  1. Ferrari looks like a salvage car.
  2. 3 or 4 kids? I've been paying about $1800/mo total but I'm doing my best to negotiate. That's for (net) one child. First step is not getting divorced in Ohio if you can help it.
  3. Researching NY law and ensuring I don't say something stupid. As far as I understand it, if you are not under arrest or being detained, you are free to go about your business at any time. On another forum, I read this regarding the specific video we are discussing: However, I'd like to make my opinion clear, the way the driver looks at the cop, then gets in the car while the cop does not want him to drive away, are both situations that I would EXPECT to give this situation the escalation we see. I don't think one is right and the other is wrong. I think the cop should have shown more restraint, and I think the driver of the Ferrari should have fought this ticket in court. But interestingly enough, I guess in NY if you can drive away while a metermaid is writing your ticket, it's invalid. There are several case studies if you're interested; here's one: http://nycourts.law.com/cpma/NYDOI.asp?CID=125462
  4. The cop repositions himself to be in the way of the car after it is moving. He does so before, but is not completely in the way, so he moves again once it is moving. It is also unnecessary. If he stayed OUT of the way, would he still have been able to administer the ticket? Most likely. If he wanted to ensure he gave the ticket to the driver, could he have stopped him before he got into his car? If the driver failed to stop and got in and drove away, could he have been arrested for fleeing the scene as well? Refusing to pull over? The situation was escalated due to the actions of both parties. As a police officer, he should be able to keep the upper hand without putting himself in that position. The car starts moving at :17. The cop repositions his foot at :24.
  5. Correct, and when it was parked the cop wasn't in front of it, so he was SAFE. When the car starts moving, and cop gets in front of it, it is no longer PARKED, it is MOVING. He steps in front of a MOVING car. I have highlighted your vocabulary words, please study them and then respond.
  6. Yes, if you step in front of a moving car you are a fucking moron.
  7. The cop put himself in front of the car after it started moving. There was no reason for him to act that way. They mail tickets all the time.
  8. This is awesome, but I can only see it if I click 'watch on YouTube'. Is that the case for anyone else?
