I was about to say, if you were in SOCAL saying that... prepare to hit a **** storm. I just thought you were from SO CAL.
I went down there to visit a friend and said hella... I didnt hear the end of it. Grip is somewhat universal.. I hear Nor Calians saying grip quite a bit.

I think training on a gun and training on a radar gun.. might have a slight importance difference.. but dont go speeding through there.. they will probably do a felony stop on ya, if your driving our A8.. but hey sounds like fun
ORIGINAL: AWDaholic
If they're not at the very LEAST "trained" if not licensed on the equipment they're using you stand a better than average chance of beating them in court. ANY equipment that ANY law enforcemt agency uses has to be trained on, otherwise they leave themselves OPEN for lawsuits. What if some veteran cop accidentally shoots an innocent bystander and then it turns out that, not only has he NEVER recieved any "training" on his weapon, he never bothered qualifying on it, either... How many hundreds of millions of dollars would said victims family stand to rake in in the ensuing trial? If training isn't required, but taken anyway, you lose your leverage. But, if NO training is taken on the equipment (no matter WHAT it may happen to be) then you have a leverage point upon which to base YOUR case... WHich state is this again? I may have cause to drive through there one day (speeding, of course)
ORIGINAL: Redgoat
I dont think that would work because that state doesnt even require the police to be trained or certified on it
ORIGINAL: AWDaholic
If they aren't "trained" and they use one to "catch" you you cud prolly baet that in court. Of course, if the guy who nabs you IS trained, there goes your case, huh?
ORIGINAL: Redgoat
South Carolina law states that there is no required certification or training on the use of Radar equipment.

RE: The random crap thread!
Driving home today a guy in a toyota landcruiser tried to kill me!!!!
I had the cruise control on, going along, come up on this landcruiser, calmly switch lanes and go about the rest of my drive.
A few minutes later, he come right up on me, gets so close to me i can't even see him in my side mirrors (i'm going about 60)
He's swerving all around behind me, and at this point the road is just 1 lane each way with double yellow line, and we're on sort of a long gradual curve.
He pulls around me, illegally, glares at me, then pulls directly in front on me, like within 10 feet or less of my front bumper.
I tap the breaks to just turn off cruise control, cuz i have no idea what the h*ll is going on.
Then he SLAMS his breaks on (luckily i just had my breaks replaced), and luckily there were no cars coming at me, because i had to swerve into the oncoming traffic lane or else I would have hit him.
Then he just drives off going about 90. Speed limit on this road is 50 the whole 30ish mile stretch and i didn't come across him the rest of the drive.
I was afraid he'd be waiting for me or something around every curve though. I'm not sure what I did or did not do correctly to **** him off. When I passed him originally it was on a stretch of the road with a passing lane and he was going like 45 while i had cruise control set at 60 and like i said the speed limit was 50. Maybe he just felt like scaring the sh*t out of me cuz he was that type of person. I dunno. It was scary though.
