This thread is like a Canadian election. 4140 comments but only 83 votes. What was the question?
This thread is the dumping ground for all of the "I hate cops" posts, rather than posts which have some sort of question of law. The poll was from one of the threads that was merged into this one which is buried among the posts.
Not sure if you pasted the wrong links but they're all the same story as far as I can tell. Careless cop pulls out in front a biker and kills them. They get charged with dangerous driving and escape the charge.I wonder how these two very different conclusions from some similar circumstances came about. Anyone care to comment?
They get charged with dangerous driving and escape the charge.
Looked them over again and now I can see I misread them, no thanks to you. A little synopsis of the pertinent questions wouldn't have killed you. Maybe next time.Do you even realize that this did not happen in any of the links posted?
I don't think I can help.

I think the term "momentary inattentiveness" is a term only an apologist for irresponsible behavior could use. Clearly the SIU has outlived its usefulness. The facts as they state them deliberately steer clear of the officer's action itself, preferring to focus on the irrelevant circumstances prior to the crash. The officer predictably refused to cooperate, therefore only the illegal action of turning left and violating a vehicle's right of way should be considered since we don't know what the officer was doing (if he was doing anything) in his vehicle while he was turning. Fact remains he turned left and violated a vehicle's right of way, damn near killing a man. If that isn't dangerous driving then it certainly must be careless driving. You are supposed to look before you enter a highway, especially one where vehicles travel at 100km/h. I can't imagine a situation where I could turn left doing a U-turn, wipe out the highway and merely dismiss it as "momentary inattentiveness". What a travesty of justice.
It's great you're not thanking me for you misreading those links :icon_smile: :angel4: ; it's not like I had anything to do with that:happy7:. Instead of attempting mind-reading to figure out how and where you could get all five links so wrong and doing all sorts of rehashing, it was nice to see after pointing out what was wrong in your limited feedback that it helped, you looked at the links over again and now get it. :read2: . Happy to help. ccasion5:

Yes, I see your position that this thread falls into the political spectrum.
I agree that it should stay as it is a fellow member posting experiences or information dealing with LEO.

What are we contrasting against?
