| Illegally parked cop car gets booted... by citizens Quote:
A clever two-bit Guy Fawkes attached a parking boot to the wheel of an LAPD squad car yesterday. Firefighters eventually removed the parking restraint in between bouts of uncontrollable laughter.

I'd rather a cop park illegally and respond to whatever call they are attending to ASAP than driving around looking for a parking spot.

Who doesn't? And how many times when a cop flashing its light to go through a red light or parking in a illegal spot rushing to an emergency? or instead saving time to get their donuts?

Anyone think the picture is photo shopped? I watched the tv show Parking Wars and the boots are usually yellow colored. And isn't it illegal to tamper with Police equipment?
Story sounds fake or at least over exaggerated..

It all depends on the call.
all of us are familair with the usual full lights and sirens
however, there are also calls that require cops to get there as fast as they can; but not use the full lights and sirens. However, they still need to get there so they "bypass" the red light.
dont be ignorant and dish out retarded comments

If it's a domestic dispute or a situation that their presence could make the suspect become violent and cause harm to people they won't go in fully lit. All they do is blip the sirens/lights every now and then so people get out of the way. Half the time they start to respond to a call and are told to stand down because another unit is closer.

dont be ignorant and dish out retarded comments | This may be true. But, I've seen cops sit at red lights besides me for a few moments and then out of no where lights go on they ride thru the red light and then they turn their lights off. Explain that to me smartypants.

^I fucking don't know smartass. I'm just saying it's a possibility rofl. Seriously, you park at a red light, and there's a cop beside you. All of a sudden he flashes his light and pass the intersection, turns it off, and drive slowly again. What's the first thing that comes to your mind? Oh fck he's on an emergency to save some ppl?

It was a narrow last minute brake for me.
The light went from yellow to red, and all all the cars slowed down to a stop, including said vehicle, then all of a sudden, it floored it to run the red.
Vehicle in question was an ambulance.
oh the ironing that would have ensued had it tossed me 20 ft into the air.
