I having reported many, many people in and around the Village of Tupper Lake have seen almost everything. I never thought that I would be online reporting that their is a few young idiots on the local police force that think they are saving the world by giving out traffic tickets to people and harrassing them when all they are doing is driving around the village because that is really the highlight of Tupper lake these days.
Anyway to get back to my issue, I was riding around with my disabled father who is 70 years old, who has many issues including very weak kidneys and when he has to go to the bathroom he has to go within a minute or so or else!!! We were heading for a ride up the boulevard when he pulled to the back of Save-a Lot grocery store well after hours, and while it was dark.
He then relieved himself and we continued on our way for a ride and when we pulled out by the side of Wisebuys at the opposite side of Save-A Lot I looked to see if my friend was still working at the Save a lot store and I noticed a police car sitting there waiting for someone.
Well the minute we pulled out and turned right to head down the boulevard near the abandoned plastic factory (OWD) my father signaled and the police cruiser which was about 1000 feet away facing the opposite way presumed to come towards us and hit the cherries (lightbar). He claimed he was stopping us because my father hadn't signaled right when he pulled out by the OWD, now how the hell did Roscoe P. Bolster Coltrane see whether my dad signaled from that distance that far away when my dads vehicle was facing the opposite side where he could see? I will tell you, he couldn't but he needed an excuse to pull my dad over to see why we were in back of the store. We explained the situation to him and he then issued my dad a ticket for improper signal.
During our annual Beards Harley Run the NY State troopers pulled a stunt also by setting up a roadblock and nailing about 101 bikers for bullshit traffic tickets.
The Tupper Lake Police Department is nothing more than traffic cops with the authority of real police officers. I have seen many, many times that the local police had to get back-up from the state police, at a local police officers salary why are they being paid when they can't even do their jobs without the help of the state police. The Fleecing of America continues.
