Ever been pulled over by a cop for a dumb reason (example: loud music), then repeatedly questioned and attempted to be tricked into a lie with incriminating statements, pulled over for a full 20-30 minutes, before finally being let go--with no other charges the cop tried to lure you into other than the original one that could have been given and ticketed in five minutes? It happened to me.
Too bad my friend and I both had our seatbelts on, I obeyed all traffic laws, had all working lights and signals, and did not fall for his attempts to catch me in some incriminating statement which he attempted to force out for a good 25 minutes or so. Poor guy, only got to give the original loud music ticket he originally pulled me over for, and wasted about 25 minutes on me that he could have actually been spending pulling people over who were actually doing something wrong that is actually worthy of an arrest or something. Like people disobeying traffic laws, driving wrecklessly, or something... you know... actually potentially harmful to other drivers on the road.
Ah well.. he probably felt that it was some sort of minor accomplishment, because his notes mentioned the name of the band that I was listening to and that there was some cussing, which the judge brought up in the court room and actually started laughing and joking about.
