Default Damn, fingers crossed for a speeding ticket. Damn unmarked White van this morning...

Heading to work this morning in a rush, my V1 did not sound until I drove past a unmarked white van with something sticking out of it's roof...I hit the brakes immediately, but I may have been too late.

Happened on Minnesota Ave just before you hit Meridian Ave, in Willow Glen in San Jose...

Was it marked? Cause unmarked police vehicles arent allowed to make ruitine stops.

Default Dunno why he pulled you over then.

Unmarked cop cars arent allowed to pull you over to routine stops unless he knows you have a gun or drugs in the car...pretty much felony stops...and if its just a regular stop he has to radio in a marked squad car to issue you the ticket.
