He didn’t “pull him over.” He passed him and flipped the bird. Notice how that doesn’t fit the definition of a traffic stop nor does it mean, “pulling him over.”
Have either of you ever been stopped by a cop? Did the cop speed past you and laugh after you stopped, or did he get out and ask for your license, registration, and insurance? Then did he discuss a motor vehicle infraction and give you a warning or a summons?
That’s what happens when you get pulled over. The guy in the ATF vehicle was an ass, but he did not violate anyone’s constitutional rights, nor did his conduct even approach the level of search and seizure, as well as quartering, that incited the American Revolution.
There are real violations to complain about. That guy makes us sound hysterical.
Of course it is a minor violation. That is noted in the article.
A minor violation is still a violation.
Whoever the driver was, he did it multiple times.
The attitude screams of arrogance and indifference, even hostility, to the rights of others.
Accepting the minor violations leads to the acceptance of major violations, rather like the “broken window theory” for law enforcement.
Are you suggesting that the incident should not be investigated, and if found to be as described, the driver should not be disciplined?
