Stanford DPS is back on my case again, this time for real Options

[nebreitling]

so apparently, i've sufficiently pissed off the stanford DPS to the point that they are done with 'warnings'.

some time ago, they issued me a couple warnings for having my car up on ramps and "non-operational". they claimed this constituted and 'abandoned vehicle', and claimed the right to tow.

well, i took the car off ramps and moved it over a spot. problem solved.... until now.

put the car up to install the engine. engine installed, transaxle installed, axles are on the cv joints, everthing good to go except the exhaust (long story).

was gone ONE HOUR this afternoon, and i come back to find a red tow notice on my car! they have to go through a bunch of hassle to tow it apparently, so my 'tow date' is april 14th, but they can do it sooner if they wish. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/bs.gif)

guess they don't want me working on my car here, huh?!

OK...two sections are quoted.... 22523.   (a) No person shall abandon a vehicle upon any highway. ((IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) No person shall abandon a vehicle upon public or private property without the express or implied consent of the owner or person in lawful possession or control of the property. © Any person convicted of a violation of this section shall be punished by a fine of not less than one hundred dollars ($100) and shall provide proof that the costs of removal and disposition of the vehicle have been paid. No part of any fine imposed shall be suspended. The fine may be paid in installments if the court determines that the defendant is unable to pay the entire amount in one payment. (d) Proof that the costs of removal and disposition of the vehicle have been paid shall not be required if proof is provided to the court that the vehicle was stolen prior to abandonment. That proof may consist of a police report or other evidence acceptable to the court. (e) The costs required to be paid for the removal and disposition of any vehicle determined to be abandoned pursuant to Section 22669 shall not exceed those for towing and seven days of storage. This subdivision does not apply if the registered owner or legal owner has completed and returned to the lienholder a "Declaration of Opposition" form within the time specified in Section 22851.8. (f) (1) If a vehicle is abandoned in violation of subdivision ((IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) and is not redeemed after impound, the last registered owner is guilty of an infraction. In addition to any other penalty, the registered owner shall be liable for any deficiency remaining after disposal of the vehicle under Section 3071 or 3072 of the Civil Code or Section 22851.10 of this code. (2) The filing of a report of sale or transfer of the vehicle pursuant to Section 5602, the filing of a vehicle theft report with a law enforcement agency, or the filing of a form or notice with the department pursuant to subdivision ((IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) of Section 4456 or Section 5900 or 5901 relieves the registered owner of liability under this subdivision.

Ya, This is Stanford! Get one of the hot shot law students to help you file a harrasment suit against officer Snowden. That will learn him! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/alfred.gif) Or snow on the roof, or snow up the nose or what ever his name is.

The student could use the experience for a class credit!
