investigation in New Orleans finds traffic court judge seasoned traffic law violator (surprise!)

An investigation by WWLTV in New Orleans found that several traffic court judges and clerks were using illegal license plates and lights on their taxpayer funded cars. Yes, they get free cars.

 According to the report, five taxpayer-funded cars had been outfitted with blue emergency dashboard lights, which is a violation of state law.

 Judge Jones III also had another piece of equipment on his car that was a potential traffic violation: A plastic cover over his license plate that reflects flash cameras like those used to collect tickets for driving violations. Using the plastic cover is another violation of state law.

wrong person for the top safety job, the former director of the Massachusetts Sate Highway Safety Division has 32 instances of breaking the driving laws, including failure to stop for police - twice. That is a lot of tickets to still have a license

the director of the state's highway safety division, had 32 entries on her driving record since 1984.

Those included seven accidents, four speeding violations, two failure-to-stop-for-an-officer citation and one failure-to-wear-a-seat-belt mark.

from 2007 to 2012 she was the director, working for the office of public safety, and until she got into an accident sufficient to hospitalize her, and that accident? Hers was the only car involved. So... hit any trees or buildings lately?

Utah State Trooper Lisa Steed ruined lives of dozens of people... by trying to have the best stats for DUI tickets, and she was awarded cop of the year. Her victims? Lost their cars, jobs, etc because cops are not honest

State trooper Lisa Steed was honored inside the state police force for busting an extraordinary number of drunk drivers. But some of her convictions were subsequently over-turned, and the trooper was reprimanded and then fired for making false arrests.

If you add up all the cases these attorneys think are out there, the lawsuit could potentially cost Steed and the Utah Highway Patrol $20 million.

What gets me - her co-workers and supervisors, and dept head, etc did not question the complaints, or the stats, of a solo cop making incredible numbers of DUI arrests of poor people who couldn't afford a lawyer.

So, any one else feel that if you aren't a cop or a lawyer you haven't got a chance?

Just days ago I posted several instances of corrupt cops http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/02/out-rage-ous-police-actions-in-news-its.html

What the hell went wrong? When did cops lose their honor, integrity, and dignity?

if a geyser blows out in a parking lot, and you aren't in Yellowstone, it's time to be concerned, but look at the drivers still wanting to park there!

top execs of car companies like BMW, Cadillac, Jaguar, some GM dept heads, and other top dogs were asked about their first cars, surprisingly most were ordinary

Bob Ferguson, now head of Cadillac, drove a 1976 Mustang II, powered by a 302-cc V8 engine.

 Bill Peffer, Cadillac's U.S. VP of sales and service, also started off with a Ford, a 1987 Mustang GT.

Andy Goss of Britain, now president of Jaguar Land Rover North America, had a 1981 Mini, in russet brown. 

CEO of BMW North America Ludwig Willisch had a 1958 Beetle, about 20 years old by the time he got his hands on it. It was not a unique choice, he said: "In my generation, the probability of driving a Beetle is very high, because at that time Beetle had about 50% market share," he explained. "Especially for poor students, it had close to 100% market share."
