The cop smiled like he knew i wasn't going to budge and told me to drive safe. They literally asked me one question and that was the end of it. This chief was probably being a dick & the other cops used their power to fuck with him. Cops are more annoying than kids when that don't get their own way.

And your comment does nothing to address the thought that perhaps if you always cry racism people get sick of that shit and there may be backlash to it coming? Here's a great example for you. I'm on scene of a wreck at work. I have a lady baby sitting kids involved. It's a fender bender without any real injuries but if you want to go to the hospital I need to know because the person in the other car wants to go to the hospital. I attend to the other person and say I'll be back in a few let me know if you want to go to. 10 minutes later she still can't make a decision, another 5 minutes still no decision. Now I am supposed to be off scene in 10 and I also need to know if I can take everyone in 1 ambulance or if I need to get more because we're going to different hospitals. If you don't to go I have paper work you need to sign stating I offered and you refused, now somehow, I am a racist because I am not waiting another 5 minutes (after giving her an additional 10)for her to make up her mind. This is 1 example of many of what has become a common occurrence. Now, if you keep telling someone with good intentions they are racist do you expect this person to never grow contempt for you? Everything is not racism.

    20 hire 200 + Retired senior cops as investors....12 special investigators.
    16 Prosecuteds.
    The board would have 4 civilians at large. 4 cops with 7 + years of experience
    12 doctors to determine ADA accommodations, and medical advice
    12 psychology experts to make reviews and suggest....
    The board would investigate every bad cops Actions based on citizens complaints....
    The office, department or agency could do their on review as well. But the state board would have the final authority as to a revocation of certification or license of the peace officer.....suspension with or without pay, termination, retraining, repremands......I'll regardless of union contracts.
    Guess what it failed every time....

    They need to arrest the person who followed him for wasting law enforcements time. Imagine calling the police and tattling on someone then leaving before the police even get there. 😅

    That police dept needs to be investigated I was a law enforcement officer and if there is no complainant and there is no need to investigate. The first person you speak with is the complainant but they are not there and won't answer the call back from dispatch.

      Driving slow in the fast lane is obstructing traffic. Something this hot head didn't learn in traffic school- which is where he should be instead if making bogus 911 calls then leaving the scene..
      FYI this law us Strictly Enforced on decent highways like the Autobonn.
      No trucks in the fast lane at 120 KPH+..Or in America, semi's blocking/ obstructing traffic with thier " dueling speed limiters" with other trucks in the slow lane,holding them governed to 66-72 MPH, just makes drivers nuts...
      For " safety's sake ", speedlimiters on semi's drive people to roadrage ..
