To make it short I saved my friend once by getting him out of a reckless driving ticket. He spun his wheels in a parking lot and I called a friend I work with in the department to have it pulled. I only did it cause he was my best friend and couldnt afford anymore points. He swore to me he would calm it down so he didnt lose his license and make me look like a dumbass for covering his ass.
He did it again 3 weeks ago got a ticket 75 in a 45, cop let him off for street racing though. Worst part was not that he had a 16 year old minor in the car (my ex gf now best friend who I care a ton about) but that he called me up and asked me to help him out... before cop had even come to his window and he was askin if I could talk to the cop or call my friend again and save him. As soon as the cop did his stuff I let my friend have it from me... I think had he let me talk to the cop I would of told the cop of the other reckless and his other tickets and his attitude and that he needed to be taken in for the night :fm: This makes his 6th ticket in 6 months including the reckless I had pulled. 69 in a 50, 61 in a 45, 50 in a 35 and no seatbelt, spinning his tires and now this 75 in a 45.
Even now he hasent slowed down but now he says "I have nothing to lose" as he figures he is already in deep shit come the 11th (court date). I have since distanced myself from him as he was pulling me down and was not someone I wanted to be a friend of when things went south. His mentality is that he wants a faster car so he could just keep going and get away from the cops. He doesnt listen to me when I try to give him the facts about running.
I know I need to remove myself from him as he can only pull me down and damage my future career as a LEO and he was one of those friends that alwasy expected me to pull his ass out of the fire. I am so pissed off I almost feel inclined (if I even could) to go to court and make a case against him as I think he really needs to learn his lesson. When I got the other ticket pulled the deputy said that the ticketing officer has the right to reissue the ticket if she feels its necessary for the next 6 months... should I get intouch with her and inform her of his recent actions and see if she decided to reissue it?
LEO's ----ONLY---- persional feelings, thoughts, ideas... what would you do, what should I do. Maybe I am just to angry and just need to let the system do its job and stay away from him until he has cleaned up his act if he ever does.
