Stopped in Puyallup to grab a coffee on my way from Seattle to Vancouver WA. I was at a large…read moreintersection on 2nd Street making a right into N. Meridian. As I got over to the right lane to make a right hand turn on a yellow light - car next to me went through the yellow light too only he went straight and I turned right. I got a ticket in the mail for running a red light so I go to review my dashcam, go through it and sure enough, I went through two yellow lights, even the ticket shows a yellow lights. BUT, after researching it further, evidently. there was a red light "arrow" over on the sidewalk for this specific lane. 1. I was looking up at the two lights above that were TURNING yellow at the time I made the right hand turn, always look to verify no one was coming from the left or across the way. 2. Why on earth would the light on the sidewalk be red BEFORE the other two lights above? 3. Why would all three lights not be in sync? 4. Why is there no signs alerting drivers to a THIRD light for the right hand lane is on the the SIDEWALK and that you have cameras on that specific lane....seems like a set up. I am 55 years old and have a flawless, and I mean flawless driving record, and I sincerely believe I was innocent as I made a legal right hand turn on a yellow light. It's beyond me, why there is a need to have a third light off to the side on the SIDEWALK that would be red BEFORE the other lights turn red (NOTE: THIS LIGHT is much lower that the other two lights) This was unfair to have to pay $124.00 for taking a right hand turn on a two yellow lights. AGAIN, two out of three lights were yellow. NO REASON FOR THE TURN LANE TO BE RED BEFORE THE OTHER LIGHTS TURNED RED. This was their response...."I agree, the lights for the straight ahead traffic were amber at the time you made your turn, however the light controlling your lane was red. Also, I reviewed many "3 light set-ups" like this in my town of Vancouver WA and they are ALL in sync, I can't find even one sidewalk light that is RED before the other two turn red. Many sidewalk lights or right lane lights are green while the other two are red but never red before the other two turn red. To me...this three light setup is DECEPTIVE and it going to get unsuspecting drivers every time. BUT, this is REVENUE for the City of Puyallup.

Apparently they don't allow walk ins anymore since the first of June. I was here Tuesday the 7th…read morefor a walk in, they were full and I scheduled for Thursday that week. I show up with my brother who needed a walk in and couldn't get an appointment until the 28th of July, the lady assisting the arrivals proceeded to say that they don't allow walk ins anymore. This was clearly odd seeing as I was here just 2 days ago and they had a very long line of walk in customers. I was called a liar by the lady and this could have been avoided by simply saying she didn't know anything about that but to call me liar just because she works there all day and didn't know I was in a walk in line for 30 min that week is rude and unprofessional. Also they no longer do drivers test here only at Lakewood. I recommend going to a drivers school for your testing as to avoid being booked out a month or more.

It's been a while since I have had to renew my driver's license and as that amount of time has…read morepassed since my last renewal quite a few licensing offices have closed around Tacoma which makes the remaining ones considerably more challenging to navigate. What I mean by this is in reference to this specific location is that parking can be quite a challenge to this small parking lot for the visitor section and a line of people waiting is accumulates extremely fast and as a result the longer the line grows the slower it's going to be. So making an appointment is the way to go here. Definitely plan a considerable amount of time ahead to get to this location in case you make a wrong turn as well as waiting to find a parking place...because you are bound to have to sit in your car until a space opens up...but the best way to avoid all that in addition to the appointment is take the first time slots that are available when you make an appointment online. Depending on the day it's like 9 a.m. or 10 a.m. If you go with the earlier option that's the best because there are already a bunch of people sitting in the lobby ready to start the line. So key things here....1) make an appointment...2) take the earliest time slot (9 a.m. if you can) which will give you a greater likelihood of meeting your appointment and getting your car parked with relative ease. For those who made an appointment the line is much smaller upon opening and if you check in you will get a confirmation number in which it will be called upon. Once you go up to a representative for me at least the process itself was fast. They confirm your residential address, make sure height and weight are accurate, get your picture taken and if need be you take an eye exam...typical stuff as usual with the renewal process there. You get the choice if you want to renew your license for six or eight years. I went with the eight year option as our lives are busy enough and the longer we can have a license and reduce the frequency of the renewal licensing process the better. Once all the usual information and process was done...which was very smooth and efficient it took only about seven minutes for the renewal itself if you don't count the time of waiting for the doors to open to the department (it took an hour from start to finish from leaving home and getting back to home). Another aside at this office is if you are in for a wait and need the restroom you will need a code. Maybe you can get in if someone else enters the code but if not you will need to probably get it from the receptionist.

Today as I passed a cop, I was traveling at the same speed as a car to the left of me. When the cop turned onto the street they got directly behind me and followed me all the way to the freeway. Their big ego had to follow me that they went through a red light just to catch up. I'd rather be policed by unbiased cameras than bullying biased cops that threaten and intimidate.

The Sergeant literally called me with a pre-notion already from the video he watched defending his coworker. All I said was for him to have a little bit more patience and stop being so assertive for nothing considering he's the one that pulled me over and wants to give me a ticket. I don't think you need to rush an individual. The sergeants response was well we have to give citations in a timely manner and all policeman have an assertiveness when they speak.. I doubt I was gonna take up an hour of this guy's time considering he was already sitting across the street just waiting for somebody to make his quota and I'm sorry no not everyone has the same approach with how they speak to someone or else the police force would be worse than it already is in the public's eye. Good luck out there WA people.

Twice I've been to this location to report a domestic violence. The first time the guard at the…read morefront desk said I couldn't be the one to report one because it's not happening to me. The second time I came with my mom (who was the one being abused) but apparently emergencies only happen between 8am-4pm so they were closed. There were two officers in vehicles parked outside. So I tried to approach them while still leaving distance for their safety. But one showed me a"hold on finger" and the other fully showed me his hand. Like hold on, he was also yelling at someone looked like he was on the phone, just angry. So we patiently waited there for 10-15 min in the February 38 degree weather. But to no help. Protector and serve is NOT what they do. No wonder why people hate cops. They don't even make time for a question. My mom just came out of a DV situation with my father. My mom needs her medication and had nothing with her when she ran away. These people are useless and I guess I just have to figure it out myself.

This is the most corrupt police dept. I have ever encountered. Hey definitely cover for their own…read more I was stopped for a supposed traffic infraction (which was dropped in court) and since I hadn't done anything wrong I gave the officer what for. He immediately got out of control. His name is Chad Chapman. He pulled me out of my car. Again, I had committed no crime unless the spoken word is now a crime, and he threw me in the back of his car (basically kidnapping me). Oh yeah, not before manhandling me. I asked for his supervisor who eventually showed up. His supervisor whose actual name is Sgt. Sargent, threatened me with arrest if I did not apologize. Basically this took away my first amendment rights. He also did not read me my rights. Therefore my 5th amendment rights were also subverted. This has been psychologically damaging to me and as a women they got away with harassment, assault and kidnapping very easily. I tried reporting to internal affairs and nothing happened. I called again and no callback. I requested the report on this stop and funny how there is no report. I had got my phone out to record this before I was assured and got a little bit of the interaction. I guess I'll have to file a lawsuit when all o was looking for was an apology! Disgraceful!!! Don't trust these people!
