i got rear ended by a cop haha - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

xka24detx · 04-17-2006, 06:01 PM

well not an accident, just a tap, i come to a stop light, and pop into neutral and let my foot off the brake and i guess he thought it was go, so i feel the car move forward and catch the brakes before i hit the guy in front of me, and i look in my mirror and his car is like bouncing from i guess him catching his brakes, so as we start going, he pulls next to me and bleeps his siren for a second and yells into his like incar megaphone thing and says "sorry about that" and now my rear bumper has a clean mark where he rubbed the dust off it

**ThatGuy** · 04-17-2006, 06:03 PM

Hahahaha. Nice of him to appologize.

Andrew Bohan · 04-17-2006, 06:05 PM

wow i would so report that. way for him to flee the scene of an accident...

**ThatGuy** · 04-17-2006, 06:07 PM

Well since neither of them pulled over, it's both of their faults for "Leaving the scene..". I doubt it would hold up in court.

mRclARK1 · 04-17-2006, 06:10 PM

At least there's no damage right?

RiversideS13 · 04-17-2006, 06:26 PM

lol maybe he was running your plated and did not pay attention to your movement

L1ama · 04-17-2006, 06:43 PM

I never knew cops weren't perfect, damn.

i wasnt complaining, just sharing a story that i found kinda funny

Dousan_PG · 04-17-2006, 08:00 PM

cool story
good thing u got a stock rear bumper
its stupid ot leave it in neutral and take your foot of the brake, unless you like getting rear ended.

P4rD0nM3 · 04-17-2006, 08:07 PM

So you guys always step on the brake? I always put it in neautral and ebrake it...

Dousan_PG · 04-17-2006, 08:09 PM

i always do
the brake light is to let other see you are stopped
if ur off, sure you might not be moving but a bad driver wont be paying attention to that, or like that officer, wont realize it. its subconsious. when you see lit up brake lights you know they are stopped/slowing down. makes you pay more attention

complaint may have been the wrong word... cop thread that doesnt contain hate and anger = good.

lucky7 · 04-17-2006, 08:47 PM

i always sit at a light in neutral if i can. i hate keeping my foot on the brake.

blackflag_Rms13 · 04-17-2006, 11:27 PM

All cops are douchebags and can't do their jobs..

Nah just playin'. It's nice that the cop apologized, because in my area the bad stereotype of cops would prevail and probably end in me/you getting a ticket.

Nuetral+Ebrake is preferred for me but usually I sit on the brake, because it's not too much of an inconvience.

drift freaq · 04-17-2006, 11:47 PM

I like how he apologized over the loudspeaker. hahahhahha

Ricks15 · 04-17-2006, 11:59 PM

File a lawsuit against the cop, who knows you might get a few bucks for what happened.

L1ama · 04-18-2006, 12:13 AM

In New York City, it might be just me, but so far every single cop I talked to were really nice, but there was this once he was staring at me when I was passing him, he pulled someone over, looking at me, when I see a cop I always say whats up, or talk about like driving laws and crap, they always help me, but I don't like the ones that chase me for no reason on foot that is, they are fucking fast, damn.

ranisron · 04-18-2006, 12:28 AM

I have no problems with city cops, however the University cops (IUPD) tend get over-reacted to a lot of things...

nice story...

Never know when him NOT reporting it can come in handy for him. That cop might just help him out one day...

007jpang · 04-18-2006, 01:13 AM

you should of got the cops number ... so he could get help you out in the future... since you did not care much about the hit

EchoOfSilence · 04-18-2006, 01:22 AM

hahahhahaa i just imagined the scene

*smack*
-*bllooOOOOPP*- "Sorry about that *static**click*"

good shit nothing really happened.
Anyway, you're supposed to stay on the brake for this same reason.

BoNyG515 · 04-18-2006, 01:53 AM

you should of made him pull over and be like. "yeah ur sorry, but imma need dat policy number" haha good sharing your story

*NemeGuero* · 04-18-2006, 03:13 AM

He should get a ticket.

Rkesh88 · 04-18-2006, 05:09 AM

The world would be a much better place if it wasn't full of a bunch of people out for "a few bucks"

ranisron · 04-18-2006, 08:03 AM

I like using the eBrakes + in Neutral... just in case people would "tap" my rear end

EchoOfSilence · 04-18-2006, 11:18 AM

it's not that hard to just hold down a pedal, guys. You guys can get hit; I can't afford that happening.

Theres no damage done, no injuries, the case will just be thrown out, and you'll be left with the court fees. Plus you just might piss off that cop.
