I went out to eat with my gf, I was driving 50 on local. He appeared suddenly behind me so I slowed down lil bit. He followed me like half way to my house. I still don't know why he didn't pull me over ? It was midnight tho. Any idea ?

Maybe b/c he didn't have a reason to pull you over? I know cops around here seem like they'll follow you for a bit. Maybe they're heading in the same direction... but most likely they're running your plates and/or waiting for a reason to pull you over. It was midnight on a Friday...

There is one time at around 12am. I was going 50mph on 35mph. Two cops cars raced in front of me and blocked my way. They stopped on the street and made their car formed like an arrow. I was scared as hell because i didnt have my permit yet. after awhile they didnt even come out and just left. lol

Yea, this happen to me also. I was driving to work around 4 PM and a motorcycle cop followed me all the way from the highway to my workplace. I made a shortcut through some department stores, he was still right behind me. He followed me for like 5 minutes. Finally i turned in my work place and he left. I was wondering is he going to pull me over or what was the deal. I was following speed limit so i didnt know why he was following me all the way there... guess he just wanna check out my "a*ss" haha

I did roll down my windows since I was afraid of a ticket for tint. Maybe I look kinda young to the cop or maybe it's because of my "racingline" sticker on my car lol.

Cops follow to see if the person gets paranoid or panics so they would drive faster, do weird maneuvers, try to avoid the cop, act suspicious, etc. As long as you drive normal like a normal person, you're fine. Happened to me countless times.
