Waht does that mean, exactly, wearing your seat belt improperly?

Was it a brown belt with black shoes?

That seems even harder to see.

That's what he wrote on the warning. I had the seatbelt under my arm instead of over my shoulder.

Only got a warning, but I don't know how the cop possibly saw that as I was going 45 mph. He called in for a backup car as well, so maybe it takes two cops to give a warning, or he thought he saw something else.

NJ always calls for backup for traffic stops.

i think every pd does. It's not even the cop himself- as soon as the car stop is made the dispatcher assigns the 2nd unit. often the cop will call in with 'no cover' after a couple minutes when everything smells ok, but i guess the drpa cops are always real close to each other so it doesn't really matter. i mean they have a 1.5 mi stretch to cover!

Because PrattRules plays by his own rules

Last couple times (in two different jurisdictions) I was pulled over there was just one cop.

Yeah, 'no cover' is pretty common. That usually happens after a minute or so when your tag comes back clean and the officer's evaluation is that you're not a threat. (Coincidentally I just heard a plymouth cop say "you can disregard status and backup" and the dispatcher resumed another cop- who is a buddy of mine). In pratt's case he's either menacing (we've met him, we know) or the dynamics of the DRPA PD is different- they're usually a closer to each other than your normal municipality.

i guess i should explain that a little better. Using the call I just listened to as our example, a guy made a car stop. dispatch sent another car. after about a minute or two (when the backup car was still on the way) the initial cop came back on the radio and said the 'no status or backup' thing, and the dispatcher called the 2nd cop and said 'you can resume', which is pretty much what it sounds like- go about your business and don't go back up the other car.

Curious what information comes back to the officer. Does it include demographic data such as ethnicity?

No? That is gleaned when he comes to your car and asks for your license and registration. "Tag comes back valid to a green toyota out of lansdale. 1 prior for speeding in august of 2016".

I enjoy Pantera as much as I remember enjoying them.

Took the kids out this morning for breakfast and to pick up some flowers for mother’s day got back around 10, went in the house for about 15 min. Then came back out side to do some work in the garage, walked down to the end of the drive way to pick up the newspaper and my mailbox which had been there when I got home 15 min before was obliterated and the shrubs around it flattened and there were tire marks up into my lawn. Some fucker must’ve been texting and drove into my front yard in the time it took me to go in my house and take a shit. There were chunks of blue textured rubber and plastic with metal mesh in it all around so at least the dumbass has some pretty good damage to their car, but now I have to replace my mailbox and post. We live on a horse shoe shaped road, so there’s no through traffic meaning whoever did it likely lives in the neighborhood. I’m going to take a ride a round and see if I can find s blue car with a fucked up front. I’m pissed man.

Maybe if you took psyllium it wouldn't take you so long to shot.
