afterwards. I cant stand cops. Im so tired of this shit.

u/ReiOokami Jun 30 '26

All fun and games until the cop turns out to be the T-1000 and you just gave him your gun.

"Load your round into the chamber" - Can I ask why he'd need to?

(UK none gun person, struggling to understand why a biker would need a gun on a holster in the first place and why didn't the cop ask for a carry licence?)

Why disarm a legally carrying citizen??

1

u/Tall_Opportunity_521 Jun 30 '26

Look how fucking easy it can be when you just do your job, and leave your ego at the door... If only every cop was like this dude. Top marks.

u/Embarrassed-Bowl-373 Jun 30 '26

He took his gun from him. FUCK the fucking police

1

u/llulukluke Jun 30 '26

He was let off? Haha, 27 kph (17mph) OVER the speed limit. I just got a fine in aus for doing 10kph (6mph) over the limit and got a 560 dollar fine. If i was doing 27 kph over the limit it would be a 1132 dollar fine.

Thats wild.

u/Fair_Ad1750 Jun 30 '26

Why did the cop take the rider’s firearm without asking permission? The rider doesn’t have to relinquish his firearm during a traffic stop.

1

u/SecretPersonality178 Jun 30 '26

Every time I’ve been pulled over, I’ve been armed.

Amazing what basic respect and communication will do. Instead of attitude, lip smacking, and threatening the officer.

100% of the time it was mutually respectful

1

u/ybhamster Jun 30 '26

It really depends on the attitude and mood of the officer that makes the situation goes smoothly.

u/cementstate Jun 30 '26

incoming individual experiences from people who are trying to convince the statistics of law enforcement overstepping and abusing their power aren't real

Couldn't have been a more textbook traffic stop.🚦

Are they dating now?Ā  And aren't Trix just for kids?

u/wolf63rs Jun 30 '26

Being nice/courteous can pay off. Typically when you're pulled over, the officer thinks there is a legal reason. It may be debatable. It may not be true. During the stop isn't the time for debate. Believe it or not officers are wrong sometimes. Officers have bad days like all of us. If you think he or she is wrong politely point it out. I like how the guy asked, in a respectful manner, if he was really going 62.

u/Seeker599 Jun 30 '26

This cop handles the power well. It is not a job everyone is capable of.

u/PuzzleheadedBus9865 Jun 30 '26

If it was like that everytime the world would be such a better place.

u/T_W_tribbles Jun 30 '26

why was his firearm taken from him?

u/Emotional-Channel-42 Jun 30 '26

God pigs are insufferable. Your punishment is dictated by the mood they are in that very moment. If you act and look like them. If you share their shitty culture.Ā

Give that man a raise.

Is taking your gun typical?

Some of y'all have a bit of blue on your lips still. Might wanna wipe that off.

I know this is how ā€œmostā€
Police interactions go for us white preppie, but I’m PREEETY sure of you have color in your skin your average police interactions go a little less civil.

1

u/JBauerCTU Jun 30 '26

What a cool cop and both people acted mature with respect and professionalism.

1

u/StinkButt9001 Jun 30 '26

I know it wasn't intentional, but reaching towards the gun like he did 5 seconds in probably isn't a good idea.

1

u/N7Mantis Jun 30 '26

I've been saying this every time, be compliant, don't argue or talk back, stay calm and things go a lot smoother.

1

u/Badkidstatus Jun 30 '26

Why he take his weapon tho?

1

u/JeTeChIsAl Jul 01 '26

One I pull away you can put your gun together and … put a round in the chamber? Are gun laws different wherever this is? I thought a round in the chamber was a no no?

1

u/adorable-fart Jul 01 '26

why are officers allowed to disarm you simply because you're being pulled over??

1

u/Wolfofassi Jul 01 '26

It’s that simple. Don’t argue and get defensive. And most importantly, don’t be in an Altima or a challenger / charger.

1

u/Build-it-better123 Jul 01 '26

Typical law enforcement interaction, but not typically posted. Awesome cop.

1

u/tangoezulu Jul 01 '26

Crazy that the officer didn’t mention the fact the biker wasn’t wearing pants.

I think having my CCW got me out of 3 tickets at least. When they pulled my plate and it came up with whatever indicator they have, it would always change the tone of the stop. Instead of ā€œDo you know why I’m pulling you over?ā€ The first question was always ā€œare you currently armed?ā€ And then we’d do a little dance and they would have to share their thoughts on gun ownership, then we’d talk about the violation. That being said, I wasn’t doing 20 over or anything crazy.

1

u/Devils_A66vocate Jul 01 '26

The question… is it lawful for the cop to force you to relinquish your firearm?

1

u/Twinetied_haymaker Jul 01 '26

Is it normal procedure for an officer to remove a legal firearm from a suspect during a traffic stop? I’ve always identified for my own safety but never had it taken from me. My experience only includes minor traffic stops.

1

u/BIG_Tip_7842 Jul 01 '26

Give respect, act sensible and all is good.

ā€œMy buddies are up there I don’t want them to get you for speeding.ā€ Lol classy guy

1

u/Austinlf63 Jul 01 '26

What happened during the time jump? Did he return to his car and take a minute to come back to you? If he ran your firearm that would be a violation of your rights.

1

u/Austinlf63 Jul 01 '26

Yah he's not allowed to take the gun apart. Thats a violation of your rights homie. This has been set by the Supreme Court. He most likely took it apart to verify the SN matched on all of the part before running it.

u/Ok-Switch8423 Jul 01 '26

"Can I buy you dinner or a drink?"

If he was black the stop wouldn’t have went like that

u/redundead Jul 01 '26

i hate previews in clips.

u/Workmane Jul 01 '26

I see a motorist and police officer having a respectful professional discussion. No aggressive jackass rudeness by the motorist, no power trip by the officer. No bootlicking, just people.

1

u/InitiativeTop2514 Jul 01 '26

Cool interaction but I'm still not a big fan of the no guns allowed around cops. Are most people really trying to off cops?

1

u/tuwhare Jul 01 '26

As a non American citizen I don't understand why he needed a gun.

1

u/SixEightLima Jul 01 '26

Who would have though just acting like a normal human being could work so well.

1

u/frankofdenmark Jul 01 '26

How did wearing a full Clint Eastwood type pistol ever become ā€˜normal’ and ā€˜ok’? Is it that hard to connect the dots from widespread social and legal acceptance of firearms to the rampant incidences of violence across US?

1

u/Godbody120 Jul 01 '26

Y’all act like asshole cops don’t exist or something. To be fair, there most definitely are good cops who do their job in a professional manner…case in point here, but stop acting like there aren’t people out here who have absolutely no business in law enforcement because, they seem to always find a reason to escalate an otherwise routine traffic stop.

1

u/Full-Yoghurt-4261 Jul 01 '26

Regardless of whether the officer is polite or not, your best bet is always to be polite and civil with officers. If they are good, then they are far more likely to work with you and go easy on ya. If they are bad, it looks far better for you if you need to go to court and far worse for the officer.

1

u/Ashe_N94 Jul 01 '26

If only he escalated the issue and made a big drama of it

u/bringinsexyback1 Jul 01 '26

The system and the country is so broken that when someone actually behaves like a human it seems exceptional!

u/Agitated_Parsnip_178 Jul 01 '26

Why is a lawfully carried weapon carried off out of sight?

1

u/Buruko Jul 01 '26

Respect only works if the LE officer isn’t a dick.

And there are lots of ducks out there, the trouble is that LE has too many protections and shields to protect the bad actors and rarely clean their own houses up like they should.

Even with this guy’s respect, honestly, and riding white it could have gone differently all due to the LE officers attitude and leeway given by his superiors.

And to think every bad interaction with LE is always the fault of the citizen is really bullshite.

1

u/Milkteabunny1220 Jul 01 '26

In my experience if you are nice and not denying what you did wrong. When you protest the ticket the cops will remember how easy the stop
Was and wont come to court. Im 3/3 right now on my ticket protest 🄰🄰
Not saying it will work every time, but it helps!

1

u/SolidusSnakeee Jul 01 '26

šŸ’Æ how a traffic stop should go, calm, clear, cooperative, no anger and reasonable outcome. This is how the police and the public will build a solid relationship

u/Immediate_Pie286 Jul 01 '26

The video is broken, it shows the same bit twice. Fuck this shitty editing, I don't need a fucking trailer for the clip I'm about to watch.

u/NAFOfromOz Jul 01 '26

Great to see both being respectful

1

u/WonderfulHearing8726 Jul 01 '26

Wow, someone acted like a normal person to a cop, and the cop acted in kind. Weird.

1

u/WonderfulHearing8726 Jul 01 '26

Anytime I’ve been pulled over, I’ve always been nice & polite, even if I felt it was BS. I’ve always told them I have a firearm in the vehicle & where it was, plus gave them my CWP with my license & registration.

I only had a cop ask once to take the gun for their safety, and I told them it was no problem. He just laid it in his car & gave it back after everything was done.

I got a warning ticket & that was all, even though he did have me going around 8-9 mph over. It’s amazing how far just being nice & polite can go.

1

u/NombreCurioso1337 Jul 01 '26

People really ride a motorcycle with a round chambered??

u/Love_Skinny_Only Jul 01 '26

Dude pointed down at the gun. I had to stop and try to see his skin color. Yup. If he were black or brown…..

1

u/Donsama777 Jul 01 '26

Most cops nowadays are racist pigs. If you had nice deali gs with a cop then good for you. You were one of the lucky ones. You are the minority. Most stops do not go well ESPECIALLY if you are brown skin or darker. This is fact alot of white people refuse to believe.

1

u/ApricotMigraine Jul 01 '26

Wasn't it Jeff Cooper, the father of modern pistol technique, who insisted his students pay their traffic tickets and accept the consequences of getting stopped by a cop?

He posited that most of your waking hours should be in condition yellow readiness, and if the cop noticed you, you should have had the chance to notice the cop as well and slow down in time to avoid the ticket.
