- You may have seen the video of my lengthy 'discussion' with a JMPD (Johannesburg Metro Police Department) officer while I was reviewing the Aston Martin Vantage - it certainly created a fair amount of comment!
My reason for posting the clip was because I believed we were both in the wrong and that the situation could have and should have been handled very differently, but it also made me appreciate how few motorists actually know what their rights are in situations like this...cue Howard Dembovsky from Justice Project South Africa. - Авто та транспорт
It's like my family we got stopped and the Police officer said to us switch off the car , we are checking your brake light . But in my head I like the lights will not illumate if the car is off . Then say's indicate's are working but the brake light [but how often do you check if your brake lights are working] is not working and he'll have to take disk so we said ok . Plus you could see he was looking for money , so we just said write the ticket to avoid any trouble.
That is always the best approach - be polite, ask them to write the ticket and usually they don't as its too much admin.
I enjoyed this conversation, and have learnt a lot from this.
Thank you - that's awesome and mostly definitely the idea. Just so very sad of course the sudden passing of Howard a week ago - a true warrior for our rights and sorely missed
@@MariusRobertsProductions That is very sad man. Sorely missed without a doubt.
I dont know if i could have handled it as good as you. First off all if you can not respect me you going to feel it
Mmm I guess just sitting quietly would have been the best approach BUT I am just not that guy and that day I happened to be filming and have time on my hands.
@@MariusRobertsProductions yes definitely. Most of us is like that. Dont have time for this. But the following up video i learned a few things.
