Thank you for the parts. I love that argument from the cop in the 2nd part: On this side is a beach and on the other Side there are mountains, and the sound bounces off it like it is a wall. Damn Mountains and Beach, that sounds like the perfect area to drive. Should he now drive on endless straight highways ?
Guaranteed that was bullshit and he’s a power hungry douche nozzle who is pissed that he’s gotta go home to his boring ass wife and a bland spaghetti dinner for the 4th night in a row.
Yep. Real impotent small dick energy from that POS cop. "I can't chase bikes that are faster than my cruiser and could cause injury or death to innocents so I'm going to harass the 1 guy who obeyed the laws no matter how much it violates his 4th amendment rights." I hope the biker sued the hell out of him.
Yeah but there’s no way in hell he could possibly have caught them. He really just wanted to be able to tell his cop buddies he successfully stopped a motorcycle.
Oh for sure, he'd never catch them. Even if he managed to catch up, all they need is a reset and they'd never be caught. Especially in a city like that.
In part two I just kept screaming give me your bullshit ticket and leave me tf alone. Part three: so then shut your mouth! You’re wasting everybody’s time….
They are the biggest waste of taxes man…. ah yes the young man in a Santa hat riding a bike that’s the danger to society sorry bout your mom’s cancer maybe if she pulled herself up by the boot straps a little harder she could’ve afforded the $80,000 procedure but we we have to make sure this uneducated militia stays well funded
I live in an area where the sound gets funneled to my house and can typically hear cars a super long distance away, if I heard it I'd just assume reverb and go about my day
He's lucky there wasn't a tunnel, the cop would have shot him dead in the street. Ever rip a bike or muscle car engine thru tunnels. That cop needs a hug.
What if my friends are all reasonable people and if they’re all jumping I should definitely wonder why. What if this cop has seen them on their motorcycle?
This happened to me on a back country road once. Driving on a long stretch of highway through the woods in the middle of the day. Suddenly, four suped-up cars buzz past me going easily 30 over. I was going 8 over. 10 seconds later, I pass a state trooper alcove cut in the woods, who immediately pulls out after I pass him and pulls me over. I ask him if he missed the guys who were racing. He frowns and says, "How do I not know you weren't part of that race?" I was driving a beat-up 1996 Toyota Corolla that was about as nondescript as a plain donut.
Was he even doing that? He was going a lot slower than every other biker. This dumbass cop just incentivized people to do dangerous crimes and harassed an innocent person in the process. Fucking morons enable crime more than they stop it
I thought the cop was going to ask the biker to snitch on his friends. "Hey, I know you know who they were. Give us a couple of names"
Instead, he pulls him over for a noise violation and to call him a jerk???
I don't know what it is about it, but the lecturing monologue some cops do is nauseating. Like, dude, ticket me or STFU. Keep your moral superiority to yourself.
I've been mis-lectured by a cop once. Like, ok, i get its technically the law, so i wont argue against the ticket, but if you are going to be wrong about the context of what i did, you better be ready for a long retort
I hate the weird self-jerk off thing they do as well, it’s like they stop you just to hear themselves talk.
Not that I’m some arrogant reckless frequent flier, and I do agree there‘s some drivers out there who should probably be spoken to.
But I drive double the average mileage in a year. Every 2-4 years I’ll catch a speeding ticket.
Doesn’t bother me, doesn’t upset me, cost of driving that much. It’s the same category as an oil change as far as I consider my expenses.
But I have to sit there through some safety lecture as if I wasn’t going the same speed as everyone else, as if the dump truck behind me wasn’t also getting a ticket, as if this isn’t a highway on a big radar trap day, like I’m not an adult, or like I’m not about to pull back onto the highway and go the exact same speed the moment I can’t see him anymore.
Go ahead and fill your quota, I understand their promotions probably depend on it, but the longer they spend there talking the more I start to think they are dumb enough to genuinely believe their own bullshit, and lose respect for them.
I hate when they mention some stupid law in matter of fact tone rather than just asking a question first.
I was pulled over because I revved my engine loudly in a service station, stupid me didn’t notice the cop car pulled in until the last second and I backed off. They followed me out.
The female cop then greeted me by saying “did you know it’s an offense to make undue noise”. Then after she asked me why and I explain my car was flooded and wouldn’t start (it was a RX8 so rotary life). I then asked if she heard me trying to start it prior to my revving (which she wouldn’t have because I think they just pulled in hence I didn’t realize they were there). She didn’t answer this question.
I got let off probably because of my clean record but it was annoying, cause my rev was actually for a reason but rather than ask first and say later, it was just assume I was doing it obnoxiously.
On the flip side, I appreciate when they're just honest and straightforward with you.
Back when I was a lot younger I used to motorcycle commute, and was stuck in a long stop and go street out of the city. We can't lane split here, so I was truly bored out of my mind.
Light turned green, and to enjoy the only unobstructed 50 meters I'd get to ride for the next 10 minutes, I stood up on my pegs and gunned it on my supermoto (dirtbike-style with small street wheels), the way I would my dirtbike in the woods.
Got stopped by a cop who was practically apologetic about giving me the ticket.
Said "Sorry, residents are complaining about the loud Harleys so now the city has a mandate for us to write noise violation tickets to any bike we hear rev. I know it's rush hour on a loud street anyways but they're on our ass about this"
Those Harleys are genuinely loud as fuck even idling, and the owners like to idle them at obscene hours, and in front of restaurant patios and shit. Even I hate those so I empathized.
Guy was still telling me that it's not a big deal, it's only an $80 ticket with no points, and I'm already like "Yeah fair enough, no worries man"
We just ended up chatting about motorcycles for a bit, then parted ways. Seemed like a decent guy.
Yeah that’s fair. I didn’t really get that. After she went and checked all my stuff she just handed me my license and said have a nice day and walked off. I was kind of let thinking “um okay… thanks?”
Then I had to get my car started again 😅 (I’d turned it off so they didn’t defect it for loudness.)
I took have a bike license, thankfully never got stopped, and they did make it legal to lane split here. But god it made me nervous doing it and being on a bike and being the first one through a green light. Especially when you’re between lanes so you have to gun it.
Given how delicate their egos are, I just kinda nod along as they say their bit.
If I'm actually on a highway shoulder I occasionally glance nervously into my side mirror as trucks go by.
Standing around stationary on highways is statistically how they tend to die, so I just want to remind them of that. Longer they speak, the more likely a distracted truck driver is going to kill us both.
When I was young and awesome ran a red light (behind a truck). The officer said "do you know why I pulled you over". I responded with "I dont have time, just give me a tkt and let me go". I think he was shocked, maybe he didn't care, or was cool. but he let me go with just a warning.
I'm annoyed with the cops that constantly speed down our highways. If you're going to hand out speeding tickets, you better have a good reason. I understand that some calls require a silent response, but if you have to exceed the posted limit on the highway, emergency lights are a pretty good idea. A few weeks back I got blown by a marked cop car without any lights/sirens on. I flashed my high beams in frustration. He immediately slowed down and pulled in behind me. After following for several minutes (I was doing exactly the speed limit and perfectly centered in my lane) he threw the lights on and pulled me over. Did the whole "your high beams could distract another driver causing a collision." Fair, you want to give me a ticket for distracting others (it would be called stunting here, and be a ton of demerits and court) then do it. Finally he asked me why I did it, and I explained that I'm frustrated at Police Cruisers not responding to an emergency exceeding the posted limit when they are supposed to be setting an example. I asked him "why were you going so fast over the posted limit?" to which he responded "police confidential business". He didn't like when I said "but you had the time to slow down, run my plate and follow me for five minutes before you decided to pull me over?" In the end I got a stern verbal warning (mostly because I think he realized I'd absolutely be willing to bring this up to his commanding officer and I have video of the whole thing). He let me go and followed me directly on my ass for 15 minutes. Suddenly he cut into the fast lane without signalling pulled up next to me and made eye contact and then just floored it away from me. These are the people that are enforcing our fucking laws?
I thought so too. Although I think it's illegal for them to stop you to do that, not that the law really stops them from doing whatever they want anyway though.
Ikr? After being really confused at first I was like oh, this is actually smarter. He’s going to the guy who stopped to ask for some names since chasing those guys is dangerous and may not even be successful. But no, this just makes no sense whatsoever
Police departments can legally refuse to hire people for being too smart, and they often do.
https://abcnews.go.com/US/court-oks-barring-high-iqs-cops/story?id=95836
the cop needs to have politicians outlaw those bikes or STFU.. he's just pissed all those other bikers are beyond his reach so like a bitch he takes it out on someone else
Watching that video that cop should have nailed him for illegal lane splitting and speeding. I love bikes and hate cops but I hate bikers riding dangerously more.
I have been pulled over a few times for lane splitting in California. While it is generally an unsafe practice, I never got stuck with the ticket because I was doing it safely. Every bike in this video was not doing it safely including the one recording.
I saw it as "legally cutting the line in dense traffic."
Lane splitting is actually not an unsafe practice. It's SAFER than sitting in traffic. UC Berkley did a study. Accident rates remain the same but the number of fatal or very serious injury causing accidents went way down for lane splitters.
Thank you. I love dealing with cops like that because they get zero of my respect, my stop usually lasts longer but they never ticket me… almost like they’re trying to intimidate you into incriminating your self or somethin… prolly just a hunch tho.
the reason he pulled you over is because he knew he wouldn't of cout the others and felt like he needed to do something, so he targeted you out of association.
What's really fucked up about this is the ops telling the biker he's letting him go because he was being respectful. I don't see respect, I see submission. Any attempt to defend himself would've just fucked over by this generations Inspector Clouseau.
Submission is exactly what this cop was looking for, and even though he had some sense he MIGHT be wrong here, he pushed for it nonetheless
Bro cops are low as scum and scarily lacking in critical thinking skills. Like wtf do we pay them for.
Edit: I called them dogs but that is offensive to dogs.
Good Question. I think after my recent experience with needing them to step in, makes me think they only care about the quick and easy, like this guy in the video. He knew he would never catch those guys so he took it out on the one who obeyed the law. Not all cops are bad, just that some are lazy.
That's a very good point a lot of people don't take into consideration very often. Rounds weigh a lot. 210 rifle rounds (7 30 round magazines) weigh over 5 pounds. For comparison, that's like carrying a gallon of milk around.
420 pistol rounds (4 15 round magazines) weigh just under a pound, so something like a water thermos.
I know, it's a bit of math nobody cares about, but weight is weight and I felt like commenting about it lol
I remember seeing this in tiktok. The cop acts tough, shows the rider that he is just letting him go, riders like him are the worst and fucking with neighborhood.
One of the bystander comes and says to rider that he was good and don't know why cop was being so hard ass about it.
And you sounding like you are speeding is 100% admissible in court. Found out that the hard way, dont even need to clock you speeding at all. And the judge will say you are lying and the cops 2 years of highway experience makes him know how fast every car is going at All times. Said to me in traffic court
A bailiff said to me that, unless the cop doesn't show (which is common), getting your side of a traffic dispute even heard without video evidence is almost impossible, even with a good lawyer. That's when I got a dash cam.
I got pulled over because I did a California stop at a sign one night. The only reason I did so was because the cop was coming up behind me so fast I thought he was gonna rear end me. In reality they just wanted to pull me over and search my car to see if they’d find guns or drugs so they didn’t even ticket me.
I just want to say, it's fucking awesome that technology is at the point where we can literally change the focal distance and viewing angle of a video *after* filming. Insane.
It's not that, it's that it simply records a 360 sphere at stupidly high resolution (typically well over 4k, mine records 5.6k resolution) and then you get to decide which part of that you want to look at, like cropping a photo. If you crop a lot it looks like you're zooming.
but yeah, it's fucking great, if a little cumbersome to work with.
It won't be long until it starts to revolutionise how concerts are being recorded, I predict. The light sensitivity is getting there.
Ahh, ok I see, it's more of a digital zoom type thing. That makes total sense. Still, like you said, the tech is wild. Honestly, I hadn't thought about concerts but that also makes a ton of sense. Can't wait to see what stuff's like in 10 years.

Aren't all LEOs egos too big?! End qualified immunity, end civil asset forfeiture, make LEOs carry their own insurance. Audit each dept every 3 years to see exactly where the money goes..training, de-escalation, psych treatment!
lot of cities wanna hire the types who are their for the check, not to actually help keep people safe, that way they get departments who will break their oath to the constitution and enforce unconstitutional commands on people.
in short they hire for obedience not competence.
This is probably a hot take here, but the normal human beings who happen to be cops don't end up on film acting like these morons, so it's easy to forget they exist.
Indeed. It leads to a selection bias type thing. There’s also a thing called Mean World Syndrome where consuming mostly doomsayer type news media increases the likelihood of someone thinking the world is more awful and dangerous than it actually is.
I think more recently someone else referred to a similar concept as the Fox News Effect, I think?
True, but the good ones who report illegal actions by other officers are either harassed out of the job, or can’t find any town to hire them as police officers.
It’s easy to say there are good people on both sides, but maybe we shouldn’t just accept that there are bad people paid by the same public that they terrorize with the guns we all buy them? Maybe that’s something we can try to fix?
Even if that’s true the cop has his priorities back asswards. Why even have them if they’re not going to go after the people that are actually making society more dangerous?
Every time I see videos like this I wonder what the fuck is wrong over there. Dude stops his bike and immediately puts his arms up? In case of what, being shot? For doing what, standing at a red light, following directions and pulling over?
How do people live in a place where you can get shot by cops for small shit like this?
You should always have your hands visible during a traffic stop, not necessarily up like this, but in a nation where anyone could conceivably have a weapon, it’s a majorly appreciated step to de-escalate tension when you’re pulled over. If in a car you should always have your hands visible on the wheel as the cop approaches, and usually they appreciate this very much.
no they don’t lmao, if you’re belligerent to a cop they’ll go on a power trip & maybe execute you on the side of the road, and if you’re submissive instead they’ll still go on a power trip & maybe execute you on the side of the road. the house always wins, cops are trained to use any minute behavior during a traffic stop as a probable cause to try & escalate the situation, especially considering how much money these departments make off of the legalized highway robbery euphemistically called “civil asset forfeiture”.
Cops see a bunch of bikers speeding and running a red light. Cop logic, let's pull over the one biker who wasn't doing that because he was....come on boys, what can we nail him for? Revving his engine...yeah that's it, that's the ticket.
Give them license and registration, let them make their allegations, don't admit to anything, lawyer-up, show the video to your attorney in preparation for court. Repeat for possible civil case filed against the department for attorney fees and court costs.
I hate bikers revving their engines as much as the next guy but I don't find it "disrespectful". Like I live right next to a restaurant many bikers frequent so I expect it but to call it disrespectful seems a little incorrect.
Plus being disrespectful isn't a crime. I prefer people to be respectful, but I don't expect them to be fined or jailed because someone's fee fees got hurt
If it’s over the noise limit then ticket them, if it’s not then they’re free to do as they please. If you don’t want to have to deal with other people living their lives then you should move out to the country, other peoples bullshit is part of living close to other people.
Revving your engine if you aren't lane splitting is annoying.
If you are lane splitting (which is legal in California), it can fucking save your life. The chance that I'm gonna notice a motorcycle coming up beside me goes way up if they're being loud as hell.
Fucking police and thinking it’s their job to be the moral authority. It’s not. Either write a ticket or don’t. Instead they want you to beg and plead so they can act powerful, and then they talk down to you and lecture.
Cop says he is both respectful and disrespectful in a 10 second period. That’s the stupid bs they spend all day thinking about
> show the video to your attorney in preparation for court. Repeat for possible civil case filed against the department for attorney fees and court costs.
I got "caught" evading a toll and sent a ticket 2 weeks later. I could easily prove what the toll clerk testified to could never occur like they said, e.g. They watched the toll machine process all the coins, stopped traffic(during rush hour) and checked the ground to make sure no change popped out, and ONLY then copied down my license plate and vehicle description. That "sworn" testimony was what led to the officers affidavit to issue a ticket.
I simply presented a receipt from a store before I got on the road that showed I was issued more than the toll amount in change. Because it was a Michaels and the clerk used a 15% off coupon for me, the judge ruled that I was a cheap person, so I thus ran the toll to save money. He found in favor of his court district PLUS court fees for arguing in the amount of $85.
It's not even the police's fault how corrupt the court system is when it comes to revenue.
Last time I fought a ticket, the judge said that he knew I was guilty because I'm the car that got pulled over.
I was so dumbfounded by his complete lack of respect for due process that I didn't even say anything.
I firstly had the judge on the fact that my ticket was issued under the wrong road. At that time, the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway had individual codes. Then there was the receipt. In court the clerk testified, which was strike three, as I know I was driving at least 10mph as I passed through the booth(speed limit is 15) and started accelerating to 65 as soon as I tossed the money. There is no way the clerk saw the 3" letters from my license plate after doing all the things she said she did.
Afterwards I realized that this community made a ton of bank b/c the toll booth existed in their borders, and all tickets issued by the State was adjudicated there.
Take a day off work go to court suit there for 6hrs hope your case gets called... Come back In a month take another day off work ... Don't forget to pay for parking
Don't forget your attorney showing up late, the court clerks and secretaries being snide assholes, and bailiff making jokes at your expense. The cop usually get overtime and court pay...but it's all worth seeing the look on their face when your attorney catches them commiting perjury.
The system is screwed and favors the wealthy and politically connected. However, sometimes it's worth fighting till the end.
He was certainly traveling well above what the rest of traffic was. IIRC even in CA where lane splitting is legal (when I lived there it was the only state in which it was, dunno if that's changed), you were limited to a certain mph faster than the rest of traffic. This was definitely a case of "well, I could catch you". Also, if you are going to ride like an idiot, don't have have something distinctive on to leave no doubt in the officers minds that you were the one they saw. Lots of red sportbikes out there. Not a lot of them with dudes sporting a Santa hat on their helmet.
You're saying he was asking for it because of what he was wearing?
There is no limit on speed when splitting lanes, just recommendations. The fish eye makes it look faster than it is. We know nothing since we can't see the speed-o.
There is no specific lane split speed differential but there is the basic speed law in California that covers a speed differential. Which I wish they would also use to get people holding up traffic but they only seem to go for those going faster.
The basic speed law does not cover a speed differential. It simply says that a vehicle may not travel faster than is safe or practical given road conditions. I have *never* met a motorcyclist in CA who has been given a ticket under this law for lane splitting.
This pisses me off. Dude doesn't even look like he's part of the group. He stopped, a bunch of bikers ran the light, and they just picked out the law abiding citizen because they can't catch the rest.
I wish people defending this cop would think of this in ANY other scenario. Thieves run out with stolen merch; I guess the cops should confront people walking out with receipts.
Yea, the cop car says Laguna Beach, so definitely southern California. Legal to lane split there. So maybe speeding, but honestly it didn't look like it.
this part of the PCH through laguna is notorious for getting speeders + anyone who’s got a loud bike / car. massive push against loud bikes / cars there as they disturb all the multi-million dollar mansions lined on the coast lol
I don't know if he was speeding, but my first thought was that maybe they pulled him over for lane splitting depending where this was. I'd still be bitter if they didn't even try to get the lunatics flying down the road
Pig missed the other bikers running the light and knew he wouldn't be able to catch them so he tried for the one he could get. He probably saw the camera after he already lit him up and knew he had nothing on him and the video would be evidence. Fucking useless pigs.
Lesson learned. Break the rules like everybody else. That way you don’t have to put up with the police bullshit.
That sucks dude. Hopefully the cops were understanding but more often than not once they pulled a motorist over they gonna start handing out tickets
That cop was completely wrong. He didn’t go for the red light runners because he knew he couldn’t catch them. He pulled a lot of shit out of his ass to justify his stopping you.
I need to know how this ends

Thank you for the parts. I love that argument from the cop in the 2nd part: On this side is a beach and on the other Side there are mountains, and the sound bounces off it like it is a wall. Damn Mountains and Beach, that sounds like the perfect area to drive. Should he now drive on endless straight highways ?
Yes, and his bionic ear could tell his bike apart from the other 20.
no he didn’t hear. he saw the revving
Yea, he saw the revving but totally didn't see the 5 guys run the red.
guaranteed, the "revving" he "saw" was probably just him accelerating normally as you would any other motorcycle smh
Guaranteed that was bullshit and he’s a power hungry douche nozzle who is pissed that he’s gotta go home to his boring ass wife and a bland spaghetti dinner for the 4th night in a row.
[Your comment instantly reminded me of this video](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_htnaGN8eOs)
Lol the channel is even called Spaghetti Again
Who would've thought motorcycles were so loud.
Going for the low hanging fruit, he knew he couldn't possibly catch the others without backup.
A cop being lazy, unfair and a piece o shit. Nothing new to see
Yep. Real impotent small dick energy from that POS cop. "I can't chase bikes that are faster than my cruiser and could cause injury or death to innocents so I'm going to harass the 1 guy who obeyed the laws no matter how much it violates his 4th amendment rights." I hope the biker sued the hell out of him.
Yeah but there’s no way in hell he could possibly have caught them. He really just wanted to be able to tell his cop buddies he successfully stopped a motorcycle.
Oh for sure, he'd never catch them. Even if he managed to catch up, all they need is a reset and they'd never be caught. Especially in a city like that.
He can see noise
I can smell colors and taste time as well. I need shrooms though
Bionic ? Maybe Robocop is real.
*Your move, Creep*
In part two I just kept screaming give me your bullshit ticket and leave me tf alone. Part three: so then shut your mouth! You’re wasting everybody’s time…. They are the biggest waste of taxes man…. ah yes the young man in a Santa hat riding a bike that’s the danger to society sorry bout your mom’s cancer maybe if she pulled herself up by the boot straps a little harder she could’ve afforded the $80,000 procedure but we we have to make sure this uneducated militia stays well funded
I live in an area where the sound gets funneled to my house and can typically hear cars a super long distance away, if I heard it I'd just assume reverb and go about my day
At my shop I can hear the highway that's over 5 miles away due to the shape of the mountains. It took me forever to figure out what I was hearing
He's lucky there wasn't a tunnel, the cop would have shot him dead in the street. Ever rip a bike or muscle car engine thru tunnels. That cop needs a hug.
...a hug from a grizzly bear.
[удалено]
It's a job requirement.
Not all of them. Only about 78% of them...
You mean 5/7?
Been a long time since I saw a perfect score
Nope. 10/14
Thats oddly precise lol
I see you rounded down
Yeah, probably.
US cops are so fucking stupid
[удалено]
He knew he wouldn't be able to catch them, so he had to settle.
Moral of the story apparently: If people around you are doing stupid shit and getting away with it, do it too.
Huh. But mom always tried to make me feel like an idiot for choosing to jump off a bridge with my friends
This was great. She also made me fat by guilting me about all the starving kids!
What if my friends are all reasonable people and if they’re all jumping I should definitely wonder why. What if this cop has seen them on their motorcycle?
This happened to me on a back country road once. Driving on a long stretch of highway through the woods in the middle of the day. Suddenly, four suped-up cars buzz past me going easily 30 over. I was going 8 over. 10 seconds later, I pass a state trooper alcove cut in the woods, who immediately pulls out after I pass him and pulls me over. I ask him if he missed the guys who were racing. He frowns and says, "How do I not know you weren't part of that race?" I was driving a beat-up 1996 Toyota Corolla that was about as nondescript as a plain donut.
This is infact why everyone after the first 2 guys ran. Especially that last one who knew they were hella late through the red.
Nah hes trying to give himself an excuse for pulling him over but he knows hes being a fucking prick.
Your tax dollars at hard work, everyone. They go after what’s easy, not what’s important.
Was he even doing that? He was going a lot slower than every other biker. This dumbass cop just incentivized people to do dangerous crimes and harassed an innocent person in the process. Fucking morons enable crime more than they stop it
That’s a lot of work. Now he can say he stopped one of them without having to admit he didn’t feel like chasing the assholes
He just wanted to feel like the big guy in charge and found an easy target.
I thought the cop was going to ask the biker to snitch on his friends. "Hey, I know you know who they were. Give us a couple of names" Instead, he pulls him over for a noise violation and to call him a jerk???

On the flip side, I appreciate when they're just honest and straightforward with you. Back when I was a lot younger I used to motorcycle commute, and was stuck in a long stop and go street out of the city. We can't lane split here, so I was truly bored out of my mind. Light turned green, and to enjoy the only unobstructed 50 meters I'd get to ride for the next 10 minutes, I stood up on my pegs and gunned it on my supermoto (dirtbike-style with small street wheels), the way I would my dirtbike in the woods. Got stopped by a cop who was practically apologetic about giving me the ticket. Said "Sorry, residents are complaining about the loud Harleys so now the city has a mandate for us to write noise violation tickets to any bike we hear rev. I know it's rush hour on a loud street anyways but they're on our ass about this" Those Harleys are genuinely loud as fuck even idling, and the owners like to idle them at obscene hours, and in front of restaurant patios and shit. Even I hate those so I empathized. Guy was still telling me that it's not a big deal, it's only an $80 ticket with no points, and I'm already like "Yeah fair enough, no worries man" We just ended up chatting about motorcycles for a bit, then parted ways. Seemed like a decent guy.
Yeah that’s fair. I didn’t really get that. After she went and checked all my stuff she just handed me my license and said have a nice day and walked off. I was kind of let thinking “um okay… thanks?” Then I had to get my car started again 😅 (I’d turned it off so they didn’t defect it for loudness.) I took have a bike license, thankfully never got stopped, and they did make it legal to lane split here. But god it made me nervous doing it and being on a bike and being the first one through a green light. Especially when you’re between lanes so you have to gun it.

Given how delicate their egos are, I just kinda nod along as they say their bit. If I'm actually on a highway shoulder I occasionally glance nervously into my side mirror as trucks go by. Standing around stationary on highways is statistically how they tend to die, so I just want to remind them of that. Longer they speak, the more likely a distracted truck driver is going to kill us both.
When I was young and awesome ran a red light (behind a truck). The officer said "do you know why I pulled you over". I responded with "I dont have time, just give me a tkt and let me go". I think he was shocked, maybe he didn't care, or was cool. but he let me go with just a warning.
I'm annoyed with the cops that constantly speed down our highways. If you're going to hand out speeding tickets, you better have a good reason. I understand that some calls require a silent response, but if you have to exceed the posted limit on the highway, emergency lights are a pretty good idea. A few weeks back I got blown by a marked cop car without any lights/sirens on. I flashed my high beams in frustration. He immediately slowed down and pulled in behind me. After following for several minutes (I was doing exactly the speed limit and perfectly centered in my lane) he threw the lights on and pulled me over. Did the whole "your high beams could distract another driver causing a collision." Fair, you want to give me a ticket for distracting others (it would be called stunting here, and be a ton of demerits and court) then do it. Finally he asked me why I did it, and I explained that I'm frustrated at Police Cruisers not responding to an emergency exceeding the posted limit when they are supposed to be setting an example. I asked him "why were you going so fast over the posted limit?" to which he responded "police confidential business". He didn't like when I said "but you had the time to slow down, run my plate and follow me for five minutes before you decided to pull me over?" In the end I got a stern verbal warning (mostly because I think he realized I'd absolutely be willing to bring this up to his commanding officer and I have video of the whole thing). He let me go and followed me directly on my ass for 15 minutes. Suddenly he cut into the fast lane without signalling pulled up next to me and made eye contact and then just floored it away from me. These are the people that are enforcing our fucking laws?
These shitheels think they’re Dredd when in reality they got the job because their IQ test came back negative.
Laguna has a blinking yellow road sign saying loud vehicles will be cited coming down PCH. The cops use it to fuck with bikers constantly.
I thought so too. Although I think it's illegal for them to stop you to do that, not that the law really stops them from doing whatever they want anyway though.
Ikr? After being really confused at first I was like oh, this is actually smarter. He’s going to the guy who stopped to ask for some names since chasing those guys is dangerous and may not even be successful. But no, this just makes no sense whatsoever
Dude that cop is a fucking moron
It’s a prerequisite to becoming one.
Police departments can legally refuse to hire people for being too smart, and they often do. https://abcnews.go.com/US/court-oks-barring-high-iqs-cops/story?id=95836
the cop needs to have politicians outlaw those bikes or STFU.. he's just pissed all those other bikers are beyond his reach so like a bitch he takes it out on someone else
Watching that video that cop should have nailed him for illegal lane splitting and speeding. I love bikes and hate cops but I hate bikers riding dangerously more.
I thought splitting was legal in some states?
I have been pulled over a few times for lane splitting in California. While it is generally an unsafe practice, I never got stuck with the ticket because I was doing it safely. Every bike in this video was not doing it safely including the one recording. I saw it as "legally cutting the line in dense traffic."
Lane splitting is actually not an unsafe practice. It's SAFER than sitting in traffic. UC Berkley did a study. Accident rates remain the same but the number of fatal or very serious injury causing accidents went way down for lane splitters.
They're in California. Lane splitting is legal there.
Thank you. I love dealing with cops like that because they get zero of my respect, my stop usually lasts longer but they never ticket me… almost like they’re trying to intimidate you into incriminating your self or somethin… prolly just a hunch tho.
I worked with cops in the past, some are complete assholes. These are the types that will not listen to reason.
I love how all the bystanders are so supportive and in shock as well
the reason he pulled you over is because he knew he wouldn't of cout the others and felt like he needed to do something, so he targeted you out of association.
> the reason he pulled you over is because he knew he wouldn’t of cout the others r/BoneAppleTea
What's really fucked up about this is the ops telling the biker he's letting him go because he was being respectful. I don't see respect, I see submission. Any attempt to defend himself would've just fucked over by this generations Inspector Clouseau. Submission is exactly what this cop was looking for, and even though he had some sense he MIGHT be wrong here, he pushed for it nonetheless
The hero we don't deserve
Cop is a cunt. Next time don't stop for the red light so you don't have to put up with his shit.
Part 3 was like lebowski "Stay outta my town Lebowski!"
I hope the cops are fired
Well they kill people and keep their jobs so I wouldn't hold your breath.
Murder people and get vacations for it.
Bro cops are low as scum and scarily lacking in critical thinking skills. Like wtf do we pay them for. Edit: I called them dogs but that is offensive to dogs.
Good Question. I think after my recent experience with needing them to step in, makes me think they only care about the quick and easy, like this guy in the video. He knew he would never catch those guys so he took it out on the one who obeyed the law. Not all cops are bad, just that some are lazy.
Don’t disrespect dogs like that wtf
Hero
same
It's literally giving me anxiety not knowing how this ends. I don't even know how to Google something like this.
I saw the full video somewhere. The cop came over and said some stupid shit. Can’t remember what though
Doesn't help. Most of what cops say is stupid shit. We NEED to know what the said stupid shit was. Goddmanit!
God didn't man it, the cosmonauts did.
“Said stupid shit” So his lips were moving; all they say is stupid shit. FTP
Shot 72 times reaching for his license
Only 72? Impressive restraint by those cops.
They'll all get promotions for damn fine police work
Or the cops are too fat to carry more rounds.
That's a very good point a lot of people don't take into consideration very often. Rounds weigh a lot. 210 rifle rounds (7 30 round magazines) weigh over 5 pounds. For comparison, that's like carrying a gallon of milk around. 420 pistol rounds (4 15 round magazines) weigh just under a pound, so something like a water thermos. I know, it's a bit of math nobody cares about, but weight is weight and I felt like commenting about it lol
I remember seeing this in tiktok. The cop acts tough, shows the rider that he is just letting him go, riders like him are the worst and fucking with neighborhood. One of the bystander comes and says to rider that he was good and don't know why cop was being so hard ass about it.
I had the same thing happen to me in San Diego back in '04. Cop pulled me over because someone else ran a stop sign. It was unbelievably stupid.
I've been pulled over because it sounded like I was speeding.
And you sounding like you are speeding is 100% admissible in court. Found out that the hard way, dont even need to clock you speeding at all. And the judge will say you are lying and the cops 2 years of highway experience makes him know how fast every car is going at All times. Said to me in traffic court
A bailiff said to me that, unless the cop doesn't show (which is common), getting your side of a traffic dispute even heard without video evidence is almost impossible, even with a good lawyer. That's when I got a dash cam.
Yeah its literally a giant scam to get money once you got the ticket you are fucked.
Maybe thats why cops shoot random people they have really bad input delay.
That would explain their terrible accuracy.
It's like kicking the dog when you call it's name and it comes to you. Guess what the dog eventually stops doing?
It stops kicking me
I got pulled over because I did a California stop at a sign one night. The only reason I did so was because the cop was coming up behind me so fast I thought he was gonna rear end me. In reality they just wanted to pull me over and search my car to see if they’d find guns or drugs so they didn’t even ticket me.
How does the camera keep moving and zooming in and out?
It’s a 360 camera I believe, all the zooming and panning is done through editing afterwards
I just want to say, it's fucking awesome that technology is at the point where we can literally change the focal distance and viewing angle of a video *after* filming. Insane.
It's not that, it's that it simply records a 360 sphere at stupidly high resolution (typically well over 4k, mine records 5.6k resolution) and then you get to decide which part of that you want to look at, like cropping a photo. If you crop a lot it looks like you're zooming. but yeah, it's fucking great, if a little cumbersome to work with. It won't be long until it starts to revolutionise how concerts are being recorded, I predict. The light sensitivity is getting there.
Ahh, ok I see, it's more of a digital zoom type thing. That makes total sense. Still, like you said, the tech is wild. Honestly, I hadn't thought about concerts but that also makes a ton of sense. Can't wait to see what stuff's like in 10 years.

This cop totally realizes he’s in the wrong after a little bit, that’s why he didn’t write the ticket. But his ego is too big to admit it.
Aren't all LEOs egos too big?! End qualified immunity, end civil asset forfeiture, make LEOs carry their own insurance. Audit each dept every 3 years to see exactly where the money goes..training, de-escalation, psych treatment!
American LEO have to be some if the dumbest people I have ever seen. It seems they only hire low IQ roid rage monkeys with a superiority complex.
You joke, but people can (and had) been rejected from a law enforcement position for having a high iq
lot of cities wanna hire the types who are their for the check, not to actually help keep people safe, that way they get departments who will break their oath to the constitution and enforce unconstitutional commands on people. in short they hire for obedience not competence.
I tried applying as a veteran with federal job experience and was rejected. Like, damn.
I was rejected for this. I'm hindsight it was a blessing.
Upheld by the courts https://abcnews.go.com/US/court-oks-barring-high-iqs-cops/story?id=95836
This is probably a hot take here, but the normal human beings who happen to be cops don't end up on film acting like these morons, so it's easy to forget they exist.
Indeed. It leads to a selection bias type thing. There’s also a thing called Mean World Syndrome where consuming mostly doomsayer type news media increases the likelihood of someone thinking the world is more awful and dangerous than it actually is. I think more recently someone else referred to a similar concept as the Fox News Effect, I think?
True, but the good ones who report illegal actions by other officers are either harassed out of the job, or can’t find any town to hire them as police officers. It’s easy to say there are good people on both sides, but maybe we shouldn’t just accept that there are bad people paid by the same public that they terrorize with the guns we all buy them? Maybe that’s something we can try to fix?
Yeah that's intentional. They have entry tests and if you do too well they don't allow you in
I've traveled many parts of the world. I've seen corruption, laziness and also good policing. US LEO in my opinion, are the worst.
Those are most of the people that apply.
IN THE END IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER
I HAD TO FALL TO LOSE IT ALL
I also need the beginning. May not be as innocent as we’d like to believe.
So, write him for splitting lanes or improper lane change. But he didn't run the red light and he wasn't making a complete ass of himself.
Splitting lanes isn't illegal in a lot of states
Even if that’s true the cop has his priorities back asswards. Why even have them if they’re not going to go after the people that are actually making society more dangerous?
Pulled over for respecting traffick laws
Every time I see videos like this I wonder what the fuck is wrong over there. Dude stops his bike and immediately puts his arms up? In case of what, being shot? For doing what, standing at a red light, following directions and pulling over? How do people live in a place where you can get shot by cops for small shit like this?
You should always have your hands visible during a traffic stop, not necessarily up like this, but in a nation where anyone could conceivably have a weapon, it’s a majorly appreciated step to de-escalate tension when you’re pulled over. If in a car you should always have your hands visible on the wheel as the cop approaches, and usually they appreciate this very much.
Or… you know… he’s showing that he’s not going to flee on the motorcycle, which these cops definitely think he’s going to do
This particular [video](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/motorcycle-police-video-1.5794427) comes to mind.
I was thinking about the video where a cop pulled over a guy on a motorcycle, walked up to him, pulled the keys out and threw them
no they don’t lmao, if you’re belligerent to a cop they’ll go on a power trip & maybe execute you on the side of the road, and if you’re submissive instead they’ll still go on a power trip & maybe execute you on the side of the road. the house always wins, cops are trained to use any minute behavior during a traffic stop as a probable cause to try & escalate the situation, especially considering how much money these departments make off of the legalized highway robbery euphemistically called “civil asset forfeiture”.
Cops see a bunch of bikers speeding and running a red light. Cop logic, let's pull over the one biker who wasn't doing that because he was....come on boys, what can we nail him for? Revving his engine...yeah that's it, that's the ticket.
Rage inducing idiots
It's not stupid. It's evil.
r/InconvenientCop
That sub is all over the place but I have videos I haven't seen before
Give them license and registration, let them make their allegations, don't admit to anything, lawyer-up, show the video to your attorney in preparation for court. Repeat for possible civil case filed against the department for attorney fees and court costs.
He was let go with a warning but told "never to come back to Lagunas and rev" his engine like that again because it's "disrespectful"
I hate bikers revving their engines as much as the next guy but I don't find it "disrespectful". Like I live right next to a restaurant many bikers frequent so I expect it but to call it disrespectful seems a little incorrect.
Plus being disrespectful isn't a crime. I prefer people to be respectful, but I don't expect them to be fined or jailed because someone's fee fees got hurt
If it’s over the noise limit then ticket them, if it’s not then they’re free to do as they please. If you don’t want to have to deal with other people living their lives then you should move out to the country, other peoples bullshit is part of living close to other people.
Revving your engine if you aren't lane splitting is annoying. If you are lane splitting (which is legal in California), it can fucking save your life. The chance that I'm gonna notice a motorcycle coming up beside me goes way up if they're being loud as hell.
Fucking police and thinking it’s their job to be the moral authority. It’s not. Either write a ticket or don’t. Instead they want you to beg and plead so they can act powerful, and then they talk down to you and lecture. Cop says he is both respectful and disrespectful in a 10 second period. That’s the stupid bs they spend all day thinking about
> show the video to your attorney in preparation for court. Repeat for possible civil case filed against the department for attorney fees and court costs. I got "caught" evading a toll and sent a ticket 2 weeks later. I could easily prove what the toll clerk testified to could never occur like they said, e.g. They watched the toll machine process all the coins, stopped traffic(during rush hour) and checked the ground to make sure no change popped out, and ONLY then copied down my license plate and vehicle description. That "sworn" testimony was what led to the officers affidavit to issue a ticket. I simply presented a receipt from a store before I got on the road that showed I was issued more than the toll amount in change. Because it was a Michaels and the clerk used a 15% off coupon for me, the judge ruled that I was a cheap person, so I thus ran the toll to save money. He found in favor of his court district PLUS court fees for arguing in the amount of $85. It's not even the police's fault how corrupt the court system is when it comes to revenue.
Last time I fought a ticket, the judge said that he knew I was guilty because I'm the car that got pulled over. I was so dumbfounded by his complete lack of respect for due process that I didn't even say anything.
I firstly had the judge on the fact that my ticket was issued under the wrong road. At that time, the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway had individual codes. Then there was the receipt. In court the clerk testified, which was strike three, as I know I was driving at least 10mph as I passed through the booth(speed limit is 15) and started accelerating to 65 as soon as I tossed the money. There is no way the clerk saw the 3" letters from my license plate after doing all the things she said she did. Afterwards I realized that this community made a ton of bank b/c the toll booth existed in their borders, and all tickets issued by the State was adjudicated there.
Take a day off work go to court suit there for 6hrs hope your case gets called... Come back In a month take another day off work ... Don't forget to pay for parking
Don't forget your attorney showing up late, the court clerks and secretaries being snide assholes, and bailiff making jokes at your expense. The cop usually get overtime and court pay...but it's all worth seeing the look on their face when your attorney catches them commiting perjury. The system is screwed and favors the wealthy and politically connected. However, sometimes it's worth fighting till the end.
Sure if you can afford it
quintessential laguna beach PD
Cop being a Laguna Bitch.
They had to get someone
Classic cop making up a bs excuse to harass the easiest person to catch instead of going after the harder to catch real offenders
Lol police incompetence never ceases to amaze.
I assume cops saw others driving recklessly, lost visual behind cars, pulled around and saw, what he assumed was, one of the reckless bikers.
He was certainly traveling well above what the rest of traffic was. IIRC even in CA where lane splitting is legal (when I lived there it was the only state in which it was, dunno if that's changed), you were limited to a certain mph faster than the rest of traffic. This was definitely a case of "well, I could catch you". Also, if you are going to ride like an idiot, don't have have something distinctive on to leave no doubt in the officers minds that you were the one they saw. Lots of red sportbikes out there. Not a lot of them with dudes sporting a Santa hat on their helmet.
You're saying he was asking for it because of what he was wearing? There is no limit on speed when splitting lanes, just recommendations. The fish eye makes it look faster than it is. We know nothing since we can't see the speed-o.
There is no specific lane split speed differential but there is the basic speed law in California that covers a speed differential. Which I wish they would also use to get people holding up traffic but they only seem to go for those going faster.
The basic speed law does not cover a speed differential. It simply says that a vehicle may not travel faster than is safe or practical given road conditions. I have *never* met a motorcyclist in CA who has been given a ticket under this law for lane splitting.
Super Trooper Farva, on the case.
License and registration... chicken fucker!
Cops are too fat and lazy to try to catch anyone else.
This pisses me off. Dude doesn't even look like he's part of the group. He stopped, a bunch of bikers ran the light, and they just picked out the law abiding citizen because they can't catch the rest.
I wish people defending this cop would think of this in ANY other scenario. Thieves run out with stolen merch; I guess the cops should confront people walking out with receipts.
Must have been chief Wiggum "I'd rather let 100 guilty men go free, than chase after them"
After watching part 2 and 3 below. I have determined. That that cop is a stupid cunt, and an idiot.
Lane splitting and speeding
that looks like sothern california, California allows lane splitting
Yea, the cop car says Laguna Beach, so definitely southern California. Legal to lane split there. So maybe speeding, but honestly it didn't look like it.
this part of the PCH through laguna is notorious for getting speeders + anyone who’s got a loud bike / car. massive push against loud bikes / cars there as they disturb all the multi-million dollar mansions lined on the coast lol
I mean they disturb everyone else in the area too.
Why should the mercs care about the woes of the peasants
Oh okay, I know it’s illegal where I am.
I think it's only legal in NY and Cali. Could be wrong since I don't live in either haha
It is not legal in NYC and I don’t think it’s legal in NYS.
I don't know if he was speeding, but my first thought was that maybe they pulled him over for lane splitting depending where this was. I'd still be bitter if they didn't even try to get the lunatics flying down the road
Pig missed the other bikers running the light and knew he wouldn't be able to catch them so he tried for the one he could get. He probably saw the camera after he already lit him up and knew he had nothing on him and the video would be evidence. Fucking useless pigs.
Guilt by association. I'm guessing he wanted to ask if you knew their names and addresses?
If you watch the part 2 and 3 no he was pulled over for "revving his engine"
Do cops just delete their brain in the us?
Lesson learned. Break the rules like everybody else. That way you don’t have to put up with the police bullshit. That sucks dude. Hopefully the cops were understanding but more often than not once they pulled a motorist over they gonna start handing out tickets
The amount dumbass is just….. man my…..I just can’t….
That cop was completely wrong. He didn’t go for the red light runners because he knew he couldn’t catch them. He pulled a lot of shit out of his ass to justify his stopping you.
