I might've missed it but did the officer ask the driver to step out of the vehicle and he refused? I know he refused to produce id. But did he refuse to open the door and get out too?
If that never happened then it's the only hangup in what was otherwise a good arrest. |

yup, rol through a stop and then play "who is the bigger dickhead" with the cop, and this is what happens....... With that said, the cop was also out of line.... a simple "I observed you roll through a stop sign, and need your license to issue a citation" would have put him in the right, but he decides to go full cartman..... I hope that Sgt and Cpl got a tune up also, as they backed up a dick move, instead of deescalating & finding a peaceful solution. I aint got no time for assholes, but I got even less time for cops who abuse their authority..... View Quote It might be a huge headache for a pissant violation, but it is not an abuse of authority, and if everyone in this country refused to put up with fuck fuck games like that cop did our society wouldn't be so full of pussies who sit around thinking about how things could be 'deescalated.' |

My armchair quarterbacking is that cops cannot demand ID from people for shits and giggles, but if you are suspected of a crime, like running a stoplight, then they can demand it.
Also, and this probably makes me a police bootlicker, but I get some kind of satisfaction from watching idiots getting dragged out of their car and cuffed while screaming about self-inflicted police "brutality". Also, I kind of wish they tossed that obnoxious woman on the ground for being uncooperative. |

View Quote Operating a vehicle on public roads and failing to produce ID, reg, and insurance when detained for a traffic violation is either a separate crime from the violation, or in some state's the violation itself is technically a crime so if you fail to produce ID they will take you to jail to identify you and let you go before a judge. |

agreed the officer could have de escalated this by just telling him why he was stopped. I would guess there was no valid reason. so officer friendly became not so friendly. I would probably aquit the defendant if I was on the jury as the officer went aggressive way too early in the stop. just fucking tell the guy when he still wont produce the documents cuff and stuff View Quote |

It is not an "abuse of authority" to lawfully require a traffic violator to produce their driver's license then not play fuck fuck games with them because they watched too many youtube sovereign citizen videos and mistakenly think they can put their own made up conditions on complying with the law.

You never have to identify yourself to the police. It is your 5th amendment right to remain silent. Operating a vehicle on public roads and failing to produce ID, reg, and insurance when detained for a traffic violation is either a separate crime from the violation, or in some state's the violation itself is technically a crime so if you fail to produce ID they will take you to jail to identify you and let you go before a judge.

Everyone knows you don't go full retard.
That said use of force starts with tactical verbal skills, not ripping the window out and yanking him out of the car. Maybe start with step out of the vehicle, you are under arrest. And tactical verbal skills is not saying the easy way or the hard way. If someone asked why I pulled them over, I would just tell them. Goes both ways. |

Letting the driver control the stop doesn't de-escalate things. Letting the driver play the "I am not cooperating until the officer answers my questions " game gives control to the driver.

Gotcha. Well in my experience, if they want to continue an argument after you politely told them that you would let them know everything as soon as they handed over their ID, they're most likely going to go around in circles and argue about other shit once you answer their questions. It's probably a safe bet that in this case, if the cop entertained the driver's reason request before handing his ID, the driver would have then started to complain about the reason and would refuse to hand over his ID anyway.

Is there a legal requirement on the police to de-escalate people who refuse to obey the law, or is there a legal requirement for people to obey the law in the first place and de-escalate their own unlawful behavior when confronted by the police? I'll give you a hint, the former doesn't exist except in the mind of the ACLU and some idiotic department policies. The latter has been the law of the land since longer than you've been alive. If you commit a traffic violation you don't get to put conditions on when you produce your documents. You stopped being in control of the interaction when you violated the law and got pulled over. The officer doesn't owe you an explanation before you produce the documents you are required to carry when operating a vehicle. The interaction can consist entirely of "Give me your license and registration" and "Here is your ticket for xxx." Explaining the reason for the stop is just the polite thing to do, not a legal requirement, and you most certainly do not get to play the "You have to tell me what I did" game.

If you drive on public roads you must have a drivers license and provide that information to police when requested, failure to do so is an arrestable offense. Failure to provide identification.
We have no legal obligation to inform a driver why they were stopped, it's a courtesy. He could of told the driver why he was stopped and then an argument could of happened if how he didn't violate whatever traffic code. Some cops conduct traffic stops the way the cop in the video do and some don't. |

Driver was an asshole and got just what he deserved. Just walking down the street minding your own business you do not have to produce your papers. When you are driving you do have to produce your drivers license and registration.
The law as far as I know doesn't say " you will produce drivers license and registration AFTER the officer informs you why you were stopped." The officer is probably sick and tired of listening to jail house and shit house lawyers trying to enforce THEIR version of the law on him. Driving a car? Give the officer your license and registration when asked or go to jail for identification. Real simple. |
