fucking oxygen theiving police

[Azuras]

Soooo

driving on Roe today (in my laden semi truck) i notice a 4wd towing a trailer with what looked to be a few cube like cages with one cylinder cage inside the open end, kinda like russian nesting cages...
These cages were roped over the top and down to the trailer and then the tail of the rope around the back of the cube and then what would have started as being over the top of the cylinder cage as it was longer than the cube cage it was in.

so the cube cages were find because they were in the trailer and held down, but the cylinder being longer stuck out the back of the trailer and on top of the trailer rear gate
and as he was driving along it was working its way out the ass until it got to the point where it was mainly out and the rope and just holding it counterlever style off the ass of the trailer, the entire way im watching this thing threaten to fall out and take out a car or god forbid a bike

Oh forgot to mention the dimensions

looked close to 1 metre in diameter and 1.5 meters long. thick mesh (steel ) caging for its walls and some kind of steel sheet/plate for its end caps
probably weighed over 50kgs, wouldnt be surprised if closer to 100kgs.

so yes, to the point where police are revenue raising oxygen theives




coming up to the Row/Kwinana southbound merge
cop sitting there (as usual) unoccupied and pointing his radar at people
Everyone slows down to around 50km/hr because thats what rubbernecking retards do when passing a cop

i blow my airhorn to get cops attention
cop looks at me
i signal "look there" and point at trailer
cop looks at trailer
cop looks shocked
cop turns around and continues pointing radar at oncoming traffic

fucken useless cunts, obvious insecure load threatening to cause mayhem on a major freeway and the potential to kill
not important, im saving lives by stopping people from speeding




i hope all cops catch an insecure load through their windscreens

one cop with a hairdryer acts a bit aloof

one motorcyclist acts like a tool on the road

I hope all motorcyclists die horribly

Yeah but the OP has a point. I went past those same coppers at the same point today ( in my pocket road train ), they always sit there, pinging people that slowed down from 100 - 80 5 metres too late. Why don't they sit a couple of keys up Roe and ping people for doing well over 100 like they do? Fucken' maggots, it's blatant revenue collecting, nothing more nothing less, and they wonder why I want to run over them with my truck every time I see them.

probably that lazy cunt who stickers parked bikes...

on that matter I was talking to a mate over lunch today, he's a fmr assistant commissioner, and the idea is that if the public report blatantly dumb shit someone would talk to them and try to educate them. Obviously you can't teach an idiot, nor can you fire them - job for life n all that

reasonable enough concept I guess, but all pointless though apparently. 1st you do need to go to a station to make a complaint, and the car/cop number, which is kinda inconvenient.
Though it's not inconvenient for vexatious complaints .. average of 150 / day (this was a couple years back when he retired) from people complaining about rough treatment when being arrested. All of which need investigation, and 99.99% just bullshit complaints from meth heads, pissheads, fuckwits and other cunts who would properly benefit from being flogged the piss out of anyhow. The cops even take them to the station to fill in the paperwork

So there's limited resources, and prioritization of complaints... your's stating that the cop didn't do something will likely never get looked at, just as the one I filled in today about cunts stickering FE's

excellent point, but he wasnt aloof.
Dude saw it, clear as day
chose not to do it most likely because it was too much work to get into his car, turn lights on and travel up the emergency lane that he was already in and pull the guy over

fucks sake i tried my best to catch up to this dude to try and get him to secure his load
when i didnt have the speed to do this i tried to stay behind him at all times because if it fell off and I collected it it would either be rendered into a flat object that cars and riders would at least have a chance of avoiding OR would have become wedged into my bullbar as it tried to get under me

now its not my job to make the roads a safer place and try prevent accidents whenever i see the potential yet this is what i tried to do

Recap
tried to alert offending driver
tried to cover other road users from harm
tried to alert a police officer of the problem (and succeeded)

i expect someone getting taxpayer money as a source of income with the job of making roads a safe place and preventing crimes etc to do at least as much as a member of the public.

if one can not do that it must be a reflection of his chain of command and training


ergo, one cop reflects all in his actions

ergo my desire for them to catch what they choose to ignore in the windscreen stands



i mean shit, if all hes looking for is chances to ticket people then he watched one drive past him opting for an easier one where he can just point at someone and the ticketee comes to him
lazy revenue raising oxygen theives

Geez you were lucky to not get booked for tailgating!

How do you know?

This is an absolute bullshit statement, and you know it.

Wishing serious harm to anyone makes you a complete cunt.

Why are you blaming the guys standing by the side of the road? They are only doing their job and following orders...

Again, just a guy doing his job and following his orders. It doesn't make him a cunt. And FE's are illegal. The law is the law whether you agree with it or not.

Don't really see this thread going anywhere positive.

TLDR:
Cops do what they're told. If you don't think they are focused on the correct things to enforce, bitch to your local government.
