Then there are those who think that stopping someone just to point out that one defective bulb on a license plate is a bit silly and is more often than not used to indeed fish for other "legitimate issues". The law the legislature passed ten years or so ago that outlawed license plate frames was such a law and was vetoed because it would have served such a purpose.A-R wrote:Not fishing. There was a legitimate issue (light burned out) and the officer pulled over the car to inform the operator of the issue. As OP said, no harm no foul.jmra wrote:I sure do wish I could get paid for fishing.
But then, these scofflaws that drive around with burned out bulbs are a dangerous lot.
Cops use the excuse often to stop someone for not using a turn signal. I see LEO do it all of the time. Can I make a citizen's arrest next time?
