It's always the policemen against the citizens' words. People above law always get away (IMHO)
Years ago an off duty cop tried to beat the red light - made a left turn and hit both of my parents. The off duty cop blamed my parents for not looking both ways before crossing the street. RME!!

BTW, whats with all the anti-police threads lately? I'm starting to enjoy them but it is getting a little old. I've been here at AD for awhile and many people here know me and the kind of person I am. I do take the attacks somewhat personally (Yeah Mookie...I do take it personally when I come to AD and its nothing but you stirring crap with me....I guess that means that you are winning...feel good?).
Ha..ha..ha..

You are totally wrong. My friend told me why does the cop always park in general area. I told him that he probably do the paperworks. Or he has to meet the traffic violation quota or risk his career while waiting for the moving vehicles.

What made you think I am trying to win? I dont think so.

If you are a truly cop, see me and I will give you a fresh donut.

No body is so perfectly...

It's not that Taylor, It just that whenever there a problem like when two guys were arguing in a restaurant, the cops just sit there and eat their lunch instead of getting up and handle the situation, What about when someone was speeding on the highway and two cops just sitting in their vehicles talking to each others. How long are they on breaks, How many breaks do they take?

Thank you! I knew you'll see my point and how I felt about that.

Nope, the cops have right to be on break. Does any doctor assist person choking or having heartache while having dinner? The answer is that they do not have to save their lives...

They have done it, I've seen an off-duty doctor ran to help this fallen person who got hit by a vehicle while walking across the street in the rain. I've also seen a nurse went over to a pregnant woman at the airport and asked her questions when she was having pains, she was only 5 months pregnant. If they see someone in needs they go their way helping them out. They are proud of what they do, That's why they love their job to help save lives.

The cops are obligate to use sirens when there're emergencies, same as ambulance, firemen, emergency doctor... We (drivers) are obligate to move to let car with sirens free to drive speed... I will pay penalty fine if I didn't move and let car with sirens free to drive through...

I already scolded to the police officer for curving too fast by my home when I crossed with my 4 years old son. What did he do when he saw my ? Nothing....
I can understand how scary you are.

Simple is take police car number and write down what's time and which road the police drive and then report city police department.

Do you mean your parent are walker? If yes, but it's off duty cop's fault, not your parents... The drivers must watch people walking before they drive.... not blame walkers.

*sigh*

It was happened to me at 3 years ago... My car was parked on left side far from "my ex-friend" neighbor with my friends and ex-friend after women weekends outing. I got fax from "my ex-friend" on next day telling me that their neighbor's car was damaged and told me that they gave their neighbor my home address. I was mad with them because they gave them my address without get permission from me. Oh Well, they called my local police to have a look at my car. They did but no result of damaged on my car and inform "my ex friend"'s local police station but my local police came on other day telling me that I should drive my car to "my ex friend"'s local police station to have a look... I told my local police that no problem, I drive there on next day. We found out that the neighbor of "my ex-friend" is POLICE...

I thought police would be honest because there're no damage on my car to compare with his severe damage car. His colleagues took pictures of our cars and measured etc. etc. One month later after that I received a result from "my ex friend"'s local police to confirm me that I'm responsible of "hit and run". Neighbor file a lawsuit against me... I'm an innoncent... I cried and cried after learn from police statement that the neighbor have my ex-friend as withness which it affect our friendship total... I has to go to lawyer....

My insurance for legal family protection do not cover for me because of "hit and run" is an illegal. It mean that I have to pay lawyer myself... It's scary because German strict law about "hit and run"... They are supposed to ban my drive liiescne for 6 months and pay high penatly... Lucky is my lawyer fought to have my driving liescne to keep... They agreed at last to not remove my driving liescne and no fine penalty but get my car insurance to cover his damage car... I have to pay everything and plus high car insurance and cancel our holiday plans... Thanks my ex-friend. My lawyer said that she can't do anything because police work together to protect each other... but I should be glad to keep driving liecsne... Neighbor drop his lawsuit against me but want my insurance to cover the cost of his damage car... My Lawyer advised me to agree to this... (true *sigh*).. It's hard for me to forgive my ex-friend after what they have done to me to help their neighbor which they know he's police.... They thought their neighbor would fax me with question and want to look our car but it's not what my ex-friend thought. Their neighbor only want our insurance to cover his damage car... They won't want to do anything with their neighbor and blame them to affect their friendship with us. We haven't speak them for 3 years now... I would forgive them one day but how long, I don't know...

Hon, don't expect all cops to be honest, and I'm not surprise that a cop got away with it....

I'm sorry to hear what happened to your car....

Yes, they were walking home from a restaurant around the corner from their house. It was on a mother's day.

Ok I talked to my ex boyfriend who is a police officer, He said that yes, The cops are supposed to protect and serve, in fact they are supposed to protect all citizens to the safely and lives of all people when they are in dangerous. If they get a call and a report is made that someone broke in the house, The police will rush over right away and will do anything to get the victims out of the house first before the crazed gunman.


And about high-speed chases, The police would want to get the vehicle that is on a high-speed chases off the roads for the safely of all people. Sometimes things gone bad when the driver ran into walk-way people and crashed into someone's mail box or house or damaged other vehicles. They want to get this guy off the street and throw in jail.

Yeah, I was going to report but I didn't.

I really do not need to contact the police department since the police chief or commander only slaps the enfored officer's hand. Anybody must report to the elected commissioners or mayor office that would causes the big noise directly to the entire police department.

Liebling,

You should have reported the damaged car to the local police quicker than your ex-friend's neighbor. It would save your neck rather than spending money on your lawyer's fee. If you do not have auto full coverage insurance, do not contact your insurance firm. You may have to pay more insurance fee soon. Best thing to do before calling your insurance company is to wait for your local police to inform you that it would be determined about hit-and-run case or another.

It is not your fault. If it were me, oh well, I don't need to contact the local police. I will keep in mind that I must contact the local police in order to protect my reputation. I can easily replace the auto part since it is much cheaper than paying the increased high premium insurance rate after informing the insurance company.
