Funniest thing I've seen all week, a guy impersonating a traffic camera doesn't realize he's annoyed the cops, til they back up to nab him

one town in Texas has busted Willie Nelson, Armie Hammer, Snoop Dogg, and Fiona Apple for having weed on their tour busses. Here is a detour mapped out to avoid it

RHIP (Rank Has It's Privileges/parking) also know as those who make or enforce laws are sometimes breaking the laws they've made or vowed to enforce.

In this next short video, a 12-year-old named Jeremy approaches a Las Vegas Metro motorcycle cop who has illegally parked his motorcycle on a sidewalk, apparently in order to get a soft drink. The young man politely asks the cop if he had any emergency reason to park, and then requests his badge number. The cop refuses to answer either question, and asks Jeremy if he is a lawyer. Jeremy reiterates his request for a badge number. The cop continues to refuse, and eventually drives off. Perhaps the officer can be identified through this footage and reported to a superior who can work with him to correct his misunderstandings about his relationship to the law and his obligations to the public.

San Diego County Sherriff's Dept grows the "Take your police vehicle home program" gee, thanks for wasting tax payer dollars to cover your commuting gas bill

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 9:28 PM

about one in six drive home the govt vehicle.

About 90 of the one in six, if I read that correctly, don't even live in the San Diego county.

the article is at http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/mar/26/tp-sheriff-grows-take-home-auto-program/

Why would they? They get to drive a govt vehicle home, they get the gas for free, and expense the entire commute.

http://www.utsandiego.com/video/play/53813/ for a video recap of the article

Must be nice to be driving a cop car, not even a chance of getting a ticket, and not have to think about how much driving costs you... because it doesn't. And your private vehicle? Less miles, less use, less insurance costs to you.

Nice "benefit" perk

if you tangle with a cop, have your cell phone recording it to use in a court of law. You KNOW that the cop isn't going to tell the truth about his actions, especially this jackass. Resigned AFTER being busted out of state, acting the ass. Compliments to the citizen!

to explain the situation before watching the video (skip the first minute) the driving takes plave in North Carolina, the asshole in the police car is a South Carolina sheriff, out of state, and holding up taffic but even worse, not acting professionally when the videographer waits til the freeway opens up from 2 lanes to 3, hits the right hand new lane to get around the cop in the leftmost lane, the suv being a good boy in the right lane... so once around the traffic block caused by the cop and the suv that didn't want any problems, the jackass out of state sherriff instead of using a radio or cell phone to call locals to notify them of speeding past the posted limit videographer, pulls all the way around the guy, and hits his brakes. Causes a collision.

so always have your cell phone, or all cell phones in the car on video recording when tangling with cops. You already know they don't follow the laws, often break them, will arrest you in a flick of the eye, and then lie about their unprofessional behavior. You see, they break laws, act like ass hats, and then realize that they have to protect themselves from your accusations in order to keep their high paying jobs, and save their pension providing career. You have any idea how motivated that makes them to not allow you to show their illegal behavior?

She doesn't post many car photos anymore, but among the multitude of humor posts she's done lately are these damn good funny ones

in the above, it's the handle she ( a blond who isn't aware she is perpetuating the stereotype of) has in her hand that makes it comical

looks like an attempt at a motorcycle based on the "I Robot" movie cars

Not really in the spirit of "Protect and Serve", I think this could easily be mistaken for sneaky and rotten

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 10:09 PM

I actually do spot cops like this, it's rare to get to photograph them like this though.

But I circled back to get a shot from across the intersection, to give him a chance at redemption if he wasn't sitting to snipe the oncoming traffic, but that is exactly what he's doing. Big surprise right? Is there anything impossible about a cop hanging out where they can be seen?

Finally, a cop that isn't hiding in the shadows. One that is being bold enough to let the speeders and stop light runners know he's there.

So for the first time in 6 years of posting photos of police behaving badly, I can applaud the motorcycle cop here for standing out from the worst behaving cops you'll hear about, the vast majority that I've photographed parking in the streets, not the parking spots, smoking cigars in their cop car at a gas pump, parking against the traffic pattern, radar gunning from the shade where they are hard to see, and all the rest.

What will a corrupt city government do to get your money in fines? Paint a handicap parking around your car, then tow your car, fine you, and get a cut of the towing and impound fines. Nice huh?

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 6:31 PM

thanks Steve for the story! (he wanted me to see the cool tow truck (side forks that allow a narrow street parallel parked car to get hoisted onto the flatbed while parked beside it in traffic))

Here is the great part, it was all captured on a security camera across the street, and the car owner was smart enough to check for that. She's avoided the fines (total $365 USD) got her car back, an apology from the mayor, and publicly (using facebook) exposed this scam.

Does making a contribution to a Police association and getting a sticker in your back window keep the police from giving you a ticket for speeding?

Some photos remind me of others.... the NYPD airplane at Bennett Field reminded me of the SDFD Aerial Truck

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 7:51 PM

Top photo from http://www.scoutingny.com/ I'm pretty sure

maybe you see why. The bottom photo is from the Clairemont Fire Department wall of interesting photos http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/09/betcha-never-heard-of-aerial-truck.html and you can see that it's an "Aerial Truck" and I didn't make that up... and that has been posted for over a year and I've never had a comment about the term Aerial Truck yet. I still think it's pretty odd.

Here's another reason Autoblog is one of the best in this vehicle coverage business, the Jeep that almost made it into the US over the border, but got high centered on the fence (we need a higher fence and a moat. Or just a single Marine. (If you want results that is)

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 11:28 PM

in this photo provided by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, a silver Jeep Cherokee that suspected smugglers were attempting to drive over the U.S.-Mexico border fence is stuck at the top of a makeshift ramp early Wednesday, Oct. 31, 2012 near Yuma, Ariz. U.S. Border Patrol agents from the Yuma Station seized both the ramps and the vehicle, which stalled at the top of the ramp after it became high centered. The fence is approximately 14 feet high where the would-be smugglers attempted to illegally drive across the border. The two suspects fled into Mexico when the agents arrived at the scene.

make sure your car insurance company insures your HID headlights, especially if you own a Porsche

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 11:07 PM

It is believed that the headlights make for ideal lighting solutions when growing marijuana indoors. The high-intensity discharge bulbs give off more heat and require much less power than standard grow lamps, yet, critically, they offer the right quality of light and heat. According to De Telegraaf, as many as 20 Porsches fell victim to this trend, resulting in thousands of dollars in damage. The cost of a typical HID assembly for hydroponics can run from $100 to $500, and up.

Why are cops the worst at parking? What is this cop doing?

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 3:02 PM

It just annoys me to see cops doing things they give tickets, or probably give tickets for. I know I'd get the 3rd degree and a couple hundred dollar fine if a cop rolled up on me parked like this

Touch a Truck, an annual and growing event that raises funds, and kids interest in big rigs, semi's, and trucks has grown to the point that it happens in the Qualcomm stadium parking lot now

0 comments Posted by Unknown at 11:12 PM

This family-friendly car show is a sure hit with kids and parents alike, as all the vehicles are open for you to climb in and honk the horn!

Touch A Truck will please your palate, too, with 20 gourmet food trucks, an old fashioned bake sale, lemonade "experience", and more

This is Robosaurus! I didn't get there early enough to catch it in action, I had a car show I was at before this years Touch a Truck.. some days there are more than one car show to see.

The jungle gym bus interior

The Boogie Brothers Blues Band was pretty good! I liked them, and their playlist, though I doubt the kids were able to hear the music.. the kids were HYPED up!
