I never understood why LEOs can't/won't admit they made a mistake. One time I got pulled over and the first thing the cop did was get on his loud speaker ordering me to stay in the car, keep my hands visible and not to move. When he finally approached the car his gun was out of the holster except for maybe the last inch of the barrel. He approached using my car as a shield.

Once he got a good visual of the interior of the car and my license he relaxed a bit. Then he says "do you know why I pulled you over?" I said "no" and he said "it was because you have a cracked windshield".

Come on, at least own up to the fact the car or myself matched the description in a BOLO. If this is how he acts on a cracked windshield I would be terrified to see how he would act for a busted tail light.
