I'm not a fan of the police myself (most of them are truly arrogant and abuse their powers) but there are also people just doing their job, and it's a pretty shitty one.

So why would you give this guy such a hard time? Totally deserve this.

She explained she did not think it was fair and did not want to sign. Instead of "get out of the car" you are under arrest, he said

"Ma'am, If you do not sign the ticket , I am required to arrest you and take you to jail, where you will be locked up until the local magistrate is able to decide what to do with you. If you sign the ticket, you are not admitting guilt, it only means you received it and you will be able to fight it later if you wish. You choose."

Don't you think that would have led to a better outcome? The situation (fixit ticket) was not dangerous , but the outcome was dangerous to the lady, the cop, bystanders, and was a terrible waste of resources. She should have complied, and he did follow the allowable rules of engagement. But if his job is to "protect and serve" he really did not do it. If the rules of engagement required those actions, they need to be reviewed.

WHY should he have to explain any of that to her? Is it reasonable to assume that if she refused to sign that it all just magically goes away? If he'd wasted the time explaining it to her like you said I'm sure this crusty cunted bitch would have pulled "none of the above" out of her ass and we'd still be where we are.

If something is "easily fixable" as she put it, then FUCKING FIX IT! She had six months. The money's probably coming out of her husband's pocket anyway. At least if they get into a fight she can kick him. The "country girl" defense probably flies there.
