Hi, can anyone provide any information on the rules of Police Departments. Earlier this year I was stopped on Westbound I-66 by a City of Fairfax Police Officer. I was driving Westbound when a Police vehicle came up behind me with lights and sirens on. I immediately stopped and the officer approached and stated that I had almost struck a vehicle in the City of Fairfax. Apparently a person had called and complained about my driving. I have no idea what they were talking about. Anyway, it has bothered me because I have spoken with several people who say the officer, I believe he was a supervisor as he had gold patches and I think that signifies rank, had no right to stop me because I did not commit a crime, and I was out of his jurisdiction. Any insight would be appreciated.
