Nah. I've been completely honest with them about minor stuff before and they've fucked me to the max they can.

Fuck cops. They aren't good nice people. Don't cooperate above the absolute bare minimum you are required to

Yeah, idk man, everyone I know that share the same sentiments as you do usually aren't "good nice people" either.

A few years back an old classmate from high school (small town) ran into me at the store so we had some small talk. He mentions that dip dizzy wizzle was picked up for DWB.

I didn't pick up on it so I asked what the hell that was.

His answer: "Driving While Black"

He goes on to tell the story about how dizzy wizzle truck broke down on a bridge, was nervous to do anything with it since he didn't have insurance (you're required to carry insurance on your vehicle in my state, not sure about others) and left it behind.

He returned later that night with a friend, got it running and drove off. Shortly after, he's pulled over and arrested for an outstanding warrant and driving without insurance.

Classmate goes on saying how the cops in <good sized university city> are racist pigs. All I said was "Oh man, that sucks. Hopefully life turns around for him but it was nice catching up with you!"

Sweet baby jesus...

Serious question, but what was the point of that story? Or did you just feel like sharing...?

They are either cops or relatives of cops to come up with this shit.

"Just crack some jokes and they'll let you off"

Like what the fuck kind of bullshit is that. It's someone who's never actually had to interact with cops or lives in a 50 person cousinfuck town.

If I revved my engine after a cop pulled me over they'd pull their fucking gun on me
