CHP Traffic stop

About 10 a.m., a California Highway Patrol Officer made a traffic stop on an SUV towing a trailer through Redway on Redwood Drive, confirmed Officer Rick Fowler of the CHP. Law enforcement spent several hours with the driver and the vehicle.

While cannabis was located, as of the time we spoke with Fowler, no total weight of the product located was yet known. “They are still calculating,” he told us.

“The driver was cited and released for possession for sale,” he said.

Those [edit] stole my husbands money and marijuana. They didn’t even find the cash and pills he had so the joke is on them! The marijuana was moldy trim, the rest of our harvest was sold for top $$$. Lol stupid police state!

Dang, you guys are so cool!

So, the cops stole his money? Was that the decoy money and they didn’t find the million hidden inside of the spare tire?
Why would you elude to him also carrying pills that sound like he didn’t have a prescription for and probably for sales.

I’m also wondering if you were knowingly going to sell someone your moldy trim

Reason for stop? I tow a trailer often for construction work. Should I be stopped for driving through Redway just because I have a trailer behind my truck.

They were coming into town at well over 40 mph past where it becomes a 35, with a chp behind them. The driver also admitted to be smoking a joint while driving.

All trucks have commercial plates and can be pulled over for inspection at any time.

That’s not a truck. It’s an SUV. SUV’s don’t have commercial plates.

If a truck has a shell it can we registered as a vehicle for human habitation and it is not a commercial vehicle either, but you can’t drive it without a shell.

Perhaps they are scrutinizing a little more now.

https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/?1dmy&urile=wcm:path:/dmv_content_en/dmv/pubs/reg_hdbk/ch6/ch6_12

Pickup with Camper—A pickup with a camper (previously defined) is a camper that is permanently attached to a pickup for human habitation or camping purposes. Do not verify facilities for human habitation. A pickup with a camper temporarily attached is not a housecar. Adding a camper shell to a pickup truck does not necessarily constitute the vehicle being changed from commercial to auto registration.

The addition must meet the definitions for human habitation or camping purposes. Otherwise, the vehicle owner may be subject to citation from law enforcement for not meeting the definition for auto registration.

Why the uproar? Are you guys fucking stupid? Oh, ok I’ll just tow my trailer like every other grow[edit] and claim I’m a construction worker. Ummm me thinks you are transporting illegal narcotics and didn’t check your tail lights. Don’t commit misdemeanors while doing a felony

Drive those big ass inclosed trailers like the legion of Eastern Europeans do. Locked up on a new dodge with a decoy car behind you and a car out 4 clicks ahead of you with radio coms. Just make sure your decoy car has no brake lights and a couple of beer bottles to throw out the window when the “bears” get behind you.

A tail light is not as good as a headlamp being out on decoy. No beers, no drugs and no weapons best to use hot chick driving fast car (especially in the south) with a good record 10 miles above the speed limit. Her job is to clear the road, hit the rest and truck stops wait for convoy then repeat until arrival. 😁. Convoy should only be on road for specific times of the day but never between 11pm and 6am, better safe than sorry.

Break one law at a time. If you are transporting weed (even moldy on it’s way to the dump) have all your lights and license plates in order.

Could have just used a Chrysler 300 on rims, those never get pulled over. That’s a super trust worthy vehicle.

Why cant the us government pay growers buy their weed and turn it around and sell it at us dispensaries across the US and overseas, set what they pay ANY grower based on current market values and be done with this whole shit show. I mean its clear, no matter how its handled it’s for money, not medicine for the people type shit, and our government is always going to be involved. Let’s just make it another US subsidized industry.

Probably because no one would buy drugs from the police? Just a guess though.
My suggestion is to do like cheech and chong and make the trailer itself out of weed. Lol

Bad guess. COPS HAVE THE BEST DRUGS. We used to get some terrific deals from cops. What the heck do you think they do with stolen drugs, turn it into money.

Bad guess? I do not support corruption, regardless of my own, and for a fact, neither do others. I could gaff about your predisposition to child porn affiliates, incl. any drugs they sell.

Cannabis is legal, so is alcohol. But I can’t make 1000s of gallons of shwil and sell it. Legal or non permitted cannabis growers can produce a shit ton of weed with no oversight and sell it where ever and when ever. Their is no oversight or standard. Don’t panic it’s organic eagle 20 and forbid
