The PoliceSitting in my local pub late one night enjoying the landlord's flexible idea of what constitutes his licencing hours, a bunch of drunk blokes in raincoats burst in. Requesting to be served, one shouted at the barman "It's alright - we're not coppers!"
They were spitting images of Lt. Columbo to a man. The barman laughed them out of the pub.

Boxing day, 2002I was on my way to my friends house, and was pulled over for expired tags. Fair enough. Officer asks if he can check my car, of course I say yes. Now, although I'm a smoker, I'd never used the ashtray (had the car a couple of weeks is all).
The officer asked what the brown bottle of liquid was in the ashtray, at which point I told him I didn't know. He started getting a bit heavy with me "Tell me what it is, or I'll have you arrested for possession". I explained that I don't take drugs, and I had absolutely no idea what was in the bottle in the ashtray.
So he handcuffed me, sat me on the kerb (of a very busy street) and called out the mobile drug squad.
By this point I was bricking it, as I knew the previous owner smoked pot at the very least.
After about 10 minutes of my car being thoroughly searched and a drug test being done on the liquid in the bottle, I hear laughter coming from the cops (by this point there's 5 squad cars as well as the drug unit).
Turns out it was air freshener! The officer let me off the expired tags ticket and was VERY red-faced and apologetic.
