Having grown up with a policeman for a father and wondering nightly if he would make it home or not.. I can tell you it's a thankless job with little pay for the most part protecting people who hate you. To the police officers on 3WW.. Thank you.

it is, you guys are missing my point completely, im not saying in any way shape or form that i hate cops or what they do to protect people. I did say that i dont like when they have to be pricks to people that are just trying to have fun, when they have nothing exciting going on they patrol for people that ride atcs atvs and dirtbikes, and they tend to try to give you tickets for nothing
i know what you mean, my brother got halo headlights for his bmw and the cop pulled him over, and said you need to get rid of those headlights, no reason why? then up the road theres a cop (really nice guy) and he said yes thee illegal but most cops wouldnt pull you over for it, because he/she would have to go thru hundreds of pages to see what that fine would even be for

theres 3 cops that are mainly in this town both of them are nice people, but when they get bored, or have nothing better to do they try to bust you
There's nothin they can do if yer doin it all right..... If yer not, then it's you who's wrong.
as many have said there are some good cops but quite a few are crooked and enjoy being d!@k$. lets be honest here they signed up to carry a gun and a badge in the wild west. the problem we are discussing here is some have god complexes and are jerks on purpose.
look at these guys you see on tv and internet that would rather stop and cuss out a driver for speeding to hospital instead of giving an escort when the passenger is dying.
how about the crooked ones that recently got caught here in chicago for running a drug ring. literally taking the drugs they confiscate and selling it.
i had to go to traffic school once and the lady proudly let us know that though its illegal the local and county police departments give officers quotas to hit giving tickets. not monthly but quarterly she went on to tell us. you can tell when its going on too and you can tell the cops that spent all month in the doughnut shop and have to rush the last few days.
i once got pulled over for going into turn lane too early and crossed yellow line before turn lane.
also got pulled over once drunk and underage doing 65 in a 35. cop did not have jurisdiction there but could have called county in. was right down street from house, he checked my liscense and paperwork and sent me home. stupid me yelled to him " your the coolest f#(%in' cop i ever met man"
it all depends on who you get and the day they have had
and as comedian gabriel iglesias says if you can make the officer laugh you have a chance
thanks to you officer who are kind and courteous, for what you do. to the rest of you god complex jerks i hope you change your ways and i dont hope the best for you, just remember karma's a mother f'er

Having had a family member killed by a drunk driver, that cop did you and the public a huge disservice by not arresting you for it.
trike savior has summed it up
oh and a little advice to anyone on here about getting in an accident while intoxicated. it worked for a friend. was drunk driving and stopped at a light when another car hit him. they immediately took off and he couldnt get their plate. his car was immobilized by accident. he took off on foot and left the car. in illinois at least, leaving the scene of an accident is far cheaper and better looking on your record than a DUI. as long as they dont find you with the vehicle and any amount of time has passed they cannot prove you were under the influence when it happened. any lawyer can get you off of it and if you can make it to morning without them finding you, you wont need a lawyer. you will still be charged with things and have to post bail for charges but its about a 1/4 of the 15,000 it costs to get your liscense back these days. and most jobs do background checks these days and DUI is a red flag where leaving scene of accident is not

sorry for your family member dcreel. i know its cliche but wasnt drunk, could have passed the sobriety tests but either way was underage. ive been drunk to the point where i know i should not have driven, like the good old holding one hand over one eye to make the doubles go away. i lost a friend to drunk driving as well and it changed me quite a bit. i dont do that any more. but there is still a far cry from a beer an hour (legal), toing away and getting behind wheel. weve seen these people on tv who cant walk and fall over during the tests, i agree they need off the road.
but at the same time lets be honest about what they are doing to the common people with what it takes to get liscense back. its ridiculous what you have to go through and the money it costs. and the people that make these laws are the ones that do not have to abide by them. all they have to say is their position or who they know and they drive away scott free.
police extend favors to all kinds of people. my friends dad is a lawyer and my friends mom got pulled over one day and didnt have her liscense on her. cop followed her to house and came in and said "theres a cop outside, i got pulled over". his dad goes out and talks to the cop (we went out too) cop says oh well if she said her husband was a lawyer i would not have bothered her
face it our system is flawed these days, keeps the poor, poor and the rich rich.
