Re: What is a cop required to say after he pulls u over?

I do not believe a police officer is "required" to say anything on a standard car stop. He should read Miranda rights before taking you into custody if he did so. Otherwise, I am not sure what you are getting at. If you would like to discuss the specifics of your case, or how these matters are typically handled, I am in New Jersey and offer free consults on these matters.

Feel free to give me a call or e-mail.

Thanks,
