Hinesville Police Department
Unjust and Discrimination

I was unjustly stopped for passing in a no pass zone, when at least half of my car was within the double lines, when the other half was not. Not only was I not aware of the 'half' car rule, I have seen police, military officials, emergency vehicles, civilians, and bikers make the same procedure for at least three years now! I learn through imitation, and since when is imitating law abiding citizens (such as the police) actions wrong. If this was a major concern, enough for a police car to be well about 300-400 feet away, and see me and make this a huge deal ($146.00 fine!!!) then there should be a sign clearly up so that motorist know there are clearly visible no passing double yellow lines. A part from that, everyone should receive the same ticket, including ALL the police, I have seen making this same maneuver. I was so dumbstruck upon being pulled over, I thought I had a light out on my vehicle (about 7:30 am) and when I inquired what I had done wrong the Hinesville police officer was so nasty, rude, and mean that he made me extremely nervous. Being a woman I almost wanted to roll up the window and called the POLICE. I was in such shock over the poor unprofessional treatment, and failure to disclose what I had done wrong that I had a hard time pulling my license out of my wallet. When I did retrieve it, he asked me if I was military and upon saying 'Yes', he told me he was "going to make an example out of me" and walked off. Now I went from scared, confused, to feeling discriminated against to the full degree. I was in such shock (and still am) I went unto Fort Stewart base (where I was proceeding) and was almost afraid to come back off into the civilian sector. This cop was so biased and unsympathetic that it has placed a bad notion of Hinesville Police Department in my mind forever! I am so upset, because I feel as if this was outrageous, unjust, overly extreme, and over the top ($146.00 fine in 2 weeks to pay) behavior; which I do not know what to do about! You want to go to Maj. Hodges and complain at the Hinesville Police Department, but then you think, 'man this GANG of 'harassers' will always be on alert for your vehicle. We need to put a stop to police harassment, brutality, and extreme unjust "make an example out of you" behavior!
