Got pulled over for talking
Got pulled over for talking on his cell phone which lead to a DWI. Kudos for nabbing him, but really ~ what's it going to take to enforce the cell phone law? I rarely see reports of individuals being ticketed for cell phone use. Of course, texting is now the BIG issue; which is just as bad, if not worse that talking on the phone.
Gosh, graduated in '82 ~ didn't own a computer or a cell phone & I got along alright. Crazy how things have changed. To this day I still don't own a cell phone & don't see it in my near future. Can't live without the computer though!! Ha.
Remember when cell phones
Remember when cell phones first arrived? They were like little suit cases with a shoulder strap. Some people can talk on the phone while driving and others can't. Texting while driving is a different story, though. It's like trying to read a book while driving. Dialing a cell phone requires a quick glance and it's done. By the way, police are exempt from cell phone laws and seat belt laws.
How many people eat and drink coffee while driving? I do. How many people drive in the rain with their headlights off? I saw a trooper in Canandaigua driving in the rain with his headlights off on july 29th even though it's against state law. I wonder if I can legally pull over a trooper and issue a citizens ticket when they break the traffic laws?
I see people doing things that are far more dangerous than talking on the damn cell phone while driving like tailgating, weaving in and out of lanes just to get 1 or 2 spaces up in traffic, coming into intersections way too fast, driving too slow on the expressway and doing so in the left lane, driving with headlights off in the rain or too close to sunrise/sunset, changing lanes without looking or signaling..etc.
Why is everyone so hot on the cell phone thing and why do we need laws against it? If you're talking on the phone while driving and cause an accident, you're already reckless driving. There's already a traffic law that covers it.
Boyce should not have a DWI
Boyce should not have a DWI charge, he was under the legal limit.
Was Boccaccio's car searched to find these pills?

I hate the State Troopers. Don't they have anything better to do then harass motorists. Be a real cop and search for rapists and murders, quit being a tax collector for the state.
Peter-while I concur that
Peter-while I concur that these officers shouldn't be generating revenue for the state, I think hate is a pretty strong emotion. Now, if we were talking lawyers, I could see the need for that level of emotion.

I hate the State Troopers.
Sounds like someone has an issue with authority figures.
Hate? Wow, strong language.
When your main job is to sit
When your main job is to sit in a car and catch those nasty speeders so that NY can get even more cash, you are useless.
Peter, while I can't agree
Peter, while I can't agree that I hate state troopers, I CAN say that I dislike a few of them. I drive route 20 from Suicide corners to West River road every day on my way to Henrietta. For the first time in almost 6 years of driving that road I got pulled over on Mother's day morning by officer Dodge. The police are heavy in that stretch of Rt 20 and sure do generate a lot of money. Anyway, I explained to officer Dodge that my speedometer had just been replaced (at a cost of $400) and that I didn't think I had been speeding. He wasn't hearing anything I was saying and simply said "too bad" here's your ticket. What a prick. Like I wasn't already broke enough. Being young, I guess he has things to prove to someone. I drive that route, 70 miles per day, every work day and had never been pulled over which means I watch my speed but he just wouldn't listen. So, yeah, some of them are just unbending and it's not about doing what's right to them. My ticket was reduced when I talked to the York town justice and the D.A.. The resulting fine wasn't bad but the state tacked on an $85 surcharge which is soon to go to $125. If you get a ticket for anything, the state will demand their $125 on top of whatever fine you are imposed. That's another slap in the face from our unelected governor. Don't get me going!
