Most likely he was looking for DUI (especially on Holiday weekends) and once he deemed that you were not intoxicated he cut you loose. They do that here alot.
Earlier this year when I had my B7 S4 I was stopped at a light making a left about 4 blocks from home. I made my left turn from a stop and I had already seen 2 motorcycle cops down the road about 100 yds with another car stopped so I was not going to fly by. Low and behold one cop walks out into the street and motions me to pull over. He claims I was flying down the road, yada, yada. I told him that that was impossible as I had just turned on to the street from a stop and though my car was fast it was not that fast. He pulls me out and gives me a breath test. As soon as I blew nowhere near .08 they cut me loose did not even run me in their computer. They then got on their bikes and no sooner making a big U turn across 6 lanes pulled another car right over. Talk about an illegal rolling DUI stop. But, such is life. |

Midway and Belt Line... I remember that area when I worked out there. Cops there are pricks in Addison. They profile and target you.
Yeah... quote time, and of course, it's the holiday season. They see a nice car and a young person driving it and want to scare them a little. Not like they have anything better to do.

That was my friend playing a decoy cop, Blake.
I have to slow you down somehow so you won't catch up with me in WAG. Be careful ...next time, you will get a ticket, bro. |

From the other side of the fence:
A few months ago I observed a white Yukon running 83/55. I was moving, and all I noted on the driver was a red ball cap. I got turned around, turned them on and started catching up. I got behind the vehicle and the driver pulled to the side. I walked up, made contact and the driver, a 50-something guy with no hat, asked why I pulled him over. I told him speeding and he said he was going around 65 and was sorry. This guy was cool and NOT wearing a red ball cap. I asked if he had a hat in the vehicle and he looked at me like I was an idiot. I told him I'd be right back with him, went to the car, rolled the video back and watched it. No shit, two white yukons... walked back, explained what happened and told him thanks for being honest and apologized for the stop. He laughed and said he was thankful I caught the mistake as he would've just taken the ticket and paid it since he was speeding. I missed the second Yukon trying to check my rear to ensure me hitting the brakes wouldn't cause a wreck. I've had other people tell me it wasn't them. I learned early on to always take a few extra minutes and make sure before hitting print on the ticket. I also learned to be honest with the folks you deal with. If I expect it of them, they'd better get it from me. And shit, we all make a mistake every now and again. Sounds like he knew it wasn't you and didn't know how to say it. |

Ensuring the car was not stolen perhaps?
