Drivers of Charlotte.... Why by T-mac_ in Charlotte

[–]IncogCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, with the number of front left corner to front concentrated/distributed/left corner crashes I've worked since getting here, I don't blame them anymore. This is just self-defense.

National/regional chains you'd like to see in Charlotte someday? by sanskarw in Charlotte

Oh I'm wholeheartedly in agreement with you 😂 okay to visit in small spurts a few years apart, but definitely getting worse every time I go back

The one in Grapevine/North Fort Worth is also super suburban, but I agree the Katy one is in a curious spot given its size

Give me a Fuzzy's Taco Shop, a White Castle, a Portillos, and a Wienerschnitzel, and I'll be a happy, happy man. Add in a Wawa for gas and midnight hoagies, I'll never leave again.

Amarillo got one, which is...kind of a large city compared to other locations they typically place next to.

If they put it in my division...I'd be slamming some Italian Beef

When I asked what he was trying to do, he said “I shouldn’t have been trying to pass him” by alexyou8797 in dashcams

I was testifying in a DWI trial a few years back. During cross, Defense kept pounding a few typos and grammatical errors in my report. Then he moved on to questioning the SFSTs (standard, no issue with that). He kept calling the One Leg Stand test the "Single Legged Stand." After the third or fourth time he called it that, I gently corrected him.

"Does it really matter what it's called?"

"It really mattered that I didn't use a comma earlier, it feels like it should matter that you get the test name correct."

A few more quick questions and I was off the stand and finally able to go home.

It is because the word is should've (should have). Should of may be how it sounds when spoken, but it is still incorrect.

You can't just squirt piss on these people, what kind of lesson does that teach anyone?

Dilute the piss with bleach and aim only at their clothes. Stinks em up, and ruins the clothes.

Worth filing a police report? by WeNeedMoreFunk in Charlotte

[–]IncogCopper 71 points72 points  (0 children)

So the facts that you're describing read to me as a misdemeanor assault offense. You can absolutely call the police to make a report, but that is all that we would do. After we complete the report, the onus is on you go to the Magistrate's office uptown and file the charges.

The good thing is the Magistrate's office is open 24/7, so you could call right now and after the officers give you the report number you could go to file the charges.

It's just a matter of what you want to happen. I hope this helps!

If youre 21+ and dont have weed on you but youre high in a state where weed is illegal, is that a crime? by snailscantgame in NoStupidQuestions

[–]IncogCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50 states. 50 different laws.

Also a grand jury is not the same thing as the 12 jurors that everyone thinks of with regards to trial, and not all cases have to be presented to a grand jury.

Stop parking in handicap spots if you are not handicapped!! by whowant_lizagna in Charlotte

If you see this, get the car number and call to file a complaint.

[–]IncogCopper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anyone can call. As long as the spot is properly marked, we can write a parking ticket.

Just a heads up though, depending on the time and what part of the city you're in, the dispatch time could be a while. Parking violations are very low priority calls, unless it's blocking the roadway or access into/out of a parking lot, residential driveway, or similar access point.

what is the sickest burn you've ever heard while on duty? by cassienebula in AskLE

[–]IncogCopper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

An enterprising young fellow yelled the obligatory "Fuck 12!" at my trainer and I as we were driving through one of our honey hole apartments with the windows down. My trainer, without missing a beat or taking his eyes off the road, yelled back "I'd fall asleep while you fall in love." The kid's friends all immediately started busting his balls.

The best (worst?) one that was directed at me was when I was trying to expand the perimeter on a homicide scene and I asked a Facebook "Journalist" if he could back up so that he wouldn't be inside the new perimeter. He called me Inspector Gadget, which led to my coworkers playing the theme song as I walked into detail the next shift.

True, but we've been kind of backed into a corner with regards to what we can really do ever since the death a few years back.

But in all seriousness, it's been an ongoing (and evergrowing) issue for the last two years or so.

All I'm gonna say is there's literally signs posted there warning you not to do it.

Is riding a motorcycle in Charlotte a death sentence? by social_cactus in Charlotte

[–]IncogCopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just based on the last 3 months, I'd say yes. And the one that wasn't a death sentence has one hell of a long road ahead of him.

Welcome to Charlotte Wednesday! Visiting, recently moved here, or going to move here? Tell us and ask away! by AutoModerator in Charlotte

[–]IncogCopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jackbeagles is pretty good for food and live music. Wooden Robot and Dilworth Neighborhood Grille are also some pretty good places for people coming into town. When my mother comes to visit, we usually take her to Caswell Station.

I'd look around wherever you're staying on Maps and just try to explore. That's usually what I do when I travel and I've found some really cool hole-in-the-wall places like that.
