another cop injured while not wearing his seatbelt lol
Said it before and I'll say it again, LV Motor Cops are possibly the bravest people on earth. I'd figure out a way to bypass Vegas somehow if I was riding a bike. Vegas is just plain scary!
RE: Sam
Unfortunitly due to past discrepencies and rational and informed person has to question these situations when Metro is involved. This is a fact brought on by that department and will exist till there are real changes, not just empty policies that each and everyone of us will see violated at some point.
