> #1 my father is a cop. there is NOTHING stating you must do anything more than use a directional to pass on a dotted yellow. do they have to live up to a higher standard? yes you bet they do… and they provide a public service to which ALL of us should be grateful for. day in and day out. they dont ask for a thank you or for any recognition. they worry about being shot, stabbed, or worse every day they go to work. what other JOB do you know of that requires you to wear a bullet proof vest as part of your wardrobe whether its -20_F or 110_F. these men and women deserve more respect than anyone and what do they get? called pigs? spit on, shot at as part of their daily lives. by you questioning his judgement that means you think you are in a position to do so. you sir are far from. one of us should be so lucky as to be able to see the world through your eyes because you are quite the individual… in your own eyes.:Idiots
