    Most of the female VA cops are pretty gorgeous. I once got rear ended because the guy behind me was busy checking out a Fairfax cop. True story!

      It's hard not to crush on some of them. Last year some guys became fans of Deputy Aubrey Raymond of the Richland County Sheriff's Dept. when she was on a few episodes of COPS. She ended up catching a lot of the bad guys instead of the male cops that the camera crews were riding with. I was impressed. Example: /watch?v=iX_glcjrGL4 See at 1:15

    If you don't like being stopped by the Cops, fine. But try to look at that same stop from their perspective. Are you someone just coming home from work or are you a Felon out on parole who just committed an armed robbery and vows to never be taken alive. The point is, on that initial contact they don't know.
    YOUR safety is up to YOU during a traffic stop, so keep your hands in plain sight, talk in a reasonable and respectful manner, even if you're mad about the stop or the ticket you may receive. Most importantly, show from the get go, your a willing to comply with the stop and are NOT a threat.
    If you still think Cops are out to hassle you, then by all means file a compliant with the department, sue them if it's something really bad, but don't think for one second that somehow you're going to "win" that argument on the street while being pulled over. It's an odds on favorite that whatever trouble you may be in, will just be rapidly compounded.

    • @christopherheavren2101

      touching the back of the car is all about putting evidence that you were there

    • @THATCrazyTexan49
      @THATCrazyTexan49 8 лет назад +12

      This is to secure proof that the officer did approached the vehicle. In case the officer finds himself in a dangerous situation while pulling over the subject vehicle, fingerprint evidence would prove that he was present in the scene and that evidence will lead investigators to the vehicle and to the owner there of.

  • @RoguePlus1
    @RoguePlus1 7 лет назад +2

    forgot to add the part on why the they touch the taillights. When the officer touches the back of a car its to leave there finger prints on the vehicle just in case something happens to the officer. Then they can tie that car back to the officer.

  • @theawesomedude1029
    @theawesomedude1029 7 лет назад

    when you are doing a passenger side traffic stop, it's better if you walk behind your car instead of in front of your car to get to the passenger side. This prevents you from getting injured or killed in a situation where someone rear ends your patrol car.

  • @dylanbrown136
    @dylanbrown136 8 лет назад +3

    Never cross in between your police cruiser, and the subjects vehicle. If you wish to approach the passenger side, always go around your cruiser because if you cross between the two vehicle's you can be crushed or pinned between the two. Not a good way to teach your officers. That's traffic stop 101. God bless and stay safe.

    • @unr3alGaming
      @unr3alGaming 8 лет назад

      Someone mentioned that earlier. I agree with the principle of it, but turning your back to the driver isn't a great idea either. Going around the cruiser is better at night since they'll be blinded by the spot light and you won't break the beams of your headlights by walking around the back. During the day, if the distance between the two cars is good, I don't think that going around the back is any better while its light out and you can't blind the driver like you can at night. Personal preference, I suppose. Same with how to park your cruiser.

    • @tobycatich4239
      @tobycatich4239 7 лет назад

      unr3al Gaming even during the day it is okay because usually, the car will remain as cover and you can always turn your head to looks t the vehicle.

    its a damn shame whenever a cop pulls somebody over and the person has to keep their hands on the steering wheel and not move like they're a criminal. things are bad.

    • @EddieLeal
      @EddieLeal 7 лет назад +16

      I can see how this may appear bad to you. However you have to consider/see things from a safety standpoint. The officer does not know who they are pulling over so they have to take measures to ensure the safety of both the officer and the people in the vehicle. I'm sure you have seen videos where the driver goes to reach for something and it turns out to be a weapon. While not everyone driving is a bad guy, not everyone out on the road is a decent citizen either. So until cops learn how to read minds I am afraid this is the only way to ensure everyone involved drives away with the same amount of holes in their body that they started out with. :) Take care and have a pleasant day.

    Honestly, I get scared, when ever I drive by a FC-Police because they are "Super Ruthless". But, with PW-Police, they are so very friendly and all my experience with them have been pleasant. I smile and wave at PW-Police sometimes, if I know them. Absolutely 0% issues, in Prince William County. But FairFax County could use some improvements. Keeping in mind, this feedback all coming from a law biding citizen, me. Please take my warning into account.

    • @unr3alGaming
      @unr3alGaming 8 лет назад

      Depends on the circumstance. You shouldn't turn your back to the car either to walk around your cruiser. If you do a passenger side approach and the distance between the cars is good, I'd say you could go in front during the day time, walk around the back at night so you don't break the beams of your headlights and give away your position.

      @AnInnocentLittleBoy 8 лет назад +1

      +Mike Murphy Some police wear body armor under their uniform shirt because it looks more official/outgoing and generally less intimidating. Plus the bad guys can't see their vest so it could potentially save their life by hiding it from view.

    First thing I noticed is when the officer says "I have to be concerned about their safety." Wrong! Police are never responsible for our safety. There are many videos on u-tube filmed by motorists stopped by police. Depending on the moods of both the police and motorists, things do not always go smoothly.

      +jeff darnell It's so if anything happens their finger prints are on the vehicle. Say they got kidnapped by the person in the car and later on the police find a car matching the description they can check it for the finger prints of the missing officer, that sort of thing. :)

    Oh no, not FairFax County Cops. They are so mean, like seriously. I'm not playing when I say that. This police force has a reputation, haha. Now in my city, Prince William County, the cops are SO nice. I love all them and I'm sure our citizens do as well. FC-Police could sure learn from PW-Police. I understand they have a job to do, but the main thing is "wager in common sense" when performing traffic stops. Like for example, an officer sees (x3) cars are driving super fast going 20-over the speed limit, but officer instead pulls over a car with illegal tint (whom was going the speed limit.) Granted everyone was breaking the law speeding, tint, etc. But, which crime was more dangerous & critical, during that moment. Well, this scenario is actually a true story regarding FC-Police, haha. Now, with PW-Police, they actually use their heads in the field. Thank God I live in Woodbridge, VA!! I love my city. Not many people like FC-Police, if you ask around. This is a true and honest feedback from me. Trust me.
