He was in a marked car wearing his uniform

Just awesome

Saw this on the news last night just another cop thinking their above the law. Glad their was another cop to put him in his place.

That's awesome! I always wondered if we can pull a cop over and make a citizens arrest or something besides just reporting it to the station which will result in nothing.. Some cops are just dickheads

I applaud the female officer...she did exactly what she was supposed to do and didn't give the other officer a freeride simply because he also has a badge. We need more like her and less like that speeding ahole cop.

Did not know this. So, that's seriously messed up. They will probably job him.

bravo to her for putting that a-hole in his place. taking advantage of his authority, shit like this happens every day and us citizens cant do jack

[txz4]

saw a local cop drift a corner a few years back at a light going at a pretty good speed, dude slowed down to normal speed right after, just taking advantage of the badge.

I agree with this cop pulling the gun, after all, dont forget that ALL cops carry guns and cop cars are typically similarly equipped. you never know who is driving the car or even if its really a cop.

[aapl]

Terrible really... not only is he burning tax payer gas (excessively too at 120 mph), but could you imagine the lawsuit if he would have hit an innocent driver with that car...


not to mention the injuries....

In the video of the incident, the Trooper is yelling at the guy saying "I thought someone stole a cop car! How could you not see me!"

He can't even use the excuse of his patrol car having limo tint as why he didn't see her since his car had no tint. Plus, FHP uses those obnoxiously bright LED light bars. You can see them pulled over on the side of the road for at least 5 miles, so I have no idea how this guy didn't see her.

It's roughly twice the average word size.
