Today, I got 20% tints on my car. As I'm driving home, a cop pulls me over. I didn't want to ruin my new tint by opening my window, so I opened my door as the cop approached. He then pulled out his gun and yelled "GET ON THE FUCKING GROUND!" before I could explain. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got pulled over by a cop. Since my window wasn't working, I opened the door, causing him to run towards me with a drawn gun. He then had a go at me with his night stick. After realizing my window was broken, he laughed and let me off with a warning. FML
Today, I got pulled over heading home from college. My car was full of my stuff from moving out, and I couldn't reach the glove box. I told the cop this, and asked if he wanted me to go around to the passenger side to get my paperwork. He agreed. When I got out of the car, he pepper sprayed me. FML
Today, I went to the police station to find out if the tint on my new car's windshield was too dark. The officer took one look, told me that windshield tints are illegal in California, and ticketed me. So much for being honest. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a cop. He asked for my license and registration, so I reached for my center console. I was then greeted with a gun to my ear because my coffee cup supposedly looked like a gun. I stepped out of my car to apologize, and I was hit with a big stick. FML
Today, I got pulled over for speeding. I started fixing my hair and unbuttoning a couple of buttons on my shirt, hoping the policeman would let me off with a warning. When he got to the car, he rolled his eyes and muttered something under his breath. I saw him walk back to the cop car gagging. FML
Today, my friend was pulled over and told to get out of the car. The officer motioned for me to get out of the car too so I reached behind me to get my shoes. He then pointed his gun at my face and frantically asked my friend if I had a gun. My friend calmly replied, "No, but shoot him anyway." FML
Today, I pulled up to a red light. My ex was in the next car, and my car's windows are so tinted that you can't see through them, so I flipped him off. I was driving my mom's car. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a motorcycle cop for speeding in a 25 MPH zone. As the cop was walking towards my car, I flicked my cigarette butt out of my window. So, the cop did me the pleasure of writing me two tickets instead of one. FML
Today, I was driving home. I desperately needed the bathroom, so I was speeding a little bit. A cop pulled me over and gave me hell. He said he'd heard my story a hundred times and didn't believe me. I couldn't hold it and ended up marinating in my own piss while he ran my plates. FML
Today, while driving I saw a police car riding along next to me. Thinking about the news recently, I decided to give him a quick thumbs up and a smile to lighten up his day. He looks back, smiles, flips on his siren, and pulls me over for not paying attention to the road. FML

Was this in Los Angeles? Here in good ol' Manhattan, KS, I was tired at 1:37 in the morning one night after grocery shopping, and I rolled a stop sign and etc. home and the police stopped me at my parking spot at my apartment. I was getting out because I was already home, and the cop got out fast and yelled, "STAY IN THE VEHICLE!" That ended well at least. I didn't even get a warning. I told him I just needed to get to bed and showed him I was coming home from Wal-Mart. He said sternly, "Well, behave yourself!" and went off.

I dont think the OP deserved this at all, only thing is I don't live in America (assuming that's were the OP is from) so I dont know how american cops react to situations. Cause here in Aus you could probably open your door, slowly, without having a gun pointed at you. Now the facts> 1) Any good tint shop will tell you not to wind down your newly tinted windows for at least a couple of days, that is a cold hard fact. 2) 20% tint, although dark, is not extremely dark and it is certainly not a 'limo tint'. Limo tints are around 3-4% so while 20% is dark you could probably still see in and see the driver. 3) From what I read the Op never got out of the car, will a little bit stupid he still did the right thing. He opened the door, maybe a crack who knows, so he could speak to the officer. 4) Do american officers really start screaming like that if you open your door or make a sudden move? I'd be interested to know as the aus guys always seemed pretty placid in comparison. And that is my two cents worth :D

**** cops too ******* uptight seriously he just ******* opened the door sorry I just hate when people are stupid (i.e. cops) and #201, yeah, cops here are straight up bitches, don't put up with anything (in most places anyway). and yeah I heard that in England you're SUPPOSED to get out of the car when you're pulled over so my friend's dad got a gun pulled on him the first time he was pulled over in America. basically cops here are ******* annoying #191- no. most police officers are bitches

#'s 11, 14, 23, 31 (and countless more of you that are so clueless) First of all, the reason behind not rolling your window down for three (3) days after getting it done is so the tint film doesn't shift. There is still moisture under the film itself and if you roll the window down then it will move and be ruined. As for you, # 14: 20% is extremely dark. The number stands for how much light is let through the film. Limo's have 5% which is why it is so dark. #31: just shut up... And for the rest of you calling it "tints", also shut up. It's TINT. No 's' I would know because I tint car's for a living. For whose ever story this is, that sucks a lot. Be careful

#21 Tint is pretty necessary if you live anywhere that gets remotely hot. Living in Phoenix I've been burned just getting into a car on a hot day. The tinted windows definitely help here, its the difference between being burned or just being hot.
