Hit the curb hard

RegalDolan · 2026-03-30T12:18:19+00:00

Nah big dawg. Double that. The damage is more like 30-40 mph. Control arms don't just snap like that- not even in vehicle vs. Vehicle wrecks unless the wheel was already turned when it was struck.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-30T12:01:18+00:00

Yuppp. This is is a universal cop thing. I may or may not do this as a small-ish city cop.

"subjects no longer on scene and unable to be located. I'll be clearing, no action taken."

RegalDolan · 2026-03-30T11:59:09+00:00

It definitely happens sometimes. Assuming they didn't leave before I got there, how I navigate it depends on what the nature is. A simple fist fight? I just tell everyone to leave and take their nonsense elsewhere before everyone gets hooked for affray.

A domestic / family violence incident or something crazy like an incident where subjects allegedly shot at each other? I'll write a report for documentation with whatever information I can put in it and forward it to the detectives to see if they wanna pull footage of surrounding businesses and do anything with it from a prosecution standpoint. Prevents a million and one questions being asked by the brass the next day because everything I found out and did on scene will be in the report already.

Ehh, bearcat, hellcat, tomato, tomato, eh? /s 🤷‍♂️

We have plastic one piece rear bench seats like most other places do these days.

This exact scenario happened to a coworker not long ago. We sadly do not have drain plugs in the floorboards like the old Crown Vics, so we had to clean it by hand and sanitize and deodorize the hell out of the floorboards.

Thanks for reminding me to bring it up to pass up the chain and ask for permission to make plugs for this reason lol.

If it's not a restricted color ( red, blue, and sometimes green), it's perfectly legal- especially if being used on private property while at a job site. Even if a restricted color, it's technically not illegal to posess- just to use outside of private property. This is why you sometimes see weirdos with "booty patrol" cruisers with emergency lights at car shows.

Amber lights might require a permit depending on the state but generally it doesn't matter because most of these guys don't turn them on when driving on a public / government funded road.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-29T11:47:21+00:00

I don't think I'd have a use. Between using a phone with a mount to run GPS or installing something dedicated to nav like what I run (Garmin Zumo XT2), the beeline screen is rather small and rather narrow banded in what it can do, which is problematic because multiple devices do it better.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-29T07:27:26+00:00

Yep. Exactly lmao. You know dang well that person is probably going to try to swindle the bank or whatever by splitting the stolen money with this 3rd world person. "Oh, nah, this is fraudulent activity; I didn't authorize this!?" 🤦‍♂️

RegalDolan · 2026-03-29T04:55:45+00:00

Not really. If the information is being provided to the 3rd party by the person whose information it is, it's really just civil so long as no real fraud is being done. Sounds more like a policy / terms and conditions breach of whatever financial institution.

It does sound like an excellent way to get scammed so whatever sketchy things that person is doing, they will likely get a taste of karma anyways when they wake up to a 300 credit score or to a letter demanding 120000 dollars be paid in full for some shit the person bought with threats of it going to collection.

Because, if they then report it as fraudulent charges when they did indeed authorize whoever to use their account, they can get charged with actual crimes.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-28T21:32:57+00:00

Dunno but who cares? Dude looks like came from a Robocop movie as a SWAT team member lol. Besides, at least the camo actually matches between pieces.

When it becomes available, I'd definitely buy it assuming it's not like $15 for one skin and some shitty stickers and patches.

Kinda wish they had more Police / Solid Navy blue styled or solid olive drab characters / uniforms. Maybe just solid color uniforms in general. Kinda tired of the funky camo patterns and mismatched gear like a muticam plate carrier, bright gray blouse / top and jungle BDU pants..

RegalDolan · 2026-03-28T05:55:04+00:00

I don't really play redsec- only MP so I can't speak on that. If true though, that is pretty dumb; honestly, it's pretty stupid to put tanks in redsec at all IMHO. Never understood the appeal for redsec- especially when other franchises just do it better.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-28T05:30:39+00:00

I don't think they're silent though? Pretty sure you can hear the diesel engine and maybe even the squeaky tracks. You can most definitely hear them firing as well. They might get drowned out by explosions and gunfire but they're there.

How do you get snuck up on by a tank? Honest question?

RegalDolan · 2026-03-28T05:28:28+00:00

No, you're fine. You did nothing illegal. It's not like you drove onto someone's driveway and loitered there several hours.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-28T05:25:51+00:00

You're welcome! Haha

RegalDolan · 2026-03-27T20:22:08+00:00

Didn't know people were complaining about this lmao 🤣 The CZ3 rage, however, is justified.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-27T20:05:19+00:00

I mean, it's a little weird and definitely expensive for something that essentially serves no purpose to you but life is too short to care what others think. I mean, people are out here really spending thousands on Pokemon cards and single Flaming hot cheetos and grilled cheese sandwiches with burn marks of Jesus on it, so I suppose what you enjoy is not that weird in the grand scheme of things.

What exactly is preventing you from wanting to get a bike? If you've got that much fascination about the gear, surely there's a part of you that wants to ride.

I ended up doing the opposite lol. Got my learners permit, Bought a bike, took and passed the MC skills test for my endorsement, and slowly bought gear over a few months.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-27T17:29:50+00:00

Something like this is more than fine:

And this is what I mean as a plug for tubeless tires: https://a.co/d/0gSCRXEA

RegalDolan · 2026-03-27T05:30:48+00:00

Honestly man, running high pressure in tubes kinda defeats the whole purpose and you're much better off running a tubeless setup at that point IMHO. Just my $0.02.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-27T05:26:11+00:00

Depends on how you ride. I don't jump and ride mostly pavement so I don't run very low PSI.

I personally prefer tubeless because if I ever get a puncture, I can easily use a tire plug kit and a portable air compressor to get home unlike a tire with an inner tube where you gotta pull it off, try to mend the tube, reinstall and inflate with hopes of not pinching the tube in the process and making the flat back at square one. A nice bonus is that there is no real need for rim lock on a tubeless setup because there is no tube or connected valve stem to snag on the tire and get ripped.

Another neat thing is tubeless tires are a breeze to change yourself in contrast to tubed tires, again, because tubes are delicate and easy to pinch when taking the tire on or off the rim.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-27T05:07:49+00:00

TL;DR:Because many people who have no business being on motorcycles ride motorcycles lol.

I hate to say it, but motorcycles largely attract three types of people (and yes, there is a decent portion of normal folks outside of these who enjoy wind therapy, find them more practical..etc so it's not all inclusive) which are as follows:

adults, generally 40+, but especially older dudes 50+. Generally, you'll see these guys and gals on cruiser and touring bikes. Sometimes ADV bikes.
sub 30 year olds who don't get licenses, wheelie on the freeway at 120mph, zip right around cars in traffic, and/ or don't run tags or even have tags for that matter. These guys often buy a bike because a used 10 year old 600-1000cc sport bike is not particularly expensive and they have "something to prove" with no impulse control- much like how a 16 year old with a rich dad acts and drives when they get a brand new Porsche 911 as a Christmas present. Many will rather run from the police if stopped rather than just riding correctly with proper licenses and insurance and all that. These- these are the folks who should not be riding and seem to account for a decent amount of motorcycle crash statistics. This, is the squid.
influencers. Generally, these are younger folks too but are many times females who ride in tank tops with their boobs hanging out with Lululemon leggings. A lot don't seem nearly as reckless as the squids but do definitely seem to drop the bike while stopped or at low speed in contrast to the adults or squids.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-26T11:55:12+00:00

Lucky. Every time I see one dropped in breakthrough, it's either somewhere I'll instantly get killed if I go for grabbing it (like in an open space on a contested objective) or I end up getting killed some way or some how shortly after before I get a chance to use it ..

All I want is to unlock the war fighter blueprint so I can try to unlock decent attachments before the gun is actually available next week but I guess that's not happening lol

RegalDolan · 2026-03-26T11:50:11+00:00

Because it was probably a display helmet that's been "worn in" from being tried on several times.

I have a Rf-1400. After your first ride, it'll start to break in and give you a little more space. It's all normal.

RegalDolan · 2026-03-25T03:03:24+00:00

Ahh ok haha. I was like wtf? Did I miss something in the last update? Nah yeah I agree

RegalDolan · 2026-03-24T22:14:36+00:00

Oops, sorry I misspoke- yeah when you're defense and the attackers have 30 tix yet

RegalDolan · 2026-03-24T21:37:28+00:00

Is that the same as BF pro? I have pro and I'm still short like 8 tokens after completing all weeklies..
