A Traffic Enforcer Experience

[Agentt]

Renew your license then ride up and down in front of him all day eating donuts

Donuts here in east taste extremely bad

He was telling me to move along, but I won't have it. Told him I'm a licensed lawyer, but he won't talk to me after then.

I got his name and ID number. Now I'm mulling if I should sue. ??

Nobody's going to compliment OP on the motocycle? I like how the volume covers are on that transportation box

Just put it up lately, so they might have not noticed.

Printed those using a vinyl sticker, a phototop and a printer with pigment ink.

Yes! Sue them and get yourself some pork!

First, if you wanted to sue him, sharing the encounter with the public (scribblehub) might not have been a good idea. Privacy is always on the negotiation table. Second, he ended up taking nothing, so there is little harm done, and if you sue him several of his officer friends might remember you. From a pragmatic judgement, you are not likely to achieve more than the efforts you put in. I suspect just sending an anonymous email to the tipline at his department would have the best net positive result for you personally. From a moral standpoint, citizens who desire a corruption free government must take a zero tolerance policy toward corruption even if it takes great effort and personal risk.

Nah, I'm not really taking this seriously enough to warrant a case in court. I'm in the Philippines, and this is a common (albeit extraordinary) experience.

While I did say I'm 'mulling to sue', it's more of a 'want' than an 'intention', because...well, it's useless anyway.

True. Yeah, that's the main reason why I'm just mulling to sue, though I have no real intentions.

Nah. We're talking of Philippines here, where corruption is an institution. An email to their department is as good as telling a robber to stop robbing your house in the middle of a robbery.

Well, having lost my motivation and got disillusioned with everyone, I won't be risking my life for a senseless cause.
