Just Another NYC Day..
So I'm in a car, gettin a ride from a friend from my workplace to penn station (nyc) around 515 today...weather's nice, streets are crowded and the music in the car is bumpin'...
we get a half block away from the station and get caught at a light so i tell my friend that im just gonna walk across the street so i get out, and after i take two steps on the sidewalk i hear..
cop (in plain clothes) - "place your hands on the truck (parked on street next to sidewalk), spread your legs and dont move "
me: "umm...what's goin on?"
cop: "do u understand english, i said dont move, dont speak until i say so...why did u get out of that car so quickly?"
me: "im goin to the station to catch a train home.."
cop: "do you know that car has an expired registration??"
me:"umm..no its my friend's car, sorry.."
he then proceeds to ask me where i work (including the street address), where i commute from, how old i am...oh and he asks me to open up my bag and take out everything, then takes a look at my license and promptly says.."ok sorry about the holdup, you're free to go. we ran the plates on the car a few blocks back, saw that the registration was expired and then thought you were running from something."
