[natty54]

ahahah

I saw some RCMP drifting in a parking lot today. Wish I had a cam

[SlickA70]

Why do these guys not get bitched out, If I get a ticket for throwing a smoke out the window into snow or doing a doughnuts in a parking lot, why can I not punch it from a red light?

[Hallowed_point]

That was pretty tame..I came here expecting a power brake launch getting sideways off that light :burnout: More like mild acceleration, I wouldn't call that a race.

[revelations]

^ It would still classify as "stunting" ... or if youre in Ontario "street racing" ... :rofl:

[Hallowed_point]

& aint that a bitttcchh :D

[rage2]

I know people who got handed racing tickets for doing the exact same thing off a light. I got warned and threatened with a stunting ticket taking off slower than that lol.

[eglove]

i laughed, loved the play by play. LATER HOSERS

THIS


and update please

[rage2]

haha didn't even notice that the cop on the left did a brake stand at 0:36 to get off the line faster. :rofl:

The only thing posting it on FB and ratting the cops out would be pissing off that cop, who will write everyone a ticket for every tiny infraction the next few months. What area is that in? I'll make sure I avoid it. lol

[Tik-Tok]

WTF you guys... OBVIOUSLY they were responding to an emergency call, but then it got cancelled. [/standard police response whenever someone sees a cop doing something illegal]

[swak]

Looks like the tims in douglasglen.
Haha. Kinda pathetic

[FullFledgedYYC]

I have taken the liberty of posting it on social media... get ready for the suspended with pay news release.

[FullFledgedYYC]

Calgary Police Service responded with: "We are aware of this video and are currently working to identify the officers involved. Thanks for sharing".

Again... prepare for the suspended with pay news release.

[Disoblige]

Haha, let's enjoy the lulz now.

Edit: I wonder if the people investigating the video can notice the officer doing a brake stand before he took off. That would make it worse than just flooring it.

[Modelexis]

Cops are empty shells of virtue and so I'm sure the guilty party will simply turn him/herself in and admit guilt and take full responsibility for their actions.

;) :rofl:

It doesn't take an investigation to figure out the driver, you have the plate the car # and the date/time. lol

[FraserB]

I guess people still don't realize that there are a ton of cars out there with dashcams now.

[revelations]

I'm sure the other 2 vehicles wouldve said something to the first once they got to TH .... or at least they will be now that the video is online.

The members are good at taking care of their own, and also keeping their own in line too (for the most part).

[Kramerica]

Doesn't suprise me in the least. Going to avoid douglasdale like the plague now because you know officers are going to be looking for any excuse to give out stunting tickets. I'll be suprised if anything happens.

[urrforce]

not only things like this video but every few days i will see a cop on his/her cell phone texting or talking away and yeah ok maybe it can be work related but they should be held to the same standards that we are:dunno:

[lilmira]

Maholey is in trouble.

I've never understood what it is about that process that offends anyone. Sure this particular incident seems cut and dry but regardless, with all the complaints that get thrown against that wall isn't "innocent until proven guilty" an appropriate stance?

If you are brought up on charges or being investigated for something, should your employer stop paying you till it's resolved? Removing an officer under investigation for something from active duty is in the best interest of the public, how is not paying them doing any more beneficial good?

Coles notes - that's an asinine position to take in my opinion.

[Tik-Tok]

They could just take them off the street, and stick them doing light duty desk work? Or training?

I'd be more embarrassed having to do data entry all day long, then sit at home watching TV.

[FullFledgedYYC]

I'm with you JRS.... I don't think he should be suspended UNTIL proven guilty. And once he is, then he should be suspended WITHOUT pay.

Suspending without being proven guilty is just stupid.

I never drove while talking on my cellphone before that law came out and that infuriated me. What "special" training enables cops to operate a cellphone while driving but others can't? Why can't I just take a driving class and get a special license if that's the case.

Dealing with the general public's interpretation on what constitutes an illegal lane change would be a nightmare.

i am good with talking on my phone have one of those handsfree speakers but am very bad with texting and since the new law have stopped doing it while driving but will check and reply at a red light or whatever

but yeah police are constantly breaking the laws that we pay them to enforce and its gross i can understand the emergency situations where they must take a call but when sitting next tone them at a light you can tell what an emergency call is versus something personal

[FraserB]

Originally posted by urrforce

I kinda confused how you manage to to figure out what they are talking about. That, and the fact that not all calls they need to take are emergency calls.

[Sugarphreak]

...

[revelations]

^ I agree, in theory it could work with a lot of the major offenses (eg. running a red light).

But all speed measurement devices have to stand up to the scrutiny of the court room so I dont see those even being used as they rely on GPS (which is not reliable in a dynamic environment).

I hope they all do.

It's time the 'let's make an example out of them' table is turned.

[Disoblige]

Haha, the fact that the destination was a Tim Horton's is still making me laugh.

Like I said earlier, I really hope the investigators notice how he was doing a brake stand before he took off. Seriously, flooring it is one thing, but what kind of idiot police officer would press both brake and accelerator in a police cruiser on duty?

Nope, I catch incredibly dumb shit on a pretty regular basis.

Honestly, if the city wants to make money... stop investing in expensive red light cameras and photo radar and start utilizing this mass of rolling HD dash cams. Start offering cash incentives to people to turn in video of finable offences, if I made 75$ or so each time I turned one in it would be a hell of a way to make some extra money, haha! And it would also turn you into a tattle tail for profit... Sounds awesome...

[asp integra]

i heard about this on the radio this morning and the shout out to Beyond! haha Beyond CSI strikes again.

After watching the video though i really expected more of a "race" from what they reported on the radio as "3 police cars caught street racing"

im sure if that was any of us launching harder than normal we would at least get pulled over and possibly ticketed for stunting

im not too surprised this was caught though, about time!

[bart]

glad you aren't posting the date and time, perhaps they will go easy on us in return ;)

[sumguy777]

im glad these guys got caught on camera. its karma for all the times anyone has been harassed by the cops, or gotten a ticket they did not deserve.
i love the fact that they broke the law...the ones they enforce on the public.

"take it to race city you little punks" hahaha race tracks closed even cops stunt.

[J-D]

The worst part is I bet these cruisers are the good cops who would probably cut you some slack. Still pretty funny that they head right into Tim Hortons... lol.

[Modelexis]

The person found out to be the driver should have their name released to the public. They should have to sit in front of a news camera and explain why they did what they did.

They should give a full public apology and resign from their position.

[revelations]

Modelexis, thats a little bit harsh - especially if it was from someone who is normally a model officer .... everyone makes mistakes.


Who knows, maybe he had to go pee really bad?? lol

[Modelexis]

Cops always talk about how much responsibility they have and how they are responsible enough to carry around loaded guns in public, I wanna see some responsibility taken.

It's 'a bit harsh' that people are getting tickets in the mail when they go too quickly through an intersection.

It's a 'bit harsh' when people get tickets for tint and exhaust and insurance papers not in the car.

If everyone makes mistakes and they should be swept under the rug, the public should be infinitely less responsible for their actions and infinitely less punished when it comes to making mistakes.

If it's wrong for the public to make a mistake, what does it mean when a person tasked with carrying military assault weapons makes a mistake.

A mistake is when you accidentally go over the limit while not paying attention, a mistake is not doing a brake stand at a light in a police car.

If stunting is a big mistake for an ordinary citizen of the public, for a police officer this is criminal.
If stunting is no big deal for cops, then it should not even be illegal for the general public.

Difference being that you would have flipped the cherries, this is clearly not a cruller emergency

[Kramerica]

Had they flipped the lights for their little race they would've covered their asses. Lesson learned for next time.

Probably just had to poo:dunno:

A female using her own menstrual quirks as some sort of insult towards a guy is just odd.

[FullFledgedYYC]

As extreme as Modelexis's view is... it almost makes sense.

These guys are supposed to be the model of safe and responsible driving and then they go and do something like this. If this was a citizen, he would be ticketed on the spot.

So ya, if this guy is given a break why is nobody else?

[Disoblige]

Oh I highly doubt hes getting a "break" from his fellow members. The two other PC's witnessed the whole thing and probably had something to say to him inside TH.

In fact, hes probably well aware he made the news and is dreading the call to the Sargent's or watch commanders office right about now. These things are not taken lightly by the CPS.

I'm just can't imagine that any normal thinking person would consider this to be street racing. :confused:

Any good race has a couple burnouts before it starts. We all know this. Races also have winners. Yet all I see are losers hitting it from a traffic light.

Races also should involve some speed. Not 0-60km/h.

I dunno, this doesn't bother me at all. I'm offended that some would call that a race? WTF? Hell no.

The thought that some poor kiddies have probably been busted for something similar and some fucking moronic cop actually wrote a street racing ticket based on similar events. That is tragic.

I'll bet it's a few younger cops 25-35 age range who wish they had a fast car...

AND A FUCKING PLACE TO RACE IT!

[Redlyne_mr2]

Go easy on this officer and hopefully he'll go easy on one of us next time he pulls us over for something similar.

He might have prematurely tried to leave on the green light, but aside from that it just looked like they didn't want to hold up traffic.

PS: not whiteknighting, just used to being stuck behind people who have clearly more free time than I do.

No, it's not really racing, in anyone's definition, except for the CPS when issuing tickets. That's what makes it so funny lol.

Like I said, it was good for a laugh, but I wouldn't have ratted him/her out. All we're going to get out of it is a pissed off cop writing tickets for the smallest infractions. I'm just glad I'm never in the deep south so I don't have to worry after this cop gets reprimanded.

I posted this as a comment earlier but I see that its not up anymore ....

This video will result in reprimands for the members involved if the date/time is posted - that was not the intent of this video, it was meant to be humorous.

The members involved know who they are by now and will be dealt with by other members..... as word gets around.

[GoChris]

I thought it was funny. What a waste of time and money to investigate them.

if i'm speeding and so is another car beside me we both get a racing ticket, i have no influence over what speed the car beside me is driving at i always say :D

The Sun article is pretty funny haha.

[Modelexis]

Being a police officer is no joke.

A police officer that takes his job lightly or acts carelessly is a risk to society.

The video in question is insignificant as a single event but the principle that is being violated with this simple careless action is very significant.

Part of why cops act this way in the first place is because the public is so hesitant to hold their feet to the fire. We get complacent and make up excuses why it's not worth perusing etc.

I take this issue clearly much more seriously than the vast majority of people.
My view is that these people have the capability to end a life in an instant, they have the ability to end my or your life with one bad judgement call or careless act.
These people are given ultimate power in society, and we should all take this very seriously and take immediate action over misuse of power no matter the scope.

Almost no one in this thread will agree with me, and I have a very extreme view on the topic and I can absolutely see why my view would not be popular.

/rant

[btimbit]

Honestly it looks like he accelerated quickly to get in front so he could make the turn. Yeah I agree it's stupid because if I did it I'd probably get a ticket, but it's still not worth all the negative reactions
Modelexis I agree with the idea of what you're saying, and officers absolutelyneed to be held to a higher standard, but I still think a cop car accelerating swiftly doesn't deserve the attention it's getting
