LIke Carl Price, I live in Tennessee as well, I agree it is easy to get pulled over by cops for no real reason.
Once I took a job 3rd shift job at a factor. I met a guy there the first day that drive about half the route I took, so we decided to take turns driving.
Mistake One....
He had just moved to Tennessee from Maryland.
Mistake 2
He still had out of state car tags and liecene.
WHat happened
In a 2 week period we got pulled over 3 times. The first time a cop got behind us at the City line, followed us about 2 miles, then 2 more cop cars pulled up then they pulled us over. Said we are crossing the yellow lines Bull Sh*T.
It was fun trying to explan that we had just started working the night shift, he had just moved to the area, they had seperated us and ask us question..
The funny question were, the cop looked right at me and ask me if I knew the guy that was driving.....Where we were going....
We had to other times getting stopped in that 2 week period, No tickets, but I personally believed it was because of his out of state tags, however there is noway to prove that.
Once he changed to a Tennessee tag we never had a problem with the local cops....
LawyerRon if you read this, tell me do some people make good cases about the only reason that they had got tickets was because they are from out of state...
I believe that cop figure that out of state people won't come back to fight a ticket, most court appearances are about a month after the fact if someone want to fight it, which makes it more of a plain to fight it, instead of paying it.
Personal I don't believe all cop are corrupt or anything, but I do believe some are.
