Keep Being Pulled Over By Police
Discussion
Hello everybody. I found this forum by looking on the internet. I would just like to know something so far last week and other weeks I have been getting pulled over in last 3 weeks. I own/run a designer clothing business so I do a lot of motor way driving the problem is I keep getting pulled over not even for speeding. The police keep pulling me over and asking to see all my details and have a really bad attitude with me. I ask them why they pulled me over I get same response because you look to young to drive that me being 25. I have just had a new personalized number plate along lines of J1 ( not exact but 2 digits.) Its only ever since I have had these new plates put on I keep getting pulled over. I would like to know has anybody else came across this sort of abuse. ?, also what can I do to stop it as its getting really annoying now
Kind Regards

Hello. Well the Dvla approved the number plate. To as far as my knowledge its standard United kingdom font number plate same as your Ordinary number plate.It has no silly fonts etc
DVLA don't "approve" number plates. They issue the mark.I suspect if they were illegal in terms of size, font or spacing, you'd have been told by now.
I got pulled over twice in my 330d at 18, was wearing my school tie in both cases.
They said something along the lines of just a random check, had a quick look at my tyres and tie. Explained I went to Queen Elizabeth , and off I went.
Second time same happened, explained I was pulled over a month ago for a random check, officer said I went out of the roundabout a bit sideways, explained to him politely that I didn't feel anything, traction light didn't alert me of anything losing control. Off I went.
Didn't get pulled over for the remaining part of 6th form there. And I stopped wearing my tie.
Are you doing anything to draw attention to yourself, aggresive acceleration? etc etc .
Whilst I believe that they do pull over if someone looks a tad young, I think it's a bit far fetched for it to be happening to you at 25 in a turbo especially on the motorway. Do you look like a bit of a pikey or anything? Tattos? Anything out of the ordinary? Dress a bit gayish or something?

Hello. I always wear suits. I dont think so. I dont see why they have bad attitude with me. ?
Is this you?
Whats your driving style like?
What about your hair or something like that?
Police aren't going to pull you over purely on you looking young, unless you quite literally look like a 10 year old kid then they really aren't.
You must be doing something to draw attention to yourself.

I hope not. LOL!!
Problem is my girlfreind drives it forever in day and dont get pulled just me.? She got caught in my car by undercover copper on motorway long time ago doing 91 mph. she smiled at copper and went on her way from what she told me. Do police hate young guys in nice cars but ladys get away with it.?

No your girlfriend didn't tell you the whole story. Everytime you drive the turbo, thats where the coppers bare sweaty butt cheeks were!

I had a similar issue with the Police back in OZ!
Had an Evo when I was 20, nothing out of the ordinary in that, however got pulled or followed by them nearly every time. Got used to it in the end (sort of)... Most of the time they just wanted a look at the car. It was quite rare in those days (one of only a few in the city I lived). You'll have to sadly just deal with it. Take it on the chin and be friendly even where there not. They may think you've 'borrowed' dads car or stolen it, waiting to get a rise out of you to book you for something petty!
If you've done nothing wrong then you've nothing to worry about.
Oh and it's part of the reason I sold my Evo for something more discrete. Couldn't have any 'fun' due to the fear of them watching!

keep a record for 2 months of dates times and police officers' involved id numbers, take them to the station and report harrassment, if it happens again after that take the police to court for harrassment and impeeding you from carrying out the duties of your business, payouts in the past have been very generous
