For you fellow LEO's, has this ever happened to you??
This morning I was traveling on the Garden State Parkway in NJ in my personal vehicle. I had a guy in a Mercedes riding my ***, so just as I moved over for him. There was a car in the left lane still so he moved into the same lane with me, and then proceeded to PASS me on the shoulder at a very high rate of speed.
For a split second, I totally forgot I was in my personal vehicle and thought I was in a patrol car. I got into a mode as if I were going to perfrom a traffic stop, then i realized I wasn't in a patrol car....it was a very strange and frustrating feeling, I really wanted to pull this jerkoff over for driving like he did.
Have any of you ever felt this sensation?
very weird!!

The closest I've ever got to something like that was reaching up to the steering column for the shifter in my POV.
Never felt like I was in a patrol car while in my POV...Be advised, I'm mean nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could put a round through a fleas *** at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in.

No, that never happened to me. I just wished at that moment I was in my patrol vehicle. I would have gotten his tag number and mailed him a ticket though.

It's almost even worse for me. Since I'm an Asst. Chief at a rescue squad, I have emergency equipment in the vehicle. I really want to kick on the strobes, wig wags and siren and nail their ***, but I bite my lip and keep driving. If it's something real bad (immediate risk to safety), I'll call on the phone for local PD and keep following at a safe distance. ;)

Funny thing was I tried to get the Tag to call it in, but he took off so fast i couldn't, and i was getting off the exit at the time too.
sorry, forgot to add that to the last post....In god we trust, all others we run NCIC.

Yep, sometimes I start riding their tails to read the tag and then realize that the effort isnt worth it, but keep in mind I am still a rook.

I have reached for the (non-existant) overhead light switch in my POV.

Once or twice on the Palisades Parkway when I first started. I now just try to grab the tag and call NYSP or the PIP Police.

I constantly reach for the radar button in my POV.

I have reached for the radio mic, and the radar controller in my POV. Wife is like, "What are you grabbing at?" :D

I've reached up to hold onto the spot light that wasn't there.

That's what I do the most. Mostly I get mad, wondering why I only see the stupid people in my POV. Originally Posted by tpd_six
