we talk.
5 minutes after talking I see him drive by my car again.

Check out Thomas Orr in Travis' community section. Tell him what you think. In my opinion Thomas Orr is a moron (= Orron) He says Travis is stupid in so many words but Orron doesn't comprehend written English. Yes, the sign has two parts, 1) no truck or RV parking, 2) Because trucks and Rv's aren't authorized to park there they will be towed.
Nice to see a cop admit he was wrong and be professional throughout the contact
For once the officer seemed liked a nice person. Refreshing!

Yah, except for hassling a legally parked citizen. Yah, sure.
Typical for a cop to say something before he knew what he was talking about. At least he was nice and he said sorry. I thank him for admitting he was wrong. 👍

@@ericanderson8556 sure you do, cops "apologize" all the time for all kinds of shit they've done including their highest ranking officers, chiefs, sheriffs who usually call in special press conferences "just" for saying "we are deeply sorry......blah blah blah" but that's irrelevant.
He seems genuinely like a really nice cat and had no problem admitting he was wrong and actually spent time talking to Travis that was pretty awesome
I think that cop really wanted a new friend for Christmas

He was wrong about the sign but he seemed like a pretty decent guy once he realized he was wrong & was man enough to admit it unlike the usual copsplaining, twisted logic, reaching retroactive justification
Your plan is to hold awkward conversation until the cop just wants to leave you alone. I love it.
See how he shows respect for this man , calm , no screaming this how you do it . Good officer ! I’d like to have him as a neighbor.
That is how an encounter with police should be across the nation! My hat is off to that officer, very respectful and professional!

the officer is an IDIOT. TellIng someone they can not park where they Can park. makes him a blundering IDIOT , MORON !!
That was a pretty cool officer. Sure beats your experience with the officers in ND. He didn't allow his ego to get the best of him and admitted that he made a mistake. It was also nice to see him treat you with common decency and not shine his mag light in your eyes.
He didn't seem to bad. It looked he just needed to get out of his patrol car for a little bit of exercise.
If all officers were like this man, there would be very few videos of police officers on youtube. Sadly, this kind of pleasant interaction was a surprise to see.

This guy is one of the first cops that I actually believe when he says something. You can tell he's a decent guy just trying to do the best that he can for his community.
Cop just woke you for conversation.
That is one hell of a Law Enforcement Officer !!! He had a very positive positive attitude. He was very calm. He was very respectful. He was there to protect and to serve. He was doing exactly what every Law Enforcement Office should be doing. Period. Does anyone have a way to contact this officer or His department?
Wtf a cop that acts like a human being it's the twilight zone
At least Officer didn't try to hem you up, or demand I.D. Safe travels!
This cop should be a supervisor. He asked (cat and mouse still applying), but didn’t cross any lines. Great job.
Dang, this guy has a TON of police interaction, but he's a BOSS at how he handles it.
I sometimes think my home is a wreck,then i watch a vid from travis and i am living in a pristine enviroment...the very lap of luxury!

He did his job of policing and was incorrect about the sign and everyone involved went there way no hard feelings.

Big Steve ( small rant). Lol. You don’t have too nor should you need to change for the police. But looking at cops as all the same is just unfair. People expect way too much in life, quit setting the goal so high and you won’t be so upset at the outcome. People are butthurt for the little things these days. Let’s keep the problems in perspective here and work on the big problems then work backwards towards the little irritating ones such as this one, travis’s meet up had a pretty good outcome besides being woken up. I have had my bad run ins with cops and I have met some decent cops so I treat each one individually and work with what I have got. We hold cops to a higher level but they are still humans and as such there are going to be bad ones. If you want to fix the problem we need to fix our jacked up society, we wouldn’t even need law enforcement if people could just get along and act normal but that has never been the case were still animals deep down inside and some of us still aren’t domesticated enough to act human towards others. Have a safe holiday. Cheers Big Steve

dper1112 true. However I see the facts and I draw inferences. He’s a sergeant so he’s been working years and probably is very familiar with that street. The signs are quite large. He tried to trick Travis by giving his name when he said “what’s your name AGAIN” (Travis never gave him his name before that) so it was a leading question. The only thing that prevented cop going further was seeing he was being recorded. Cop was pretending to be nice.
I know him, not putting his name out there, but yeah his a nice guy very respectful person. I bet his coworkers are going to bust his chops though lol
Good thing the police are keeping parking violations in check. Just think about how many societies have collapsed due to parking violations. Thank you, policy enforcer, for keeping society from crumbling into utter chaos due to free people parking where their natural rights allow them to park. A kind enforcer is STILL an enFORCEer.
Warning: Law Enforcement - You are entering The Heinze Zone ! The upside is...You are about to get an education !! This would make Tommy Chong proud !! Stay on em Travis !! Wulfy
If only every officer did their job as NICELY, COURTIOUSLY, & FREINDLY AS THIS OFFICER, & WITHOUT ALL THE ATTITUDE, LIKE THIS OFFICER, The world would be a better place! ONE OF THE GOOD ONE'S! A TRUE PROFESSIONAL!!!! IF ONLY THEY WERE ALL SO NICE!!!!!?????????
Right On ! Ok so yhere are at least 2 Professional Cops out there !! Great Job Officers ! Good Vid, Travis ! They might not have read the sign too well, but they were cool ! All the best, Wulfy
my poor travis best cop magnet on the planet
That smile in the thumb nail ☺️
That Cops awareness is poor, he can’t read, while standing beside Travis he has his arm stuck in his vest on the Gun side, so much for Officer Safety. Let Travis sleep man.
You’re window looks like my microwave door. It’s cool because it protects you from lasers and stuff.
He left as soon as you mentioned Heinz Ketchup, that must of made him hungry
Sometimes a cop is just doing their job, this one was cool, respect to you and I hope you Happy TRAVELS
he just wanted to roust you and encourage you to move on

Physical actions and demeanors by cops are completely different than physical health, obviously! However, it seems 80% + of all law enforcement anymore are obese, and it makes them look lazy and gluttonous, especially older cops with tenure. That's what happens when they get too fattened up off the hind tits of the citizens wallets and civil forfeiture

Ok, I'll add to some of the likely similar comments. We used to have weight and physical fitness standards for police officers. Unless he changes something drastically, this cop does not have a long future ahead of him and will likely cause the tax payers a fair amount of cost in type 2 diabetes medicine, heart and other surgeries, workers compensation, sick time, and early retirement.
