So apparently cool cops are the ones that don't do their job right.

Prime example of the Omega Effect right here.

More like takes extenuating circumstances into account. Speeding is a misdemeanor. OP said his work place is very strict on punctuality and his being late was a fluke. The officer obviously did not want to wreck OP's life over a misdemeanor.

Edited by Psyntifik: 9/15/2016 5:28:10 PMOP should have manged his time better. Not the cops problem he's late. Nor is it mine when he knocks me off my bike on the way to work.
-
He said it was a fluke. In other words, this is not a regular occurrence. Also, according to his description of the conditions, no one was on the road.
-
Well if nobody seems to be on the road, speed away!
-
That still doesn't change my point, the cop was not doing what he was being payed to do.
-
Would you rather a police officer enforce every single law on the books, without exception? Or would you rather them exercise some judgement and worry about the larger crimes?
-
I would rather have the first option. Because that will encourage people to actually obey the law regardless of their situation.
-
I encourage you to look up laws in your state before answering that question. Some of them were made over a century ago to enforce "morality" rather than protect the common good.
-
Someone who gets it. Thank you haha. Common sense is so hard to come by on these forums these days man. It's incredible.
-
Fuk yeah ! And give me those cops everyday!
-
Its their job to "protect and serve" not to give tickets. The tickets are a way of deterrent from speeding but as OP said he didnt have a criminal record so it's unlikely he speeds often.
-
Did OP say he doesn't have a criminal record?
-
Speeding makes driving more dangerous for others. Discouraging speeding reduces risk of accidents.

[quote]Discouraging speeding reduces risk of accidents.[/quote] We already discussed this.

I think this story went over your head little guy, bless you.
