Up until I was about 7...my mother always told us to NEVER stand up in the car, cuz a cop would pull us over...I thought that they had some sort of x-ray goggles (explains constant sunglasses) that they could see through cars and see if you were standing up...so I ALWAYS made sure I never stood up in the car......
