So let me get this straight:
If I rear end someone tomorrow....and there's "no dispute" that I was not paying attention to the road.... and "no dispute" that I was covering the damages -- then I can/will walk away with no ticket? No ticket for following too close? No ticket for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident? If I was looking at my mobile device because it pertained to my job duties when an accident happened, am I exempt?
I had no idea it was "typical" for this to be the case in this type of accident. Are the same considerations extended to non-law enforcement drivers?
Don't get me wrong, I commend our law officers for the job they do but they should be held to every standard they enforce on a daily bases as well as the consequences...even for a traffic accident.
Where's the citation?
