Felony convictions do not bar employment, as per the Civil Service announcement for Firefighter in the City of MV. Having no standards allows for a larger pool of applicants, along with a larger number of questionable events they will be involved in.

There are 2 WCPD detectives who are former MVPD who work with the Major Case Squad on serious crimes in MV. The WCPD Street Crime detail also works with the MVPD Street Crime Unit on street level issues and arrests. It's a synergistic relationship that has worked well for MV and for WCPD. The County PD do NOT replace a MVPD officer in any way, they are not on 'patrol' answering calls or replacing an officer on a short roll call.

Holden, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Motors, makes the Holden Commodore, a 'full sized', rear drive car for the Australian market. GM took the Commodore, added a few inches to the wheelbase, changed the grille and a few other details and renamed it 'Chevrolet Caprice', and brought it here to America as a 'Police Vehicle only'. They updated the Commodore for 2014, and will introduce that as a regular Chevy model for the public, called the Chevrolet SS(that's the name, SS). They will continue to also make the Caprice for Police only duty.

The Caprice has too little hip room for even an average sized person, much less anyone over 6 feet. The Explorers are the best of the lot in my opinion.

Good old factpinions...
Here's an idea. Some people want to commit suicide but don't want to do physical harm to themselves. Driving the wrong way into high speed traffic is one way to do it 'innocently'. No matter how many signs or 'failsafe' devices you put up, a person determined to die will bypass them. Lets stop blaming the system (which may not actually be broken) and instead fix who is failing to obey the system.

For further information as to what Tier people are assigned into, please visit the NYS Retirement System website.

Scroll down to the PFRS Section for the correct information.

There were numerous Uniformed Service people that were hired into Tier 3, though this for for a rather short period of time. The only Tier that a PO or FF hasn't been assigned to is Tier 4.Tier 1 was in place until the early 1980's
Tier 2 was in place until Jan. 1 2010
Tier 3 & 4 were for teachers and other non uniform positions and did not affect FD/PD
Tier 5 was in place from Jan. 1 2010 to March 31, 2012.
Tier 6 was put in place to "save millions" on top of what tier 5 was to save. but for tier 5 to save what it was designed to do requires 20+ years according to the controller. While Tier 6 may save a little more, the politicians were able to claim multi millions each time.

It was a Governor's Executive Order that was rescinded years ago.
NYSP is going to black....the royal blue they use costs an extra 800 a car. Troop T (Newburgh) currently has 1T-72 in use, A blue unmarked Tahoe. Does anyone know the # of the law stating unmarked cannot be used?

The problem is not the road design or the lack of 'dummy proof' design. The problem is drivers that have no business being behind the wheel of a car. Every day 99.999% of the population somehow navigates turns, intersections and directions of travel correctly. The problem clearly isn't the design. The problem is that people CLEARLY not capable or able to safely drive anymore get behind the wheel and endanger the rest of us. It's time to start making it a little bit harder to both get and to renew drivers licenses.

all 'charities' have to be registered with the NYS Department of State, Bureau of Charities. All charities must also have their tax returns publicly available. Google around, I'm suspecting that neither will be the case here...Is there any formal investigation, or any ideas how to start one. I have heard all kinds of things about this guy. If he treats litigation aganst people who question him, he must be hiding something. Are his threats aganst those who challenge him valid? Can you question it without the fear of being sued? Can you present stuff to investigators, Anonymously? Is there some way look up his funds used being its a "Charity"

Is this a factpinion?They are not the only ones, but they are the bulk of the problem.

And yes, I get that this is a forum where questions are 'asked out of curiousity', however I wouldn't assume or even put out that a company/department/Squad would allow or have/utilize emergency lights on a vehicle without an emergency reason. Thousands of people in NYC bypass the 911 system every day (Hatzolah and the Voluntary EMS units as two rather big examples) so don't assume that an emergency isn't what the vehicle is going to. Flycars come in many shapes and sizes.
-
The amount of supposition here is astounding. Not only does Transcare hold numerous 911 contracts with numerous hospitals throughout the city, it also does do interfacility transports (which anyone knows can be an emergency in itself) but no regulation or rule states that a person having a medical emergency has to call 911 and no regulation or rule states that Transcare has to call 911 for said emergency, no matter your definition of 'emergency'.
No, I do not know the reason for the vehicle, but I wouldn't be so pompous as to go on a 'public' forum and start assuming it was 'just go red lights and sirens'. How hard would it have been to pick up the phone, call Transcare and ask?

I believe he meant Troopers assigned to the Motor Carrier Unit.
Or Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit, or whatever they call themselves.

Negative to your negative. The link you posted is for cities only with a population of over 100,000 residents.Negative. According to the most recent FBI UCR report Flint Michigan is. Camden doesn't even make the list but gets an honorable mention....

As it reads, the tested position is for a trainee who will then be enrolled in the EMT program. After the EMT program they will be the 'trainee' name will be changed to EMT. The position title technically will 'lead to' becoming an EMT.
