If Stopped by a State Trooper on the Highway...?
Find answers to your legal question.





If Stopped by a State Trooper on the Highway...?

should you address the officer as, "Dude?"


    




Yo it's Me
If you are trying to piss him off, try "Cornholio". That will get an unambigious response that "Dude" might not.


CGIV76
Yes of course.
Be sure to press hard when you sign the ticket, there's 3 copies.


INSOMNIAC
Not if its a female officer.

...especially if you are waving the smoke from the joint you just swallowed...

I also like the idea of asking the trooper- "Can I wear your hat?"


Kent N
No...address him as Officer.


Kevy
Yeah, but as CGIV76 said, Press hard.

Most officers will give you the same respect you give them. Politeness and honesty can go a long way with a police officer. How do you expect police to respect people who do not respect them?

Only if you want to guarantee a ticket!

No You Should Address Him/Her As Trooper.

na its not worth it... call the officer sir or mam. that usually gives them the first impression that you have a good backround.


Spoken Majority
I would then write you for everything I could find wrong.


NONAME
Only if you want a 100% chance of getting a ticket. May be he was only going to give you a warning but you pissed him off.

No, address him/her politely, or you are guaranteed a ticket if you call him/her that.

Thanks for the two points.


BrutalBaby
It beats being called...well, what some other people might call a Trooper. I see nothing offensive about it. (In Oregon, the Trooper is most likely going to write you a ticket regardless of what you call him.) Drive safe! ;0)
