Road rage questions.

Bad day for the cop......Can an off duty officer pull you over?
I would be afraid to pull over with someone just flashing a badge.....

yes, in fact, they are required to do so should they see a crime being committed...they are never truly off duty...

but would you be afraid to pull over if someone flashed something else? lol....

 

[tboy]

Now that the officer has been convicted, his case is very strong. I doubt anyone is banking on it, I m sure he suffered and he has the right to recover any damages caused onto him by the pig. :biggrin2:

hmmm I have to wonder if you're one of the many that call them "pigs" right up until the point that you need one.....

 

[tboy]

fuck, it must be that venus travelled in front of the sun this month because yet again, hof and i agree....

if the cop was off duty, he has no claim against the police department.......that's like suing the company I work for for something i did in my off hours.....being employed by an organization doesn't make them liabel for everything their employees do on their own time.....

I might agree with you if the cop hadn't flashed his badge to get the guy to pull over.

 

[tboy]

tboy you contradict your own self :YMAPPLAUSE:

yes, it is a bit of a contradiction being a cop.....you're pissed upon at every oppurtunity for doing your job by people such as yourself....until people such as yourself need them......

just because it is a cop's duty to uphold the law even when they're off duty, doesn't make the city liabel for their actions......but, like i said, being a cop is being in a position of damned if you do and damned if you don't.....if someone found out the cop saw this guy driving erratically and dangerously and didn't pull him over, he'd be crucified for not doing something....here he did something and is crucified for it......

a good example is a doctor who works in a hospital....they are morally bound by their oath to help people in need of medical attention but should anything happen while rendering this assistance while the doctor is not on duty at the hospital, the hospital isn't and cannot be held accountable....

capice?

sorry i must have missed something, where does is say in the law that you can assault another person because you have a badge?

it's called "reasonable force" and examples of this are all over the net...you know those videos that show police tazing, wrestling to the ground, using their nightstick, on persons not complying with an order to stand down? Though in this case, it seems the officer in question went a little too far and since in most cases people tend to want to fry a cop but in any event, he was found guilty.

I think the title is a misnomer however.....from the situation described, it isn't a case of road rage, but police rage for a civvie not complying with a police order...if the cop had just subdued the other driver, i bet it wouldn't even make the headlines......

kicking a man (20/30 times) and breaking his jaw is reasonable force? oh ya of course it is - in your views. The judge obviously disagreed and convicted the cop!

This statement proves that if a case is properly presented to the courts they will rule against their own. This officer's mistake was laying a beat down out of anger on a reckless driver. T is correct, if he had just pulled him over and waited for uniformed officers to show up he would have been patted on the back.

I might agree with you if the cop hadn't flashed his badge to get the guy to pull over.

As I said earlier, he should have called it in, plate, make, model, followed at a safe distance and let those on-duty officers deal with it. That was his error.

True, it would be a civil suit.

 

[-b]

but would you be afraid to pull over if someone flashed something else? lol....

It would depend on who is flashing.....A Woman or Man.
I would for a woman only if she does not look like she is a he
and can beat the crap out of me....:rofl!:
What about you tboy, what do you like flashing.EACE:

Police road rage caught on tape Charleston SC

Police road rage caught on tape Charleston SC

Cop has issues or is the driver an A-hole?

NORTH CHARLESTON, SC (WWAY) -- A South Carolina man takes to social media to vent his frustration with an Onslow County Sheriff's deputy.

The driver, Chad Walton, began rolling video last night right before he says the deputy cut him off and caused a crash. He later posted the video to YouTube.

Walton came up on the Onslow County Deputy going eastbound on I-526 in North Charleston, SC. Walton says the deputy was holding up traffic by going 50 mph in the fast line, when the speed limit was 60.

To get around the deputy, Walton says he moved in to the right lane before pulling back into the fast lane. Still recording video, Walton caught the deputy passing on his right, then cutting back in front. That's when the video shows the deputy slamming on his brakes, which caused Walton to rear-end the cruiser.

"That video doesn't lie," Walton told WWAY by phone. "You can see how it happened. You can see the speedometer in the video, where you can see I was going 60 miles an hour."

After the crash, Walton says the deputy, driving car No. 145 that was marked as a K-9 unit, did not pull over, so Walton called 911. Walton says North Charleston Police responded and cited the deputy for being at fault. The officer was not ticketed.

So far the Onslow County Sheriff's has not returned calls for comment. North Charleston Police also have not responded to our requests for more information.
