I was splitting on 36 last year, horrid traffic, it was moving slow as shit, and i was melting from the heat. Of course, I go right by a cop hidden behind some bushes. Knowing I was already f'd since I was on the shoulder at that moment, I pulled over before he even managed to get his lights on.
Luckily, I got a reasonable cop, explained the situation, and because I wasn't a dick (ie: stopped when I knew he would be getting me anyways), he didn't care. He did, however, tell me where there were other cops who actually hate anyone not on a cruiser (arrogant fucks deserving of the term "pig"), and where they hid; which was nice.
