This is a good clip to watch, if you like to speed.

I watched the entire clip.
If I ever end up down at the station in a small room in a interview with a cop I will remember to not say a word !!!!

 

If I pull you over for speeding, and you refuse to answer any questions, you are DEFINITLY getting a ticket.

 

Ahhh, I see - you're one of those kinda pigs!!!

 

yes he is, and if I pull you over for speeding, then you were speeding, cause I am an old cop, and don't like to be bothered..........and you are getting a ticket if your attitude is as follows: I wasn't speeding, don't you have something better to do, why aren't you chasing criminals instead of harassing us citizens, you cops are all alike....and my answer is....yes we are.....have a good day....

interviews are fun, sometimes....I have a short story, Sunday I came into work, we had 1 in the holding cell waiting for a blood draw warrant to be served...he was complaining about his hand being numb from the arresting officer's cuffs being put on too tight...I was asking him as I examined his fingers if he could feel me touching him...he said, no...I asked if the fingers on his other hand were numb too and pointed to his index finger...he physically ran his fingers up and down the opposite hands fingers saying he couldn't feel anything...seemed they were working just fine to me....radial nerve can temporarily cause numbness in the hand...

 

FYI , you do not call a policeman a pig.. Lee IS a good dude

 

I agree 100%
I have met CALL911 and he is a very respectable guy.
I assume he is also a respectable police officer.
I know some are not but a "pig" is not a name for any cop IMO.

 

I have severe respect for any and all law enforcement figures.

Just imagine what kind of people you have to deal with on a day to day basis. Then, you have the idiots who think they know something about the law and threaten to sue. Not to mention they put their lives on the line for these people and for us.

God, I'd kill myself.

 

 

Very Nice!! What kind od mods are in this PD Cruiser??

 

So CALL911, how much over would someone have to be speeding for a normal cop to pull them over? Oh yeah, and what will these new Chargers do?

 

Both videos were interesting. Watch the one of the officer and the one of the lawyer).

I did have one experience where that advice (don't talk) was good advice.

First off, I support several levels of law enforcement and find everyone I've dealt with to be fine people committed to their work. So don't take my comments as a slight to these people. If you abide by the law and treat them like people which they are, you will never have a problem.

My story... I was in a parking garage - was walking to my car. I was within sight of it when a guy walks up to the car next to mine, whips open the door and bounces it off the side of my car. I mean really whacked it good. I really got the feeling he did it on purpose because it wasn't a light accidental tap, it was a very aggressive whack.

I kept my cool (well externally - I was boiling inside) and walked quietly to my car, exactly imitated his behavior and returned the favor, hammering the side of his car with the edge of my door.. Of course, he was sitting inside his car and saw me do it.

He erupted. Fair enough. I could have handled it any number of ways but I was a little younger then, a little pissed off, and figured if he thought what he did was OK, he wouldn't mind it someone did it to him... Yeah, well it sounded good in my head at the time...

Anyway, the thing I didn't mention was that we were in the parking garage at the county courthouse and just about every other car belonged to a lawyer or a detective or some other such person. I am pretty sure this guy was a lawyer.

Anyway, as he's going ape-spit, I just quietly put the car in gear, quietly drove out of the garage, slowly paid at the kiosk, and pulled out to the street. Meanwhile the guy is going ballistic and goes running to the nearest cop he can find. OK, fair enough.

So rather than get chased down, I just parked by the curb right outside the garage and sat. I see them talking. They obviously knew each other. Eventually the officer comes over and gives me the "License and Registration/Proof of Insurance" drill. Then he says something that just about made me laugh.

"Son, if you don't tell me what happened in there, I'm going to have to arrest you, impound your car, and put you in lock up. This is your one and only chance to fess up or else...".

Uh, sorry, I don't think so... I just looked him straight in the eye and said "I don't have anything to tell you. Everything is just fine by me. I don't have any problems."

The officer looked at the guy (who by now has a big vein on his forehead and a nice chunk out of his door) and says "I'm sorry Bob, there's nothing I can do - he's not telling me anything that I can use to charge him, and all I have is what you told me. I didn't see anything and there isn't anything I can do. To me he says "Good day sir." and I drove away.

Of course I was a jerk. I have done a lot of growing up since then. And yes, there are probably lots of other ways to get justice than an "eye for an eye". At the time it was very satisfying. I wouldn't do that again.

But the really incredible thing was the ruse the officer tried on me. I suspect if I had said anything at all, it would have been all over.

When I got stopped for speeding a long time ago, I just gave over my papers, he told me why he stopped me, I didn't say anything in response but treated him with respect and without an attitude. I was over the limit and the ticket was mine. But I didn't give out any info.

Keep your corn hole shut!

 

Luckerly we all know PIG stands for:
P rofessional
I ntegrity, and
G uts

Traits all good officers should have.

Have a nice day.

 

Wow, and I like that part where he said if the speed limit is 55 and you are doing 55, you will get rear ended. I sometimes believe that is so true and is the reason I always drive 5 to 9 mph over the limit. Good video and thanks!

 

Don't write an apology letter either.....

It's a stock 5.7 hemi police package limited to 150 mph (I think).
As far as the other question. It depends. Every officer is different and every department is different. Some dept. have quotas, others do not. I am a DUI enforcement officer and use speeding as a tool to investigate a possible impaired driver. I write very few tickets. You have to be doing something really stupid. The way I see it, if I'm writing you a ticket for doing 10 over, an impaired driver has driven past and i"m not doing my job. 17,000 persons are killed in DUI crashes every year.

I will be running this car at the MADD test and tune this sat. Watch out Brad!

 

Well done Sir. I've had personal issues with this matter and wish people just would realize what they could possibly do.

 

Thanks. By the way, thats 17,000 in the U.S. alone!
