| Q. |
Why don’t we have bicycles and motor officers? |
| A. |
Due to our wide area and limited number of officers, these modes of transportation are usually not efficient.
|
| Q. |
Why is my car pulled in if I don’t have a license with me? |
| A. |
You must present your license when pulled over. The officer is bound by the safe streets act to pull the vehicle if you cannot produce a valid license.
|
| Q. |
Can’t more be done about people going around school buses that are stopped? |
| A. |
We are increasing our patrol and have adopted a zero tolerance policy when individuals drive around these buses.
|
| Q. |
Who can I call to either commend or complain on an officer? |
| A. |
You can call Captain Harris at 951-1437 or Lieutenant Stapp at 951-1381. They will either handle your concern or delegate it to the proper supervisor.
|
| Q. |
Why do I get a ticket for no seat belt? This seems to be a violation of my rights. |
| A. |
Again, this is area that is mandated by law and the officer must comply.
|
| Q. |
Are drugs a big problem in Irondale? |
| A. |
All cities in the United States have some sort of drug problem. We have started a more aggressive program to confront this in Irondale. My early analysis after being here two months is that we have less of a problem than most cities our size.
