pulled over by a cop


Question Posted Wednesday June 4 2008, 12:06 am

I am 17 and I was driving home tonight, and as i was driving up a hill (i'll admit...probably a little too fast) i realized by lights were off- so i turned them on...and then a second later i saw a cop car behind me so i pulled over. When he came over he was just like (nicely) "I saw you fly up the hill with your lights off" (i wasn't going insanely fast). But he asked for my license (which was valid and everything), and he was just like alright have a good night. He didn't ask me for my registration, he didn't give me a ticket, and he didn't specify a "warning"

So my question is:
Am I on some kind of record now? like as far as i could tell he didn't write my name down (he was right in front of me the whole time).

And should i tell my parents?? I am kind of scared too- but i feel like i should- but idk whyy...

THanks soo much!!!

He more or less gave you a verbal warning.
It won't go on any records or anything.
More than likely he wouldn't have bothered
with you had you not popped your lights on
at just the time you did. It made him wonder
if you had been up to something. :)

if he didnt take down your name or any other information, then he let you off. he did this as a warning, and to probably see if you were a drunk driver. its easy to tell when someones drunk, so if you werent, thtas why he let you off. so dont worry about it, this is just a warning to be a more careful driver.
whereas telling your parents, thats up to you. personally, i wouldnt, becuase i dont think its that serious, but if you feel you should, then do it.

Chances are, no, you're not on any record on anything like that. He probably just wanted to scare you (And by the sound of it, he did).

Telling your parents is up to you, I guess.

you're so lucky...he let you off easy. As long as he didn't take your license and go to his car you are good to go. Don't worry about it, as long as there was no ticket you're fine.
