This eve (Thursday Aug 9) about 10:30 pm I got a call from my daughter saying her car died driving through about a foot of water in a rainstorm on the south side of Indy near Fountain sq. There she was in the middle of the street near Shelby and Morris. She said 2 squad cars ignored her waving for help and a third fire safety vehicle did the same. None of the vehicles had lights or sirens going. She thinks that because of the downpour they didn't want to get wet. I know that a few LEO's read this group. Come on guys. I'd like to know that in a pinch I can count on you guys offering more than traffic tickets. Especially to a young female in a spotty neighborhood. What have you to say for yourselves and to my daughter??
There's no law against doing something stupid (driving through a flooded street), but if there was would they have stopped to write a citation?
I don't work that district so I can't tell you why they didn't stop. I'm sure there are any number of reasons, including the fact that they didn't want to get wet. Not being there or knowing what circumstances were involved, I'm not going to ASSume.
There is no question it is because they didn't want to get wet.
Shame on them. The good ones stop...You probably won't get too many responses here, because most of the LEO on this site would have at least pulled up behind your daughter and turned on their lights. I thought that was part of their job, but I could be wrong.
Really Benny? You know for a fact they didn't want to get wet, or are you just wanting to pile on?
They were IMPD... 'nuf said.
For someone who has 666 in their username I don't think you have much reason to say who is good or bad.
