Rochester, NY Mayor Lovely Warren |
Rochester, NY Mayor Lovely Warren's uncle/personal bodyguard/chauffeur was pulled over by New York State Police last Wednesday, driving 97 miles per hour on the thruway.
Reggie Hill, who was hired by Warren just days after taking office, in a controversial move where she unilaterally created a position for her uncle, and a second bodyguard, was driving his niece back to Rochester, from Governor Andrew Cuomo's State of the State address, in Albany, NY, when a NYS trooper clocked Lovely Warren's SUV going 32 miles per hour over the speed limit on Interstate 90, near Gloversville, NY.
According to the Albany Times Union, Lovely Warren's spokeswoman, Christine Christopher that "Hill thought he was exceeding 80, but absolutely not 90."

Reggie Hill is a retired New York State Police investigator.
As an activist, writer and blogger exposing police misconduct and corruption, I talk a lot about preferential treatment among law enforcement officers.
There's a very well known, but unspoken rule in the law enforcement community, where "you don't write" a fellow law enforcement officer, meaning you don't issue a ticket to another law enforcement officer, active, or retired.
Lovely Warren's uncle later told Christopher that the reason he wasn't issued a ticket, was because it is "standard safety protocol to travel faster than the average speed" when traveling on the Thruway.
According to the Albany Times Union story, when it comes to security details, which is what Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren's uncle is, there are no exceptions of exceeding speed limits.
Only law enforcement officials, in designated vehicles, responding to emergencies are permitted to exceed speed limits.
