> > Good luck proving the officer did not have "reasonable and probable > grounds". I think you watch too much TV...unless you are a known criminal you shouldn't have anything to worry about. I'm quite confident that if I ever had to go to court and challenge a police officer that my word would suffice. If you are a convicted criminal or otherwise shady character then you probably wouldn't make it through court. Contrary to popular belief, cops aren't out to harass people in general. I've been pulled over before, I got one ticket and one warning. I didn't get pissed, I was clearly in the wrong both times....I've been pulled over at road blocks several times...no problems, even had an expired safety sticker once...4 days expired...politely told me to get it taken care of. If you are driving a motor vehicle you can be pulled over at any time at the discretion of a peace officer so that they can verify your liscense / registration / insurance and safety...no excuse necessary !
