Local

Police cruiser spins out of control and hits parked car. Owner of parked car will get license suspended for not having insurance. Not only that, but...
"However, when Conklin contacted the city’s insurance carrier Monday, she was told the city would not be paying for the damages because the officer was responding to an emergency."
You can't make this stuff up. Rulers rule. Serfs suffer.
"“The lesson learned here is to make sure you have insurance,” Whitman said."
That's not the lesson. The lesson is rulers are above the law, and the rest of us have to pay the price. It makes no sense to legislate away a person's responsibility for their actions, ever. I'll bet the damage caused by this cop was far worse than the supposed emergency he was responding to.
