LOL the cop is also an idiot.

I'm going to arrest you for kidnapping

WTF?

The officer is correct. Holding anyone against their will is kidnapping. Technically he was, however briefly, "kidnapping" the officer when he obstructed the officer's exit.

ZV

Not true. Of course, this depends entirely on your local laws and the nature of the crime being committed.

:laugh:

You try to "citizens arrest" me and you're going to have some issues...

Here is the story for this...


ACCOMACK COUNTY, Va. (WAVY) - A YouTube video of an Accomack County Sheriff's deputy allegedly speeding has become the talk of the Eastern Shore. The driver who videotaped the deputy later confronted him.

Accomack County Sheriff Larry Giddens says Deputy Jason Campbell was simply caught on tape making a mistake. He tells WAVY.com the young officer wasn't responding to a call and shouldn't have been speeding. The sheriff says Campbell has been disciplined. He wouldn't tell us Deputy Campbell's punishment.

'Don't do it again, k?'

'K.'



IMHO, following / catching up to the officer made the situation much more dangerous- Mr. Civic was likely fixated on the cruiser, and not paying as much attention to everything else as he should have been. Granted, this is conjecture- but still.

What do you think the situation is when it's reversed? Just as dangerous.

Which would be why I drive a marked emergency vehicle equipped with emergency lights and siren.

I'm pretty sure that's not standard equipment on Mr. Civic's rig. Oh, and I don't chase people while holding a video camera, either.

Plus it's legal for me to exceed the posted speed limit while catching up to a violator. Minor details, y'know?

Didn't see porker trying to catch up to a violator.

Minor detail, y'know?

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

80's the avg speed in nj too, but cops will pop out and randomly pull someone over to make an example of them. if they see you going the speed limit, they blow by you at 80 and stare you down

Let me sum this up:

1. Cops are above the law
2. Nobody dare question cops
3. Citizens need to shut up and deal with 1. and 2.

Not quite, but thanks for trolling.

pretty much when it comes to traffic laws bro. traffic court is a kangaroo court system for the most part in many bumblefuck towns too.

Due to your apparent inability to comprehend the English language, I'll walk you through the conversation, step by step. I'm feeling particularly generous this evening.

We start with my statement here:

IMHO, following / catching up to the officer made the situation much more dangerous- Mr. Civic was likely fixated on the cruiser, and not paying as much attention to everything else as he should have been.

amicold responded:

amicold's opinion was that it was just as safe for Mr. Civic to follow the cruiser as it is for a cruiser to catch up to a traffic violator prior to a traffic stop. Mr. Civic's vehicle was not equipped with visual and audible emergency equipment of the sort commonly found on emergency vehicles. As such, he was inadequately prepared to warn the motoring public of his presence as his speeds exceeded that of the vehicle he was unlawfully pursuing. When you factor the handheld video camera into the equation, it makes matters worse.

Really, I could care less that this kid chased down a cop...

My GFs uncle is a cop, and he said he's gone 100+ to a scene, and did not have his lights on before...it happens. I see ambulances run red lights all the time here, without lights.

fake. guy is too young to be a sheriff and you could tell by the license plate. Of all the power tripping cops out there who speeds he so happens to run into a young incompetent idiot? yah right.

First time I was pulled over:
- It was at night
- Cop pursued me with no flashing lights or sirens, only turning them on when he was practically riding my ass (I thought he was some tailgating asshole)
- When he pulls me over, first thing he says "Do you know how fast I had to go to catch up to you?!"

That's SOP, he was running your plates. And I'm sure he wasn't driving a 20 year old car while holding a camera.

Who knows what he was holding when pursuing me, maybe he had a CB or something in 1 hand. The point is the scenario wasn't much different, that's all I'm saying. He could have hit someone just like that guy in the civic could have. I'm not trying to defend everything the guy did, I am just saying his pursuit wasn't all that different to ones I've personally witnessed, that's all.

i had a cop tell a judge he had to do 100+ to catch me on my motorcycle one time... pissed me off, the asshole stopped me less than 1/8 mile from where he was stopped on the side of the road. i made a left turn at a green arrow, he cut in front of two lanes of turning cars and i was the closest one to him. must have pissed him off, he pulled me over and tried to take me to jail. reservation cops. anyone know how you can go from 0 to 100+ in 1/8 mile and still catch me? my bike aint even that fast.

 

[Agentbolt]

Damn that kid is stupid. You don't go 90, while focusing on video taping it, to catch a cop in the act of doing something stupid. That just makes a dangerous situation even more dangerous.

On the other hand though, GOD this cop is fucking stupid. Speeding for no reason, didn't arrest the kid for going 90 to try to catch him, that whole "kidnapping" thing. The cop was cornered by a civilian and panicked like a scared little mouse. It's pathetic.

The Boys in Blue sure are showing off their best stuff this week.

 

[cyclohexane]

let's hope that when this guy is in trouble, the cops take their sweet time getting to help him.
