LICENSE PLATE THIEF HUNTERS RANGE

[GRINreeper]

just discoverd my front license plate has gone missing.

I was parked at the upper parking lot at Hunters Range from 10 am - 5pm. on Sat Feb 5th. It definatly didnt tear off, it was delibertely taken off. I would never have known if it wasnt for the DICK cop that pulled me over and ticketed me 109.00 bucks for no front plate. Im sorry but Its really hard for me to respect a cop that has the nerve to ticket the good guy, while the real crimminal runs free. lazy power trippin waste of tax dollar Idiot. (if you are a police officer reading this now my apologies.... but, you have done the same or simalar thing before. If you havent you are sittin behind a desk back at the station).

This guy actually escorted out of my truck and into the back of his cruiser and accused me of avaiding a road check while DUI. on dec 2nd. not likely, I dont even drink. it was a road check 2 blocks from my home, its humilliating and potentially bad for business to be seen getting into the back of a cop car. After it was all over I parked and watched the road check. they were targeting trucks only, everyone else got to role through.

show of hands please.... how many people do a 360 walk around there vehicle everytime before they get behind the wheel. this was his grounds for the ticket.

It is the law in BC to have a front plate, but I think its a bigger crime to steel a plate....Yet I will pay for some thief to steel from me, not to mention the 18 bucks for new plates, and the 30 dollar plate cancelation fee.

To Sum it all up...I agree with ticketing for offenders, but a front license plate...CMONNNN

This makes me really nervous about leaving my vehicle while sledding....its just a sittin duck.

That is chickens_ _t on the cops part.

As for the thief, well thieves should just die.

Take the time to dispute the ticket.A judge will throw it out if you can sound reasonable.

You will have your receipt from ICBC for new plates for proof.

Why would someone steal a front plate? Aren't all the reg stickers on the back.....if they were going to take a plate...you would think thats what they would take.


On a side note.....my Uncle has a large collection of plates he finds on the side of the road as a guard rail inspector.

Why so hard on the cop? He is enforcing the laws not making them. Your theft story is true......but he hears @($*% like that all day long people trying to get out of a ticket, he is not the filter, the judge is. I highly doubt they all got together and decided to stop just trucks at the check point. He may have been an *******, but most cops are good people, some do get big heads.

why so hard on the cop ? this kinda of thing is exactly why our courts are so clogged up. he may not be a filter, but he had a choice to issue the ticket or not. why so hard on me ?

speeding yes, write the ticket. that law is there so people dont get hurt. running yellow and red lights....yea write the ticket. having no front plate doesnt put me or anyone else in danger so why the ticket. I remember years ago I got pulled over for no head light. I was given 7 days to fix it and drive to the closest detachment and show them that I did get it fixed. I was told it could be up to 2 years to dispute this ticket. Think of what all these sensless tickets are actually costing us.
