Highway 58 Speed Trap Lacrosse VA, Police Abuse of Power On Out of State Tags & Motorists?

[fawkUtube]

every time i get a ticket it is a family affair. Everytime its a game, Everytime i go to court knowing full well even if i had 20 witnesses i will be found guilty i plead not guilty get found guilty appeal wait til my appeal date request a jury trial ... yet another continuance , get my lawyer to continue it.... and basically drag the whole process out for 2 years and have had half of my charges dropped this way ... I have never purchased a sticker a license a license plate or paid a fine.

[sermadness]

@GootubEbaypalTAKEOVA Thanks true, now tell that to the cops as he is writing you the ticket and maybe then you will notice how silly that sounds.. "I am sorry officer, I was doing 20 miles over the speed limit because I didn't want to be cut off" I never understood when people bitch and scream about themselves breaking a law. You guys are not mad at the cops, your mad at yourself for getting caught. SLOW DOWN!.

[darksyde412]

@sermadness amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fawkUtube]

@sermadness When is the last time you were able to maintain a 3 second following distance on i64? The answer-----> never

[fawkUtube]

@fawkUtube you would have to drive in reverse to maintain a 3 second following distance on i64

[sermadness]

you know how hard it is to get a speeding ticket if YOU DONT SPEED!!!!!

[CryptoDriver]

@GootubEbaypalTAKEOVA LOL... "Selling your soul"... Tell yourself whatever you gotta tell yourself kid... I'm a man, not a scared little youtuby pussy who wouldn't say "Boo" to a shoplifter, let alone a hardened criminal. Your life is a sick joke.

[fawkUtube]

@CryptoDriver Your being replaced with cameras LOL

[HighWay58speedTrap]

it was dropped because i was not speeding, the dashcam video was requested via FOIA (never provided) n the tickets I was making copies of at the courthouse were very damaging.

Funny how the police chief resigned (or was quietly fired) during all the 'hoopla', n the town lost a TON of revenue from these pacing tickets.

But if election year works for you, stay with that.

I was NOT speeding, and had I not had my camera, I would have had little to say about the lie.

U must be a county official

[HighWay58speedTrap]

darksyde412 , the case was dropped by the DA Nora Miller, because I WAS NOT SPEEDING.

When i began making copies of all the false pacing charges passed out by the city, she came down to the court house and dropped all the charges.

Funny how that worked out...

:)

[darksyde412]

@HighWay58speedTrap It was dropped bc of all the whining and "hoop-la"

and it was an election year. You think just bc yours was dropped meant that the case was invalid? See the system doesn't actually work and you are just part of the reason Welcome to the judicial system........

[darksyde412]

@HighWay58speedTrap it was dropped from all the "hoopla" as you say. I feel sorry for you if you actually believe it was ANYTHING else. Because it SURE was not that you were NOT speeding. But glad you got your way and you are not in that area any longer. Have fun with other officers. Please drive safely...buckle up...do not drive while operating a hand held camera.and most importantly please drive the speed limit. It is there for your safety and for the safety of others

[darksyde412]

omg you are so full of yourself You were caught speeding and you even admitted to it in your video at 4:25 you stated you always set your cruise to 65 when it is CLEARLY posted that it is a 50mph zone. There is not ONE place on Hwy 58 that is 65mph so I don't know where you have been driving??

[Historymook]

va cops suck. wanna be bullies with a gun. They uphold the law but dont respect it themselves

[darksyde412]

@Historymook Cops are a necessary evil. I hope the next time you are being held at gun point or have been in an horrible accident you remember NOT to call the cops

[musclecarluvr1]

GAS $2.59/gal !!!

[Dondarkcatcher]

@musclecarluvr1

GAS $7,38/gal at my gasstation right now.

[edviperrrr]

I agree with you. We feel we´ve been abused on most times a cop pulls us over.

It´s just about money.

[raneve23]

Get a life

[sokalove42]

gas 2.59?? Boy I miss those days and I REALLY REALLY miss when gas was 1.30.

[theguyisinthailand]

was it a school zone/bad conditions or any slow moving traffic?

the 50 is a "suggested speed" and not an "absolute speed" restriction as a school or other posted law/ordnance...

this is a civil crime and is just for revenue and you will have to pay.

cities need money and cops have to write tickets or put people in jail to then pay for other costs that will be heaped on em...

[erkme73]

Get yourself one of the very affordable all-in-one blackbox recorders that record everything on (HD) video - GPS speed, audio and video. Stick it to your windshield, and forget about it. They record anytime you're driving, and in cases like this, they're priceless. Don't reveal you have it until trial - then you ask the judge to sanction the officer for lying.

[DominoStorm1]

What waist of a video. Plead not guilty and Tell it to the judge dick weed not the entire world through you tube

[cavaliers60]

The fact that you call people sheep means you are just another one of those idiots who think everyone's out to get you...

[GUALLACOL]

@cavaliers60 No!!! It means to wake the fuck up and see what is happening to this country. Stand up for your rights. Assert your rights, and let them know that WE THE PEOPLE... are in charge, not them!!! Read the constitution once in a while so you can refresh your brain.

[HighWay58speedTrap]

hey crypto driver, you kiss your boyfriend with that mouth, bro? at its apex, its a great question. ah, the internet

[CryptoDriver]

Who'd have thought back in the day that after all the years of innovation, hard work and creativity that we'd have the ability to send video and documents across the world in the blink of eye using machines that would have been unthinkable just 25 years ago? Even more, who'd have thought that all that the apex use of all that power would be used... by a crybaby who got a speeding ticket to imagine himself as some sort of warrior for freedom. Ah, the internet.

[darksyde412]

@CryptoDriver haha Couldn"t have said it better!!! He"s a very big crybaby. And he WAS speeding and got a ticket. WOW the system worked!!!!

[TheWowsecretsite]

Video taping while driving, dumbass. Darwin's theory in effect.

[rosederek88]

and fawkUtube is a dumbass

[rosederek88]

hey jay gb87 i disagree with you im not a cop i have no family or friends that are cops and i was arrested for a dub of weed so i have had dealings with them so youre wrong bubb

[fawkUtube]

Bye BYe 4th Amendment, what with warrantless wiretaps, searching laptops, TSA agents groping people, etc. And the Supreme Court just took a huge chunk out of the 4th Amendment in saying that police can raid homes without a warrant if there are "exigent circumstances" even if those "exigent circumstances" are created by the police themselves. Im here to warn you Virginia cops All ye who enter here in my castle Gets a hole in the face PERIOD per 2nd amendment of the constitution.

[darksyde412]

@fawkUtube God I wish I knew where your front door was.......I'd show you just how well the 2nd amendment works for me too on the other side of that door

[fawkUtube]

@darksyde412 You don't want to come to my front door. I'm well trained in explosives and my favorite is trip wire. See what you pigs and pig supporters don't get is WE THE PEOPLE don't need you. We don't need a legal gang who pulls people over for doing the exact same thing they are pulling people over for. I love it when a pig turns his lights on to get through a red light to go through a drive thru at McDonalds or when a pig rides me on the interstate i brake check the faggot.

[fawkUtube]

@darksyde412 All it would take is a cop to ask me to get out of my vehicle and i would open fire... it's that simple.

[darksyde412]

@fawkUtube please come thru so I can stop you. See how long you hide behind a computer. Wonder how much you will cry like all the other big shots while in cuffs sitting in a patrol car Cant wait to see you on COPS

[fawkUtube]

@darksyde 2nd amendment guarantees i have the right to kill anyone trying to take away my FREEDOM or personal liberty's the 2nd amendment is our guarantee that the American people can NEVER be oppressed..but if a pawn should so try, he should so die.You should look into "right to travel" Technically i don't have to produce a license have a license plate or have any stickers on my car per say of the constitution and you cant do anything about it. Imagine if everyone was this informed

[CryptoDriver]

@fawkUtube You're an idiot. You ain't got the fucking balls do anything, so shut your cock holster.

[darksyde412]

@fawkUtube o you talk alot of shit but i guarantee you have THAT license you have THAT license plate  you have THOSE stickers haha just a shit talker who cannot even back up his own words!! You are a hypocrit!!

[CryptoDriver]

@fawkUtube Nah... ya wouldn't. You're a chump. Plain and simple, end of story.

[fawkUtube]

@CryptoDriver COPS: the only counter productive leeches of society who enjoy fucking their fellow citizen for the system. Writing tickets to embezzle the American tax payers income because you couldn,t make anything of your self in life, so you steal from someone who did. If you asked 100 people if they need, want ,respect,or like pigs you will get 90 people saying let the fuckers burn the other 10% have family in law enforcement.

[CryptoDriver]

@fawkUtube Meh... none of that shit you spewed out of your cock holster made any sense. You're nothing.

[darksyde412]

@fawkUtube I cant wait for you to need help or rescue because I am so sure you will be crying for those "pigs" then!

[fawkUtube]

@darksyde412 Haha I carry a 10mm everywhere go i need no "assistance" anywho i have family who has concerns for me going to jail for shooting a faggot revenue collector for the commonwealth out (for the common mans wealth) they put the stickers on my car bought my plates and pay my fines cause Id rather die then do it =) Aight.

[fawkUtube]

Fuck virginia cops they all need to be executed fucking lying pigs.  Worst then child molesters . Atleast we can laugh at the 21 gun salutes .

[DavidLister6000]

lame....

[sforcesrcg]

this guy did all this work for nothing. none of this has any relavance whatsoever to trying to get out of a speeding ticket. people dont understand the way it works. we dont target out of state drivers, can u tell the difference of one plate to another in the dark or, long distances, other vehicles in the roadway or from the side. this is the same excuse i hear people claiming they were pulled over because of there color. if u get caught speeding, suck it up and stop speeding.

[sidehop]

Who cares, he won. Not all cops are the same. My uncle is a 20+ year veteran and know some douchebag cops within or near this area. Profiling? Happens ALL the time.

[ExtremePeppers]

Who sets cruise control during city traffic?

[sforcesrcg]

your video means nothing. is your vehicleS odometer calibrated? no. is the troopers? yes?

just because the CA dropped the charges doesnt mean the trooper was wrong. it just means the CA dropped the charges. it depends on the mood of the CA and several other factors. mind you i am not taking your side or the troopers.

i had the same situation where i activated my radar because i saw someone coming at a high rate of speed. i swiveled the radar got a speed, and got a higher one by pace

[NeVeRsCuRd]

@sforcesrcg Pig!

[RayAir1]

Should people go to Home Depot and buy a box of roofing nails and throw them out in locations where cops sit for speed traps?

[NeVeRsCuRd]

@RayAir1 Yes

[throttlehard]

FACT; The posted speed limit is just a revenue generator - not a safety device. Speeding tickets are a $4.5 to $6 billion industry in America.

Speed limits, while originally designed to conserve fuel during the energy crisis of the 1970s, have grown into a cash cow for states and municipalities—and they don't want you to know how much they're making off of speeding tickets.

[rasputinsdog]

Of course, the poster's biggest mistake is thinking anyone cares about the history of his misfortunes. Move on. Just sayin'.

[throttlehard]

@rasputinsdog

Wrote, "..the posters biggest mistake is thinking anyone cares about the history of his misfortunes. Move on."

My response; Yeah, if it was as simple as "moving on" but unfortunately, it isn't. You see, there are the repercussions of having one's insurance premiums increased, loss of jobs, suspension of driving privilege, etc. Ya catch my drift? So, while the dirty cop is busy robbing someone of their honest earnings, he is also ruining their life at the same time as well, no?

[darksyde412]

@throttlehard if the poster didnt speed he wouldn't recieve a ticket End of story and of whining

[HelluvaBadShot]

how much more absurd? He could've tased you

[dirtydonki]

Cops are just Tax collectors in fancy dress

[utbigpapa]

Right on bro!  Congrats on winning this case. It's good to hear they don't always come out on top of their unjust and false incrimination of citizens

[mitchmodeliki]

Nice , wide road and speed limit 50? It is ill !!

[zybeco]

That Lacrosse cop is out there everyday the best thing to do is to go 5 under from Lacrosse to Emporia . The Greenville county cops are just as bad as Barney Fife is in Lacrosse.

[vbdenny]

Everyone knows 58 is a speed trap. I go 5 under when they have their radar running.

[rasputinsdog]

@vbdenny

What's a 'speed trap'? What does that mean exactly? If someone is speeding, they're speeding. So, what's a trap?

[vbdenny]

@rasputinsdog Speeding is realtive. Small towns set speed limits artifically slow and that is done for the reason of making revenue. It is called a trap because it IS a trap. Don't get caught up in all this, buy a good detector and you'll be pretty safe. In addition, nothing wrong with speeding, almost everyone does, the rest cause traffic backups.

[JayGB87]

I hate 95% of police, anyone who has ever had dealings with the police know they are full of shit and will do anything to incriminate you.

If you are a victim they treat you like a criminal, if you are a criminal they treat you less than human.

The only people that will disagree with this statement are police, people who have family or friends that are police, or people that have had no dealings with police in their life.

[GunNut12680]

@JayGB87 i agree totally

[believin13]

i do agree with this guy. the law dogs do lie, especially STATE BOYS.

[Tungsten23]

may i suggest a faster car with a low profile paint? try a camaro or mustang ora challenger, if u want to evade. u needa faster car.

[macpro123]

Cops suck

[precisethoughts]

everything in regards to "law" in Lacrosse or South Hill VA is a crock of shit. I've personally been pulled over with out of state tags myself in the same location.

[jayzeus999]

I agree, this was a shocking display of police abuse.

*is white*

[MrBadfish2]

I'm glad you beat it.. but honestly you're very lucky you had a "nice" (and dumb) cop that pulled you over..I've been through a few states if they saw you filming like that and you questioned them the same way.. they would have pulled you through the window and kicked the shit out of you and broke your camera

[Tungsten23]

a police tracker is optional..

[Tungsten23]

get a faster car, a radar detector, and a laser jammer and you're all set.

[kawirider206]

@Tungsten23 Not quite, troopers have laser and radar detectors, plus you can hold the radar beam until you see the car and let it go, then its too late for your jammer or detector to work

[Caveman6666x]

@Tungsten23 Or just waste the lying fuck pig. Enough people did that, maybe it'd keep them honest.

[sociopathicregret]

The problem is not just with this though, though this may be a glaring example. The whole system is bullshit honestly.

[ARBuilder1776]

This Sublimize23 has to be a cop. This guy just oozes prickness like most cops do. I bet he's even one of those short dumpy cops with the cheesy copstash and thinks he's cool cause he can pull women over and flirt with them. I'm glad you beat this ticket.

[TerryDavid57]

Highway58SpeedTrap Man, Disregard the braindead, mindcontrolled, sheeple that are criticizing you for standing up for your rights. They resent that you believe in freedom.

[deathsythe164]

I think this is brilliant, great job man. I'm happy to hear the charges were dropped, and even they hadn't prior to the court date, the fact that you were going 2 over the limit and recorded all of that, they easily would have dropped the charges either way. Props!

[Jon19]

Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth.

[j6282]

what brand of gum are you chewing

[c061997]

What a crybaby.  Go the speed limit and you won't get a ticket

[HighWay58speedTrap]

let's see.

got a video proving me right.

got a nasa analysis does the same.

got the commonwealth attorney to drop all charges BEFORE court in march.

me. win.

you. apparently a sheep.

just sayin'

[sociopathicregret]

@HighWay58speedTrap Hes just some neocon asshole with no perspective who probably speeds anyway.

[jim80NES]

don't listen to these goombas...you werent at fault

[sociopathicregret]

@c061997 You're such a mindless twat. Shut the fuck up.

[psmtheman]

@c061997 hes right. youre a sheep.

[arthurkirakosyan7]

@c061997 Just let the government fuck u over....they purposely set low speed limit so they can give us tickets. Most highways in California say 65 how many people out of 100 go 65? like 2 and it pisses people off. Go research on what a speed trap is. It's the government fucking us over.

[sociopathicregret]

@c061997 learn engineering dumbass

[barcodeone]

emporia,va is the worst on the us 58 highway, before interstate 95 juction, write the virginia polictians, that's what im doing to hopefully rid the speedtraps there too.

[Highwaycrazy]

You don't use km/h speed limits?

[rocketsoccer1]

this is interesting. but i live in california. so idk why im watching this.

[vision1diecast]

Im not sure operating the camcorder while you were driving shows particularly good judgement on your part.

[HighWay58speedTrap]

you must not be familiar with a flipcam?

super small, and one touch recording, and in the case of this 'traffic ticket', invaluable to actually have available.

[mrsswilkins09]

you are exactly right-- people are pulled over numberous times in that exact town. they target out of towners-- the town makes money off of these exact people that dont fight it or know how to fight it -- in fact they had a article in the paper awhile back about the local business complaining about the police bothering the customers because they were pulling so many people over in there parking lots and disturbing their business --look into that it was in the Enterprise Paper

[sumofnone3]

I'm confused.....so were you speeding or not? Also distance dosen't mean a thing in court. You have no proof to back up your story. Can you get the dash cam video from the police dept. of your traffic stop?

[HighWay58speedTrap]

no, I was not speeding, the sped limit was 50, and my cruise was set to 50.

The NASA scientist refutes the stop as 'impossible' based on her math and physics analysis, as seen on our main site

[Sublimize23]

@HighWay58speedTrap Dog. It's obvious that your cruise control's "50mph" is wrong. Your car, while you were driving it, exceeded the speed limit. I'm not really sure how that doesn't count as speeding. It doesn't help you're being a huge bitch about probably a $100 fine. What did the judge say in court?

[HighWay58speedTrap]

u must live in a different country than me.

when i'm accused of something i did not do, i don't just agree and go quietly into the night...

court is not until 22 mar, 2010.

i'm sure the judge, mayor and cops in this town have all been a mile or two over the speed limit today.

you, too.

pay a fine and agree to this nonsense?

wrong answer...

[Sublimize23]

So getting a reading on radar higher than the posted speed limit, twice is not your fault? I think I'm missing something here. Let me give you a little spoiler alert for your court date: The judge is not going to believe that you "had the cruise control set for 50." He is going to side with the physical evidence of your vehicle traveling on radar faster than the posted speed limit, while you were operating it. I cannot believe there are people as stupid as you are still kicking today.

[newdarnaccount]

@Sublimize23

I'd say something about you, but Sarah Palin wouldn't like it. Why don't you haul your "smart" butt to a country more your style--say North Korea?

[HighWay58speedTrap]

all charges DROPPED by the commonwealth attorney BEFORE court in March.

She came and did it in person.

the world doesn't need more sheep, but if that's what your comfortable being, graze on, sublimize dude.

graze on.

just sayin'

[angelaxoxox]

@HighWay58speedTrap i so happy that the charges was drop don't listen to some of these ppl they think they know everything but if it was them they be sing the blues they just don't have the smarts to think to do what u did and know there rights so keep doing what your doing i wish i had new that i could video tap when times i got pulled over

[gtasalova6969]

@HighWay58speedTrap In some states, driving with a camera in your hand is against the law!

[couturexlove1]

@Sublimize23 wow sublimize23 chill out.

[angelaxoxox]

@HighWay58speedTrap don't wait your time on sublimize23 he don't know what the hell he is talking about he just a kid judge by they way he talks i am sure he has gotten pulled over a cried life a baby him self so forget him you done the right thing if you had not you would had paid the fine and all charges was dropped cause you was in the right

[sociopathicregret]

@HighWay58speedTrap Hes another 'conservative' idiot who suscribes to this 'follow the law and you wont have trouble' bullcrap. First, thats not entirely true. Second, these guys never stop to think that the law might be unfair? Third theyre just parroting "its the law its the law its the law' without thinking about the situation, they'd probably be speeding too. I hate these assholes who live in bubbles, theyre the reason our govt is allowed to step on our rights like this and many other ways.

[Sublimize23]

Didn't see you actually took the time to make a website. Man up and pay the fine, quit speeding.

[HighWay58speedTrap]

pay for something i did not do?

makes ZERO sense, hence the website and videos...

right is right, and wrong is wrong, badge or not, sublimize23

[sociopathicregret]

@Sublimize23 Go fall in a hydroelectric plant intake

[Sublimize23]

You're mad
