My driver's side power window in my car is broken and doesnt go down. Original motor burnt out, tried the aftermarket motor, it burnt out in about 30 seconds, and I dont know why, the window does not seem to be binding on anything. But, I have ghetto rigged it locked with a screwdriver in the meantime, and I can manually lower it with my hands. I did this mostly to fears of what would happen if I got pulled over, and couldn't tell the officer that my window was broken.
I know sometimes, like on the interstate, they will approach on the shoulder side, but generally they stay out of sight for their safety to get a better look to see if you have a gun or anything, and if your gunna turn around to look at them, its only going to cause more problems.
If you got pulled over, and your car's driver's window doesn't rull down, what would be the best course of action?
I would assume, pull over and stop promptly (given), then turn on interior lights, roll down passenger window, and keep hands visable. Then, I guess yell to the officer while looking forward to inform him that your driver's window isn't working?
I know the last thing you want to do is open the door, the cop doesn't know what's going on. And, my back windows are tinted, so at night, its an extra concern for the PD as they can't see whats up untill they approach.
Ideas?
