Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?

Stuff like this makes working in the dump that is Spring Valley manageable.

They should get Mayor "Goldie" Wilson to pardon her.

Wait, that's Hill Valley.

So she hasn't told her family, but she's publishing a racy photo in a tabloid?

Oldest trick in the book:

Drunk guys get stopped by the cops, and the driver is arrested. Cop looks at the other guys, says they're free to go. They drive off. New cops stop them about a quarter mile down the road, arrest THAT driver.

They will happily rinse, lather and repeat until the entire carload of drunks has been arrested for DUI.

Cops do this for a living, you are not fooling them. If your driver gets arrested and you've been drinking AT ALL, tell them to call you a cab, or better still call sober friends to come get you.

/I don't think they'll let your sober friends drive the car back, though at that moment it's the least of your worries.

WTG Rockland County.

Spring Valley always pulls the crazy stories.

Nothing fun happens in Suffern.

That's what I was thinking. It's not like this guy was shiatfaced.

According to MADD, if you can feel the effect *at all*, you're too hammered to drive.

/and you need to go to church.

Just RTFA, and the man was from SV but it appears that the sherriffs office arrested him when he went to pick up his buddy. Wouldn't that be at the jail in New City? Or do the sherrifs bring DUI cases to the closest town jail?

No, he'd be at the Sheriff's HQ in New City. And it does say at the end that's he's scheduled a hearing at the Clarkstown town Justice Court, which is right next door.

That's what I meant, sorry. All of my....involvement with police in Rockland County has been on a town level. All I know about the Sheriffs in Rockland is that they generally don't love the town cops who make a bit more on average than they do.

Have you seen the inside of the new (relatively) courthouse/Clarkstown PD station yet? I'm sure that building cost a pretty penny.

 
finnished 2009-03-15 05:39:22 PM  
It seems like the Rockland county Sheriffs only get action when it literally drops in their lap.

There's this, where the DUI literally drove himself to the Sheriff. Then there was a few months ago that person who was leaving the Sheriff's station only to lead a high-speed chase that ended on Little Tor, when he hit someone else in a minivan.

How long has that courthouse and Police station been there? It's been there at least the six years I've been in Rockland, right? But I live in Haverstraw, and that police station is more like a trailer, like Stony Point's.

Hey I heard that fire fighters don't completely put out fires so that they will spread and they can keep putting out fires. They do this for a living. It's true.

Here's an idea: if you've been drinking enough to be considered drunk, don't drive. Even if your driver is arrested for DUI.

Cops do this for a living, you are not fooling them. If your driver gets arrested and you've been drinking AT ALL, tell them to call you a cab, or better still call sober friends to come get you.


Good call, even though this should be your MO.

Be quiet. Don't you know this is the cop-hating thread, where we all get together and blame cops the for all our perceived injustices? Where we all reject personal responsibility for the sake of a good time, or just plain laziness? Where we all biatch and complain that all cops are just out there on a power trip, while ignoring the fact that the only time you ever hear of the police on the news is when something has gone wrong, and that all the police that do there jobs well and fairly are never mentioned in the press at all? Where we all make up tell of our run-ins with the evil police?

Yeah, they keep the legal BAC levels so ridiculously low that nearly everyone leaving a restaraunt after having a glass of wine with dinner is operating a vehicle over the limit.

My idiot ex gf did this after she had me arrested. They got her in the parking lot for DWI. I lol'd.

I disagree, but both can provide ample amounts of Guinness, which is all that really matters. O'Malley's is FAR better than when it was Walsh's however.

Afraid I'm failing to find one, and right now I'm living in Colorado.

But it's there. I promise. Right on the corner of New Hempstead Road and Main Street.
