Hazzard County

I was taking it seriously. Re read the above posted comment of mine, now pretend I am NOT a copper. You understand now????

If tickets flow from piss poor riding behaviours, then yeah, expect attention.

And if they flow from piss poor policing?



Police targeting..... Ummm... Drunk or drugged drivers. Speed. Seatbelts. Dangerous/Reckless drivers/boy racers etc. Yep - targeting. What do you expect?

Its already in the road code, Land Transport Act, Traffic Regulations just to name a few. There to be seen and read. Totally transparent. The bosses say lets stop the carnage on the roads by targeting. And there is a problem with that..... somehow.....

Target individuals without metrics to back up erroneous beliefs is what we are talking about here Patrick.

Yeah.... coz cops aren't allowed to be discharged without conviction or receive diversion..... just like every one else......??? Pffttt

Questionably the worst offender on the ATNR has come out and stated that a fair cop will be accepted with little complaint.

You fail to accept issues exist within Hazzard Patrick, why? the front page article is a good example of piss poor policing and a few examples have been provided for you within this thread. Good chance many folk would not come forward for fear of reprisal.

Come on hinny.
You are not a cop so you obviously made this up.
Only cops are capable of telling the truth, everyone else is a liar.

This what its really about Patrick.

Can't always believe what one might read on a local rag paper, let alone the national one..... but hey, I am stirring, just a little... and the examples in threads sound like a problem. But if it is accepted and nothing is done, then it isn't a problem.... you follow what I am saying?

Fear of reprisal? If complaints are regular, thick and fast from multiple sources, reprisals from who? He won't be out there....

If the drunken ramblings of one is good enough to put some off the road for 15 months til it gets sorted, imagine what would happen from independant multiple complaints from sober folk against the same person....

Never a truer word.... in my case. The Stranger spotted it nicely.....

Your cynicism for there actually being a problem, is matched by my cynicism that complaining would make any difference.

Thanks Ninja...

I re-posted the part that is genuine fact..........................

So intoxicated fuckwit drivers should be given free range to what ever they want? Sounds rational.

The message being is drink, drive, kill someone, not your fault, but that cop who had the gaul to thinks of stopping you, and didnt follow to the exact letter, the pursuit policy, totally to blame...... I think he should at least loose his job, I mean what was he thinking.......

Look up straw-man on wikipedia. The argument IS NOT that such drivers be given free reign. Get a grip.

My reaction is no reflection on Patrick-he seems like a genuine kiwi good bugger...

Hazzard county coppers however have high level officers who have little issue with running maverick operations that includes blatant law breaking and fact fabrication to get a conviction.......I can personally attest to this one more than one occasion.

Couple of year ago I'm cruising along not far from the Byrderwn turn off when I see flashing lights in the distance.
I pull over take my lid off an wait for the inevitable,,,I'd been sitting on about 135kph.
The cop comes over say's "good morning" an asks to see my licence.
He tells me he clocked me at 125km and then asks if I'd like to see the Radar.
I say "no thanks I know what I was doing" so he asks me to wait while he checks me details and goes back to the car to do so.
After a couple of minites he comes back ticket book in hand,an hands me a ticket for 115 in a 100 zone.
I look at it,an say fair enough mate,see ya' late,,,he say's "take it easy from here alright " an we both go our own ways.

Right nazi he was,,,,,,

Far out, sounds like you guys have all the luck. Last time I got done it was for 60 in a 50 km zone at 4am in the morning. The only other person on the road was the cop who gave me the ticket!! Previously, 62 in a 50km zone after overtaking a granny doing 30km. A quick speed up and overtake then pull in and slow back down. didn't even see the cop coming the other way! To make matters worse, he even said that by the time he had turned around to follow me I was sitting on 53!!! Still gave me a ticket....and demerits....
