That does appear to be over the top/harassing policing. The fabricating of reports just makes this even worse.

I would hope that the upper management of the police officers are also looked into as fabricating a police report is very serious and sounds it is more than just one police officer. Police managers need to be more diligent in making sure something like this does not continue, which it sounds like no one is doing that.

PS I did not know that the registry did not need to be notified if the color of ones vehicle changed. Good on him for knowing the law.
