When to notify probation?
So yeah another inncedent tonight. Last night my mom called the cops due to kids breaking into cars at my neighbors house. Im worried someone might try mine next. But tonight im dropping off my friend doing nothing illegal just driving and we get pulled over because my tint and rims looks suspicious. Yada Yada the police are looking for 2 black males who are commiting robberies me and my other white friend obviously dont fit the catergory. The police officers say ok be on your way have a safe night. Do i tell probation about this next time i meet. It seems pointless to even mention something liek that but im not sure i wanna try to do the right thing here.

Do the terms of your probation require you to report any encounter with the police? Did the police run your ID's?

Yeah they say to notify them. But that was only the first lady who told me that basically she was new and follows things by the book. I dont have her again I dont even have a set P.O. yet so i dont know who to report too. As for the Id. The officer took my drivers license,registration and insurance. Looked at it in his car drove up next to me and said okay be safe.

There doesn't seem to be any downside from disclosure, unless the only reason you would be in that neighborhood would be for illegal activity such as a drug buy. You got stopped by pure bad luck, and were immediately released when they determined that you weren't their target. On the other hand, as you have stated, if you fail to disclose it's a violation of your probation.

yeah it cant hurt right. Its not even a bad area at all if anything its one of the better areas overall of the location I live in. The only reason i have trouble with this is like im nervous ya know i feel like telling them i got pulled over is gonna make them think im a bad kid. When i wasnt doing anything wrong. Im just afraid that this would make them become stricter on me
