There were no spots open in the parking lot, which influenced his decision to park in the emergency zone. Therefor, his actions were abuse and a violation of the law. His attitude does not determine whether its abuse. His actions do. its as simple as that.[/quote]You're seriously ignorant OP. He wasn't abusing his power. "His actions do" what a stupid statement. If a average Joe parked there, would he be abusing his power? He was not using his power to justify his parking, therefore he wasn't abusing his power. Seriously, I can't wait for the judge to laugh in your face if you try to bring that up.[/quote] If an average joe parked there it would have been just as much of a parking violation. But the police officer parked there because he thought he could get away with it because he was in a police car. This is where the abuse of his authority comes in.
