Re: Got pulled over for driving a rental car. Legal?
What you say to a police officer, or what he or she says to you, may very well be used in court either against you or potentially for you. That's important enough a reason to record the interaction. You have to be really naive to make that comparison and not be able to see the difference there. Eve...

Re: Got pulled over for driving a rental car. Legal?
Being of a minority doesn't mean anything. I hate when people bring race into it. "Oh I got a ticket. The cop was a real ass because I was *insert race here*". If you get pulled over, there are two reasons for that. 1 - You are breaking the law, or 2 - They suspect you may be breaking the...

Re: Got pulled over for driving a rental car. Legal?
Do cops run plates of all cars around them? I don't know if its a factor, and I feel weird even putting it out there, but I am of an ethnic minority, I'm South Asian... but I don't necessarily think it was a racial thing at all.

Interesting...jsherk wrote:In Ontario, Police can pull somebody over just to check their drivers license, insurance and registration whether its a rental car or not. They do not need any other reason.

Got pulled over for driving a rental car. Legal?
So I'm extremely ignorant on the issue and couldn't find anything else online about this, so I thought this would be the best place to ask Sunday evening, I'm driving in Mississauga around the Heartland area with 2 friends of mine in the car, well on par with the speed limit, driving 70 on a 70 road...
