I bet everyone here has been followed (checking license plate), pulled over for a light bulb out, etc.
Well I ran into my (black) friend in Milwaukee at the Chevron at he said he was driving along the 4 lane stretch and a cop did a U-turn to pull him over for a small head light that was out. The officer then went to the passenger window where a woman was sitting and said that he smelled pot. The whole vehicle was searched while a second cop showed up as "backup". I smelled their car at the Chevron and all i could smell was a faint "cigarette" smell in his nice Acura. Well, anyways this pissed me off because he is a really down to earth nice guy and so was his friends (hot passenger btw).
I told him of Portland PD tailgating me on 82nd and NE Fremont about twice now within the last year. They'll see me drive by in my 4 door bright red pontiac grand prix with chrome wheels and check out my tags. I am a white boy with no tinted windows, no music blaring. The summer before we had a PD motorcycle sting on NE 57th and Sandy Blvd and this cop did a U-turn at 2:00 pm in the afternoon follow me for 2 blocks, check my tags and then do another U-turn going back the other way on Sandy Blvd. Did he use blinkers no.
I know PD and other law enforcement put their lives on the line but lately I am agitated by their behavior and should follow mostly the rules like everyone else while on duty.
