Clean as a whistle record. He sees this when he scans my license and stuff, yet calls for backup AND does a thorough search of me and my car.
This ****ing normal? Next time I'm making sure they don't search me without probable cause.

I hear you man. Cops like harassing young guys. When I was 17 some ass pulled me over for "an irregular lane change", whatever the hell that means, and did the exact same thing to me that you're describing. Grilled me about weapons and drugs for no reason, searched my car, gave me a super hard time about the set of tools that I had in the trunk (normal car repair stuff), then eventually just let me go once his little power trip was satisfied. I actually had similar encounters with cops on a couple of occasions. It's total bullsh
it but the good news is they seem to stop harassing you once you get above, say, your mid-20s.
