I'm not sure if this statement was made by a LEO in a previous post
"To bad for him I was curious"
Scares the heck out of me.....We are on a VERY slippery slope. But some will now come to defend this action because they simply don't know any better.
Yes, I was curious and curious my entire career.
I saw smoke coming out from the back of a truck, and was curious. His brake line was cut and dripping on his brake rotor. (PC-Defective vehicle)
I witnessed a vehicle repeatedly driving on the shoulder and was curious. He was DUI. (PC=Driving on a shoulder/Failing to maintain a single lane of travel)
I witnessed a vehicle failing to stop for a stop sign. (PC=Disregard of a traffic control device) Contacting the female driver, I was standing next to her driver's door when she opened her purse and then clutch purse, pulling out her driver's license, handing it to me. I saw something in her clutch purse and asked for that and then the next one, and the next one, until I had 6 driver's licenses in my hand, all with her picture on them, but all with different names. She had systematically collected friend's, and roommates driver's licenses, placed them in the laundry until the picture was illegible (Back in the day when DLs were just a plastic sheet) and went to the DL Bureau and got a new one with her picture printed on it/them. (PC=Fraudulent Use of a Government Document).
Yep, LEOs are a curious bunch, be afraid if you must. Best chance to avoid them would be just to stay home and don’t answer the door, when they come a knockin.
As for vehicle Registration, most LEOs have no interest in stopping you for a registration verification.
