If a cop catches you in your car doing something your not supposed to do and let you off, can they report you?

Question

im 17 and i was with a 17 year old girl, and a cop caught us in the act, and he took our licenses and scanned them, but gave them back to us and let us go, would he call our parents or put it on our records?

Answer 1

Something like that happened to me a few years back...if he did he would have told you.

Answer 2

Keep worrying about it That's what he wants you to do!

Answer 3

He might call your parents.  Be glad he didn't arrest you.  I hope you used protection.

Answer 4

you would have known by now .... your mom would have killed you !

Answer 5

I'm not a cop, but I thought they had to issue something formally for it to go on your record. If he didn't issue a ticket or warning, then I think you're safe.

But learn from your experience and don't be careless about s*x or anything else. If it's bad enough, it could haunt you the rest of your life on your record.

Answer 6

maybe it's a warning, they make a "note", and if you fall again in the same situation, you go to jail.

Answer 7

What is the age of consent in your state? If it is 16, which is pretty common, you would be guilty of poor place choice, but what you were actually doing was not illegal.

If you aren't cited, it didn't happen.

Sounds like you like this girl. That being the case, find a better place than the back seat, okay? You've already discovered the biggest problem with it....

Good luck!
