Drug dealer runs from cops...crash...tasered...

2009-02-08T13:47:36-08:00

What was this guy thinking? Oh wait he probably wasn’t.

After he decides to turn onto an imaginary side street, this criminal steps from the car as if he’s going to submit, but then attempts to sprint off, getting tasered in the back. Even then he seems unsure whether he wants to comply, where he even is, or if he’s playing a strange game of twister.

Police officer predicts car crash during routine stop

2009-02-08T13:41:55-08:00

Always with a mind towards safety this officer inadvertently (or psychically) saves his and his suspects life. While writing the woman a ticket he asks her to step away from her car and onto the side of the road, explaining how dangerous it would be if a car were to crash into hers. And as if on cue, seconds later, one does.

Now I’m forced to wonder about being stopped on the side of the freeway by an officer. Should I get out of the car? That does look dangerous.

Determined cop chases bank robbers during firefight

This police officer doesn’t give up in his pursuit of bank robbery suspects even as they pelt his patrol car with bullets.

Ghost car chase or supernatual hoax on (or by) Garden City Police

2009-02-07T12:33:52-08:00

Ghostly prankster, lucky drunk, or well calculated stunt pulled on or by the Garden City police department for fun? You decide.

It bums me out seeing something like this and not being able to find any more info about it. There are a lot of discussions on the internet about it, but no more info about the resulting investigation or other news stories. Heck, even Snopes has no listing for this except in their forum .

I visited the Garden City Police Department website (here or here) hoping they would at least have some amusing thing to say about the incident, I mean really this was on CourtTV. It seems as though this would be worth mentioning on their website. There was no mention of it, but they did have safety tips and warnings for Halloween October 25 , 2006. So maybe they are just behind on updating their website.

I’m going with the whole thing being a clever viral video stunt by the Garden City PD in conjunction with Garden City government to increase local tourism. Brilliant actually, as I will definitely be heading to Garden City on my next coast to coast roadside attraction tour.

New Safety Apparel Regulation

2009-01-22T06:48:17-08:00

I was recently informed of a new Safety Apparel Regulation effective November 24, 2008, federal mandate, 23 CFR 634. This mandate states *” All workers within the right-of-way of a Federal-aid highway who are exposed either to traffic (vehicles using the highway for purpose of travel)or construction equipment within the work area shall wear hi-visibility safety apparel.” *

As I understand this regulation it effects any workers on foot within the right-of-way of federal-aid highway: construction, survey crews, first responders, law enforcement and tow truck drivers are effected to name a few.

This is how the FHWA defines Hi-Visibility Safety Apparel, it is intended to stand out during both daytime and nighttime usage which meets the requirements of ANSI/ISEA 107-2004 performance class 2 or 3. ANSI/ISEA requires that class 2 has at least 775 square inches of hi-vis and the fluorescent background must be at least 201 square inches of reflective material.

This regulation effects many workers on federal-aid highways and those whom do not adhere to the mandate could face costly fines from OSHA.

The good news is CoTradeCo offers numerous safety vest that are compliant with the 23 CFR 634 ruling. If you are not ready for this regulation please see our Jackson Safety line of safety vest. Trader Dan has done a lot of research on this regulation and is willing to assist with quick info and assistance.

If you would like more info on the new safety apparel regulation please contact us and we can get you a copy of the official mandate.

hot fires

2008-09-30T15:05:44-07:00

I read the book ” Firefight Inside the Battle to Save the Pentagon on 9/11.”
By Creedand Newman. In the book they state that the fire was so hot that wrinkles in Firefighters turn out coats allowed hot gasses in, burning their skin. Benchmark FR 2nd Skins would give more protection to Firefighters.

Pelican 8060 Interesting Facts

2008-09-30T13:12:25-07:00

First let me start by saying I am a huge fan of this light! Works great and is large enough that you can not easily misplace it! I just found out a few interesting facts that I did not know,and wanted to share with all of you! The burn time using the Battery stick is about 6 hours. The burn time using 4 – C batteries is 11 hours and produces a brighter light!!! I took a couple of pics next to my 7060 and also with the traffic wand. My photography does not do justice!

graffito

2008-08-02T08:40:49-07:00

I have heard of a proposed new law that would force taggers to clean up their graffiti. There are people who think that the taggers may be at risk of violence
if they remove graffiti. Why not hire off duty Police Officers to wacth the graffiti removal and let the taggers who put the graffiti there pay for the Officers.
