My girlfriend was just rear-ended by a cop.

I think it would have been awesome if the cop got out and said.. "That'll buff right out...there's no need to get insurance involved is there?"

She won't be able to get it unless the case goes to court, and even then she'll have to wait until discovery to obtain it.

In-car recordings are for evidentiary purposes, not for public consumption. Getting access to an in-car tape is not the same as getting a copy of a police report.

That's why you politely request a copy, preferably having her do it in person wearing something really low cut.

Have her make sure another officer responds to take the report. The officer involved in the crash should not write it. That's probably department policy, but she should make sure this actually happens.

Is the back of her shirt sticky and wet? That can happen sometimes when the offender rams into you from behind, then pulls back out suddenly for no apparent reason.

Do you speak from experience? :Q

You being a latex man and all, I thought you would know...

I just get a call from my gf saying a cop just crashed into the back of her car. She just bought the car last year! So now she's all stressed out. She's ok, and apparently the back of her car is jacked. So she's on her way over my house. I have got to see this damage.

OMFG .... NECK BRACE!

She was trying to tell you something metaphorically.

She won't get it. If anything, the records unit supervisor would refer her to the city's FOIA office, and we all know what a clusterfvck that is...
 
happened to my mom before. she was stopped at a red light and a cop slams into her doing over 20mph. he was looking down using the computer or something. my mom's knee was seriously fubared. police department had to pay up and lets just say that the cop was suspended for a while.

Um, he probably wasn't suspended; he was likely just taken off the road for a while and put in HR or records or something. It was an accident; it happens to everyone.

Not worthy of a suspension, IMHO.

I think it's time you post another Vortex thread here.
 
UPDATE: She came over. Her neck is stiff. Her truck wont close. And her rear fender is all f*cked up.

Stiff neck means no bang-bang-bang for a couple days. DAMN!
