Some of you may have read my earlier tale of woe, concerning a cowboy CHP officer citing me for absolutely EVERY vehicle code under the sun (the jerk ran out of room on the ticket) recently due to me riding my FS650C motard bike up and down the street in front of my house. (I live on a residential street that might see 25 cars all day) Anyway, this guy went way beyond "just doin his job" and not only cited me but even though I was my usual co-operative polite self verbally harassed and abused me, even threatening to impound my bike "forever" and then attempted to walk into my garage to look at my other bikes. Only after I threatened (never a good idea to threaten a Chippie kids....) to shoot/sue him for warrantless search did he back down. Well yesterday I had my day in court, and after he lied thru his teeth about what I allededly done, did I get to have MY say. And all I had to say was, "your honor, you will please note that the officer neglected to re-identify me before the court during his statement, as such I request dismissal of ALL charges! The judge paused for a moment and told the Chippie, "he's correct, you didn't, case dismissed, charges dropped." Needless to say said officer was pissed, and you know he's gonna be lookin' for me but oh well.....Score one for the little guys! (New law in California, the officer MUST re-identify the defendant before the court during his opening statements, if not you have him on an un-contestable technicality.)
