Ok, so I didn’t make a citizens arrest, but I did call the cops on some people the other day. I was on the freeway heading north when I noticed something strange in the car in front of me. I was horrified to see a woman in the backseat holding a baby and holding the baby above her head. The baby had to be between 2 and 3 months old.

I called the police and followed them until they pulled into a parking lot. When they got out I looked into their car and they had a car seat in there but it was not strapped down and was facing the wrong way for a baby that little. The cops got there just after they got out of their car and since they didn’t see them in the act of having the child unrestrained they couldn’t do anything about it and the women were lying about having the baby strapped into the car seat. Grrrrrr. The cop said that they could issue the driver a citation but most likely they would contest it in court and  I would have to go testify against them. In the end it would be their word against mine and would not go anywhere. I didn’t want to have to hassle with that so the cop promised me that he would make sure to lecture the mom about what she did.
