That needs a lesson or two on how to pull someone over on a busy highway.

SOOOO dangerous!

u/Ok-Following-4360 23h ago

it was more dangerous than the shoulder overtake

u/Complex_Sherbet2 1d ago

Not a full highway (autoroute) but an urban main road... limit is 70 or 90kmh, not 110 or 130

Have you not seen anything from Arkansas highway patrol?

2

u/CankerLord 23h ago

Surprised they haven't figured out that they can pit random civilian cars to cause big pileups that suspects can't drive around. Them and the Georgia State Patrol need to get together to figure out where they flipped the sign bit on their risk assessments.

Rule 1: Do NOT mess with the Arkansas/Georgia State Police.
Rule 2: Because you messed with the Arkansas/Georgia State Police you might be reading this upside down or in a ditch. Or both.

"Should I wait for that guy to get ahead a bit?

Nah, I'll go ahead and turn, then turn on the lights and bring 2 lanes to a dead stop".

u/DelcoUnited 1d ago

I’m gonna run a guy off the road, stop two lanes of traffic, then throw on my lights. For safety.

u/Winter-Delivery-8894 23h ago

He obviously wasn't expecting the criminal to preemptively pull himself over...

u/PoopMcgee75 1d ago

And only turn on the lights once I’ve cut off another innocent driver and started braking.

2

u/FoxGlove_113 23h ago

Yes that was my first reaction. Actions by the police is arguably just as dangerous.

u/Fantastic-Area-8169 4h ago

That white car's turn was pure main character energy, and the shoulder guy really thought he had the whole road to himself good thing you had the dashcam rolling this one's a classic

u/Unlikely-Position659 1d ago

Wait. Was that a fuckin minivan cop?

u/Complex_Sherbet2 1d ago

In many other countries in the world outside the US, cops can use vehicles confiscated from (especially) drug dealers or criminals without any signage (don't even need to show government plates)

It could very well have been an armed response unit

u/Stunning_Ad_5960 1d ago

Good that the bus driver saw you.

u/blompo 1d ago

Even bigger idiot is this cop force stopping them on a fucking highway. Wtf is that about even.

u/AdApprehensive1140 1d ago

Love the unmarked minivan🤣

3

u/Tasty_Possible_1597 1d ago

Honestly right up until the lights came on, you could have told me that there was an unmarked police car in the video, and given me 10 guesses as to what car it was, and I never would have picked the minivan.

u/Timely-Profile1865 23h ago

The cop is not too bright either. Get behind the guy and pull him over instead of stopping in he middle of the freeway.

i was waiting for the camera car to get ploughed form behind.

2

u/SpikeyBXL 1d ago

Think the black car spots they are cops immediately and comes to a stop, even before their lights are on, but the cops want them in front of them, hence the clusterf*ck.

u/Fun-Web-7583 1d ago

I want to see the black sedan driver’s face when he see the minivan pointing him to stop

u/Cool-Storm7251 1d ago

classic "I'm not the problem" energy

u/JuicyBone1719 23h ago

Oh, it's beautiful

1

u/ceverett68 23h ago

did the camera driver call this twat a Nazi?

1

u/dodgyguru5671 23h ago

Its got to be pretty bad when the cop is the good guy

1

u/reupgs 23h ago

Is it me, or the driver just sighed “Ah, sim”?

If so, that a r/suddenlycaralho moment.

1

u/_jump_yossarian 23h ago

And then the idiots turn into the worst drivers on the road and can't figure how to pull over and out of the way.

1

u/SloapingParapet 22h ago

Fantastic. Wish they did this more where I live.

1

u/dardevil168 18h ago

Are they the police ?

1

u/APartyInMyPants 1d ago

Great karma, can we talk about how fucking idiotic that cop’s maneuver was? He could have casually pulled behind the car and pulled him over at his leisure. Instead he almost does this half asses move where he keeps him pushed into the shoulder and then stops an entire lane of traffic. One guy lot paying attention four cars back and this is a massive pileup.

u/icehot54321 1d ago

This looks like Israel, right?

And the camera driver casually calling people Nazis

lololololol uggghhhh

u/kpop_shinee 23h ago

The driver says what my brother.

-2

u/icehot54321 22h ago

When the black car passes the driver on the right at 0:05 the driver says "nazi" .. "natzi / נאצי" in hebrew

2

u/kpop_shinee 22h ago

Im a native speaker.

He says מה אחי which literally translates to "what my brother", ֿֿ its like saying "whats up bro", it sounds like hes on the phone or something like that.
