haha

My point was the fact that they just passed the no-mobile devices law while driving, then I see a law enforcement officer clearly breaking the same law he will be issuing tickets for next month....

i just hate how some officers think they are "above" the law... laws like that are put in place for the safety of ALL drivers, including the police. I wish there were "citizens tickets" so I could pull over all the cops I see talking and texting on their cell phones while driving..

I know the law exempts law enforcement, but I can see that if they are on the phone... CLEARLY they are not texting dispatch when they are on duty.... At least when they are on the phone their eyes or on the road and one hand is still on the wheel.

If I was on duty and one of you guys called my car in. I'd be hella pissed. I'd trace the call and follow you for weeks giving you citations and tickets for everything. You'd never get to work.

Don't mess with long dick of the law!

haha I'm kidding, that's stupid. Be awesome if he crashed(harming nobody) and has to explain why his car is totaled.

Drove "way" behind a boom truck yesterday that didn't have the boom cable secured. The big weight buckle was swinging all over.

I called the company and reported it just as the guy was pulling into their company property.

Thing could have killed someone like a runner on the road that met it on a curve on the road.
