Forums - General - I got pulled over by a Police officer for going too slow

Was your fiance happy you were trying to provoke some road rage reaction from the idiot behind you? Just ignore them. Don't you have a dark setting on your rear view mirror, problem solved.

Drivers like you really annoy me on gta so good riddance.

I'd say it would have certainly been better to stay non-confrontational, in this case, and also more generally...



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

Well there are laws to driving too slow, so one can't fault the police for pulling you over.

Sadly like many things, you were the victim in this situation and the cop did not see the cause of it all.

He stopped being the victim and became part of the problem when he decided to react by intentionally going slow. honestly the truck driver may have been an A hole but their is only 2 things you can do, either continue to drive at the speed limit or pull over and let him past.

The way it sounded to me was that he slowed down to let the guy pass him. That is a kind good driving method. Once the person decides to continue to tailgate you regardless how slow you go, you know they are being an asshole and even if you sped up they would continue to tailgate you. Heck, evne if they passed you, they might slam on theri brakes in front of you.

Pulling over to the side of the road in situations like this may not be safe. The person could rob, kill, rape or whatever you. It's better to drive slow and safe than anythign else.

driving too slow is illegal for a reason, it is very dangerous and can cause accidents, especially at night.
