Question about what cops can/cannot do when they pull you over.

There's shitty people in every career field. It just hurts more when you get a shitty cop over a shitty fry cook. I've been pretty lucky with most of my run ins with the law, but even when they were dicks I was still breaking the law.

My friend got a ticket for "failure to obey traffic device".. she was speeding 57 in a 45. The cop said the system was down so he asked her for her social, Now correct me if i'm wrong but that can't be legal... what the hell would he look up with her SSN, don't they call in the ID number and thats it if they're computer is down? What can she do about it?

I'm not saying all cops are bad, but people should just make it public when police use harassment on good citizens that do nothing wrong. Is it right that they pull you over for the type of car you drive? I think not. Thats called being prejudiced. Police shouldn't be feared by the public. They are here to serve the public trust and protect the innocent. I too once wanted to be a cop myself until i found out the things they have to do. But they shouldn't get away with some of the things they do. That is my point. And i don't encourage anyone to write a newspaper article unless there was serious harassment going on with the situation. I wasn't alone in my principles. When others voice their opinions on the same matter, you know its bad then.

Well My brother in law is a County Prison Warden here in PA. He tells me all the time how the "old school" are long gone. The older guys do there job and do it well. The new guys do not Serve and Protect like the motto goes. This is not the scenario in all cases, but lets be serious, the new generation has lost respect and allow their own personal vendetas get in the way.
Consider this one, In PA if you make it through the academy you are guaranteed a job. Which pushes up the employment rate and overload of officers. We now have 2 officers per vehicle for traffic detail. Is traffic detail that vital that we need 2 per vehicle? You would think 1 of the officers could be better utilized doing something else.
