[ital916]

I rest my case. Dare to disagree and they become angry and abusive.

Did you have a specifically bad run in with the police at some point in time? Do tell. Ill get the popcorn

[Fatt Max]

lets face it, all police are constables.....

[Grahameeboy]

Paddy if its not already apparent patrick is a cop....THEY ARE NOT ON YOUR SIDE.

Funny cause he seemed to be helping....

[Indoo]

Paddy if its not already apparent patrick is a cop....THEY ARE NOT ON YOUR SIDE.

And yet strangely enough he's helped far more people on here who have had problems with the 'law' than you have.

Based on what data?.........Perception is not reality Indoo, I have individuals contacting me on a frequent basis asking for advice. Minor traffic infringements are the extent of my comments because minor traffic infringements serve only to tax the population.

Conversely the coppers on KB would have us believe that as a group they are beyond reproach, never lie, have your best interest at heart and paint a Utopian picture where they 'look after you'.

If I can get nothing else through to the unwashed masses it would be: Do not trust the police, courts or government, they are not on your side.

Firstly perception is reality....sorry to disagree...hence all the anti cop issues...

I don't think that SD and Patrick claim to be beyond reproach...

Finally..if you break the law the reality is that the "Law" are not on your side...knock knock...

I love you SPB but sometimes you need strapping to a couch and spoken to gently...

I feel the same about you brother. You will agree with the police as a greater good no matter what the contrary evidence-sycophant is the word!.........
Check out the 'formal complaints' thread, the onsite coppers make the most far reaching excuses for the actions of fellow officers...........

Okay there are about 11,000 cops in NZ...you have only met a smingin of the Police force.....that's reality

A strap-on????

[Ixion]

Not so well said. If that was the case, JP's wouldn't toss out ANY cases......

Well, I was assuming that the OP doesn't belong to the same golf club as the JP.

I think this case is a long shot, but may I present the following information for your consideration:

Land Transport (Road User) Rule 2004, Section 1.8

A person is not in breach of this rule if that person proves that—
(a) the act or omission complained of took place in response to a situation on a road; and
(b) the situation was not of the person's own making; and
(c) the act or omission was taken—
(i) to avoid the death or injury of a person; or
(ii) if the act or omission did not create a risk of death or injury or greater damage to any property, to avoid damage to any property.
