Re: harrassment

First of all, a "security guard" can't pull you over as far as I know...only a police officer can. Secondly, the law protects people who don't stop immediately if they are going to a well lit area, so long as they give some indication that that's what they intend to do (i.e., call 911 and tell them what you're doing, putting on your flashers, going slower instead of speeding up, etc.)
