driving home from getting dinner,in my dodge shadow, bout 20 feet from my driveway and bike cops pull me over because third , auxilliary , brakelight is out. first they zoomed up on me and acted like they were going to pass on both sides- like some little gangbangers are doin these days ( no way to tell its a cop bike in the rearview ) then pull me over just to let me know the brake lights out.then he figures he may as well run my id while hes at it- turns out the $135.00 i just paid DMV hasnt cleared and they get back im driving on suspended license. no idea how it works in other areas but here this is a officer discretion call. so the prick has my car towed , says its just for overnight and you can get it out in mornin, oh yeah , plus youll have to pay a $400.00 fee. screw that only paid that much for the whole car and the trans is going out on it anyways ( no 3rd or reverse)
on my street alone in last 5 days ive seen about 12-15 people getting pulled over for no reason or for minimal reasons - all by the motorcycle cops in this police district what REALLY pissed me off tho is them acting agressive while riding behind me, acting like they were gonna buzz past me on both sides , THEN pulling me over for a fix it ticket and instead of just doing what he said he was doing , which was in his words " i just pulled you over to let you know your third brake light was out so you could get it fixed" he pulls this shit ..ok mad rant off now heheh so basically tomorrow or friday im filing a complaint against the officer, the police dept and possibly the city as well because all 3 are inter-involved in this type of action, which constitutes harassment by the police dept. basically im going after this pissants badge, would love to meet up with this little POS in a dark alley sometime ............................ |

Appears no cookie jar here. First the poster says the check has not cleared yet, implication is he mailed it. The law does allow him to drive while it is being processed, just as long as the payment was postmarked by the due date. The cop should know this.
The cops tell him he was only going to warn him about the rear light, jee whiz, thank cop you're the greatest. However he impounds his car for a technicallity that he should know is legal. Gee whiz you suck you pig! $400 plus i lost me car for the day. i suppose that might mean time off work, getting a ride to the impound yard etc...... After it is all said and done, even a middle class earner is out a couple days pay (after taxes), if your less affluent that $400 may make rent late. This was a real questionable tickect, and the impounding of the vehicle is crazy. He should have wrote a ticket if he was told that the lisence had just expired,and that the check was mailed. The ticket would be voided upon proof of payment in say a month. That's how it should have worked. And this was result of a crackdown on gang crime??? Guess like the other recent case on the 914 Club was all about a crackdown on school yard shootings. We all pay for these uncounstitutional infringements on our Rights. (Impounding his car with out Due Process) That said, some cops are good at stopping crime, and unsafe drivers, With current gun control laws, we would have real crime probelms without cops, now then again, if more folks were armed, oh never mind. Yeah i give cops a break when they do stuff right, but when this shit happens it likely is a bad cop involved. (and a maybe bad higher ups on the force/City council) |
