What's the ballsiest thing you've done in front of a police officer? -

[DDBCAE CBAADCBE]

I believe the title is pretty self explanatory so I'll go ahead and start us off.

So when I was a dumb teenager I played a ton of airsoft and my friends and I particularly loved playing at night. Well, long story short the cops get called one night when we were using an abandoned upscale house and yard down the street for our game. A female cop steps out of the car with her gun drawn and tells me to drop my weapon at which point I instead just shoot my friend to show her it's fake and then drop it. Thank God I'm white.

Get pulled over with an inspection sticker that was expired for a year and a half. He didn't care about anyway.

I stole a traffic cone while I was drunk. I was at university back then though so that sort of thing happened on a nightly basis.

I climbed into a lamppost. And then when he asked me to come down I started to drool and speak gibberish instead. He wasn't amused, but he also couldn't charge me with anything. But boy, did he want to. His colleagues just laughed. At him and me.

Hit one. Military police. Charged for it. Now every time I get the (normal) cops called on me, they come in en masse and with shitty attitudes and that stupid fucking beanbag shotgun up front.

You became someone's own 'Oddest shit you've seen' story at the least. Though if you kept at it too long they could just claim you were a threat to yourself and take you in. Following a tasing or a bit of pepper spray, of course.

Loicenseless driving. In my defense I was practicing in an old road and had a relative's help so figured the chances of crashing were pretty low. Cops pulled us over and gave us a scare but family talked our way out of it.

I was drinking in a popular car park after a car cruise with a large crowd of fellow car heads when two cop cars pulled up and started asking people to pop their bonnets to check for illegal mods . One of the cops was a cute little blonde girl and in my drunken stupidity I started asking if I could pop her bonnet and inspect her engine for modifications, in front of her male colleagues none the less.
She laughed and was nice about me being an idiot so I asked her out but she said no.

That reminds me of some people I used to work with at a particular parts store that pretty openly advertised illegal car shows/street races. Would have cops come in and literally say and do nothing about it despite clearly seeing our fliers.

There were Japanese tourists observing the whole thing, talking in Japanese about it. For a moment I broke out of the fool act, looked at one of them seriously and said: "Nihongo ga wakarimas!"

That means "I understand Japanese", which is about the extend of my japanese, but they didn't know that and I knew my pronunciation of that one sentence was flawless enough to bluff them. Most of them laughed, one woman looked shocked.

I do this to Hispanics all the time.

Catched a pokemon.
Still safer to do it in front of cop instead of pope.

My dad told a policeman who had come to give me a caution that he was going to hunt down my ex (who had called the police on me) and bury him in the woods, the policeman just laughed.

A guy I know was rolling a joint in the park and the police came and asked him was he rolling, he said yes, the police said oh right okay then, have fun and walked off.

Driving without a license plate.. my boring life lol

 

[Pinot Pierrot]

There was a period of several months where I had been driving without renewing my drivers license and didn't tell it to anyone. Which is why I felt a chill in my stomach when I received a call at 1:00AM from my bro, begging me to pick him and a friend up because they were being held at a police station under suspicion of DUI, a couple hours away from home. I was obviously very hesitant to just march right up to the authorities without a valid license to my name. My brother sounded so upset and desperate though, and I knew what would happen if he asked Dad instead, so I took the gamble.

Naturally, the cops at the station asked me for a drivers license as part of the identification process. I was forced to admit in front of an officer that I had been driving all the way here without a working one. He gave me an utmost disapproving look, but somehow didn't charge me (maybe he had to catch me in the act, or maybe he just wanted to cut three kids some slack after they had a long night). He did sternly tell me I can't be the one driving them home, and that we'd have to wait until my brother or the friend have walked off their inebriation. I thanked him, told him we're just going to eat some breakfast first, and we all left.

I really was ready to walk to a nearby McDonalds and have some early morning breakfast there, but the other two told me to just get in the car and wait 5 min. before driving out of the station parking lot.

Asked the officer attending to me after a violent carjacking if there was anything I could do to help. My face was still pissing blood from a pistolwhipping and I was fourteen. I did actually manage to help later by being the only one able to identify one of the attackers, but I still wonder what I was thinking. Shock, I guess.

 

[MediocreMilt]

One time this asshole cop knocked a can out of the trash in front of me. He was all gruff like: "PICK UP THIS CAN".

So I picked up the can. Then he tried to get me to put it in the trash for him, but I'm thinking, fuck that. So I throw it at his head.

He comes at me and beats me a couple times with his stun stick. My vision went all white for a second, but I held my feet so he kind of gave up and walked away after that.
