“Before I started occasionally riding with a cop friend of mine, I might have been of the other opinion. But having seen how quickly things go from 0 to 60 it became quite apparent that cops have to make a snap judgment based on experience and training and situation at hand and take appropriate action.’
You refer to a moment in a prgression of time and activity. This situation should not have ever gotten to that moment had the cop behaved professionally and as I supposed trained.
That is like the Menendez brothers pleaded be orphans aftert they killed their parents.
I totally agree. And the driver shares responsibility. If he had simply acted like a mature adult the outcome would have been much different.
I think the driver is just some spoiled brat kid that's used to getting his way.
