Can a police officer prove in court that a person did not have his or her seat belt while driving?
My husband received a ticket the other day for not having his seat belt on. I was with him and he did in fact have it on. It was dark and the police officer must have glanced over at him and assumed he didnt have it on, but how can you argue with a cop?
It's your word against them. But they are sworn officer & they hold more credibility in court. Even when their wrong or lying.
Also maybe the officer had a dash board camera.
I once got a seat belt ticket after getting into a accident. They claimed I wasn't wearing it when they came to the scene of the accident. Once they got there I was unconsious & not wearing a belt. I ended up talking to the district attorney & got the ticket dropped. I explained the facts to him. At the time I had a shaved head. I rolled my truck end for end and the only cuts I had were on my face and arms. Nothing on my head. If I wasn't wearing my seatbelt I would have been bouncing around in the cab. Also one of my injuries were broke ribs. The ribs were broke right where the seatbelt crossed them.
So maybe talking to the district attorney is something you should consider. Tell him the facts.
Police Equipment And Extras
So as to do their job, an officer must be outfitted from top to tail with suitable police apparatus. Police supply stores sell uniforms and badges so that officials can be instantaneously identified. Police gear is typically ordered in serious quantities. A dept must order certain pieces of clothing to size to deal with the different builds of officials. Clothing and kit is now offered for sale on the web.
Some items are needed for all officers. As an example, just about all on duty street officials need a police duty belt which is known as a gun belt. The belt permits officials to have their hands free to engage with one another and potential perpetrators while carrying their gear. Gear typically found on gun belts includes:
* Handcuffs- these are used to constrain a criminal. They're commonly made from metal and applied while the purported criminal's hands are behind their back. This permits the officer to easily frisk the individual or get him into the police automobile without resistance.
* Fire arms- in the Great Britain most police are weaponless. In the US many police carry handguns. Police must be instructed to use handguns and the guns must be reasonably maintained.
* Alternative protection devices- police in the US that don't carry handguns often have some kind of protecting police appliances like pepper spray or a rod. Alternative protection devices are way more ordinarily employed in areas where violence isn't as likely (e.g. regularly campus police don't carry handguns). Pepper spray is a chemical agent frequently employed in riot control or self-protection. When an officer sprays a person with pepper spray it causes tears and short lived blindness as well as major agony. The North American Civil Freedoms Union (ACLU) has documented folks who've died following exposure to pepper spray, so police try and avoid using it whenever it's possible.
* Biking supplies- police that cover small areas that don't have roads or where automobiles cannot navigate handily usually use trail bicycles. Examples of such areas include schools and sections of huge parks like Central Park in NY Town. Officials on bikes need accessories like helmets and bike gloves.
* First aid kits- police can frequently be first on the scene of an accident and have to be rigged to care for a hurt person.
Other police gear is only mandatory in special circumstances and isn't carried by officials on a common basis. Such appliances are employed by specialized police task forces in the Fed. Bureau of Inquiries (FBI) or in specialized units of drug enforcement divisions.
As an example, ballistic vests, often referred to as bulletproof vests, are customarily worn just when inbound gunfire is likely. This type of police appliances are frequently worn by SWAT groups. The vests are worn round the torso to guard officials from the bullets of handguns and shotguns. They even defend against hand grenades. Sadly, they don't protect the head or extremities.
Police are only able to do their job if they're well-equipped. For that reason recommends for police work demand that police departments are well-funded by taxpayer dollars.
