I was watching an interesting video on youtube that I find rather odd, confusing and disturbing.
A woman is shopping at a local safeway. Comes out to her car and gets stopped, while still on the property, by two officers.
"Your backup light does not work".
Ok. Like how many of us routinely check to see if that works? The cops know this.
I never have.
The vehicle she is in is plated from New Jersey and is owned by her father, so the registration is in his name.
I looked up new jersey law and it says backup lights are optional, not mandatory.
So California law does not matter here.
Upon checking the registration, the officer claims the registration has expired and thus the vehicle will be impounded.
California vehicle codes 22651, and 22658 cover this situation on vehicle towing.
Officers are authorized to tow vehicles on PUBLIC land and roadways.
As I perceive the law, only the property may initiate an order for the vehicle to be towed.
My question is basically, under what California law are police allowed to enforce vehicle codes on private property?
Private property being accesible by the public is not a roadway or public land as defined by law.
I have also seen many other videos where California cops are under the impression that they can enforce various laws on private property.
One that is really flaky, is where a lady cop cites a dude for having dared to take up two parking spaces!
Another one, several cops harass a dude for just sitting in his car waiting for his wife.
I dont see how Californians put up with this kind of crappy harrassment from the police.
Thanks.

I just knew my instinct wont lead me wrong when i decided to try the hacker with the email address (spystealth.org AT gmail DOT com) out. I was scared at first because he told me i had to make an upfront payment before he could begin the hack. That made a part of me scared i could be scammed and a big part of me kept saying i should go ahead with it. So i followed my mind and went on with it. I sent him a mail telling him i needed his help hacking into my wife’s instagram account and he assured me a clean job with no traces and that was exactly how it came out. He is so discrete and i like the fact that he is fast and reliable. There’s nothing wrong in trying, so contact him at spystealth.org AT gmail DOT com and i promise you won’t regret working with him.
