I LOVE this clip, and the title of the audio makes it all that much sweeter.

[Ah Pook]

I guess that would depend on if you are being contacted by a jail-able offense or not and I have probable cause to arrest you.

Thank you.

[KevDen2005]

Thank you.

Think of it like this...

From the officer did he say, "Can you take your glasses off?" or "Take your glasses off."

Slip him a 10 spot...they love bribes...its science.

when I wear shades, I'll take them off when talking to someone, out of a basic courtesy.

I try to do the same. Especially if I'm meeting someone for the first time.

Oh, and if the officer asks you (or tells you) to take your glasses off... just comply. It's not like he asked you for a rim job. You'd feel awful silly if you were beaten for not following a very simple request.

Of all the things to ask for....can't say this request has ever come out of my mouth.

I've been asked, or told don't remember, to take off my sun glasses and compiled. I tend to listen and try to avoid making the situation worse when I'm dealing with cops.

Compliance is often the compromise that ends the encounter as quickly as possible.

Each of us will make the decision we believe is correct on any given occasion. We often do not know whether the choice we made was correct, but we will live with the consequences of that decision.

Be safe.
