This actually happened to one of my colleagues (not this actual photo) so he arrested the Traffic Warden for 'threatening a breach of the peace'

The situation soon turned messy and a face saving end for both parties was agreed....the ticket was cancelled and the cuffs were removed

Hey, hey, hey what are you talking about? If you see "athletic guy jumping out of his BMW, Mercedes, Porsche etc. which he had just parked on a handicapped spot" he has every right to be parked at that spot. He is suffering from "very small penis" (can I even say the p-word here in subsim, oh hell it's in English dictionary after all). That is as bad (if not worse) disability than any other...

The D-10 really did not care which. Most of my time was with the D-7 and 9, but the times I worked the D-10 were fun.

With those two choices... I'd be a happy camper.

That D-10 looks like a bit of a monster....wouldn't have minded having that close at hand on the odd occasion

Hey, that gives me an idea. I have an uncle who works for a CAT distributor. I wonder if he'd swing me a ride in one sometime.
