If we gave the court a restriction on suspending licenses only when someone appears in person it would tie their hands for those who "fail to answer" or "fail to pay a fine", if you just don't show up you get away with it.

New hires do pay into their retirement and most jobs are moving over to medical contributions. Teachers get medical FREE upon retirement, so Police and Fire shouldn't? I would LOVE to get raises base on merit and productivity, I'd be a millionare, but then again everyone would complain we make too much money even though we "earned" it with "hard work". Im sure the FFs in the room wouldn't mind getting paid either based on the severity of the fires they fight, or get a little extra for going to an over abundance of activated alarms! Jobs want their employees educated, and believe me, the coverage isnt much at all so you can have that back, just give me my "merit based" raises! Sold us out to the Democrats? The Democrats the ones who want the contributions and such. I think you should read up a little more in a fact based document instead of icantpassacivilservicetest.com!

Title 4 regulates registrations

SO true!

GOOD!

Great photo. I too would like some of those secrets to bringing out the colors.

There was some recent case law regarding "pursuits", it stated the Police weren't liable because they didn't "force" the perp to flee. If anyone has the time or patience they can find it. Still doesn't excuse someone for abusing a blue light.

Once again its individual Police Officers that are doing this, let us not lump everyone together! I say block all you need, going off face value of the article I'd say at least one lane other than the center should have been blocked. And, if need be, block it all while the patient is taken out of the car and put into the ambulance, how long could it take? 5 minutes? How about 5 hrs for an AI when someone gets hit!

If it is open case/investigation it can be withheld. PD will have a record of medical aid/transport and as long as they didn't provide treatment it doesnt fall under the hipaa regs so it can be disclosed. There are exceptions to all of it such as if the release will: i. interfere with law enforcement investigations or judicial proceedings; ii. deprive a person of a right to a fair trial or impartial adjudication; iii. identify a confidential source or disclose confidential information relating to a criminal investigation; or iv. reveal criminal investigative techniques or procedures, except routine techniques and procedures; (f) if disclosed could endanger the life or safety of any person; If youre a victim you may seek payback on your perp so "f" could apply. Check out the website NYS Committee on Open Government and give them a call, they are more than helpful and just provided us with some training.

It didn't say anything about lights/sirens. If activated the truck wins this hands down. If not, thats another story if the other car, in fact, had the green light as stated in the article.

Maybe point and shoot cameras will start using wifi to "share" pictures as well. Theyre going to have to step up to the plate or be extinct.

Great site and I'm sorry to see it go. You've done a great job over the years and should be proud of your accomplishment. I hope to see a "comeback" in the future.

Just sleep well knowing a lot of top people in White Plains got raises while these three and nine more are looking for jobs!

I was being sarcastic, I wouldn't give up arbitration. Is "Rural Metro" going to come Police the communties that are on strike? Or maybe Wakenhut can do it.

I agree and say get rid of arbitration, oh and the Taylor Law, ya can't have your cake and eat it too. Then when we're not happy with 0% raises for 4 years we can strike! Welcome to the wild wild west!

The Officer's placement "in the window" was a bad choice. Had he been in the suggested position, behind the "b" piller, it would have given him a different point of view and may have prevented the perp from having the gun directly in his face! Having the flashlight in the strong hand, the list goes on but it all worked out in the end. You have to treat each stop as if it was your first out of the academy, use all your tactics and don't let "time on the job" get the best of you.

Emergency services are always preaching fire prevention, change batteries etc. But how about we make a big push for people to number their houses or business. How many times have you driven by a place, numerous times, and couldn't find it because its not clearly numbered? How's your own house, checked lately? Clearly numbering should be a campaign as well.

I agree with the truck being in the road is safer, agree with the handcuffs going overboard but when people stop listening to the Police it breaks down our system and we'll turn into a 3rd world country in the matter of no time. If an average Joe was walking by and saw this "insubordination" they'd surely get the impression that they wouldn't have to listen to the Police either. It would be so much better if we all got along and got rid of this power trip that so many are on. Lets put more into being safe and going home then whos got the bigger set!

Hes not even funny or entertaining. Give him his hour at 4am in between infomercials!

Happens to me on ie 8

Article said they were trained medics working as dispatchers. I don't care what "hat" they were wearing that day. Take a knee, get on the floor with the patient, do everything you possibly can with or without equipment. They apparently walked out too? These two should be locked up and do some time. Unacceptable and criminal if you ask me! To go along with antiquefirelt's post that's why "scrubs" should be worn sparingly as well. A lot of people associate them with nurses, but everyone wears them these days!

I know it's late but if youre looking for something to do stop down.

A little too much punishment, but zero tolerance is zero tolerance! Maybe some detentions or something, but a definite code red for the snitch! ;-)

Watch a "Cops" marathon, it's a lot more exciting!

Nice and small! Next theyll come out with a VW Bug Police Package! 2
