Reckless local department on I-78 in NJ. Don't let these hotdogs get YOU.

I just don't get it. I understand that if speed limit laws weren't inforced that people would be flying down the highways and streets with reckless abandon.

But the way some of the police officers pursue speeder's that are 5 to 10 miles over the speed limits seems to be more dangerous than the speeder's they're after.

 

Reminds me of this:

 

I think there's a court house like that in luckenbach .

 

SO, is the driver just speeding, or are they in a hurry to a hospital because a child isn't breathing, or did the driver just rob or murder someone and is leaving the area? If you don't know, don't judge what they do.

Oh, and if the officer was hurrying to your residence because someone was trying to break into your house with your wife and kids in it, do you want them to drive the speed limit, or get there as fast as possible?

I did put in my post the circumstances I was referring to and it was a minor speeding infraction. I, you and everyone else benefits from what they do . My post was in regards to How a few officers pursue someone doing 5 or 10 miles over the speed limit. Nothing about chasing fleeing bank robbers or murders.

 

I've called in more then one officer that I thought was in a unsafe location shooting radar. Make sure you get the ID number of the person you talk to.

 

But what did I say, the officer doesn't KNOW what the car speeding by him has done. There's not a sign on the side of the car that says "Law abiding person, just speeding."

 

True. I was referring to the scene the op had described about running tottaly blacked out and putting the other motorist's in jeopardy.
