So I go to court Thursday for a traffic citation from 2 years ago. Long story short, car pulled infront of me, I hit brakes, I tapped the other car. No damage to either vehicle, no paint trade, no dents (it was under 5mph), no insurance claims, no health claims, cop did not see the incident and just responded per my phone call to cover my own butt. Officer wrote me for "failure to control speed", which is Texan for "was in an accident and I think he's at fault"


I pled not guilty, and am going off the basis of the state cannot meet its burden of proof and prove its case as the officer didn't witness the accident and there was no physical evidence that an accident had even occurred.



Debating if I want to wear my Paramedic uniform. If I do, I can A) Claim I just came from work, B ) I drive emergency vehicles, so I can drive safely, and C) Show my CEVO card... and and D) Claim I can't pay the $400 ticket as I don't make any money. Or would it be too obvious?:p



Heck, it was 2 years ago, so hopefully the officer doesn't even show up.


wearing your uniform may be over the top. You can simply state that fact that you drive emergency vehicles for a living... if you think that might make the judge NOT make an example out of you.

I thought in your posts about the 11th on Facebook that you were talking about the iPad release date. ha ha, guess I'm a nerd.

...still counting down the days to the 11th myself, gonna be one of the first ones in line for iPad 2. On the way back through from getting my iPad 2, I am gonna sell my iPad 1 back to best buy as part of their buy back program.

Linuss, it will provide you a bigger screen so you can take the video of the accident when mayhem strikes.

Plus, I love my iPad. I am developing some pretty awesome medical apps that are going to hit the app store soon. iOS 4.3 is going to add even more functionality as well.

If you showed up to court here in your Ambulance Officer uniform you'd get fired.

So, um, Brown says no.

Not EMS related.....but.....it's a little disturbing when this happens like five miles from your home.

Federal authorities have arrested at least one person allegedly connected to a backpack bomb found during a Martin Luther King parade in January.....Viewers in Stevens County told KHQ at least nine FBI vehicles sped towards a house near Highway 395 south of Colville. At least two counter-assault vehicles were also at the house, according to the viewer.

Ladies and gentleman, thanks to the electronic version of Annie, I am now CPR certified for another two years. Your applause and standing ovation is not necessary. Thank you.

A couple of weeks ago, they found a pipe bomb in one of our US Bank Buildings, they cleared the area and had the EOD team take care of it.
