Am I the only one that saw FTP, and was suprised when it wasn’t a question about downloading files. >_<
Courtesy laws are a big pet peve of mine.
And to say the FUCK THE POLICE for doing their job is a bit harsh for someone who parked illegally. If I ever got pulled over for speeding, I’m the first to admit I was wrong. And as far as signals, I wish that was enforced as much as speeding, same with headlights in the rain or snow, tailgating, ect.
Follow the law, otherwise don’t bitch about cops.
I think its funny, how ANYONE can bitch about police, when they fucked up.
Its shitty that your car got fucked up, maybe that should have been the basis of your rant, not those “asshole cops.”
i know i was gonna email you and be like hey fuzzy…
I thought it was going to be some new phrase like For The Pussy/Penis or something I could despise.
OMGHI2U, FTP FTW LOL.
:tdown:
:ohnoes:
It was one of the first thoughts in my mind…but the !!! and the grumpy face made me dismiss that idea almost immediately.
hypothetically,
i don’t care if i parked illegally, if someone “towed” my car away to move it for whatever reason, and they damaged it… fuck that, motherfucker is going to get sued. i would rather the car get impounded than find my car on some side street damaged.
everyone is on the same logic as “well the guy ran, so the police have the right to beat the shit out of him and break both of his legs”…
the kid was parked illegally —> illegal
someone towed the car —> legal
someone damaged the car —> illegal
unless its the same like when you park in front of a firehydrant and the firemen can break your windows to run the hose… but i dont think the same law applies to this situation.
the fine for parking illegaly and them towing your car is OK … not fucking it up and then a fine.
thats like some1 getting pulled over for dark tint n the cops smashes their windows out so they arent dark nemore… ITS OK… THEY WERE DOING SOMETHING ILLEGAL
fags…
I doubt the police, or the tow trucker driver, intentionally pinched the return line to the power steering pump just because he parked illegally. It was an unforseen side effect of the car being towed because he had parked illegally. Had he simply looked around and seen that he was not allowed to park where he was and moved the car, NONE of this wouldn’t have happened.
I’m not trying to stick up for the police or anyone in this matter. Its a simple case of he shouldn’t have bitched in the first place because its his fault.
I don’t know the laws specifically, but I would imagine that if a car is being towed for illegal parking, the police/towing company are not liable for any damage to the car, within reason (scratches, a power steering pump f’ed up, etc.). Now if the car had been totaled, that’s another story.
To use an example Karzyjon used, if you park infront if a hydrant and the Fire Co. smashes your windows to gain access to the hydrant, they sure as hell aren’t cutting you a check for the windows, and you’d probably get a hefty ticket from the police at the same time.
In short (not directed at anyone inparticular)… USE THE PIECE OF FAT BETWEEN YOUR EARS CALLED A BRAIN!!! Its there for a reason, and if you put it to use, you can usually avoid annoying little situations like this.
:word: your definitely not gonna get shit for the repairs in any situation. If u park illegally, u have to keep in mind that they are gonna do whatever they have to do to get the car out. If u put the parking brake on and turn ur front wheels all the way to the side, they are either gonna drag the front or the back, whichever is easier for them to access. Ive seen them do it, drag fwd cars around a lot.
He obviuosly isnt expecting any kinda damage repair. He was just posting up to vent about his missfortune. He made a mistake by parking where he thought was ok because he saw other cars parked there with him. Its a lesson learned. The front bumper on his car is about to fall off, not to mention the power stearing line that was crushed. I am sure that there was a better way to tow the car besides wrecking it. wheel lock, e-brakes, etc etc, thats understandable. but the wreckless abandon that was used to tow the car damaging the front bumper, there is no excuse.
It amazes me the pleasure that people get outta other peoples mistakes and missfortune. This isnt something to laugh about but something used to help inform maybe??
If someone gets hit by a car from j walking and has a broken leg are we all gunna laugh at them and tell them how dumb they are??? people need to grow the fuck up and help be supportive of each other with a little bit of constructive critism.
Stop post whoreing unless you have something constructive to say.
Ask anyone who has ever walked with me downtown… I hate J walkers, and I wish more of their legs would be broken.
