Misdemeanor Reckless Driving.

The reason for the stop was a tight turn in a parking lot caused my tire to squeal. He trashed the inside of my truck, then magically decided he was no longer placing me under arrest and let me go. On the falsified report, he stated that I passed within 6' of a structure thus threatening the occupants. The problem was at 11 at night everything was closed and in order to pass within 6' of that building I would have to be on the opposite side of the 30' wide road, thread between palm trees in a 5-6' wide planter, and drive on a 5' sidewalk.

Sadly, I was an idiot kid with no money to press the issue after getting the misdemeanor dismissed.

I have. Cop asked if he could search my truck during a traffic stop. I was arrested so the truck would be "unattended" thus could be towed and he could "inventory" it.

"I would prefer you didn't."
"Why?"
"Strictly on principle. I don't agree with that and not a fan of people digging through my stuff."
"Sir, I'm going to have you step out of the car and place your hands behind you back..."
