The laws are for citizens, not city employees.

On the way to work today, I drove a couple of miles down Mesa next to a bright, shiny City of El Paso Code Enforcement pick-up truck.

The guy was slouched against the window, talking on his phone the entire way.  Clearly not a business call and total disregard for the no-talking-while-driving (without a hands-free device) ordinance.

But here’s the punch line…that’s the second time I’ve seen him just driving around talking on his phone.

Great work if you can get it.

Every time I see those trucks I think they are police trucks because of the way they are painted and the light racks on top. That’s why I pay attention to them.

I pulled up right beside him, rolled down my window, and actually honked at him three times, trying to get his attention. He was totally oblivious. I was going to tell him to obey the law and get off his [deleted] phone even if it cost me a ticket. Then I was going to actually go to court and to the media and explain how I got the ticket.
