smh

 

[Canadian Dragon]

any excuse to get people off on technicalities. sigh

 

[Canadian Dragon]

defence lawyers really be the worst in most cases

 

[Canadian Dragon]

but then again, not like state prosecutors are known for being queeky clean either

 

[Butters]

my aunt got one and blew over a .08 and it was dropped in trial because the machine hadn't been calibrated recently enough.

 

[Butters]

a lot of trivial shit can get a person off the hook.

 

[Sabretooth]

Everyone knows the US Justice system is a fucking joke

 

[Chris]

Hypothetically a machine not being calibrated could cause a conviction on an innocent tho so I get that

 

[Sabretooth]

Why is the breathalyzer optional lmao

 

[Butters]

yeah, they have to have paperwork of all that kind of maintenance on them.

 

[Chris]

It's really on people operating that shit to follow the law to a T to prevent that stuff IMO

 

[Butters]

and i guess if you get caught speeding and they tell you what you were going, you can ask to see the radar gun and if the speed isn't on there you can refuse the ticket.

 

[Butters]

i would never try to argue with an officer tho, seems like an easy way for them to just pin more on you.

 

[Sabretooth]

I literally had a girl tell me "I've been driving with a suspended license for a year and if I get pulled over I just flirt with the cops and they let me go"

My grandpa got clocked for going like 60 over once when he obviously knew he wasn't lol the cop rescinded it a day later bc he realized the radar was picking up the speed of the cops car as well
