So because you couldn't find anyone to GIVE you permission, you rolled over and left? The cops didn't even tell you to stop/leave! LOL! You went all the way (well, not that far for you now, I guess) to Newark specifically to take rail photos and you let these incompetent fools walk all over you??? You don't value your time, it seems. the trolley operator saw me, stopped his car, and admonished me that I "needed permission" to take pictures of his train. I asked him, "From the street? He insisted he knew what he was talking about.Who cares what he thinks? Seriously! You know what the laws are (or in this case, aren't). You listened to him and stopped taking photos or no? Why are NJT people still insisting I need permission to photograph their trains, even from a public street?I have a lot of respect for train operators and other front-line transit employees, but some things have become obvious here over the years and I'm surprised you haven't picked up on it - these people are WRONG, a lot. It usually has to do with transit-related stuff that isn't in their job description. Thus, they are commenting on things that they don't know about and would have no reason to know about (and it's not just transit workers, as the same is true for anyone in any job). For example, a supposed photography policy. It's not the train operator's job to enforce a photography policy, even if it did exist (at worst they could tell/ask you to stop but they wouldn't do much more than that before just calling supervision or the cops). These personnel are supposed to report suspicions persons and actions to their supervisors or police (at least i assume that's the case, as that's what NYCT personnel are supposed to do). Not very reassuring that these people are not following their Homeland Security/internal security training. Sorry to hear that you were HARASSED but you also need to stand up for yourself and your rights and the American way. G-d bless the USA! Goodnight. |
