ps the point of my story is cops can pull you over for no reason and just make one up when they get to your window

stupid cop the blunt was in the AC vent i couldnt belive he didnt find it, i was smoking it 30 seconds before he pulled me over
Hence the name: smok'nZ

OP: contact the department, file a report and go from there.

Now we know how you came up with your screen name.

I don't know what's funnier here. The fact that the cop couldn't find a joint in the ac vent, or the fact that the guy who's driving his car while he's half-baked is calling the cop stupid.

post some pics. the scratches may buff out. it's not worth the hassle unless the car needs some paint work.

Even if you did match the description of someone who committed a robbery around that time, how does that justify a drug search? I could understand if they wanted to search your car for stolen merchandise but bringing in a sniffer dog is ridiculous, cop was just trying to give you a hard time.

He only has to pay the lawyer if he losses the case, if he wins (and he probably will) they have to pay his legal fees.

If they walk the dog around the vehicle and it is alerted, that gives them probable cause and they can search your vehicle. If they destroy anything in the process of the search it as at the owners expense even if they don't find anything.

I thought that was SOP in some areas. ?? When a CHP pulled me over when I was stationed in Cali, I was in the left lane and the traffic was thick. He puts his lights on at an intersection so I turned left and pulled over. This ******* jumps out with his gun drawn yelling for my hands! I comply and he walks up and says "You gonna try and run from ME!?" LMAO I'm trying not to laugh at this fool and point out the fact that I AM in fact stopped at the SOONEST possible time! He stopped me for tailgating but I told him to turn around and look at the traffic, that **** was bumper to bumper! He shakes his head tells me to be careful and leaves. Had to be just because I had out of state plates and military base decal. Some Cops are just gonna be pigs.

Ever get that door repaired? What did the PD say??

I am going to say you are **** out of luck! My friend had a dog do over a thousand in damages to his truck, he even got a lawyer, the judge pretty much told him that cops can do whatever they want to...

^^^^ ^^agreed
i dont know how it is with local but when i went thru yuma at the border patrol i guess a white man with a wife and two kids in the back was good enough to have the dogs over. they told me to get out of the truck and the dogs jumped up in the truck and the claws ripped thru my seats and all they said was sorry. and there was nothing i could do.

seems reasonable that even if you have pot in the car and your car smells like it, if the cops can't find it and/or don't charge you, it seems like if nothing else your insurance should cover the damage. if you were caught with pot even the insurance would deny you. so, i guess try to sue the cops but ultimately i think your insurance is going to be your only hope.

really hope everything works out for you man, do your best just dont get too deep into it. if its gonna cost more for legal fees than to fix your car than i say in my opinion just get your car fixed. but i do agree that it is a bunch of BS.
