    They do that here in PA all the time. They always have one right by my house on the one overpass. Always a couple State Troopers along with 4 or 5 cops from our township. Nothing to see 3 people pulled over with another 4-5 waiting on the on ramp waiting to pull people over. Here in PA local police can't use radar, only the State Troopers so they usually have at least one of them there up top shooting radar.

    The cops job is to:

    1. Find.
    2. Arrest
    3. Help convict you.

    Never talk to the police! Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. Say no to search! It's your 4th amendment right! You don' have to answer any questions without the assistance of an attorney.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    4th Amendment is unreasonable search and seizure.

    5th is the right to remain silent (self incrimination)

    This is a very efficient way to do things. Instead of having one cop clocking traffic and pulling one person over at a time you can pull multiple speeders over with multiple cops

    Lol I love people like this...you guys crack me up. Ever thought about the fact that you are proving your guilt if you refuse to let them search or if you refuse to talk? If you have nothing to hide then why try to be a hard ass?

    Plus the chances of some rogue police officer on a power trip pulling over a perfectly innocent individual and searching their vehicle is slim to none...do you believe everything you hear? People tend to omit parts of their stories so they look better, Don't believe everything people tell you...especially someone with a history of lying. People typically don't get accused of crimes for no reason at all. With many years of fraud and theft investigations under my belt and my interview & interrogation training I have been through, I think I know a thing or two about criminal behavior and psychology.
