Driving 6 months now… wish I had this book before my 1st traffic stop. It would have saved me a lot of grief. It showed me all the mistakes I made and won’t make again.

Mellissa H.

As a former Highway Patrol Officer, I believe this book can really help drivers of all ages have a different perspective on the way they should look at dealing with Cops.

Bruce W.

I’m on my 1st trip to the US, and this information has opened my eyes to how I can comfortably interact with your nation’s police.

Wilhelm K.

The title is misleading: it should be called “Most mistakes you can make Dealing with Cops and How to Avoid Them”.

Mark G.

I wish this book was taught in Driver’s Ed. It’s the difference between knowing how to drive and knowing how to survive driving incidents with Cops.

Susan de F.

Wish I knew this stuff 20 years ago. It would have changed a lot of my traffic problems with Cops. A good resource to have in my phone now.

Carlos C.

So many simple truths, about so many simple things, that can save a person so many problems when dealing with Cops.

Bob W.

Why HTDWCOPS Is an Important Tool

The biggest thing that most people don’t understand about Cops, and why this book is an important tool to have, is that a Cop’s job takes them into the heart of darkness every day. Find some trouble that has taken place, or is still going on, then look around, of course, there are Cops there. Cops must get in the middle of all sorts of incredible crap, almost every day of their professional lives. No one ever calls the Cops to come over to enjoy a party…, only to squelch a wild one. No husband and wife ever get a Cop in a three-way hug, but they sure do get them involved in some knock-down, drag-out fights. No one invites them out to a bar for a friendly drink,…only to take care of the obnoxious drunk who is tearing up the bar.

Readers of this book will learn to understand that Cops have to live by a lot of rules that don’t apply to most other people. They may have to take actions in a split second that they will be held accountable for by a jury, possibly months or years later. They must openly operate against the interests of real criminals, like gangs and “wise guys”, while still maintaining a relatively high-profile life, both on and off the job. Knowledge of these things makes the information in this book an important tool for the average citizen.
