Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
I'm afraid I cannot explain the why, just take a few guesses. I believe the first study was conducted in San Diego during the 1970's. There may have been additional studies since then. Put Google to work - I imagine that you should be able to find the study published online. Also, there may be newer studies that support or contradict the original.

School record - probably. If you were charged with something, then criminal record - yes.

No, you should not have been driving.
However, it sounds like you made the choice to drive after you found out that you were parked somewhere you should not have been. Where was the person who was supposed to drive you home? No one goes in for surgery and should drive themselves home, so what were your arrangements for getting home?
If you failed to arrange for transportaion, and then you knowingly drove when you were not able to avoid having a car towed is not a reason to blame the officer. As they say a failure to plan is a plan for failure.
If you believe the officer was out of line, you should be complaining to his or her supervisor and not here anyway.

Probably. I'd suggest looking for something related to law enforcement (if that's what you want to do) that does not include driving or the carrying of arms.

Do most meteorologists believe global warming exists?
It depends on the circumstances. For example, if police received a 911 call from a building and the doorman tried to block the officers' entry, he would be arrested for obstruction.

You want to be extremely careful when getting involved in other people's affairs. You are only getting one side of things, and she is probably not giving you the entire story.
If you honestly believe that her mother is abusive, then call the police. If, on the other hand, you think that it is just a case of a teen who doesn't want to follow house rules, then do not call the police.
You certainly cannot keep her from her mother.

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.
