nope they can pull u over if they have just cause but can not give a ticket for traffic violations b/c if they did it would fall under entrapment.

that right there is bullshit. that's not entrapment. it's not like they challenged someone to a race and pulled them over when they sped. if you're breaking the law in front of them, then that suck for you.

I have been pulled over and ticketed by unmarked. Just cause was the air freshener on my mirror "blocking my view" and traveling into a drug affiliated neighborhood (may I remind you I live there and travel it every day). Ticket was for failure to make a complete 3 second stop at the stop sign.

Indeed unmarked can and do give traffic violations. Took one to court before, added another 35$ fee onto it for court fees.

Assholes gonna be assholes. Some just want that easy "quota" (that thy cant write down or talk about as it's illegal). Job security.

This sir, is what we call corruption.

where i live here is the rule
ORC 4549.13 Marking and equipment for motor vehicle used by traffic enforcement officers.
Any motor vehicle used by a member of the state highway patrol or by any other peace officer, while said officer is on duty for the exclusive or main purpose of enforcing the motor vehicle or traffic laws of this state, provided the offense is punishable as a misdemeanor, shall be marked in some distinctive manner or color and shall be equipped with, but need not necessarily have in operation at all times, at least one flashing, oscillating, or rotating colored light mounted outside on top of the vehicle. The superintendent of the state highway patrol shall specify what constitutes such a distinctive marking or color for the state highway patrol.

so the way i see it is that you must have a light on top of the car to tell me hey im a cop.

This still doesn't mean an unmarked can't pull you over and ticket you on his way to another offense. They have ways around everything. The state wants them $$$'s.

In some states it is illegal to issue a ticket from an unmarked car. People have been trying to not have their ticket cancled so they can appel the virduct to have the government punished for this illegal practice. However in those states the case is found not guilty in almost all of these cases in order to prevent appeal.
