  1. Re: Off Duty Officer Requested I Be Issued a Ticket

    Guy,

    I took slight offense to the tone of your initial post is all. I agree with your above statements. Officers are given the freedom to use personal judgement in all situations. I personally...
  2. Re: Off Duty Officer Requested I Be Issued a Ticket

    Guy,

    Starting to drift out of my lane does not mean I did leave my lane. I'm sure many of us here have experienced this. You are tired and notice you are slowly drifting toward one side of the...

    he he...slow down. My mother has been telling me that for years.
