IF YOUR STOPPED BY THE POLICE
« on: 12 July 2009, 14:32:01 »

while driving your car do you have to get out of your car when you've stopped . I'm thinking along the lines of being pulled by a plain clothes officer .He is in an un liveried vehicle with strobe lights illuminated .he doesn't leave his vehicle but beckons you to him. What would you do

i'd stay in my car and wait for him to come to me.

he may of been thinking you would do a runner as he got near your car, thats why he stayed in his.

few options
Drive to a cop station as previosly mentioned.

Pull into a petrol station as they have good camaras, (you could even get inside before the driver does)

stop in a busy area with all doors locked and phone 999 and dont get out the car until a marked vehicle arrives and the operator confirms that they are with you.

If pulled by the plod I belive you have the right to see his warrant card, if you are still unsure I think you have evey right to ring his Police station.

As for being beckoned from your car to his.  he would have a very long wait in my case as I would refuse to move.
