It's funny even now.

It was just SO amazed at his attitude. I was truly just trying to help him understand it is a 1990 VW Diesel it smokes when it's under power..

Unfortunately, cops like that are the only ones people remember.  :roll:

I get so PO'd when people paint all police with the brush of the powermad or just plain stupid.

taken from utah admin code R307-305-3

Unfortunately you are correct.

In my case however I don't nor do I think ALL cops are stupid, this guy however needs to brush up on his laws before he goes writing tickets his badge cant back up.

I agree. I have a lot of respect for police and the work they do. I certainly would not want to do it. Some of them are idiots, but that's the same as any occupation.

you can tell the fresh cops from the old ones.   the fresh ones seem like they have something they need to prove, whereas the older wiser ones are more easy going, but will still give you the ticket  :lol:

9 times out of 10 if they see some young punk acting like a retard, they are definitely going to 'punish' him.  :lol:

one thing i dont like though is how some women get off so easy.  yet they are the most at risk due to certain 'instabilities'.  so much for equality  :roll:  :lol:
