He showed him his id and badge and told him he can search on his data base by policy number but the officer didnt care at all and gave me a no insurance ticket. Not even a fixable ticket?? Seriously? I could have just went down the street where it might be signal and provided him the insurance but he stayed silent and left me with a "no insurance ticket" even though i do. And he still wouldn't answer my question. He was very nervous. I showed him i just had a claim last month and all info. Anways ill see you in court

Disappointed and frustrated with APD's inaction and unhelpfulness with a crazy-making situation…read morewith a toxic neighbor. I have an upstairs neighbor who has been causing a relentless noise disturbance in my home, using some vibrating sound machine every day and at nearly all hours. Attempts to discuss the issue with the neighbor directly and respectfully have only resulted in her spitefully ramping up the noise assault. It has made for a truly unbearable living situation. My property management company has been useless (see previous review of Drysdale Property Management), so I reached out to APD for help. I called and reported the situation, and an officer called me back a short time later. I explained the situation in detail, stressed the seriousness of matter, and pleaded for any assistance they could provide to put a stop to this. The officer told me he would talk to the neighbor and Drysdale and get back to me. Then... nothing. Not another word about the matter. I called and left a voicemail for the officer asking for a follow-up, and still got nothing. Meanwhile the noise assault continues, and I have been pretty much displaced from my home, as I literally cannot be in my apartment when this noise machine is running, which is all waking hours of every day. The neighbor turns the machine on first thing in the morning and leaves for the day, leaving the noise on, and not turning it off until nighttime. When I called APD for help, it was for a reason. If the situation wasn't serious, or could be handled any other way, I wouldn't be calling. So treat it seriously. APD should have visited my residence, listened to the noise for themselves, then made in-person contact with the offending neighbor and put the neighbor on notice that the noise harassment is unacceptable and needs to stop. A phone call is not an appropriate response in a situation like this. A visit from the police sends a message. A phone call much less so. I still have no idea if the APD even talked to the neighbor, as there has been zero follow-up. This isn't the first time I've noticed passiveness from the APD, especially in recent years. Slow response times (if they respond at all), phone calls instead of in-person visits, and a hands-off approach seem to have become more the rule than the exception, and I'm not the only one in town who has noticed this. I know police departments across the country have experienced major public blow-back for excessive force in the past, but the solution is not going in the extreme opposite direction, and just not intervening in situations that deserve to be handled seriously and promptly. I will give the officer I spoke with credit for advising me how to go about addressing this through the legal system, but I still expected more of an assertive response from the APD themselves. I expected help. This is what we pay taxes for. The only time I see APD reliably showing up these days is in the South Shore shopping center, apprehending shoplifters. Because when it comes to a business' bottom line being affected, they're on it, but when it comes to a crazy neighbor making your life a living hell, you're on your own, and good luck dealing with the clown show known as civil court. Unacceptable.

Just went to my first Rockridge NCPC meeting. This is a branch of the Neighborhood Crime Prevention…read moreCouncil. They meet at the library once a month with representatives of the police and are a great resource to learn about crime and safety in the Rockridge area, as well as a venue to talk to actual beat police about concerns about safety. Robberies and burglaries appear to be on the rise in this great neighborhood and a strong community that knows their neighbors is one way to reduce incidents in the area. Recommended to all residents of Rockridge. I met some neighbors, learnt some interesting details about how to reduce likelihood of becoming a target, got recommendations on safer ways to commute home.

They were called and arrived shortly after...ahhh quick. Two paramedics first and then a cavalry of firefighters all with intent to help. They get me to the ambulance and hook me up, asking a bunch of questions all the while making me as relaxed and calm as I could be...perfect. Their professionalism was showing all the while. The driver had a good time with the lights and sirens, not needed but why not. Arrived at the hospital and they made sure I was placed in good hands with a seamless transition. Much appreciated. After my release from the hospital I was walking back to my car and unexpectedly walked by their firehouse. I stopped to wait for them to back up their fire engine and one of the fireman recognized me from the morning. He came out and asked me how I was doing. He didn't have to do that but he did! That's straight kindness. Last words...God bless you all at Station 3.
