Such crap. Obviously they are so full of shit.

"We can't take that ticket away," Alyson Edwards, a spokeswoman for Saskatoon police, said. "We wouldn't be doing our duty if we hadn't issued that. If we had allowed him to go without a seatbelt on, and no exempt status, we wouldn't be doing our jobs."

If he's been driving for 28 years why pick on him now?.

 

[Analme]

Cops can be such bitches!

 

[Al Bumin]

How was he steering his car?.

 

[Cardinal Fang]

Cops can be such bitches!

You know it just dawned on me that the cop must of felt pretty safe approaching the car once he realized the driver was unarmed.









*Looks around*

What?

Actually they are not. It is my understanding that police can not just scrap the ticket once entered. It is up to a JP to do it.

Second - they are right in that they would not be doing their job if they did not give the ticket.

Yes - I know it is silly, and common sense would say to have let him go. However, the law is law and they are following it to the letter.

I agree it is stupid, and pointless and waste of time/money, resources etc, but totally by the book. Get an exemption. Clearly he is entitled to one. So just do what you are suppose to do and it will not be a further issue.

Some would/could go as far as saying that this man should have no wasted the time of the cops, now a judge, etc by just getting this exemption in the first place.
