    also, if this cop was using a radar gun, the guy has the right to see it.....this cop screwed up in every way...i wouldn't be surprised if this video is shown to recruits as what not to do...

    ABSOLUTELY, I've done the same thing and I was shown it on the radar gun or in another instance I was taken and he sat me in the car and the speed I was going kept flashing over and over 81-in a 65 zone. I was scared I was only 20 at the time.

    Now in another occasion I was coming back from the beach and speeding on a 2 lane road in the Outer Banks. I cop passed me on the other side of the road, rolled around came up behind me and pulled me over. She came up to the car and asked me for L/R and I gave them to her and she said I was speeding.

    I said "OK how fast was I going and how did you determine how fast I was going". The reason I asked was that I knew she didn't have a radar gun cause I had a radar/laser detector. She never gave me an answer, she then said "radar detectors are illegal". I said yes they are however in the 6 years I been going to the beach I've never seen a sign that radar detectors are illegal in this state of North Carolina. It's illegal in Virginia and Washington DC but not in NC. I remove it when I travel through those states and city.

    She knew this too and was totally pissed and frustrated by now cause saw that I was not intidated and I knew my stuff. She basically let go and told me to take it easy.

    There's no way she can determine my speed going the opposite direction without a radar gun and would have come back and gone to court had she attempted to give me a ticket.

    You do have the right to ask sensible questions in a polite manner and the officer is or should be obligated to answer them.

    So lets see, you admit you were speeding (something you must obviously do routinely thus the detector)...but then go on to harrass the officer and get out of a ticket. Wow, you must be proud.

    The guy probably was speeding and probably deserved a ticket, but this cop did not handle the situation or this man very well. There is much worse out there. A seasoned cop would know how to talk through the situation.The following is probably my favorite speeding video. This has to be the most patient cop ever. Gets really entertaining around 2:20.

    I had a radar because it's legal in the state I live, if it wasn't I would not have one back then. As for the officer in what way did I harrass her? She knew radar detectors were legal in NC but tried to portray that they were illegal. If I didn't know what was up she would have gotten away with it. Who is harrassing who get your facts straight.

    I asked the right questions in a polite manner that's why this incident did not escalate.

    What I found interesting was when the fucking pig was talking to the wife he said, "well, he wanted to be in charge..."

    Now I'm sure there are exceptions but generally speaking, cops are the scum of society. They were obviously abused as children or had some sort of inferiority complex in middle school that made them want to "be in charge" of others.

    And let's be honest, they certainly aren't smart. Anyone willing to settle for a shitty job with shitty pay and absolutely no moral payoff at the end of the day is a fucking idiot. I think cops are the fuck ups that even the military won't accept.

    with peoples attitudes like this it's no wonder sometimes cops get a little defensive. what the cop did in this situation was stupid and the kid prob shouldn't have started walking back to his car. The officer should be disciplined no one will really argue that. But good grief, i bet you love this when you get some bad press about a cop and it helps cement your skewed views.

    On the youtube video there is a CNN interview with both the driver and the cop. I don't have speakers at work, but will definitely be checking this out later to see what the cop has to say and if he has been punished.
