PRD2BDF Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I have not had any problems with cops here. I did get pulled over here yes but that was because I was going 77 in a 60, ain't going to argue with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendanB Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Haven't dealt with state troopers yet, but the 1 Delaware Sheriff I dealt with was pretty easygoing and let me off with a warning, same with a Dublin cop; OSHP are just EVERYWHERE around Columbus, worse up North Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bastard Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 The only agency in Ohio I have yet to have them let me off is OSHP. There is a reason I have heard them lovingly referred to as state dicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Never had a prob and had many let me go on my way in the past. I won't disagree that some are complete cocks abusing power but it's not the norm from what I've experienced. If you want revenge come to Krav. As my buddy says there, "Where else do you get to attack a state trooper and youth pastor and congradulated for a job well done?" The trooper at our gym is nice as all get out and regularly shares stories from the road both good and bad. He's a laid back guy though. Not out to get anyone. I also know this isn't widespread attitude for troopers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn89 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I had a OSHP officer let me off with a warning for having a headlight out improper left turn loud exhaust failure to register no insurance card blah blah blah lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBQdDude Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 New Rome :megusta: Over all though the last four times pulled over resulted in one ticket. I like my batting average lol. Even the ticket got the points dropped and fine lowered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Karacho1647545492 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Ohio: the cold weather state where we lease brand new expensive as fuck Harley Davidsons for our police force every couple years, then attach useless sidecars in an attempt to make them seem useful in the winter.

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I've lived and traveled all over the US. Worst f'n traffic force. You'll commonly see 3 cars from 3 different departments (local, state and highway) one right after the other all ticketing/waiting for speeders, etc. On top of that, I've found the speed limits on average to be 5-10mph slower here than other states in comparative areas. Plenty of speed traps, as well... I feel like an antelope at night picking my way through the lion's territory as those around me are picked off.

Forrest Gump 9 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Ohio is no joke when it come to traffic cops. Just look at the truckers. They are hauling 75+ mph in the surrounding states, but as soon as they cross over to Ohio, cruise control on the speed limit. Oh yeah, I'm so glad New Rome is history.

enter Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I disagree. I got clocked at 110mph in my evo on 90e in cleveland by a younger state trooper with my temp tag saying E85 FTW who let me go! Still have the warning from him lmao.

That's because in EVERY state surrounding Ohio, the speed limit is 70. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truckin Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 All the times I've ever been pulled over or given tickets. Not a single one was from OSHP, and yes i've been pulled over by them 3 times in my driving career, each time i was 100% sure i was getting at ticket.

acklac7 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I'd probably put "Outside of Seattle" above Ohio to be honest. Cops out there (Wild West) are psycho. Like no shit I saw an unmarked beat-to-fuck '97 Explorer clocking people, scandalous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Gump 9 Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I'm suprise Honolulu is not on the list. The cops over there will pull you over for doing 2mph over the limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I will say, I've been let off 99% of the time I've been pulled over. That, and at least, we don't have to worry about plain closed cars, not looking over your should at every taurus or mustang... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
