Who does a policeman stop if 2 or 3 cars are all speeding together...?

CGIV76

Most likely, all three.

The one with darkest skin.

Different possible outcomes.

Scenario I:

I have seen a vertical line of two cars going 20 miles over the speed limit who were pulled over by a lone police officer , who hand signaled from the front of the first car. When the second car tried to escape, he pursued the second car and then ticketed him for failure to yield and speeding. He let the first car go.

Scenario II: Vertical Line: Two biker officers approach the speeding traffic. Those who fail to yield are chased down by the second officer. The first officer will ticket those who yield.

Scenario III: Horizontal line, one police officer on a bike. The officer will pull over the person speeding on the rightmost lane, as it is implied that the rightmost is the 'slow traffic lane'.

Scenario IV: Vertical, two cars, one police officer. Will pull over the first car of the two line. The second car will escape, and speed to avoid his license plate be written down by officer. Officer will pull over first car, then radio to second police officer 1/2 a mile away, with description of the 2nd car. Officer 2 will wait with radar gun. Officer 2 will pull over second car. Officer 1 will rendezvous with officer 2, and ticket Car 2 for failure to yield.

Scenario V : Lazy officer. Officer will simply pull over first car.

remember me?

The last one in the line, always seems that way.

The one who exhibits the likelihood of more violations.

Tinted windows, punk gadgets, body mods, teen driver, 20' rims, anything that says to the cop...."Oh, this guys definitely got something illegal in that car"

Once on the NJ turnpike, I saw an officer stop 3 cars at the same time.

This is what I think he would do: he would stop the 1st car, tell him or her to remain where they are (don't drive off), stop the 2nd car and do the same, then stop the third. Then he would go back to the 1st car and issue a ticket and so on until finished. Not too sure about that though.

I don't know, but I have 2 cars, I very nice black BMW and a Minivan. Despite the same driving style and speed, I have never been stopped in the Minivan.

They usually try to get the one that's speeding the most, the flashiest car, or the easiest to catch. Gotta pick your battles!!

travis ray

the car that stands out the most like bright red or a sportscar or the car closest to him.

It's like fishing. The cop throws a hook in and pulls one out of the river. Some fish always get away but they can only catch so many

Rebecca

the slowest one

Me, myself and I

The one that is a probationary driver or who is the most reckless, he also will take note of the other drivers number plates and report them while other cops drive to the scene.

kys

Usually the one he can catch. He also has the right and a way to get all of them......one at a time.
In other words. He can stop one and make them stay there, then proceed to the others. If any of them take flight after being told to stay put.......they are in bigger trouble than just a speeding ticket.

Mongol

jebus919

streetsofkerala

The car with the most bling. All cops are out to get the measely kids =( =( =(

Combatcop

All three!

I will pass the ones in the back and get the lead vehicle. As I pass the vehicles I run the plate and get a look at the driver. Then I will either visit the trailing vehicles at home or send you a present in the mail.
