Ok, so, I'm a well behaved citizen. I have never done anything illegal other than supplement use. I don't use rec drugs, I have never sped or gone through red lights, never drive like a dickhead, and I have no tickets to show for this. My record is spotless. I am always respectful to the police as I occasionally come across an apparently nice one and I'd hate to be rude to a nice police officer - that'd upset me.
I was pulled over in my truck yesterday. And yes, it's big, it's covered in blood and mud, but it's pretty spot-on as far as legalities go.
The only legal issues I can see are:
- one of the mud guards was ripped off last weekend when I was pig hunting and I haven't had a chance to repair it.
- I have 'Fuck Fitness First' printed on my windscreen.
This police officer who pulled me over came straight up to my window and didn't say hello or say g'day, or even ask how I was.
He said straight off the bat "I'm going to take your car off the road today".
Keep in mind my truck is full of my weekly shopping, has three dogs in the back and I have two lasses in the car with me.
He was on a mission to FUCK me. He spent about an hour going over my car. Asking for engineers certificates for the modifications, which I have, and provided him. Saying I didn't have good vision...
Yeah, nice one dickhead, you are 5'8" and I'm 6'5". Our fields of vision are completely different. But that made no sense to him. He then proceed to tell me I couldn't have aerials and I had too many lights. I told him he was wrong and showed him the ADR book which I have printed out and proved him wrong. He didn't like that but I didn't like him pulling me over for an hour on a Saturday, completely unwarranted when he should have been doing something productive with his time that I, as a tax-payer, pay for.
At the end of the day I received a defect notice and I have to prove my truck's roadworthiness within 5 days. With what fucking time can I do this? I study full time and work full time. I need my truck to get from A-B.
This rant could go on forever but really what I'm trying to ask is, are all police officers arseholes? I am as friendly as an innocent puppy to every copper, but I seem to get fucked in the arse, every opportunity they get.
I know there are a few police officers in here. Well, I know one. And I'd love to hear your opinion on this. I understand you have to deal with wankers and junkies all day but why treat nice, friendly, law-abiding citizens like dirt? You know, the ones who say hi, and smile and ask how your day was?
Why fuck them over too?
