R42 M Train Posted June 29, 2010 Share #28 Posted June 29, 2010 That's a bad f***ing attitude. When you sue the city, or the MTA you are suing the taxpayers. You are suing yourself, your family, and everyone you know. How about having common sense, carry the bulletins, explain what you know, and if the guy still has problems request his badge or pass number and file a formal complaint. Be cordial and you will be fine. Cop an attitude and you'll be the one with the Bronx party hat. Im saying that you can sue for wrongful arrest but Im not saying I would. I would like them to get a major infraction if Im arrested for railfanning. I do carry the orders with me. Yes I do know that it costs the taxpayers money when someone sues the city. I was just stating a fact. It's not like Im looking to get arrested for railfanning so I can sue although I admit my original post made it look that way. and it is true that some cops are a**holes for harrassing and threatening railfans.

Far Rock Depot Posted June 29, 2010 Share #30 Posted June 29, 2010 I find it amazing that after the embarrassment the NYPD faced after they arrested an MTA worker in 2009 and then he sued and won, that some of the members of "New York's Finest" are still "New York's Clueless" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messino Posted June 29, 2010 Share #32 Posted June 29, 2010 Okay, if taking pics and videos is totally legel in the system, so how came these undercover cops keep on bullying me and harrasing me by saying there going to give a fine and arrest me?:mad: Maybe you scare them..

I've never heard of cops baiting on random people due to size or any sort of deficiencies if they're doing something "wrong" but I wouldn't be surprised one bit.

Joe Posted June 29, 2010 Share #37 Posted June 29, 2010 I've noticed that some people just naturally attract attention. Perhaps you should stop acting so perpy? The only time I was ever "told" not to take a photo was some transit cop in the Union Square IRT station...he merely clapped his hands and shook his head "no". Instead of being a d-bag liberal and arguing with the guy, I just went to the Broadway BMT platform. Needless to say, I didn't get cuffed that night.

Not to be rude but if you're going to bleat out random shit like that as if you have tourette's syndrome then don't bother posting. In addition, don't advertise your problems with cops or transit workers here as a majority REALLY don't care about other's problems. Sad to say, we don't. As well as others stealing your MetroCard as if we can get it back from the thief who took in the first place. And next time you have a problem with either cop/TA worker, report it to the MTA or go to a precinct, either which, pick your poison.

All i asked was for help, not be joked around with and made fun of.:cry: Here's the bottom line.. Some police officers are not awar of the rules on photography in the subways. Politely tell them your hobby is taking pics of trains and buses and if they give you a hard time just listen to what they have to say and move on. Go to another station, go at a different time ect ect. Why dig yourself a hole you cannot come out of? Next thing you know you have a huge summonse and have to appear in court witch is not fun. Just yes them to death and it would be over. The subways arent going to close up anytime soon so there are other days to get your pics. Thank you.

That is wishful thinking and it's not going to stop. Literally the ONLY solution is to be educated about the rules, carry them with you, and to be respectful of the officer questioning you while politely explaining that what you are doing is legal and that you have the documents to prove it, and that if he doesn't believe you, you would happily wait with him while he proved out the authenticity of the materials you showed him. Otherwise, you're just asking for trouble. And I love how easily people say sue. You do realize it costs money to retain a lawyer, right? Like, more than $1,000 typically. I'd find it hard to believe that some who don't even have $30-$45 for a nostalgia train would suddenly find $1,000 just so they can try and win $30,000.
