My friend was the designated driver, driving someone else's car. She was pulled over and given a ticket for impeding traffic because the brights were on without her knowledge. Can she fight this ticket and win?

I don't know. She should probably contact an attorney.

So I see a lot of videos on YouTube that are recordings of police officers. Apparently this is legal. Would someone recording you make you a little uncomfortable even if you were acting according to the law? Thanks

Asked by In over 11 years ago

Never bothered me.

I think I only had to say something to someone once who was recording me. In that case a pedestrian had been struck by a car and was laying in the road. The pedestrian was significantly injured. Some idiot decided he wanted to film the injured person and me. While distasteful, it isn't illegal. However, when the cell phone video superstar was standing in the roadway blocking the ambulance crew from getting to the injured party, I was happy to escort him to the sidewalk.

Hello Bluesheepdog,
My question is: if I see children in a vehicle at the parking lot, is that something I can report on the emergency line? I don't agree with it, but uncertain if it is a cause the police is concerned about.

Asked by Irene Judith Hernandez about 11 years ago

If children are in danger, please call the emergency line.

Hello, I was wondering about the illegal weapons in NY? Is a Sai illegal in New York State?

Asked by Collin almost 12 years ago

I don't know. I'd guess yes for the city of NY, and probably for the rest of the state. NY dislikes armed citizens who can defend themselves.
