Boy someone don't like cops. Too bad. If you look at most departments they are broken down into traffic and crimes for small departments. Larger ones may have a drug task force, homicide division and so on. A cop assigned to traffic is going to do that unless he stumbles into something. Like a DUI, warrant, ECT. In fact about the only time they are not doing traffic is if they are called on to back another officer up. Traffic is what they were assigned to do. Now think about it. What would the roads be like if the only time you saw a cop was when they were responding to an accident? Everyone would be speeding and running stop signs. Accidents would go up along with deaths. Then you would be on here crying about the cops not doing their jobs.

I saw an old drunk get a DUI on a riding mower. He'd lost his license for multiple DUIs and just couldn't stand the idea of walking 4 blocks to the local VFW bar. I thought then as I do know. It was funny! He got what he had coming to him.

As to your list, how was the cop to know that woman was only going 2 blocks. She deserved the ticket. So did the guys on the tractor and golf car. We have a small local town here and people drive their carts to the bar thinking they can't get a DUI. OH well! I'll go with some of the others here, what did the guy who hit the dog have going on? Warrant? DUI? Deliberate act? The only unjustified ticket I've seen in years was a kid in town who pulled into the DQ parking lot, took off his seat belt, then thought he's better put in gas before he blew his money at DQ. So going directly from one parking lot to another without going onto a street pulled up to a C store gas pump where the cop pulled in and wrote him a ticket. Kid fought it and won and the cop is long gone and was last reported working as a carpenter.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
