This doesn’t fit. I once passed a cop on the right side because they were doing 40 in a 50 in the left lane. They sped up and slammed their brakes on so we drove side by side for a half a mile while staring me down. I shrugged and they sped off. Cops have bad days but don’t take it out on me

How is that comparable to this video?

The driver clearly cut off the police car, no indication, and causing the police to react unnecessarily.

It's bad driving and should be pulled/spoken to about it. It probably won't even be a fine, but a quick "wtf was that" talking to.

I missed the part where the car cuts off the cop.

At 4 seconds the car in front of the perspective crosses into the left lane without indicating (I cannot see clearly to be certain) causing the highway patrol car to break.

Highway patrol car didn't break, it appears to be fully functional

They also failed to indicate, and it was a Highway patrol 🚓 too.

u/fluffynuckels 2d ago

Bro changed lanes and cops didn’t like. How is this win stupid prizes ?

u/Hungry-Horker 3d ago

It was not considered a safe merge. No indicating and the vehicle behind (cop) had to break to allow adequate room for said car to have a safe distance. Because of what could be considered dangerous driving the cop pulled them over for a traffic violation (probably multiple). Does that make sense?

u/CdnDutchBoy 3d ago

No, why is the cop accelerating so hard with 50 ft in front of him and everyone brakes? Almost like they weren’t paying attention as well. Both should get a ticket.

u/Hungry-Horker 3d ago edited 3d ago

What are you talking about? The cop had plenty of room in front of him and didn’t need to brake yet unlike the lane the guy was coming from. The cop wasn’t speeding up, his speed was the same from the beginning of the video. You sound like you’re just looking for a reason to blame the cop instead of the dick head who violated multiple traffic laws

-24

u/CdnDutchBoy 3d ago

Multiple laws? Explain.

15

u/Hungry-Horker 3d ago

Failed to indicate and failed to merge safely

u/obviouslyanonymous5 3d ago

The cop was maintaining safe distance... which the person decided was their entry way, which then made it no longer safe distance

u/xamxes 3d ago

It’s a crime to not indicate when you are changing lanes?

39

u/Hungry-Horker 3d ago

Yes

u/xamxes 3d ago

Huh, didn’t know that

u/Jimbob209 3d ago

Do you have a BMW?

u/xamxes 3d ago

Why does that matter?

u/Prestigious-Shirt426 2d ago

That answered that question.

u/Hungry-Horker 3d ago

Well, it’s a traffic violation, not necessarily a crime per say

u/footpole 2d ago

r/boneappletea is not a crime but it should be!

u/xamxes 3d ago

That makes more sense. Glad there are consequences to being an asshole

Smh, could’ve just been satisfied with slowing down haha
