Refusing to help a officer perform a inspection

As posted above.
I don't remember the Constitution mentioning, drivers not helping during inspection process.
These are not the "rights" soldiers have died for.
Either way. Much easier for the DOT to write you OOS if your equipment doesn't meet safety standards.
Why argue with the inspector? When we got our CDL everyone knows CMV,s are subject to inspection.

Why assume an inspection will result in a monetary loss?

I was inspected couple years ago in Colorado. I have Jake's and Colorado requires a muffler, I had straight pipes. $2,000 something fine.
Inspector gave me a warning. No fine.
Maybe I'm just lucky with the inspectors
I get, or having a respectful attitude helps.

If you're given an unjust ticket, you can call the officers supervisor.
Good luck.

 

No, it does not. Rights are NOT vocation-dependent.

 

I don't like to give ammo the man who could go out his way to make my life hard I take the issue out there area being the field is there's right or wrong it can get ugly fast and it's your word on there's they can make up crap real fast so dispute it in court with a lawyer seen many trucker fight a simple issue getting handcuffed refused to so much as showing their ID or other no brainer stuff I am not saying you don't have rights but when a cop throws your arse to ground you best stop resisting play dead maybe though in that case, they make break your spine personally ones I have encounter are thugs with a badge. itchy have their hand on that gun when approaching my vehicle.

 

No, he wrote it up as an OOS but I was free to go as soon as I moved my glasses from around my neck to my nose. So I have an OOS on my record when technically I wasn't OOS. It was the Ashland POE northbound side.

 

That is just ridiculous.

 

Those are the kind of tickets that I will spend an insane amount of money just to waste the court's time.

 

Which sounds good, but they aren’t paying out of their own pocket to fight you back.... they’re paying out of taxpayers pockets. Their accountability is quite limited in that respect.

 

Whenever I see someone getting it, I so feel for the guy. His sacrifice ties up some ### wad, so the rest of us can keep going.

 

I guess it depends on where you live. As a company driver with less than satisfactory equipment, which was pretty much every company, all the fines go on the company. I have racked up thousands of dollars of fines and 2 oos. Didn’t bother me one bit. Told the cops you know how it is. You don’t haul it, you pack your stuff and we get someone else. They write the company up for every little thing imagianbale
