Always hide your stash somewhere that is seemingly inaccessible. I always place my stuff inside the body of my car. My "GEAR" shifter has panels that come off with some effort. I've let officers search my car plenty of times with more than a 1/2 zip in it.
Never found.
Also, if you get into the distribution busienss DO NOT EVER TALK ON YOUR REGISTERED CELL PHONE, EVER!
The FBI can tap your phone remotely.
Don't drive a car that makes you look like a hustler; IE rims, tinted windows, large trunk. Drive a car that the common man drives. Don't give the Police a reason to profile you as a druggie. Instead let them profile you as an everyday citizen.
Exposed or excessive tattoos are also a dead give away.
Instead get one of those pre-paid phones from wal-mart that you don't have to register with your name.
Another good idea is to not LOOK or TALK like a pot head. Long hair, consistent use of "dude," "man," "bro," etc. Wearing ratty clothes, backwards hats, sideways hats, baggy clothing, etc. etc.
Keep your hair trim and slick and blend in with everyone else.
When driving do not have your stuff simply in a baggie, get a small tupperware conatiner, or small vaccum seal bag. No air flow = no smell.
Always have adequate ventilation when traveling. Hide your stash, step out of the car for a moment and let it vent, then re-enter to see if you can still smell it.
Be smart. Some Cops may be dicks, but they definitley aren't idiots.
If pulled over, never be disrespectful or give any attitude. Be courteous and cooperative and chances are you won't be taken to jail.
If you've ever seen the film "Cocaine Cowboys" you can learn a HUGE lesson in it. One of the dealers profiled used to smuggle kilos in by boat. One time, upon re-entering a harbor, a coast guard ship was broken down. Instead of just going about their business and passing the boat by, they helped tow it in.
The Coast Guard let them go, and in future runs would simply wave to them rather than search them. Yet, they constantly had multiple kilos of the substance on their persons.
Another thing to remember is this; EVERYONE has a sign on their chest that says "Make ME feel special."
It is so true. I was pulled over by the Highway Patrol on my way to Nacogdoches because I was speeding. (95 in a 60) At this point in time I had long hair and a goatee. I was asked to step out of the car, and complied. My stash was very well hidden.
I gave them permission to search my vehicle, which was full of stuff for college, clothes, luggage, boxes, computer, etc. I was respectful and compliant. They asked me if I smoke marijuana and I didn't lie. I said I did. Then they asked if I had any in the car. I didn't say no. I said maybe, but I didn't know because I hadn't smoked in a while.
Then they asked why I was being so honest and I said; "Sir, it is illegal to lie to the law, and besides, your job is hard enough, and I respect what you guys do and wouldn't want to make your job any harder than it already is."
They let me go after BREIFLY searching my car, WITH A WARNING! No speeding ticket and no marijuana bust. They even both SHOOK MY HAND and WISHED ME LUCK AT SCHOOL!
Police men and women are people too and it's always best to recognize this fact and treat them as such.
I've also been pulled over for having an insection sticker over 9 months out of date; and because I was so respectful and honest I was let off without a citation.
This is the best advice I can offer at this point in time. If I think of ANYTHING else, I will post it here. |
