Oh, and it took almost six months to the day to get this resolved.

Did you notice all the people drawing a paycheck just to take "care" of your little incident? All those tickets that are issured keep those government employees on the job. Mike.

...and they wonder why nobody with two nickels to rub together wants to live in that freakin' dump. *Amazing.

For the rest of you who aren't local, a child died in a fire today in part because the City of Detroit can't get its act together and send an ambulance on a fire run. The firefighters tried to get him to the hospital in their fire truck, but couldn't save him.

Well, Burly, I'm glad you got away without jail time, but you still got screwed IMO. I won't be visiting Detroit on any scrap runs, that's for sure. There's plenty in my area anyway, why take the chance on the accelerated crime rate, the greedy license requirements, etc., when you can stay safe and stay legal by not crossing 8 Mile Road?

Detroit can suck it.

I'm not sure what that means. I do have dot #'s on my trucks.

Ah, memories... Here's the photo I took of the cop with our trucks blocked in.

TO BRASSCATCHER and all others that say "Unfortunately they have to enforce laws that seem trivial to us, but remember most would rather be catching the bad guy instead of getting numbers so the higher ups can toot their own horns" These cops are people just like you and me and I know for a fact that they can and do pick and choose what laws to enforce. The cop that stopped BurlyGuys in Detroit was just being a lazy douchebag it was easier for him to mess with some guy trying to recycling his stuff than to get the real crooks. Also that License crap is only there to help the city make money as we all know Detroit is one of the poorest city in our country.

Got an acre right behind me for sale, Brasscatcher. You'd be welcomed to come on down here.

Okay, here is the final upshot of all this. I went Friday April 26th to my final court date, the one where the judge ascertains that I did indeed pay the fine and after 90 days haven't gotten into any other "trouble."

I get my final dismissal and the court clerk gives me my paperwork and tells me "hang on to this FOREVER. Put it in a safe or safety deposit box."

Um, why?

Well because sometimes we eff up, and stuff isn't recorded properly, and you could end up being arrested by mistake.

Are you mother-effing kidding me?

I want to burn the city of Detroit to the ground and start over. (Dear Big Brother, this is a figure of speech and I intend no harm to anyone.)

But ****!
