Just curious. Have you ever stopped a ups/fed ex/dhl/cable truck/phone truck/taxi/school bus/company vehicle/hotel shuttle van?
If so, Do you write them tickets, or give them warnings? Would it impact your decision to write them a citation if you think they might get in trouble with their employer, or potentially fired?
Im starting my police employment next month, and currently work for a hotel, driving a shuttle van. And tonight, i was driving the van going about 15 over, and passed a cop, The officer made a quick U-turn and sped up on me, got right behind me, but never pulled me over. (The van has the hotel logo all over the back) So i was wondering, do cops usually let people go who are on the road doing their job?
Is more discretion used? I think id tend not to write tickets if it would impact someone career. Unless you got a UPS driver going 45 in a school zone while passing a school bus. Then i'd deffinatly take action. But for speeding, or something else thats minor, Id probably let them go with a warning, if I even stopped them in the first place.
Id love to hear your opinions, or stories.
