the transit police are a separate unit from other police agencies

They have just as much power as a regular police officer but are multi jurisdictional so a transit police officer driving on the highway can pull someone over and give them a traffic ticket.

I have to disagree with the Transit Police no carring about idiotic drivers . 2 weeks ago while stopped at the intersection , told some Transit Police guys sitting in their squad car about some dangerous driver down Granville and 2 blocks down the road they had the guy pulled over and handcuffed. Pretty nice to know that I helped.

they use Glock 17
which is fairly inaccurate when it is in stock form.

I highly doubt the inaccuracy is due to the gun so much as the user. If it was "inaccurate", what makes you think that a huge percent of all police forces uses this particular sidearm?

transit police don't just book people who don't have a ticket, their job is to keep skytrain stations safe.
do you know how sketchy it is around the skytrain at 1 am? i know i'm glad feeling that i'm a little bit safer knowing that there are police around.

Not what my officer friends tell me. The GVTAPS guys are super BORED all the time. They specifically pull over the people who think they dont care. Alot of the young guys jump ship to other Munis because they want more excitement.

My friend was playing his PSP on the skytrain late at night, and there were only him and this crackhead in the train. The crackhead starts talkin to my friend, asking shit about the PSP, and then asks if he can give it a try. My friend said no, and the crackhead pulls out a knife on him. Good thing my friend has a switchblade and pulls it out as well. He got off immediately at the next station and contacted transit security, which arrested the guy several stations after.
I'm definitely glad there are police around.

I'm definitely glad there are police around. | i'm surprised your friend didn't get in shit either or at least the knife taken away - your not supposed to have weapons either
