Can an on duty police officer pull over another on duty police officer and ticket him for speeding?

No.  That would make for bad relation between cops.  If he did, he would most likely end up behind a dumpster.  Died from a cap in his *ss.

Cops don't ticket other cops...and if you are lucky to have a relative that is a cop you can get a "get out of jail free" badge for your car...no more tickets...ain't it great?\nThere should be a law against that.

If you want a serious answer, this is it.  I have worked in Law Enforcement for 15 years and this is one of the more mundane types of contact the police have.  DON'T LIE!!!!!.  If you know you were speeding say so IF ASKED.  Be polite and don't make excuses, the officers have heard them all and know when you are lying.  Don't give the officer grief, after all this is his job and depending on how fast you were going you may have be a hazard to yourself and others.  A ticket is not the end of the world and in most places if you do not receive multiple tickets you can get it dismissed by taking a safe driving course.  Remember the roadways are for everyone so be safe and allow others to be safe also.  Good Luck!

If you can safely pass them without going over the speed limit , then post your turn signal pass and then post your signal back.  You can pass a cop if they are going under the speed.  But beware ya might tick em off.  LOL

If you hit another car, and a witness claims you ran the stop sign, the cops might issue you a ticket.  However, if someone just tells a cop that you ran a stop sign, and you claim you didn't, they can't issue you a ticket.  For a violation without an accident, there has to be some record or it has to be witnessed by a police officer.

It depends on what you were doing when you got pulled over.  If you were doing something really stupid then handed the cop a card, he will probably take it from you.  For ordinary traffic stops, they usually don't mind use of the card and will give you a break.  The card is supposed to be given to people who a law enforcement officer believes are good drivers.  The card acts to give a little forgiveness to an otherwise good driver when he or she makes a minor mistake.  Of course, that's not how they are handed out.  \n\nThe FOP is only one organization that provides cards.  Sometimes, if you are stopped in a jurisdiction in which the cops don't belong to the FOP they will take the card and give you a ticket for any offense.

I don't know about in NY, but it can happen in GA;  cop wrote ticket for failure to yield right of way; guy even admitted he ran the red light light; witnesses all agreed;  judge let him go b/c officer should have written "failure to yield right of way while making a left hand turn"!!

Almost every state has laws that authorize law enforcement to exceed the speed limit during the course of their duties, as most receive special training to drive at faster speeds. The reasoning for this is that there are times when you don't want to draw attention to yourself as you attempting to get somewhere thereby alerting the bad guys.

I believe the only way to fine a driver is to have a police officer issue the driver a ticket and then have a judge issue the fine. In other words, only the government can fine drivers, no one else.

depending on where you are from..I am sure laws change from place to place..I would suggest speaking to a lawyer..most will allow you an hour of their time to sit and talk..for free...but the police cannot continue to pull you over or stop you for no reason..4 times for me ..I went to the police station..told them one more time and there would be police harrasment charges laid...it ended there..good luck to ya..gotta hate the cops on power trips

As a police officer, the best advise for anybody being arrested, pulled over for speeding, stpped walking down the street, however you come into contact with law enforcement- Shut your mouth! Do not volunteer ANY info besides name date of birth etc, when an officer says "Do you know how fast you were going?" NEVER say "yeah I was going a little fast wasn't I?", say "No officer, was I speeding?" the way you answer a question can prove willfull violation of the law be it on a speeding ticket or a murder charge. You have a right to remain silent for a reason.

If the Officer was driving around in his vehicle it would be illegal. The officer is subject to the same laws as we are not to mention that this is dangerous for anyone else on the road. However if he is parked offside the road of course he can have his lights off while radaring people. \nIt is not entrapment the Officers lights off is not forcing you to speed. I'm sure if he had is headlights on and was offside the road alot of people would still speed by.

I am a police officer in Florida and we pretty much do the same as Richard's department.  The detectives on scene will decide whether to request additional assistance, such as from the Sheriff's Office or from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

OK civilian cops need a reason to pull you over un like what the second person said.  The can stop you because there are numbers on the tag and when the officer ran you plate the more then likely came back as expired, the DMV should have put something in computer for the cops so it would say that you had a temp tag but more then likely it did not make it into the comp and the cop needed to see the numbers on the tag and run those to make sure it was not stolen from another vehicle.  there are also regs on how it should be displayed so if it was done wrong he could have stopped you for that

Interesting answers.  Have to have the window down a certain amount??\n\nThe answer to your question in California is yes; you can be pulled over, cited, and if found guilty in court, fined.
