Hoover PD Pulls Me Over

***ZGN*** · 11-27-2008, 01:21 AM

Not doing anything to draw attention to myself at all, I was stopped by the Hoover PD this evening 9:00pm, driving my FD at the corner of 31 S and Lorna. I was 1st car in the far left turn only lane (two turn only lanes to left) I turned left then the blue lights came on. He pulled me over and then said I forgot to signal left turn, after a 10 min interrogation, license, registration, insuance outstanding warrant check, asking if I had been drinking, do drugs, Do I have pills or guns in the car, and if I have ever been arrested, he gave me a warning for failure to signal.

I try to always signal, I don't recall if I did or did not at that light. I felt like I was being harrassed, but I suppose he was just doing his job.

Glad to know these guys are keeping the streets safe around the holidays!
