and another story on just how shitty the police are.
I was passenger in my friends car who got pulled over for a dui. The reason he was pulled over according to the police was for no seatbelt, but we both had seatbelts on. The cop testified under oath that from the rear he saw my friends hand reach well above his head to put the seatbelt on after in the process of being pulled over.
The problem with this pigs story was we were in a Ford explorer that has the seatbelt built in to the seat, thus impossible for the cop being able to see my friend reach for a seatbelt above his head.
His lawyer made the cop demonstrate exactly what he claimed to see. I was in the courtroom and I was so excited to see this asshole lie in open court, mostly because I knew what was coming next.
See, prior the trial, me and my friend completely removed the front seat of the explorer, to use as evidence that the cop was full of shit.
The look on the cops face was priceless when we carried in the actual car seat, which clearly showed that what the cop demonstrated was impossible. My friend did blow over the limit, but the whole thing was thrown out and I would assume to cop was disciplined.
