4:39 am
somewhere but i would get that taken care of with the dmv as soon as possible. if a police department towed every driver caught riding dirty, there would be a staggering amount of cars and trucks in the impound yard so officers are given something called discretion. nats: ambiance police officers pull over lots of drivers on any given day but more so during a crackdown, this driver was chilling at a stop light but forgot one important detail of driving to put on his seatbelt he is pulled over and the officer, in this case it's officer guaydacan of the brisbane police department has a chat with the driver may i see your license registration and insurance please? the driver was having a craving (sot) just going to jack in the box (just going to jack in the box) hate when that happens many times a day do you have your license registration and insurance . basically the standard question is asked when pulled over .. if you are missing any of those thing you could have issues this driver was missing proof of insurance and his registration appeared to be long over do anything past 6 month expited registration is subject ot automatic tow did you know that ..(no i did not) i really don't want to tow this vehicle . the reason
4:40 am
why he was stopped for a cell phone violation you have fix it tickets for your registration.. this driver was also seen with no seatbelts . she also was missing one important document do you know who the car is registed according to the driver she bought the car from craigslist but couldn't afford to register the vehicle so basically the car could be towed . i tried to talk to the driver but she gave me the cold shoulder you don't want to talk to me? nope i don't have toin both cases the vehicles could be towed . but once a officer decides to tow a car that officer is out of comission for a min of 1 hour each decision is on a case by case basis and your provious driver record could have a huge impact oh by the way: the driver of the truck reappeared with all the documents and the fix it ticket was signed off but i was still behaving badly my advice .. have all your documents in order. oh and don't be caught riding dirtyim not going to sit here and watch you leave but you're an adult co you can make your decision but if i catch you driving again i'm going to tow
