Pulled Over AGAIN in My Ford GT!

- My Ford GT was always going to get pulled over by police in the USA at some point! Driving around the country with my UK licence plates causes a lot of confusion and as such in San Francisco we saw this coming the moment the cops spun around behind us.
Fair play to the officers in question, they were very polite and friendly as I explained how the system works with a temporary import of a vehicle to the United States. As a visitor to the country you are allowed to drive it here for a period up to 12 months on the foreign plates and hence I've been touring around the whole country exactly as you see it. The normal assumption is that the car is not displaying tags at all because they are so unfamiliar from the normal US style plates, regardless of which state the car is from.
Anyway, all checked out, the documents showed exactly what they needed to and on we go again! I'm sure this won't be the last time the car is pulled over to explain, after it happened for the first time in New York City. Thank you to the cops in question for being so helpful and kind in the process.

Fair play to the officers, they couldn't have been more friendly asking about my car with UK plates here in the USA!
Shmee150 paint your exhausts gold
They should know you by now 👍🙏🤣
Shmee150 love ur content
Your videos are awesome!!!! And this video is my favourite!!
Just wanted to say thanks, before this comment gets snowed under. So, thanks Tim!
Officer: "License and registration please"
Shmee: "Hello I'm Shmeeeee!"
😂
I burst out laughing 😂😂😂😂
This is the funniest comment ever I've read in youtube 😂
Half choked on my breakfast reading your comment lol
Best comment 👍😂😂😂😂
Its just funny to see an imported ford in america lol. Thats like importing a Mercedes to Germany.
Elite Exposure r u trolling or what
Affee how is that trolling?
Cuckisha ”importing a Mercedes to germany”
@@affee5923 The point must've gone straight over your head, huh?
Loading File if its a joke i understand, otherwise i got wooshed lol
"If you could teach me something today that would be great" THANK YOU OFFICER!! That was an extremely respectable thing to say.
TmfknK not really he was being sarcastic
A more plausible explanation would be that upon hearing an English accent, he felt immediately intimidated by hearing words pronounced properly !!
TmfknK nice to see respect and courtesy shown in both directions . I’m sick and tired of people being rude with a camera. Well done Shmee150
JXRDXN no, he wasn’t! He let him speak and with paperwork accepted his explanation. No sarcasm.
You shouldn't have to explain to the cops what the rules are. They are payed TAX MONEY to know what the rules are.
"If he takes off I'm not catching him".
Until 100 metres down the road when the tank's empty.
cyderman69 its a fucking v6 turbo ecoboost engine so the average american v8 is 10x less fuel efficient...
He was just joking. You can't run from American cops in major cities. Maybe in central America where it's open to speed. 15 meters in and you hit traffic and red lights XD
Why would cops have to catch him? Don't they have radios?
@@vasco7819 it's because they have small fuel tanks
@@vasco7819 this car isn't very fuel efficient
Next time start with: Hi cops I'm Shmee and today I'm going to explain to you how car shipping works.
Then he can get out and quickly describe the paperwork, the rear bonnet and the cops attire.
@@Contact_Info bro lol
I read that in Shmees voice lmao
LOL
Nikola L. LMFAOOOOOOOOOO
You look too innocent to be pulled over
True asf 😂 seriously he is
@@paulwalker1617 ok paul walker
no u
Because he’s white
Vicente C
😌
Bicycle couple: Omg the police pull us over...
No helmets xD
Yeah that was funny. Its like there is a GT behind them, yet they are the ones pulling over. Lol 🤣😂🤣😂
🤣
Haha 😂
they're just moving to the right because it's the law. they don't know that it's the gt being pulled over.
Cop: "I appreciate you pulling over"
Shmee: "My pleasure"
lol
Called respect to each other.
I died 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t think he had a choice
That is how all cops should conduct themselves.. very professional..
Its mutual respect. If you act as Shmee when pulled over you get same response from police force. When you act like an a.s as many people and on top of it you recording it to show it off to the world then what do you expect from police office.
Well Thats why you americans should improve the training of the police and advocate for it.
Sneaker head 1 I’d say about 90% of cops act like this one, contrary to what you see on the news. Trust me, I am a retired deputy of 15 years.
Every cop I ever dealt with has acted like this. Then again. I treat them with respect.
The cops in SF wear cams and follow a strict script implemented by the politicians so that they "don't offend anyone". They can't profile or in anyway suggest race too. Unfortunately if your white and drive a GT it's game on, that said these cops were very cool about it, but I've also driven through that town multiple times with no front plates on my rover and haven't a problem...knock on wood.
“Hands up, right?” Typical Brit reaction to being stopped in the US lol
@AJ Typical American cops pull gun first ask questions later! Can you blame him. Thank goodness he isn’t black, he might have been shot first.
No a sensible reaction to trigger happy and cowardly cops.
cotton cotton yeah my first time getting stopped the dude asked me 5 times if i had drugs in my car, he said i looked suspicious cause i was wearing a black hoodie with the hood up😐
I'd say very sensible when I've seen the type of things Ive seen from USA cops, I even saw a video of a guy passively and peacefully non complying and they sent german shepherds through his car window to chew on his arm, it was totally over the top and barbaric.
Be funny if he got out laid on the ground with his hands behind.
No one:
Absolutely no one:
Shmee: Tells another countries cops about their law
I think it's normal for American Police officers to not understand their own law
damn didn't know import laws pertained to US cops... Jesus Christ....
Well if they're responsible to enforce the law, shouldn't they know it? Is this a concept hard for you to understand?
@@iqbalali5678 I'm sure it's such a rare occurrence that I'm not surprised they wouldn't know about it and I wouldn't expect them to really be trained on it. Most cops probably never run into this situation.
@@iqbalali5678 cause every town in the USA has luxury vehicles with import tags constantly going around.... hurr durr
Its everyday bro, i never thought i would hear shmee say that.
A Cat 😂😂😂Bruuhh I didn't catch till I read this
He has been Americanized already. Didn’t take long.
I came to comment the same thing 😂 its everyday bro
When did he say this?
with that ford gt flow
Officer peña wouldn't be proud of these chill cops
stfu, these are pigs in their prime, not knowing the law but "enforcing" it. stopping people for ANY reason. which means only poor people are being stopped, because if you have money you can take care of your vehicles and make sure your vehicle is not giving the pigs a scent or reason to pull you over.
Med Ilyes Oudhini lol
herbert hans if you don’t have the money to take care of your vehicle you shouldn’t be driving one...
Kakva pena !?
@@zuti071 umm we taking bout the dude from Netflix series NARCOS
Damn. How about one officer speak at a time so there is no confusion...?
its a tactic
Yeah I couldn’t believe that either. If I was the passenger I wouldn’t be engaging at all.
It seems like one cop was talking to the passenger, one cop was talking to Shmee. The camera was better at picking up both conversations simultaneously and mushing them together than you'd be if you were sitting in one of the seats talking to your respective officer.
JH not true. If you look more closely you’ll see (and hear) Shmee trying to reposed to both officers and then asked who he should be explaining everything to.
@Commenter2 no offence but thats foolish, they may treat it as a sign of disrespect and resistance
I love that quote of Henry Ford on the back plate. "If had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses".
i saw that too pat..paused at 9:39 to read! thumbs up!
This is how supercar drivers who drive imported should act. There are a lot of anti-cop youtubers out there, and then there’s Shmee150, setting the gold standard as always. Keep it up, love the content!
Wtf i legit thought the cops that pulled you were in a suv. Everything looks huge compared to the gt 😂
It's so stupidly low
Haha i thought i was the only one thinking that
ikr hahahahaha
Asharab Ahmed I did too! I thought it was the explorer
Yoooo! lol... Had I not seen this comment, I’d never noticed it wasn’t 😅
Hey Tim. I saw your beautiful Ford GT tonight in San Francisco driving along in the Pier district. I came all the way from Australia and you just happened to drive passed me in the USA. Your car looks and sounds incredible. I just wish I could have met you in person. You’re certainly living the dream.
That's what yt comment section is for
Cops pull shmee over.
Shmee: Hi guys Im shmee, hello and welcome back.....
You're so respectful to the police Shmee, without a hint of arrogance nor condescension, like other CZcamsrs I see. ( Ex, dude from PA)
Hugh Jassle AV?
You mean like watching Daily Driven Exotics. Where he intentionally acts like a passive aggressive child to throw emotion into the traffic stop hoping to get more views.
Cobra Black Probably not, most of those Taurus patrol cars are NA V6. Especially from a PD the size of San Francisco. Cost cutting.
If Damon was driving, he's be in handcuffs, a lawsuit would then ensue, and there would be 10 CZcams videos where he'd be professing his innocence and bashing the cops.
@Saxamusprime Yes?
Not gonna lie, a Ford Taurus Interceptor (or pursuit) in a traffic stop with a Ford GT looked awesome.
Ford on Ford crime😋
Tavion Jones 😂😂
Jonathan Wright the sho trim makes 365 hp
It looked like a explorer conspired to the gt
Ford wining lately
It's not crime
4:50 "I am not writing you a ticket , i just want to see your car up close " LOL
"if this guy takes off I'm not catching him" lol
Oddest thing is seeing you in a t shirt. :)
EEUU change people 😂😅
About to say same thing
hey's tuning into a american every single day
Rarer than seeing those plates in a foreign country!
it means he's well Americanized
That color combo on the GT is amazing. Maybe you need to Topaz Skin the Jimny to match...
That would be hilarious
@@Shmee150 do it!! Lol
It would cost similar to do topaz skin the jimny as the car it’s self
Don't ever mention the Jimny again lolol
Lmao
Foreign plates are a daily and regular occurance In Beverly Hills . Having said that , you will usually see plates from the Middle East . Have never seen UK plates .
Pretty Cool 😎 Shmee you get pulled over in a $500k Ford GT over in San Fran for out of country license, but if I 💩 on the sidewalk it’s ok??? what a great State!
hahaha tx Red
Lmaooo I just finished watching American Dystopia so this has me dying 🤣🤣
ReddNeck Buddha i agree state run by bunch of retards you can go to jail for doing an illegal fireworks show on the 4 of July but they released criminals out of jail
Take notes. That's how you handle it when you get pulled over. Mutual respect on both ends. I know quite a few people that could learn from this. Thank you again for coming to the states.
Absolutely true.
However, the colour of his skin might have helped a bit...and a half a million dollar car literally shouts out « I CAN AFFORD LAWYERS »
@@billiebleach7889 coming from a former deputy sheriff myself. I think both civilians and officers can learn from this video. You almost never hear an officer saying teach me something I don't know. And being genuine about it.
Billie Bleach Most cops aren’t racist. Just because a few are, doesn’t mean they all are. Most of the “racist” cops you see on tv shooting “innocent” black people, are justified
ZMC and just like this not all ppl get the same nice response even when your nice to the police
The color of his skin and the price of his car is what handled it lol
Surprised they didn’t notice that a British car should be right hand drive;)
That's a whole world of confusion!
Not sure if many americans know that in the UK cars are RHD.
0Epic0 most ppl prob dont even know RHD cars exist 😂😂😂
It’s a british registered American car being driven around America by a British guy 😄 radical!
hey gnome child
Dude hats off for they way you communicated with the officers, really respectful and no drama, lol hard to find instances like these on the internet.
Warning to future police: If you have to stop Shmee and he takes off, you're not catching him.
qssneaky unless he runs out of fuel.... 🤣
@@lummeltje 😂 😂 😂 bingo fuel
Just search nearest petrol garages lol
Bye guys I'm Shmee
You should have a sticker on the rear with the text: "This is a real licence plate" and a arrow down to it :D
LOL
would ruin the car
@@supersaiyant3989 Just for shits and giggles for a few days :)
Bruh I just commented the same before I saw your comment. Shmee should just tape those documents to the window & point 😂😂
Speed Pots wouldn’t ruin anything lol. It’d be pretty funny actually
Shmee is the only one who do Ford proud on the Ford GT...thank you!
I think Ford will never regret selling him one, Thats for sure!
So glad you documented this to show not every cop is terrible to deal with. Respect gets respect! Thanks shmee!!!
He has the right skin color. This stop would be a lot different if he was black.
I always love how Shmee greets the viewers twice at the beginning. It feels like we are even more welcome to this channel.
Thats how you handle it. Thank you for being so respectful to law enforcement and not trying to provoke them for views! 🙏
Had he been black or mexican he would be shoot.
How cops conduct themselves has to do with area of the country plus the individual cop involved. Skin color matters too economic status. But you can't say if black or Hispanic they would of automatically been shot. That's way to strong. They would of had to be very careful though. Shmee isn't alex choi he doesn't act like a jerk for views
Ryo .Hazuki bringing race into a non racial comment beautiful lmaooo
Shmee should do a rap remix about how he runs low on gas EVERYDAY BRO!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU for showing everyone how you react to getting pulled over!!! You keep your hands on the wheel at 10:00 & 12:00.
When an officer asks you a question, you answer politely & if that officer is asking for any kind of paperwork or ID you tell the officer where it is & then you ASK FOR PERMISSION TO RETRIEVE IT!!!!!! This has gotten me out of 5 speeding tickets regardless if the officer was from the police, Sheriff or Highway patrol...The only exception is any motorcycle cop no matter what department then your screwed!
Everyone was so polite .Im surprised they didn’t have tea and crumpets and a group hug afterwards.
Such a cool video. Cops were great. Shmee was fantastic. Passenger was courteous as well.
Most cops are, if you're not a dick to them, they won't be a dick to you. Schmee could have easily been a dick "oh for fuck's sake, pulled over again, you morons don't know the LAW" and then he'd end up in the back of the cop car and his gt getting hauled off.
That's what most people don't understand.
@@muskokamike127 yeah totally shouldn't expect those who enforce the law to know what they are enforcing you're totally right, we should totally act suprised when we find out we have rights, like lol omg rlly I never knew imma share this on insta lol.
@@herberthans7015 If you expect a street cop to know every law ever written that pertains to transportation, civil law, property law, criminal law, family law, constitutional law, you're daft.
Do you know why judges have law libraries? because even THEY don't know every law ever written ffs. I hope you realize there are lawyers who go to law school for FOUR years and don't know them all? That's why you have criminal attorneys, ones who specialize in property law, others who specialize in civil litigation, and others who specialize in constitutional law.
As for acting surprised when you have rights, you shouldn't be surprised to learn the cops have the same rights as you do. If you want to exercise your right to be a dick, be prepared for the cops to exercise those same rights and be a dick back to you. Know who ends up in police shooting videos? people who are dicks. "I have the right to conceal carry, and to make sudden movements with my hand indicating that I'm going to pull it and I have the RIGHT to point it at anyone I feel threatened by". Yup, and the cop has the same right and he WILL shoot you when you do that.
I lived in SF for a while. I was surprised by the sheer amount of police. Swaggering around with all those gadgets on their belts. If I'm honest I thought they had nothing to do. If something minor happened hundreds of police would swoop in from every angle. Still.. better too many police than not enough I suppose.. depending on your perspective. Here in the UK we could do with a few more.
One of these days I’ll get pulled over in the GT. I am a little surprised none of them have pulled a U turn to come after me just to see the car 😂
Oh I have no doubt it'll happen!
Shmee150 oh it will. That’s why I keep it under 200 😉
How many miles on it already? Tired of it already? Ready to pass it on to me?
Hope you had a good time in my city Shmee! Wish I could have seen you driving around with that amazingly spec'd GT, good lord.
You know Shmee. I want to say thanks for sharing this trip. Glad your having a good time in the states.
Hello Shmee,
It's nice that you were so understanding with the SF Police Department. I'm so happy you're having such a wonderful time in America AND I'm relieved to see that you are now wearing t-shirts or casual shirts. I'm sure you're much more comfortable.
God bless you! Carry on!
💖💕💖
Shmee you are such a cool dude, I have been following your epic USA coast-to-coast tour WELCOME we love your vids!
Honestly, My mind can't comprehend how you can produce such entertaining content so consistently, this tour is compulsive watching.
So happy for you and I hope you're enjoying your trip with the car across the u.s.. keep up the great work I'm enjoying the content.
That yacht club ur at brings back so many memories wow. I did some windsurf training out of there for two weeks with my team like 5 years ago. Good ol days
Great video Shmee we love your videos please keep them up
Very nice to have met you today Shmee. Have a great stay in LA and have fun on the rest of your trip. Too bad I could not see your GT today.
Nice to see a no-drama interaction there. Props for having the paperwork handy, and kudos to the officers for being chill and open to something they weren't aware of.
super unprofessional for both cops to be asking from both sides. Well done Tim sorting them out
Tedward that’s not unprofessional at all you absolute nugget
of course it is. It shows that no one was in charge until Tim requested one speak at a time as if they were disorganized children. And asking the passenger about registration is absurd.
oh STFU.
Keep up the awesome content! I love your merch they are my favorite things to where!
Agree! Shmee merch is the bomb! Its my favorite car merch to wear as well. Buy Shmerch, wear Shmerch, live Shmerch!
2 of the nicest officers ever ! A pleasant experience talking to them ! A credit to the San Francisco police department 👍 Your Ford GT definitely sounds way better with your new exhaust 👍
I like how it’s obvious Shmee has been paying close attention to Stig’s Persian cousin videos😂😂. He acts in almost the same way which is the safest way to deal with the cops to be honest
Well let's be honest here, I don't think Shmee's body or mind is capable of dealing with a pissed off cop.
Anybody catch the dude doing a selfie at 11:30. ... hahaha
If your in San Francisco, you should take a small hike in the Red Wood forest, it also gives you an excuse to drive on the Golden Gate Bridge.
Yes! I would love to see a bit nature filmed by Shmee inbetween other events. But probably his schedule leaves no time to do this.
Also take a trip around the inner city and see all the filth!
@@swtsatir7211 he wouldn't want to go there lol bad news in of itself
Good to see a professional LEO willing to simply dialogue with someone, realize there was zero issue, and ending the encounter quickly. Really need more like them....
You have and sound too polite for any cops to hassle you. And that's one of the best parts of this channel
Cop pulls a Ford GT over and says to Shmee, "do you know why I pulled you over?"
Shmee's response, "Because I let you?"
"Because I ran out of fuel"
At any given time there is about 500,000 Canadian tagged vehicles driving all over the USA
Jeff Vance, good point. And in south Texas a ton of Mexican plates. It’s just the combo Shmee has there. A killer Ford, with British plates. Now that’s unusual.
I had the exact same thing happen to me 17 years ago in California. The bull-headed cop didn't know his own country's laws and when I pointed out that he should investigate via the US Embassy website, failed to do so. Ultimately these kind of Police officers (in any country) are on a power trip. We didn't have camera phones in those days, but glad you posted this to show how Police should brush up on their abilities to enforce laws.
Love the red and blue for the into graphic! Awesome!
the classic sheep cheers at the end :D love it haha! how the cops acted is the way all cops should act.
Cheeeeeeeeeeeaaarsssss lol
11:53 🗣🐐
it's not as rare as you might think...
When you took delivery of your Ford GT, was the fuel light on when you started the vehicle ? 🤣
Pretty much!
Tae
M .Tenorio fun fact most (it not all) cars are shipped with an almost empty tank. They only get filled at the dealership.
@@featherman9 i know i know,just having a little fun 😎
Pretty cool Jason is with you, known about his work for many years. Would love to be there shooting video and taking photos of that Beautiful GT along your trip. Have a blast fellas!
This may become one very popular Ford GT here in the US. Since you are driving it around the whole country.
You taught that Officer something new and he was very humble to learn.
Your GT is eye catching shmee good vid !
So confusing when theres a cop talking in each window.
Officers were on point. Polite and he even said, hey if I can learn something then teach me! Wish all officers were that way. Obviously they always have to be cautious about traffic stops cause they dont know who there are stopping. Kudos to Tim and the officers for being polite and calm during a traffic stop.
Half way through the video it just hit me that it would have been feasible to have picked up the Ford GT in the states, make the coast to coast drive, then off to England. Definitely cool to have you here!
Coolest cop i have ever seen great guy and very respectful, isn't this how all who are bestowed with power should behave??? I would like to nominate this officer POLICEMAN OF THE YEAR!!!
7:16 never would I have ever thought that you would be making a jake Paul reference 😂
Man that exhaust sounds so good Tim!!!
You handled it perfectly. I love when he asked if it was your car.
Shmee should just tape those documents to the window & point 😂😂
lol Not a bad idea.
Put all the documents in plastic sheet protectors in a 1 inch wide binder, then wedge the binder between the seat and the console. Available at Staples.
How much longer will yoy be in the states? Great content as usual my good sir!
A few more weeks to go still
Shmee150 Will you being visiting any other states in that time? Perhaps Utah?
Good officers. I've done many ride-alongs with different officers and these guys were top notch. Only issue I see here is that both officers were asking questions at the same time. Usually when officers ride two-man (2 officers per car) one will take lead and do all talking/interacting and the other will stand back and observe the passenger, or surroundings to ensure officer safety. The second officer here was pretty quick to engage and did not let the initial officer (on Shmee's side) finish his questions...
Love the vlog. Keep rolling my brother!!!
Being pulled over was worth that start up and noise.
Shmee's AD revenue is definitely paying for the fuel on this trip XD
There's not enough ad for that
Good on you Shmee 150 for being so polite. alot of people in the right try and belittle policeman to make them look bad. yr were generous, kind and respectful of the police so well done. congratulations on explaining the situation.
This is what makes you an amazing CZcamsr. The majority of other CZcamsrs would have titled the video like “Ford GT owner owns cops!” or “Ford GT owner tells cops how it is!”
I like your content.fire🔥🔥
The US should provide foreign drivers, in situations such as yourself, with a sticker to put on your plate that tells the police what's going on.
Shmee's been in America what less than 2months I think. And he's already speaking American slang at 7:17 in the vlog he says bro!!!! You sir are a class act!! Big love for you BRO!!! Some of the other car community utube content creators should take note on how its properly done. CHEERS TIM....!!!!!!!!
That is by far the best color combination wow First time seeing your car oh my God it’s gorgeous
"pull over to the curb!!' what curb at that location. Instead of fighting real crime overwhelming the city the police waste their time on this.
I really recommend a British flag 🇬🇧 sticker on the side of the rear plate or number plate holder.
In other parts of the world you need a giant oval GB sticker to indicate its from Great Britain.
Guessing its good video content huh.
I can well imagine not many cars are shipped to the USA and i doubt many people would even know what the white GB sticker means as they dont use it there for anything so they'd still pull him over and question it as Shmee said most arent aware of the laws regarding this.
freepieanchipsgarage you are correct. Also if I remember correctly during Gumball3000 where Shmee(Tim) used his Audi R8 or McLaren(confused abt it) ,he was pulled over & ticked for now having the oval GB sticker on his car.
its been such interesting odissey, greetings from brazil, congrats shmee!
Credit to the force...I’ve seen some awful videos so it’s nice to see polite cops.
Shmee video exposed the police department. Half these guys don’t know half the laws but somehow are cops, loved how you handled it by the way.
You know when he said maybe you can teach me something he usually deals with arseholes thinking they know more than him lol
We need more cops like these guys
Welcome to San Francisco Shmee... I wish I can see you and your Ford GT. I am from SF too.
Have US cops never seen foreign plates before? Common place in Europe.
JustLiveInPeace: Yes....Normally, only Canadian or Mexican plates at most. Why would most US cops be familiar with anything else? It’s a huge country, land-wise, so most people in the US wouldn’t ever encounter a valid European plate.
Well explained, check world map and u will understand it.
@@fredyllanos8972 Quote... *Why would most US cops be familiar with anything else*
oh..I don't...MAYBE FROM WATCHING MOVIES where there are cars where the story doesn't take place in good-ole "Merica" FFS!
@DDAA you don't watch a lot of movies...do you...say for instance, ANY James Bond Franchise? Mission Impossible Franchise? Jason Bourne Franchise???????
@DDAA I've never even seen a Mexican or Canadian plate and i lived in the states for 19 years.
Still hoping for that SF shmeetup! This vidieo was filmed about a 5 min walk from my house!
Both of my brother's are police men. You had a great attitude towards the officers! I am glad you are visiting here in the United States.
Hay Shmee 150 it's great to see u up here in my neck of the woods NORTHERN California ur this close maybe u should head on up to Lake Tahoe if u do u will go right buy where I live up Hwy 80 good luck on the rest of ur tour around America. Much love❤💯
