Police are planning...

[NZIrish]

Johnny wanted to be a traffic Officer, so he joined the 'MOT', one day the MOT were made into Policemen. Johnny soon found himself wearing a blue uniform instead of a black and white one. Then one day Johnny, who wasn't used to using his discretion, as most real Policemen were, started issuing everyone with tickets in the small rural town he had recently been transferred to. He would give tickets for all sorts of things, like pregnant solo mothers speeding to the hospital for instance. He would ensure he was giving tickets when real Policing had to be done, like chasing criminals. One day Johnny found himself at the local pub all by himself, because he had been sent there as the only officer available. Johnny was a bit scared as a fight had broken out and he wasn't sure if he could handle the situation. Stepping inside he saw two patrons in a stand-off , one holding a knife, the only barman on the floor unconscience and bleeding, Johnny knew he had to act, he also knew he needed help from the other patrons. Johnny looked for help, he recognised most of the faces as people he had issued tickets to, most in fact more than once, some whom he had heated arguments with even over the fact, but most he knew would help him....wouldn't they.......he thought. Johnny was worried.

..Would they help indeed. This guys, is a by-product of the current Policy on the issuing of tickets, I shit you not!.

Funny thing happened to, Johnny was promoted soon after being released from hospital and is now an Inspector of Police with the Traffic Safety programme bbbwwwaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

It is surely the biggest crock of shit that has ever happened in the History of the NZ Police, where people wait hours for Police to attend burglaries, even if the offender is on the bloody premises, assaults, etc etc because so much time is dedicated to wrighting fecken tickets. In fact I here in parts of Auckland they take burglary reports over the fecken phone!

Since the merger the NZ Police have been infected with a cancer in the form of 'ex-mot' types...who 'some' incidentally flatly refused to complete the Police basic training course but went out there anyway with there PR24 and authority to use deadly force if it came to that.

The very scary thought of course is that some of those mutants are now involved in policy making on actual 'Police' procedure and tactics.....like Johnny for instance. :LMAO!@#Q@#

PS: DNA sample...yeah right!

Responsibility would easily be ascertained in driver education/training practise.People who take their riding/driving seriously are paying out from their own pockets for advanced skills training and maintain their vehicles meticulously.

As for the "stupidoscope" just take a look around you next time you're out on the road...tailgating, riding the centre line, failing to indicate, inability to maintain a constant cruising speed, poor cornering lines, braking mid bend, speeding up on passing lanes with no intention of passing etc etc...all are signs of incompetence and easily spotted.

Trouble is you have to be there to do anything about although at the risk of firing up certain people *555 (or 111 if it's bad enough) do work- just not ALL of the time.
People DO ge tickets for tailgating, cutting corners etc and they squeal about it almost as much as some on this forum do about speeding tickets

A most entertaining fantasy nzirish, don't let any facts get in the way though. I think you did leave one or two in.
Use of deadly force by a non-sworn Officer! Excellent.
Admittedly, I do know of one ex-Mot, Police Inspector who locked himself in the Patrol car while his partner was being assaulted. Had to call for back-up, you see. Took him a while too. I think he was waiting for the offenders to get tired.
It hasn't hurt his Police career though.
And Marty, speed limits are set to that which most people are comfortable with, are they?
Why are your cronies writing so many tickets then?

whats johnnys surname start with

[Bandito]

UNBELIEVABLE!!! 75000 more speeding tickets and all the time they are telling us that the road toll is coming down as result of less speeding motorists thru heavier policing of speed. So I guess they are going to issue 25% more speeding tickets from a smaller pool of speeding motorists therefor if we all behave ourselves an nobody speeds the police could then invent a new law such as "Intending to speed" to keep the
revenue flow at the required rate.It may sound ridiculous to you but so is the rest of the bullshit we have been fed since the introduction of speed cameras.
When the police can produce a link between high revenue gathering areas and high accident areas I could almost start to take them seriously.

...and the revenue gathered is used on that same accident blackspot to fix it up.

[igor]

Sadly I might have to retract this statement after yesterdays effort.

Sum total for the day:
8 drivers warned for speed up to 64kph

10 x speeding tickets ranging from 65 - 88 kph. One was a biker snatched at 87. Another a middle aged female caught at 88kph overtaking in a residential area and then ran a red light trying to evade police. Another was a woman aged about 65 nabbed at 76kph.

One idiot riding a clapped out scooter without a helmet.

Two unsafe vehicles written off the road.

And just to prove that you can police the road and do REAL police work too,

1 x report of wilfull damage
2 x reports of domestic burglary
1 x burgler locked up from a DNA hit sampled from an exhibit found at the scene.
2 x juvenile offenders caught and locked up for breaking into cars.

Not a bad days work overall.

where abouts in godzone do u work as they must have some real dumbass's there.

taihape perhaps, nah don't think they got traffic lights there.

PS i nose how hot ya is on spelling, cause ya corrected me b4, and i fink ya spelt somefing rong in the above quote. i no its hard being perfect but please don't let yaself down like this again

Surname wouldn't be Kelly would it?

Then there's the ex-MOT Sergeant, now Police Inspector, who locked himself in the car when his partner was being assaulted.
He was 'calling for back-up'. Took a while though, we thought he was waiting for the offenders to get tired.
And Marty, if the TLV is 100 km/h, why are 750,000 people getting speeding tickets each year?
And rising.

there might be 750000 getting tickets, but a shit load more are not....in my experience at least 1/3 of those receiving one ticket, will receive another within 12 months.

[scumdog]

Your'e dead right Marty, amazing the amount that say "eff you, I can't afford this ticket, I'll have 130 demerits now and lose my licence, youv'e ruined my life you ...hole"

I bet that kind of person would also piss on an electric fence more than once too!!

If my licence was in jeopardy I'd be paranoid about speeding but maybe I'm not THAT slow a learner after all

10,9,7,6,etc,,,,,,,,,,,

Take it up with the Govt.

[spudchucka]

Because its the same bunch of dumbarse drivers that keep speeding and are too stupid to not get caught.

I don't give a stuff about spelling. I do have a low idiot tolerance level though.

And obviously a very wide definition of an idiot.
Basically anyone who disagrees with you.
