Not once after everyone - including another law enforcement officer - pointed out this is normal in BH and has been for quite some time (decade plus) did you say, gee well I guess if my car wasn't farting and burbling cuz I was in sport+ mode… Its still not fair not right and you'll bring it up with the bar (LOL) association - considering you have to meet with them anyways to discuss crypto currencies and whatever other mumbo jumbo you said.
So care to show us your humbleness and how I might've missed that in the middle of all your other words?

Never once did I say anything was unfair. I'm sure those ferraris and Lamborghinis get pulled over as well. I was just surprised that I was pulled over, is all. I also felt that the officer's mentioning this "new law" (and he did say "new," so he must not have been referencing the ordinance I pulled), and then letting me go meant his pulling me over had no merit.
You asked if I knew Beverly Hills and that I "shouldn't do dumb shit" there. - I was only indicating that I've grown up in the area and drive it all the time and have never been pulled over. Please let me know where I said it wasn't "fair" ... only that I was surprised. And, as I pointed out, the law is not "you can't drive in sport mode"
Didn't know mentioning my profession was frowned upon, either. I said I would bring it up with the Bar Association out of pure curiously 
I may be digging a grave here, but I think the word is humility, and I can already tell I'm not going to convince you of anything behind a keyboard. We don't know each other in person, and maybe I was quick to jump and respond to certain posts, but I'm not bringing character witnesses to bimmerpost nor do I need to prove myself to an internet persona. I won't respond to your posts calling me out directly anymore, but will of course continue any discourse on topic. |
Dude you're good, you don't come off in any negative way/cocky way. I don't know why people attack other forum members personalities who they know nothing about. I live down the street and I know exactly what you are talking about.
I have a middle eastern background and I am younger so I got the same "Is tHiS yOuR dAdS cAr?" Question before. Not for exhaust but for tint.. Not saying blatantly profiled or anything but was not really the most pleasant interaction. |
Appreciate the post. I tried my best not to stir the pot, but realize my initial post (which I posted probably 10 mins after being pulled over and arriving home) may have been a bit of a hot take/rant.
Haven't really thought about the incident since and I haven't been pulled over since, even continuing to drive the way I normally do through that area, although I've used "efficient" mode more later at night
That being said, apparently many of the robberies in broad daylight in BH have been perpetrated by individuals in stolen BMWs, which may have prompted the initial stop and question as to whose car it was.
