Have you ever been pulled over by the police while dressed?

[bredalee25]

If you have what was the officers reaction?

I've been stopped by the police while dressed. It was late after midnight I was parked in a small roadside public picnic area. I was outside my vehicle when I saw a car turn down the lane leading into the park. I quickly got in my vehicle and tried to pull out but to late the car was a police car and trapped me in. He got out came up to my window and asked what I was doing I said out for a drive and got tired stopped to walk around a bit before driving on. It seems I had gone into a park that was off limits after 10p.m. and since I was from out of town he let me go with a warning.

Wouldn't he have some story to tell everyone at the donut shop that night. Really I was from out of town as I had moved from that area a year prior to this happening so I did know about the curfew on the park but just wanted to walk around dressed.

Ok lets hear your stories BTW he never once said anything about the way I was dressed that shocked me.

no, not yet! its a definite fear of mine, because I drive a loud red sports car that just seems to attract the police

[SIZE="4"]Hi Venessa,
I have been stopped by the police twice while dressed. The first time I had just stopped to get a soda out of a vending machine at a closed gas station. He never said why he stopped me, but I'm sure he was checking why I was in a closed station well after midnight. Sent me on my way, never said a thing about the way I was dressed, {this was @1980}.
I was stopped the second time at a DUI check-point and this cop had a good time at my expense. He wanted to know why I was dressed "that way". I told him I was at a costume party and since I didn't drink I was the designated driver and had just taken some people home and was going back for more. He liked that but before he let me go he called over a few more cops so they could get a good look and all had a big laugh. I should have told him the truth, that I was a CD but at the time I just wanted out of there. {that was @ 1990}.
If it happened today I would no doubt tell the truth and let them deal with it.

My b/f has a very fast car, and I like to drive it fast. I have been pulled over about 4 times, nothing happened..not even a ticket! Admit, that you were speeding, be polite, and never cry lol. Flirting doesn't hurt either. Our cops are pretty cool, at the least the ones I have come in contact with.

Goes along with my theory NV Susan, most cops are frustrated school yard bullies!

[celeste26]

Been stopped once and that was one of those bogus stops just to offer some proof that the officer was actually working early in the AM. No ticket, no warning, and no comments at all about my outfit.

Things have changed much since the early days and I think that it would be rare to get anything but the most professional treatment from our peace officers anymore.

[Shelly Preston]

No, but I did once find them on my doorstep looking for directions

That seems a tad unfair to say, given the numerous stories here of cops being professional. It seems that by and large, cops just want to do their job.

In any case though, I found a good informative video about how to best politely interact with cops in a way that protects you the best here: http://www.flexyourrights.org. IMO, this should be required viewing for anyone.

I know it would be a mistake to mess around with cops, especially those you describe, but it would sure have been tempting; "So why are you all so interested in me, officers? You guys wanting my phone number or something?"
Or maybe "Your wasting your time flirting with me, don't you have criminals to arrest?" mj (Cassie)

My TS friend unbelievably once got stopped by the Law,for Driving too well.Seemingly they thought she was trying to compensate for being DUI by driving just too good,sometimes you can't win

[lady sawdust]

I shouldn't have read this before bed. Now I'm going to have nightmares.

This is a serious fear of mine. First off, since I was a really little kid, I've had a huge phobia of cops. Like if I even think there's one near me, I cannot perform basic functions, such as talk intelligibly, without using every once of strength and focus I have. Second, I have a few warrants out for my arrest (long, uninteresting stories) so if I were to get caught in that situation, I'd go straight to jail. I don't want to think about what would happen to a young reasonably attractive crossdresser! Horrible, simply horrible.

That happened to me once. I was moving from Minnesota out to California and left at three in the morning to avoid traffic. As I was driving down a main drag in the town I lived in, I was flipping through my iPod and driving a bit slowly as a result. Due to my phobia of cops, when he started asking me what I was doing driving around at 3, I stammered so incomprehensibly that he thought I was drunk! I had to go through the drunk test, breathalyzer and everything. And he was a complete ass to me the entire time. Thankfully I wasn't dressed otherwise that would've been even more horrible. :/

Another one through a DUI checkpoint. I was hyperventilating by the time the State Trooper came to my window. But he took my license and registration, asked me where I'd been and where I was headed, handed me them back and said "drive safely, Dana."

[AKAMichelle]

Last night I was in an accident with the instant cop on scene. He saw the accident which really disturbed me a lot. I wasn't terrified but I did want the whole thing to end quickly.

[Tara1967]

Back in '97 I was on my way back form Mrytle Beach in SC and was pulled over by a SCHP. He got out of the car and walked up to my drivers side and just stared at me. He didn't give any instructions for me to roll the window down or to get out or anything. He just lunged at my window and started beating on it with his fists, then forced his fingers at the top of the window and forced the window down and it was stuck there. He reached in an grabbed me and screamed at the top of his lungs to "get out of the car, get out of the car, get out of the car" over and over. Needless to say I was sacred out of my wits with fear. Then he proceeded to slam me against my car asking me was I speeding on his highway. He would scream each question about 10 times and when I would try to respond he would just Holler "WHAT" as loud as he could. I was bruised in many places on my upper body, but I offered no resistance for I knew he would've started beating me with his club. After he saw he could not rile me, He made me give him my keys to my car with the threat of 30 days if I refused a search so I gave him the keys and he opened my trunk, where he threw my leather jacket in a water hole. A heavy rain had just passed. He opened my suitcases and dumped all the contents on the ground. And all of my crossdressing stuff was revealed and dumped on the damp pavement. The works, skirts, dress, panties, wig, heels, hose, many items. Then he opened the other and did the same thing. He asked ,whose female clothing are these? he yelled. I lied and said my wife's. He then called his captain and he pulled up and walked over to me and grabbed me under my armpit and lifted me up on my tip toes and he screamed at me for a couple of minutes at the top of his lungs and not even allowing me to answer. He was just showing off for his deputy.
While the deputy was writing my ticket in front of his captain, he asked me "do you think you have been mistreated today" I said "no' He looked shocked and said "you mean, you don't think you have been mistreated?" I said "no" The captain asked the same thing in disbeif and again, I answered, "no". The captain drove off and the deputy said yeah we have been here and hour or so. I said, I can't leave right now. He asked why not. I said I have to fix the window you broke for a big rain is coming. This was the first time he got to hear me speak. He saw I was a well mannered, decent man. I saw him change from mean as H*** to one so humble and I could see that he began to feel badly for how he treated me. He even helped me fix the window on my car. Afterwards he said to me, you , you're aright, I'll tell you what, when you go to pay the tickets, tell them to call me and I'll cancel the seatbelt one. And I'll move the speeding one to less than 10MPH over to help you out. He even helped me put my crossdressing clothes back in my suitcases and shook my hand and said you have a good day sir. It did take a while for my bruises to heal though.

[ArleneRaquel]

No, thank God ! But about 4 years ago coming home late at night ( enfemme of course ) a police car followed me for three blocks, and then they parked in front of my house for about 10 minutes. I was dressed conservately, except for the mini.

[Lexine]

Nope, but I have a feeling that now that I've declared that that it's going to happen and have totally jinxed myself.

[Mya Summers]

Have not been pulled over YET!!..lol But have been follwed once by a State trooper on the interstate though for about 10 miles, then he flew past me like I wasn't even moving after giving me a heart attack when he turned on his lights..

[Nicole Erin]

I have, nothing happened aside a citation for my moving violation

Cops ain't gonna care, as long as you are not wearing pantyhose on your head and there was a bank robbery.

Also would not help if you were wearing white after labor day, the fashion police will arrest you.
And in the fashion police mobil, the song "Do you think I am sexy" by Rod stewart will be playing back to back with LAdy Gaga songs...

I am going to call foul on this. I believe that the use of Rod Stewart and "Lady" Gaga "songs" would constitute cruel and unusual punishment. :D

Once coming home late at night from downtown Portland. I didn't come to a "complete" stop at a stop sign. I didn't notice that an officer was right there looking for DUI drivers. He pulled me over I think more just to see if I had been drinking, and I told him I only had one drink hours ago. He took my license and registration. I kept telling myself just be cool and this will turn out OK. He came back and said "have a nice night, and be sure to come to a complete stop next time."

The next time I was on a business trip in Massachusetts. After working late I went back to the hotel and got dressed to go out, but it was really too late to do anything. So I stopped and got a coffee at Dunkin Donuts and drove around looking for places I would go shopping the next night I was able to go out earlier. I found a Kohl's about a mile away, and a Marshals store in a shopping center close to the hotel. When I drove into the hotel parking lot an officer drove up right behind me. As I got out of the car he came up to me and asked for my license. I gave it to him, and explained I was just looking for places to shop. He had me get back into the car and wait. He came back and wanted to know my room number in the hotel. I am sure he called the hotel to verify I was indeed a guest. It took about 15 minutes, but he finally motioned me over to his car and seemed to buy my truth. He said that there had been break-ins at that shopping center and it looked like I was casing the place. He took off, and I started to breath a little easier.

Note that in both cases the officers were polite. I was polite and cooperated with every request. My picture on my licenses is old and shows me with a full beard, and it clearly has an M in the gender field. In both cases my gender presentation was never mentioned.

A few years ago I was coming home from a GG friends place from a night of dancing. I drove into a checkstop setup by the city cops. I was asked how my night was and if I had been drinking. I was calm on the outside but shaking on the inside. The male cop was nice but his partner was rude(a GG). I don't know what her problem was but a few minutes later I was on my way.

[Rogina B]

Two stops,one ticket.I had to pass the "field test" in heels..not so easy to do.I don't drink and drive as a result of that "test"..not even one..I had had only a draft beer and knew that I would pass after the gymnastic program...Which could become a real bad scene,easily,with the wrong officers in the wrong place..Be careful!:2c:

[RitaCD]

Yes, I was pulled over last year by a city cop while on my way to my favorite night club. I was wearing a new halter dress and had done an exceptionally good job with my makeup that night. I noticed the policeman at an intersection as I passed. He turned out behind me and turned on his lights. I could not imagine what I had done wrong. He asked asked me for my license and registration. As I handed them over to him I asked why he stopped me. He said that there was a reported stolen vehicle matching the description of my car. He asked if I still lived at the same address listed and I said yes. After verifying everything was current and correct he told me to have a good evening. I went on to the club.

I really think it was a bogus stop. He saw me pass through the intersection and just wanted to get a better look.

[Megan70]

Been pulled over twice, once by Sheriff, once by State police for bad lane lane and suspected DWI, sidewalk field sobriety test ( done dressed in a ghetto neighborhood with the 'brothers' watching) and Breathalyzer failed to prove them right. In both cases not a word was mentioned about the fact I was cross dressed. Its irrelevant to them, they're only concerned about the alleged charge or reason they pulled you over, period. They can get into trouble if they stray off that tract. When they approach the car I hand them my license with male picture and announce thats me, I'm a cross dresser. Not a comment made. Have no fear.
