I've been doing it every day for the past 3 months. The parking lot at work is under construction so there's no where to park. About 100+ people do it everyday, twice.
So that makes it OK?

I forgot where you are an officer :p When we show up at parties, we just join in. Jk, we tell them to turn their music off and stop cheating on their deployed husbands. One more trip to this house and you'll be kicked off post. They usually listen.

I do Party Patrol fairly often. It's a plainclothes detail and we usually write a ton of citations. About a month or so ago we wrote 107 citations at 2 parties over our 5-hour shift. We had the local news riding with us that night too. :D

Just because he's 25 doesn't mean he's a rookie. When I'm 25 I'll have 5 years of experience.
Dude, remembering the code isn't a big deal. But my question was 'you don't give out jaywalking tickets a lot do you?'. If he did, he would remember the code just like you remember the code for speeding. :roll:

edit: (you not referring to you, but referring to chp in general :eek:)

Around here, the cops will arrest you if you don't have ID. I'm not sure about other places.

They dont really arrest you, they might take you into custody though.

i lived in a college town. So we had a bunch of college kids that would walk downtown (to all the bars!) and jaywalk all the time. they wouldnt look and just walk out in the road expecting you to stop. finally the city started ticketing people for it. it worked for a while.
