TOMsGPTurbo Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Re: article, that's his side of the story, we can't make a judgement unless we know all the facts, let's say what he said is true, then I believe it's unfair. At the end of the day it really depends on what kind of cop you get (and how many), if you're not a smartarse, and genuinely believe you're not in the wrong, take what the officer is saying on board whilst expressing your side of the story in a dignified manner. If the cop is in a good mood and is a decent type, you'll get a slap on the wrist, they want to avoid work, trust me. On the other hand, you may get rookie who wants the experience and is out to impress his OIC / partner, or worse the 'hot fuzz' cop and you argue until the cows come home and get nowhere, and by all means take it further if you think you didn't do anything wrong. I've seen cops also get done for traffic infringements which they can't get out of no matter how hard they try. So there isn't a way out of it even if you're sworn in. Laws apply to everyone you just need some common sense, decent people skills, and most importantly good luck! If you take it further, do some research on understanding the relevant legislation & regulation and the appeal process Edited July 26, 2011 by TOMsGPTurbo Quote
