cmsally Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Antibiotics give a false positive result as one of my employees discovered last month. The following fiasco was quite the eye opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A helmet is required if you want to slide past the police roadblocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I did" means that 'I did forget' to mention it. It was in response to your post that said that I forgot, which is why I included your post in my reply. That's why I thanked you for reminding us.

Sorry, just because you never had an issue doesn't mean it dont happen. You say rumor, but I speak from personal experience. It has only happened a few times in the last 20+ years that I was completely legal and the police made something up, but it did happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be living in a dream world if you believe that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FolkGuitar Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Yes, it's certainly possible to run into problems no matter what you do. And some people are simply Sh!t Magnets. They seem to have problems all the time no matter what they do. We all know people like that... and we usually understand why it happens, too. But obey the laws and the chances of it happening to you are reduced to 'almost' zero. Please note the word 'almost.'

PhuketSarah Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Police have to take you to the station for a urine check. I would also be making noises about having two samples taken, one for a private lab analysis as you are afraid of false results. Do not say anything else or give any details about the tylenol you took earlier I cannot imagine it is legal to check tattoos either. My experience with authorities is to simply refuse, nicely. Make them realize I know my rights, and they back down. Edited August 10, 2017 by PhuketSarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the antagonism ?They are usually polite ,and if you have all documents there is no problem .Thats not to say i like being stopped though .
