I got pulled over and almost arrested in Gainesville once. I pulled up to a red light at like 3am, and sat there, and sat there, and sat there. I thought maybe I missed the sensor, so I backed up and then pulled back up to the line. Still no green light, and no traffic has passed anywhere on the road, so I said I'd wait 2 more minutes and then just run it.
So that's what happened, after 6 minutes of waiting I ran the red light. And got pulled over 1/4 mile later. As he's walking to the window, I unbuckle my seatbelt to get my wallet out of my back pocket. So, he charges me with running a red light, and not wearing my seatbelt. He then says " I watched you at that redlight for like 5 minutes, and knew you were gonna eventually run it, it breaks sometimes and stays red for up to 10 mins, it never fails to catch someone running it" to which I said "if you watched me and saw me run it after everything I did there, then pulling me over was bull$&@""
He then made me get out of the car and sit on the curb, and asked to search my car, I said there's nothing in there, and he said I can arrest you now for resisting arrest and we'll still search it, or you can sit there, shut your mouth, and let me search it. So he searched it, gave me 2 tickets, and left.
I have no love for the Gainesville PD
