As a disabled person I just have to pre-empt anyone who accuses her of not being disabled because she readjusts and sits on her knees at several points. The misconception that a person is 'wheelchair bound' and thus cannot stand at all is hilariously out of touch, considering a majority of people who use wheelchairs are ambulatory. Wheelchairs are assistive devices, and in many cases ENABLE people to stand up and walk more than they otherwise would be able to if they had to walk to get places. I haven't read any comments like that yet, but I just wanted to mention it before it happens, because it almost inevitably will.

[@tracyvh74]

@Babes & Board Games Because this channel isn't about informing people of their rights. This channel is a boot licking channel for the POLICE!!!. They violated her rights under color of law. Statue's and codes are not law. Anything that goes against the constitution is null and void in its' inception. Marbury vs Madison is president. This guy that does this channel knows all kinds of statue's and codes but doesn't know anything about the constitution. There are recourse's under title 42 USC and 1983 deprivation of rights, privileges.. How about a grade of F for being a jack boot for the US CORPORATION you shill.

I hope she wins, the officers are pathetic, you slate her for driving off but I respect her for it, they were clearly board to pester her for this.

Audit the audit explained the difference very well! Wheelchairs and what are considered motor assisted scooters are two totally different types of devices. Wheelchairs fall under different types of regulations as they are in actuality considered medical devices. The motor assisted scooters can be prescribed by doctors to get peoples insurance to pay for them or help pay for them but they are not placed under the same classification as a manual or power wheelchair. Your cousin would not have to wear a helmet while using his power wheelchair to get around as his power wheelchair is functioning as his legs. Motor assisted scooters are not functioning as this woman’s legs as she clearly can walk but due to her medical issues walking long-distance is probably painful and she probably would not get very far.

They weren’t messing with her because she was disabled. They did not know she was disabled.

Which still didn’t justify not wearing a helmet nor immediately going fully verbally abusive prior to her even stating that (let alone in a polite manner). My guess is they would have worked with her but she dehumanized them immediately and they decided to follow the letter of the law like she did.

Right!

To say that and not assume that's what they were doing with their lights and sirens on is unreal.

Lawyers need to study the law for something like ten years, while officers only need one. Complete bullshit. I did find a source that said three to four years, but if police are going to *enforce* the law, while lawyers are simply going to be the ones talking about it in court, then officers should at the very least learn half of what lawyers know (five years).

[@Dowlphin]

@@bansheemania1692 You bigoted dummies. When they don't do this, people complain, and here they did so to underline their point and you hold it against them? The cop was sticking to his stance and so he wanted to demonstrate that it is written so, since she claimed otherwise. That is commendable. And he would likely have showed her if she hadn't claimed she cannot see it anyway AFTER he had basically found the legal text.

[@bruceforster3709]

Something similar happened to me in Westport, WA in 1999. I was detained by a Police Officer, he took my License, made me follow him to the station, and informed me I was under arrest. After we got to the Station, he had to call a City employee down to the station, and they spent the next TWO HOUURS going over the City Ordinances to figure out WHAT to charge me with. I was finally charged with Soliciting without a License, I went to court, pled guilty, paid a $300.00 fine and a Year Probation. Even the City Prosecutor started out with: "This is a wierd one Your Honor, and we don't quite know how to handle it." TWO Lawyers we met later each said we could have probably sued the City, because the Officer arrested me without stating the charge at the time of the arrest. My wife and I felt it was better to pay the $300, and put it to bed. After the Year Probation ended, the whole thing was "Dismissed". Well, Westport Washington, if the case has been "Dismissed", how about GIVING BACK MY $300.00?!
