WATERBURY, Conn. -- The state Department of Motor Vehicles Monday suspended a commercial vehicle safety inspector, accusing him of soliciting and receiving gifts on the job.

The agency said inspector Richard Sabonis was placed on administrative leave pending the results of an internal investigation. State police also were asked to begin a criminal investigation. A telephone number could not be found for Sabonis. The DMV said Sabonis has worked for the agency for 13 years.


13 years down the drain

Gee that's to bad. :lol:

I wonder what type of "gifts?" One can receive a lot of payola in 13 years. :?

Damn, I feel bad about giving those two NM DOT officers free sodas when I got DOT'd while working for Pepsi.

Did you get a ticket?

I Think there is a difference between you giving them sodas and them asking for them

Nope. Truck passed with flying colors. 8)
