Standing up to tow trucks
The best way to get arrested is to say "I know my rights". Cops love that. They know your rights way better than you do. My friends and I were drinking tequila in our apartment and went next door to visit some other friends who lived in the same complex. We were out on the porch watching the tow truck drivers abuse their privileges and drag tenants cars off the lot and charge hundreds. We heard them laughing on their radios and calling themselves bandits. My best friend and roommate at the time had had enough. He took another shwig of margarita and ran out to confront the big towtruck David and Goliath style. He told them to stop towing people who lived there, and that they were breaking the law. The driver laughed and said they were adhering to the apartments policies. My friend ran up to the tow truck and jumped up onto the hood and walked onto the cab and jumped off. The driver said he was going to call the police. My friend said go ahead they'll arrest you for towing people who live here and waited with him for the police. This is what tequila does to people. Righteous indignation. The cops arrived and matched the footprint on the top of the tow truck to my friends shoe and hauled him off. To this day he swears he wasn't drunk but he was also arrested for drunk in public. That's the day we learned that you aren't in private in your gated apartment complex. as soon as you step out the door, you're in public.

The suburban area was really quiet at night and I felt really free when I'd be coming home at 3am or whatever, so I would often take little shortcuts and walk through places that weren't meant...

I ran to a street a few blocks away with my friend. We thought we were in the clear, a cop drove up from behind and began talking to us. After a few minutes he messaged in on his radio "...

My friends and I bought a hookah around October, and being the fine, upstanding citizens that we are, we only smoke it outside, and not in our dorms, exactly twenty feet away from the door to our building. Now we, being college students, also love bud, and have been known to occasionally put some mary-j in our bowl along with the shisha. We've always gotten away with this, as... Read More »
I had just gotten my real license 3 weeks earlier (after 6 months of a learners permit) and was out driving to my friend's house. I was in a quiet residential area out of the way, so I figured it would be fine to break the speed limit by about 10-15 mph since there were surely no cops around. But sure enough, I blazed past a police car, all the while doing 40 in a 25. There go... Read More »
