I can handle the walmart question... I had a bunch of "locals" tell me they had to get through yesterday... Not if you don't want a helo landing on your car you don't... "But I'M A LOCAL!!!" Your about to be a local smashed by the semi screaming down the highway!

Someone comes up and asks you a question while you are in the middle of handcuffing a suspect.

When I first started the job, I was riding with an old timer who would say,
"I just love this town, everyone is so friendly, look at that guy waving at the police", as he kept on driving.

I hate it when...

Your code 3s are on blocking the road, SWAT trucks behind you and police airship overhead, and someone walks around your cones/flares/"ROAD CLOSED" signs to ask A) is the road closed, and when told yes, B) says I have to let them through because its "the only way they know home"

When the driver throws a cigarette butt out of the window, and it hits my hood.

That sounds more like fun to me.

You: Did he just try to assault me with that cigarette?
Partner: Looked like it to me, Felony Car stop?

When you set up a crime scene with tape, and people think the 1/2 foot section not covered by the tape is just find to walk through.

This thread is awesome! I have experienced the same things you guys have!

People asking me if the road is closed? "Yes...that is why I have a marked police car with full rotators on in the middle of/blocking the road."

That sounds more like fun to me.

One of my favorite tickets to write. God bless Paul Buzzo.

One of my favorites, is when I stop people for speeding in chain control and/or driving without chains, cite them, have them put chains on... Only to have them ask if they can now drive 55mph because they put their chains on...
