3.CT has a new law we dont have emissions stickers anymore. You only have to go after your car has reached 4 years old after first date of registration. He has no way to tell if his emissions were expired unless he ran his plate and specifically checked for that violation. The car was 4 years and a couple weeks old. Anyway when your car turns 4 years old you are supposed to get a letter from the DMV andhe never did.
Also that is 3 tickets in less than 24hours from the same cop. Are you really trying to tell me that is normal. or this cop doesnt have a problem?
My brother also by the way has a perfect driving record not one ticket on it. And this cop is f###king him because he is pissed off for some reason. Give me a break Gresh

I don't want to get into an argument with you. You were there, I wasn't , I'll have to take your word for it. (I will however ask you if you were respectful or a wise ass to the cop when he entered your parking lot.... how was he to know if you were the owner or not? what if he found 2 people ripping up your parking lot and got them off your property? you'ld be pretty happy huh? )
HOWEVER, I do take exception to the negative generalizations and assumptions about LEO's that occur on a daily basis by the general public. (it burns me up even more when they then hypocritically scream for help from their local LEO's when something happens to them.)
Many times people complain about being treated badly by a cop, it later comes out that the person was disrespectful to the cop and they swear that they were doing NOTHING wrong... I'll tell you a few things about the cops that I know....
1) They couldn't care less about harrassing anyone with numerous tickets, it just creates paperwork and court time for them and could put their job in jeaporday. Sure there are bad apples out there, but they are FAR outnumbered by the good guys.
2) More than not, whenever someone has a problem with a cop for whatever reason, the complaints get generalized into statements that ALL cops are dbags, well, they're not, a vast majority of cops are good, hard working people and don't deserve the negative generalizations. If someone made negative generalizations about a race of people or members of a religion, everyone would be screaming "racism" or something similar.... think seinfeld and the "anti-dentite" episode
3) I've gotten my fair share of tix, and you know what, i was just as mad as the next guy, but you know what? once the anger wears off I realized I deserved every ticket I've ever received, in fact I probably should have gotten a lot more than I ever received, so i'm ahead of the game. Unfortunatley, people need to shelve the misplaced anger bullshit immature mind games that they play with themselves and realize that it's more probable than not, and yes ther are exceptions, that they deserved whatever tix they've received in their lives.
I've pontificated enough... have a good rest of the weekend.
