It was a BS Stop from the trooper the troopers car was on the side pull over lane with his lights on and NO one was in-front of him, the car past his in slow lane and the cop pulled him over BC he didn't move over to the next lane, it was a BS Stop from the trooper and should be sent up to the SUPREME COURT.
Just one more case for legalizing it.
The whole time letting other possible speeders/illegal's/criminals drive by unhindered.
Not saying it is right or wrong but this guy was apparently pretty stupid if MSM is to be believed. He was stopped in 2008 in Delaware for running a red light and had 100 pounds of pot on him then. If you are going to haul large amounts of pot you should at least obey the traffic laws.
Really??(10:43, 11:16) first of all this is a LAW in Maryland. Traffic must move to a lane not adjacent to ANY emergency vehicle stopped with emergency lights on. Ambulance, Fire truck, Police Car etc..(just so you know.. Cops don't write laws). I would have to guess (and probably correctly) that the trooper had just completed a traffic stop and was still on the side of the road, lights activated (for his safety as well as for the safety of others on the road). and I am sure some other speeders did get past him (do you speed past marked patrol cars... really??). and he got a criminal (hundreds of pounds of pot).
some people complain about everything..
And by the way.. There is a law in MD regarding Marijuana also...
11:47 AM....To many laws to remember when smoking weed.
You sound like the ACLU...then wors thing that has happened to this country. We give more rights to the criminals than we do to law abiding citizens. The law is the law. He got busted and you are making excuses regarding the leagality of the stop....and seem more concerned with that, than the fact that he had 350 pounds of pot. Get a life.
Sounds more like one of the many people arrested not long ago, did some talking to cop a plea deal so they could get off their charges.
Outstanding street work Trooper!!!!! Thank you!!
The traffic law is questionable as I ask how the man from New Jersey is supposed to know about the law here in Maryland. I guess that gets filed under 'should have known'.
As for the trafficking law, well he blew tht one all to pieces, if you are going to move that much MJ you have got to behave a little more intelligently.
that law is posted on several signs, just like the speed limit and seat belt laws, along the roadways. of course most people do not take the time to read them.
What's the big deal? it was headed to new jersey. christie cristy problem. So what now we work for him?
How do you get 100lbs in a car. That's a lot of volume with little weight. He was probably a decoy for the truck behind him.
Time would be better spent worring about doing what they are hired for in maryland....assisting/Protecting gay marriges!
A little pink ribbon would look nice as part of uniform.
The law is to move over for any emerg. vehicles on the shoulder. If you can't move over, slow down.
Common sense and common courtesy would already dictate that but we all know that is in short supply.
One should move over or slow down for ANYBODY on the shoulder.
Damn shame we have to have laws to tell us what is the right thing to do.
I've ALWAYS changed lanes for any vehicle on the roadside. There's a reason they are stopped, and there are usually people out of the vehicle working on it, repairing a malfunction, and then the driver has to get in and out of the driver's side. If you've ever been out there in that situation, you would wish everyone would do this.
I never had to read a lawbook to understand common courtesy!
