Barmore Pulled Over. Claims "racism". [10/19 update: apologizes]

[Pape]

Insurance does not cover a vehicle that does not have a current registration and therefor it cannot operate on a public street.

That true? gonna ask a buddy how that **** works.

 

[Ross12]

whoa. dont **** with pennsylvania.


i literally did not renew my license in time. got caught. not once. twice. second time they "taught me a lesson". towed my car. had to go to court court, not traffic court but court court with a judge, prosecutor and rusty the bailiff and everything. case dismissed the day of the hearing by showing the prosecutor a valid license. attorney earned the money that day.

Yeah you can't make it up. I was in my early 20s so I just dealt with it but it was tough. If that **** happened to me now I probably would have hired an attorney and had a different outcome. Couldn't afford it then. Glad your attorney got you the better outcome lol

 

[Pape]

They profiled him and had enough for a pretextual stop.

The plate cover alone is enough to stop someone in RI. Cant have one that obscures the plate.

Police officer for 25 years....its true in Va and I suspect in most states.

worst age to have that **** happen... to old to ask for help, too young to actually know what to do... get abused by "the man" just due to inexperience.

1AM.
That's pretty late out there in Pilgrim/Puritan land.
WTAF
I want to give Mayo a chance but it sure seems like there is no adult supervision over there.

 

[Patsfan1645]

Totally off-topic, but I see so many cars driving around New York with these super crazy tinted windows, and I thought that was illegal? Did the law change or did I just imagine there was a law against that

Tent law is very different from state to state. Also keep in mind it doesn't matter what state your car is registered in its the state your driving in that it must be in compliance with.

Bars close in Providence at 1 am... coincidence? I think not...

I have wrote a couple thousand radar tickets in my day. The technology is so rapidly changing Lidar is replacing radar across the country. It shoots a laser and what ever car you hit on you instantly get its speed, its much easier to get a specific car in a group. So radar detectors aren't what they once were.

And yes our highways do suck. Why we don't have more 6 and 8 lanes is baffling.

yeah, back in the day Cobra ruled the roads... but now? when you are set up, I know where you are a half mile before i can see you... waze ftw... better than any radar detector ever made... just gotta keep an eye out for the roamers... but with all the cameras out there, pretty soon traffic enforcement will go by the way side... it will be all automated and we will just get tickets randomly in the mail... not here yet, but the money is just too lucrative for the pols to pass up, so you know its coming...

and just between you and me... no one else will know... Quotas - real? Yes/No ?

 

[Froob]

This thread will go well here

 

[reflexblue]

I don't get the racism charge by barmore. He covered his plates so they wouldn't be picked by cameras, his license and registration had expired, and i think i read he had pot in his car. Its pretty blatant law breaking, racism has nothing to do with it.

 

[Ring 6]

There is no racism among cops in providence and Boston. They are just following the law.

During while black after midnight is serious offense.

No, driving an unregistered vehicle with a suspended license and obscuring your players is. He also had tinted windows, so I guess the racist cops have X-ray vision.
Best way to get people to be desensitized to racism, is to claim it wherever doesn’t exist.

Camera speed and red light violations have been happening down here in the DMV for several years, big brother is always watching

Quota...Yes and no is the answer. First it is a federal law violation to have a quota in place. It will get your agency investigated by the Feds and placed under a consent decree with them monitoring you closely...very very bad to fall into and could put your agency at risk of being allowed to do enforcement, generally people get fired when that comes down the pipe. On the other side of the coin yes it does happen but without saying. Example.....Your in a specialty unit that just does traffic enforcement, its an unwritten rule you need about 100 tickets a month and around 10 DUIs. A few months of you missing the mark you get notified of your transfer for some lame reason out of the unit.

No clue what happened but traffic violations and pot don't prevent racism

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Don't see how Mayo is expected to know about 70 odd players' license and auto registration status. Last thing I'd be critical of Mayo for.
Since Barmore didn't pop a cap in anyone's ass, I'm OK with this.
My Mayo concern is player penalties and little sign of top notch defensive and offensive coaching. STs seem OK so far though.

 

[vicspats]

you have got to be kidding me...

play stupid games, win stupid prizes... and with first hand experience, i can say the providence police love playing that game...

Agree. They looking to play real cops up in Providence.

 

[vicspats]

Weed in the vehicle will now warrant drug testing.

That true ? That a new law in these parts ?
