dstrangio & wavewolf, I can't believe you two got detained like that! What'd they end up saying to you once they realized that you weren't intoxicated?!
I was driving on a Saturday night with a friend who was yelling at some other car on the main strip of a town where nothing really happens. We got pulled over into a parking lot and questioned. It ended up being 3 police cars at the end of the whole thing and my friend didn't get a breathalyzer at all
Once I was asked to step out of the car and walked with one of the older officers away from my friend (I guess so we could be questioned separately in case our stories didn't match), another younger cop came running up and asked the older cop if I was drunk and laughed. The younger cop didn't even acknowledge me. After that I got the breathalyzer test and then let go telling the both of us to go home.
wavewolf, I wish there was some sort of training for police to ask some logical questions when they see certain things. You had gear and placards! Maybe it's just my QE mind always over thinking why would a person do xyz and not abc

This is the problem isnt it and this is when things can and have gone wrong. Why are these guys ( meaning officers) not stopping and thinking? Acting on impulse is having serious implications in general!
