Normally I love the Rochester Police Department. But in the past year I have had three sour incidents.
1. that whole - "no bikes on the sidewalk... and I'll hunt you down if you ride away, by driving over the sidewalk and pulling your friend off his bike and threatening to arrest him.
------don't we have the highest murder per capita?
2. Pulled over for non-stock exhaust and tinted windows. Guy also claimed he could smell alchohol on my breathe. tough to do when i'm not drinking. hmm. and the second officer he called over said the windows were just dirty.
3. Now lets see how #2 ties into #3.
After leaving Lux for the BP birthday celebration, Greg and I got Taco Bell.
I get snagged as I park in front of my apartment... two cops waiting next to Prepps. I get hit for the following:
*No sideview mirror
*No turn signal
*no license
NO License?! Turns out ticket #2 above hadn't cleared the system. I explain that, officer says it may take 90 days... I can fight it in court, but I'll have to fight the original charge too.
I was like, listen man, thats 4 court dates that will happen all in a week. Thats not cool. Tough he says. Rochester has a zero tolerance policy - you have to take it all to court. I got a sobriety test too, pen and light.. I called the officer out.
Like this:
rpd: ok, just follow the pen tip.
jtf: top or bottom?
rpd: ughh, bottom.
jtf: checking for pupil dilation?
rpd: yeah.
jtf: Really? because thats not going to change with alchohol. you're jsut checking to see if I can follow it.
rpd: yeah, uh, well, yeah.
jtf: I see you've made a triangle, its very bright.
rpd: get back in the car.
rpd: (yells to other cop) "he's fine."
oiy. I'll have to take care of that one today. Fun fun.
