Since he wasn't on duty, I'd have politely said sorry, done my window up and driven away lmfao

Oh get out of here, doesn't matter how many violations he did, the cop was clearly in a rage while the driver was calm, he has absolutely no right to speak to him like that at all, the Cop sounded like he was suffering from a dose of road rage which fits perfectly with story attached to this video

gone viral so what. It gives no context and therefore is just a little slice of sensationalism.

lol yes he was transfered ehich is code for "police chief seen to be doing something"

I like this bit from that article

"Michael Palladino, president of the Detectives' Endowment Association, noted he is "not trying to minimize the significance of what occurred."

"I am simply pointing out that cops are just like everyone else," Palladino added. "They have families, friends, and other things going on in their lives, too, that may affect their behavior at times. There is no disputing that we are held to a higher standard and that is why this incident is so newsworthy. Detective Cherry is a person of good character and an excellent Detective. He really should not be judged by one isolated incident."

Is that a serious comment? What does that have to do with anything? The guy were telling the driver he did nothing wrong while he was trying to explain to them. If he had committed a traffic crime does that warrant the attitude of the cop?

The driver apologized on a number of occasions, called the officer 'sir' a couple of times too but got anger and rage in return. Seems to be happening quite a lot these days.

So when a driver has to endure that kind of abuse for a traffic offense FFS then the police issues statement abut how they're human too. For a traffic offense. FFS Its laughable that a cop cant keep his cool on such a routine situation. Its a crazy excuse.

I like how the guys in the back handled it. They could have told the cop he was in the wrong but hey what would have happened next?

He didn't want to be arrested and so was quite rightly submissive, if those guys hadn't have been in the back he would have been.
