Pulled Over for Speeding, Grieving Man Stunned When Officer Drives Him 100 Miles to Be With Family

KFOR ^ | SEPTEMBER 27, 2016

[Secret Agent Man]

I wish we had more cops, and just regular everyone, like this officer.

Be kind to strangers as they just might be angels in disguise!!!

[Gamecock]

What? The cop didn't shoot him? </sarc>

This may not be popular, but I think this is a fine example of selective enforcement, which is the root of our problems. This is why laws should be blind or else everybody will find exceptions and laws would be meaningless. Enforce the law (outstanding warrants and speeding) or get rid of the laws. Put emotions aside, if you are enforcing laws, which is your job!

[RegulatorCountry]

There was no selective enforcement. The officer who drove him to Detroit was not the officer who pulled him over.

“Everybody knows how much I dislike Cops”

Ignorance on display. Bless this officer.

"Everybody knows how much I dislike Cops but...

Sad that he has to qualify his statement by reassuring us how rotten cops are, in general, before saying this one was good.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

He was not speeding. He was the passenger.

Trooper Davis ended up taking the driver into custody and having the car towed, which left Ross stranded in Ohio.

The police officer performed his job, and then helped an individual whose sister had just died. Sometimes, people do what's right. The letter kills, but the Spirit brings life.

[Boogieman]

Sister dies in a car crash, he decides to speed down the road in the middle of the night...

If this guy really cared about his family, especially his mother as he claims, he wouldn't be involved in activities that cause warrants to be issued. No mention of what the warrant(s) were for, but "petty" is what most criminals would consider any criminal warrant against them. Had he turned himself in when he knew there was a warrant for him, instead of ducking out of sight, he might not have been in the predicament he was in when stopped. And, it's very stupid to speed, no matter what the circumstances, especially in light of the fact that this guy knew he was a hot potato. Well, as we always said, they're not in jail or prison because they're smart.

I have no sympathy for criminals. Spent 25 years putting up with their whining in NY's prison system. Back when they didn't have easy access to make phone calls, they were allowed two calls a month. The calls were dialed by an officer. The cons would claim they loved their mothers, wives, girlfriends, etc. so much that they had to call them. I'd tell them if they'd cared so much about their loved ones, they'd have done everything possible to stay out of trouble to begin with. BS artists every one of them.

I think you missed the point of the story.

“...he decides to speed down the road in the middle of the night...”

He wasn’t the driver. He was the passenger.

[RitaOK]

Tears. God IS.

Thank you for dear photo.

[DesertRhino]

This ain’t the third Reich sparky. The cop did good and exactly what he should have. They aren’t here to be the MPs on a SAC base.

[mass55th]

"He wasn’t the driver. He was the passenger."

True, but the dummy driving had a warrant or warrants on him as well as the rider.
