Some ******* hit and ran my car
What a ****ty day, first I miss the bus by like a minute(the same bus thats always 3-7 min. late). So I go to ask my roommate for a ride, ****er is in the shower, so I drive onto campus. There is a huge mess at the parking garage, and I end up 5 minutes late for my midterm. I come out and UCD TAPS is standing next to my car, I figure the ***** is writing me a ticket, nope, so ****er hit my car and took off. What makes me even more pissed off is that, somebody got the license plate # and discription of the truck and reported it to TAPS. But ****ing TAPS is too god damn stupid to get the person's name and tele, so the Police officer tells me he can't do anything with the license plate number.
I really needed to vent, what a ****ed up course of events. If anyone in Davis see's a white ford(chevy?) pickup with a bent up front left bumper I saw his license # but all I can remember is 4466 in it, something like 5J*4466 or 5J4466*, it's a commercial plate let me know, and get the whole #.

The police should be authorized to access DMV's computer to see whot he registered owner is...that is bull****...thats what the police is for...ofcourse they can do something with the lisence plate #...what u think if someone was driving and ran some kid over in his car and left, but someone got the lisence plate # they police couldnt find out who ran the kid over, or atleast tell you whot he registered owner of the vehicle is???
I would talk to someone else about this, dont let it go..

Don't even waste your time with campus police... you need to go through the Davis police department and see what they could do. It was the same thing when i was in the military...they couldn't do anything if they were an E4 or below so i just ripped up the tickets in their faces if they were. The campus police are those that didn't do well in academy. By the way... did you exchange info with the witness because you may need to contact that person before you go.
If they tell you NO give them the "I'm a tax payer and i pay your wages" line.... or give them the "What could possibly be happening in davis to make you guys so busy" line.

if the TAPS are actual law enforcement agency, they should be able to just pop it in their terminal in the car.
so either the dude is lazy or being an %#$%#$%$# OR they aint real cops.
another reason is that they aint suppose to give out information like that.
on campus, we had a moron park illegally and was blocking a coworkers's car so she couldnt get in.
we called out campus cops and they wouldnt tell us who the owner is. they called his office and left him a message.
i had to use other means to get the owner of the car...

it is total BS.
someone reported a crime. cops are foremost LAW ENFORCEMENT. which mean just that.
good chance though that they are working on it. like i said, that aint suppose to give out info like that. even when cops talk on their radio, they have a special code when the dispatch has to trasmit info not for listening (remember, people with scanners can hear them too) by the public.
give it a day or 2, then go to them and ask if anything has happened.

Dude, if I were you I would be FUMING!!! I mean smoke coming out my focking ears and heads rolling.
You need to march over to "TAPS" HQ and get some goddam answers. I could go off for a few days on this one, but I'm gonna hold back for time's sake. First of all hit and run is a focking felony!!! Ask them if they know this. Then ask them if they are peace officers. When they say yes, ask them if hit and run is against the law. When they say yes, ask them what they are going to do about it. They will proceed to give you a roundabout load of BS, so feel free to cut them off between 2 and 4 seconds to avoid them wasting any more of your time. Tell them you have a partial license plate number. Ask them if they want it. When they start flapping their lips, cut them off again and ask if they have access to the DMV database. If they say no and they are carrying a gun or part of a real PD, they do. Tell them to stop lying to your face. Be loud and very aggressive, but try not to be rude. Just let him/her know that they're not dealing with a passive douche bag. Do not let them walk away until you get answers. Get their badge number and threaten to contact his/her superior if they continue to brush you off. Do the same thing until you get to the head of the TAPS. Ish like this REALLY pisses me off. Please post what you find out on here as I for one would really like to know what happens.

I think the point the cop was trying to make was that the lic plate w/o any sort of witness to back it up is useless in any sort of trial or court. but if they contacted the guy, i would think that they could at least try to get him to confess to it or ****ing something. It just seems to be ridiculous that they wouldn't run the plate.
Edit: and the Plate that was given was A FULL plate to a commercial vehicle. It's jsut that I only saw it at a glance and could only remember part of it.

and whatever happened to the witness you had? why don't you try to track him down? i bet if you stood at the same place at the same time next week, you'd see him.
