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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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

that's illegal of the cop to do...you are actually allowed to get out of your car and do whatever you want until the cop tells you what to do, and as soon as you don't give them your registration you don't have to say anything else...90%sure

#137: I wouldn't do anything based on your "90% sure" comment ;) Cops can do quite a bit to you if they have any reason to think of you as a threat.. Opening a door, especially AS THE COP APPROACHES, is unusual and would make a lot of cops react this way. Best course of action is to treat them with quiet respect and hope they don't ruin your day.

Never met a cop who wasn't a bastard. Can't say as you deserved his reaction if he hadn't even got a glimpse at your hands yet. 20% tint isn't even dark, and calling out "show me your hands" or "get back in the vehicle" would have been enough. Even if concerned, he could have just placed his hands near/at his holster, and not drawn his weapon. ******* psycho.

Actually, 135, most people here would probably have kept their hands on the wheel, told the cop what was up, and let the cop see that no, they weren't grabbing a gun and opening the door to prepare to fire. Are there seriously that few of us who had a state trooper and/or common sense come into their Driver's Ed class? This was one of the first things he let us know about (accompanied by a fairly dramatic demonstration) to make it easier for both parties, and it was one of the first things my parents told me. Whether or not you think cops are bastards and all, they pulled you over and they're quite worried about becoming the target. Don't be a bastard yourself - save your 'nonviolent resistance' for somewhere where misinterpretation will not occur...

here you go, as far as I have seen 20% isn't allowed anywhere in the US. Unless the OP meant to say 80% tint; since the percentage designates % of light that comes in.

GOD PEOPLE HOW CAN HE HAVE DESERVED IT?! He should have been a good little cop and possibly got shot so that he doesn't inconvience ppl. **** his wife, kids, and family.. I want to have tints dammit! And don't you know how this could have been prevented by telling him to put his guns outside the door? Its not like he could have put.... lets say A GUN outside the door and shot him.... it was totally unnecessary for the cops to pull out a weapon to potentially save himself. All you ppl saying he deserved it are stupid... and are not genuses like teh ppl like me who kno dat cops shood jus b shot.
