are they checking registration? I am going that way soon...

6/3/2011 11:07:10 AM

Seriously?

They're like 12 hrs too early

6/3/2011 11:07:29 AM

unless they are looking for someone, training new cops, or checking for license/registration/inspection stuff

6/3/2011 11:09:02 AM

there was a checkpoint down in that area last night around 9ish. (not sure exactly where... wife told me about it.)

6/3/2011 11:09:11 AM

my fiance just went through it

they checked, license, registration, tags, and were looking all in her car and asking her to verify her DOB and shit.

6/3/2011 11:09:35 AM

oh geez- guess I should renew my registration then! got my inspection done a couple weeks ago, so I should be good

6/3/2011 11:10:35 AM

i hate the hassle of a checkpoint.

She was waiting in line at least 10 minutes to get interrogated for driving down the st.


She said multiple cars were pulled over getting tickets.

but it's the beginning of the month

There has been a lot of police activity up there recently, maybe some sort of crackdown is going on.

I saw undercovers with a guy stopped in his truck questioning him for over an hour the other night, I know because he was there when I left and still there when I came back.

Also the WCSO corvette, 2 marked, and 2 unmarked had a car stopped on western at kent the other night. That many units is usually not needed just to stop someone for speeding.

funny they don't have checkpoints like that in other parts of the city.

That area is such a shithole

6/3/2011 11:37:57 AM

those apartments down Neeley and Clanton have the cameras and lights on utility poles every hundred yards or so. anybody know who monitors them? and maybe they could provide some insight into who started the fire?

6/3/2011 11:53:43 AM

nice link, frosh.

Yeah, there's an increase in drunk students going to class and raising a ruckus.....so they're getting the city involved.

STLL GOING ON

I got stopped at a check point one year on 4th of july on lineberry at 8:30 in the morning. Officer said I looked like I shouldnt be driving yet.

6/3/2011 12:27:20 PM

I live off of Kent, and this happens all the time. This is the first one in a few months, but they used to have them on the hill before you hit Kaplan once a month, usually at odd times like sunday mornings. I had to go through it twice today to get home and then back to work at lunch.

Seems like they are really targeting a demographic when they set up these checkpoints at these odd times.

6/3/2011 12:38:32 PM

there are a few crack houses there, and then the shit on neely

6/3/2011 12:42:14 PM

^^ you mean, black people?

6/3/2011 1:03:09 PM

the poor people that live all up in my hood. Id like to see them set one of these up in a nice neighborhood

6/3/2011 1:24:13 PM

like specialkay said they set up there all the time and always during the day, pretty sure its for training

6/3/2011 1:27:17 PM

follow the law or u deserve prison

unless you are in Cary, where you can follow the law and get prison anyway

If you get a ticket for not renewing your registration you absolutely have no one to blame but yourself. And yes I've gotten one before.

^^^^ fuck that. Pay for convenience.

data suggests poor people commit more crimes, so setting up a checkpoint in those neighborhood makes sense. Maybe they are looking for people with warrants outstanding?

6/3/2011 1:51:51 PM

I just did my registration online and printed off my confirmation to carry with me when I head down that way
