Police Road Rage

[Common]

If we're lucky he might get a stern talking to.

I guess you're really lucky because he was forced to resign. :rollseyes

+1 They do the same thing where I'm at.

Tune's and 8" exhaust make the rednecks go craaazzzzzy :lol:

I like that he owned it but disagree with some that him losing his job is overkill.

Flip the script here and imagine the truck brake checks the cop and causes a hit and run.



Right.

All of those details are not relevant to the primary issue. The officer cut in front of the truck, slammed the brakes and caused contact. A little common sense would have saved the officer his job.

"The Sheriff's office stated that the damage to Culpepper's cruiser would not cost more than $100 to fix. Culpepper said that he hoped his department would pay to repair Walton's truck, thought the amount of damage is unknown."

your still looking at it too simply....if someone is passing correctly but the car being passed speeds up while the car is over taking its the passing guys fault for cutting him off?

 

[BADASS03SVT]

Then the cop should've pulled him or radio'd a SC cop to pull him for speeding because he definitely was if they were already going the speed limit. This cop could have seriously injured someone or worse when he's trusted to "protect and serve".

was he not attempting to slow down the "erratic" truck driver? bc speeding and passing in a "merge lane" I would consider erratic / out of the norm driving.

Right.

oh cmon...people do way worse and dont lose their jobs...OUI / DWI comes to mind. Ive seen cops get arrested and not lose their job. Everyones thinking here of a mistake is automatic job loss is disgusting. How many saying that are actually cops? All perfect people in here I guess.

His attempt to slow down the what you call erratic truck driver was to put others at risk. Had this break check had gone worse case scenario one of the vehicles would have lost control and killed someone. Vehicles are weapons when used like this cop did, and he's lucky he only got away with losing his job and not seriously injuring someone.

oh cmon...people do way worse and dont lose their jobs.

And that makes it okay?

I would have "pit-maneuvered" 'Ol Barney Fife there...

Preferrably into the wall...

So in your mind the cop wasn't holding up traffic and brake checked a guy because he was trying to corral an erratic driver?

ehh, would have to see his disciplinary file to make a proper decision. But it certainly wouldn't go unpunished. With that punishment being severe.

He did show very poor judgement. Not a good attribute for a LEO. If I lashed out every time someone tried to push my buttons I wouldn't expect to have a job either.

Was this the same deputy thinking he was a hard ass? :lol1: How dumb can you be?

Not to excuse deputy do wrong's actions, but the guy who got brake checked sounds like a waste to society and a failure at life who's mother should have swallowed:

Walton has a history of problems with law enforcement. A State Law Enforcement Division background check shows a string of incidents dating back to 1999 that include failing to stop for blue lights, giving false information, possession of a stolen vehicle, forgery and assault.

He was also classified an habitual traffic offender, records show.

Guy needs to stop making videos instigating LEO's and end himself.

With that said, I would hardly call the above road rage. This is real road rage:

Now here's the gem. At 5:28 the dispatcher asks if he'll go back. Are you kidding me? :lol1: What was the bitch thinking? "There is a guy trying to kill you. Please go back and see if he's alright." :dw: I hope she resigned as well after making such a laughable suggestion.

That was unprofessional!

I also thought the driver rear ended him LOL.

Usually a K9 officer had a really good or excellent record and has some time on the job. Not everyone would know that though

Shocking....not surprised at all.

If the speed limit is 60.....and he is going 60.....who is he holding up???
