Just some of the stupid things I see

I hate to say it because I have to agree with the law! Jerks like this make CSA2010 necessary! I wish I could have been there with you DB, I would've loved to hear this idiot's story. What was he thinking? You would think after the 1st ticket, he would have cooled his jets for a little. Guys like that give us a bad name!!!

 

I'm going to guess that excuse wont work next time,..............

 

Dieselbear, I wish you pulled me over when I got my very first and only speeding, over 11hrs and 14hrs.

I got a speeding ticket doing 69 in a 65 zone on I70 mile marker 135. After I pulled over there was a knock on my passanger door. I opened it and a very young officer who asked me how fast was my speed and where I was coming from and heading to. I explained to him 67Mph, coming from Laredo Tx and heading to Toronto On. I was getting off at exit 149 to take my 10.

He asked if I had a problem if he entered my cab, I had no problems with his request.
He then asked for all of my papers. I handed him 2 binders and away he went.
1 Hour passed and another trooper pulled behind him. After 30 minutes the young officer appeared at my door with my 2 binders and a few tickets. 1 ticket for speeding 4 Mph over the speed limit and the other two for being 45 minutes over 11hrs and 45 min over the 14 hr rule.
I stated to him that that was impossible I had 15 minutes to go on my logs. I asked him to explain these to me. My problem was time zone change; my clock in the truck does not change however on my cell it does. He even showed me the mistake I made, where I drew the line then scribbled over it. He explained to me that these happens a lot with Ontario drivers.

At this time he explained to me that he will follow me to the next exit and he will give me back all of my info. When I got to the station he gave all of my documents back with the tickets.

I looked at him and said, you can see my CVOR record is clean, I made an honest mistake and there is no way to give me a break. He explained to me that I'm a professional driver and should not make mistakes.

As I was looking at the ticket I noticed that my birth date was wrong. I smiled shook his hand and said good night. He had a puzzled looked and asked what was wrong. I explained to him that there was a mistake on my ticket, however he is a professional and he does not make mistakes.

These is where his attitude changed. He said to me " Hey you, it does not matter what mistake I made on the ticket I'm the law".
I turned around and explained to him that manners go a long way. It's "excuse me sir, not hey you". This is where he told me I'm just a truck driver. I lost all respect for this Officer and the uniform he represents.

 

....Why do these guys think they're going to get away with this? Embellishing 15 minutes because you couldn't find a space at a truck stop is one thing...but this????

 

Ya ever see this license DB? Best fake I ever seen.
