Pursuit driving is a double edged sword on one hand their are public safety issues. But on the other hand you have the issue that if you allow people who are committing crimes to drive off it will not be long before no one is stopping for the police. As far as using police helicopters they are wonderful tools if your department is big enough to afford one. The bottom line is if you pursue you are putting the public at risk BUT if you don't pursue and allow criminals to drive off haven't you  just put the public at risk also? Some food for thought it is not the officer that initiates the pursuit. The officer initiates a traffic stop the criminal by choosing to run initiates the pursuit.

As far as I know, Air Force pilots got some cheap whiskey. On the other hand, alcohol was strictly prohibited on US Navy ships.

In the states (Nevada), a police vehicle is recognized as an emergency vehicle regardless if the lights & siren are on or not. The reason is that a police vehicle approaching a crime scene may need to approach without broadcasting his presence, yet may still speed. For fire & ambulance, the lights and sirens must be activated for the vehicle to have an emergency status.

Neither is ok. I hope you aren't drinking then driving because you think this is acceptable behavior. Check your ethics here, I think you are mixed up.  Smoking only really kills the driver, is dirty to our streets, is litter, causes bad smells, and kills from a distance with the mil age at zero. A car with a drunk driver kills big time.

A police officer has the legal right to breathalyze anyone he or she suspects of having used alcohol. A passenger, not driver - passenger, in a car can be charged with public intoxication if they are over the legal blood alcohol limit. Unfortunately, there are police officers in Texas who are now going INSIDE bars to breathalyze people and giving public intoxication tickets, even if they did not drive to the bar, and are not driving home. Fortunately, the vast majority of cops will not give a ticket someone riding in a car drunk, if the driver is sober. Usually this will only happen if the intoxicated person is belligerent or aggressive, and disrupting the safety and process of the traffic stop.\nAlso, if the passenger is underage, ANY trace of alcohol will result in at least a ticket for minor consumption. If under 18 years of age, each state has different laws concerning minors.

Its a safety issue. Ethics really do not enter into it.

When I was deployed to Saudi Arabia for Desert Storm we were not allowed to have alcohol either. However one of my buddies father sent him a bottle of Jack Daniels about once a week. He just packed the bottle with snacks, magazines, toilet paper, sodas, etc and there was never a problem. Like you said is was a luxury in a very nasty place!

I'm confused.  Some law enforcement aircraft have infared detection gear that senses gradient temperatures...the DEA for example uses this technology for interdicting drug shipments...is that what you're talking about or are you tallking about heat seeking weapons on police helicopters?

wearing seatbelts probably is a good idea, but i would hate to be the one who died because he WAS wearing a seatbelt.(or anybody i knew) a better law would be for ALL cars to be equipped with those breathalyzer things that won't let the car start if you have been drinking.( no regristration for cars not equipped)

For minor in possession, officers do not need to give a breath test or sobriety test. The officers can just smell the cup for an alcoholic beverage. From your story the officers definitely have probable cause to believe your son was in possession of alcohol.\n\nAfter an arrest, officers are allowed to search the subject and the area within the subject's immediate control to discover weapons, evidence or any items that can be used to escape.\n\nAlso officers do not need to read a subject his Miranda rights unless they are questioning him while in custody. Officers are allowed to ask general question to determine what has occurred and whether a crime has occurred. Miranda also does not apply to basic information such as name, address, date of birth.\n\nThe mistake on the ticket will not affect the officer's case unless he made several others. This mistake will be considered a good faith error.\n\nYour son appears to be guilty and the officers appear to have operated within the law. I would try to get a diversion if this is available in your area.
