Say that one more time. >> Yeah. You didn't use your blinker. >> Okay. And I purposely I purposely used it because I know that you're going to >> And you also can't have this. >> And I can't have a tiny treat obstructing my view. >> In New Jersey, a Wall Township police officer has pulled over this man, Alex Harbor. >> Can you get your supervisor here, please? >> He doesn't have to be here. >> Can you please get your supervisor here? >> Can you get the registration proof of insurance? >> Yes, I can. Can you please call your supervisor here? >> So, let's get the proof of insurance. Can you please call your supervisor here? >> I don't have to call my supervisor. >> It is actually police department policy that if a person being detained or arrested requests a supervisor, a supervisor must come to the scene. >> Cuz I knew that you were going to follow me on this street. And as soon as I turned on the street, that's when you put your lights on. >> You knew I was going to follow you on this street? >> Yes, I knew you was because you were following me for a while. >> Like I said, there's a school up there that I have to go check, which is why I came down this road. >> Can you please call your supervisor? >> All right. You give me the documents. I'll get my I'll ask my supervisor if he wants to come out. All right. >> If he wants to come out, can you please call your supervisor? I will get you my documents. >> Okay. >> Mr. Harbor provided the documents as requested and recorded himself while waiting for the police supervisor to arrive. >> And the reason he pulled me over is because I just made a I just made a turn that he says I didn't use my blinker when I purposefully used my blinker. He just didn't see it because he was trying to run every single thing that he could about this car. Get the out of here. >> Mr. Harbor's videos of this incident were first posted on the YouTube channel Come Make We Laugh. The interaction is a classic example of unlawful racial profiling. >> My name is Patrolman Kevin, fact number 197. Pulling somebody over because of their skin color or ethnicity is illegal. So some police will just make up an excuse like failure to signal even though Mr. Harbor could prove he did signal. >> I purposely put on the blinker and turned because I knew you were going to follow me. I knew you were. >> Right. We deal with this every day. >> Wasn't doing nothing wrong. Did exactly the same. >> All right. Let me go check this out. I'll be right back. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's been following me since I turned out of Shopright. >> Hey, how's it going? >> I'm all right. How are you? >> Good. You want to speak with a supervisor? >> Yes, sir. Um, I asked to speak with you because I feel that there is no reason for this uh pullover. It's unlawful. He didn't tell me what he pulled me over for when he first stopped me. And he said that he has a school to go to. That's why he's been following me this way. And then I just made a turn, put on my blanket purposefully because I know that he was going to follow me around this corner and he follows me, pulls me over, and I asked him to call you out here. >> Okay. >> Did he tell you the reason for the stop? >> Yeah. Did Did he explain to you as well or no? >> Uh he said that exactly. And I just put the blinker on because I knew that he was going to follow me around here. But what did he start following me for? Cuz he started following me for uh back there at Shopright. >> Okay. So, what did he start following me for? >> I don't understand what you're saying. >> I'm saying that >> he's allowed to drive on this on the side of the road. >> Oh, you're right. But he said that he had a school to go to, >> right? >> What school is that? >> That's not your concern. But we do have school. >> No, it's not my concern. [laughter] All right. So, what's the point of it? What? Like, this really is no point for the turnover because I put on my blanket purposefully because I knew that he was going to follow me around here. The police supervisor tries to claim Mr. Harbor was not being profiled and that the officer was headed to a school. >> So listen, when we have we have school traffic we have to get to. So officers wherever they're at, that's where they start heading to. There's schools in the area that he was probably getting to, which makes sense from the rap >> that he was taking. >> I mean, not really because I saw him pass me and I know that he turned around and started following me. >> All right. Listen, if you said you didn't have your blinker on, that's what he saw. I wasn't on I wasn't the one that observed it. So that's all. >> All right. But you you can check his dash cam though, right? >> I can't check it right now. >> All right. >> Everything's rolling right now. When he goes back to the airport, it can be uploaded. >> Okay. >> So, whatever the outcome of that of the stop is, if you want I don't know if he's giving you a ticket or not, but if there's a ticket, there's obviously going to be a dash cam that that's going to be showing that there was a blinker that was uh being utilized for that. Okay. >> Everything every uh every traffic stop that we do is audio and visual recorded from our body cams and through the cars. Okay. So, there's going to be So, whenever you hit that blinker and those lights went on, there's going to there's going to be proof of whatever uh whatever that violation is of what he was saying. >> Okay. >> All right. All right. >> Um so, >> um >> I just didn't feel comfortable talking to him because I felt like he was lying a lot. >> Okay. I mean, hopefully I was able to clear that up a little bit with you. >> Yeah. I mean, he cleared it up a little bit, but I still feel like there's no reason for the pullover >> and it's very it's unlawful. How you doing? Good. >> The pullover was very unlawful, >> but Where do we go from here? That's what I want to know. >> So, here's where we go from here. You think you hit the blinker? >> Another one. >> You think you hit the blinker? Maybe your bulb count cuz I didn't see a blinker. >> Okay. >> All right. >> All right. >> Now, moving violations. Do you know those carrier points? I don't want to do that. We're not going to We're not going to do that. I'm going to just give you a ticket for that. That's it. Pay it online. You're done. >> Uh, this is the supervisor, right? >> That is the supervisor. Yeah. >> Obstruction. I mean, how many people do you see have that in their car? How is that obstruction of view when I can clearly see through here? This is a little tree that I never look at. So, how do how is that obstructing my view? >> New Jersey statute 39374 refers to stickers, posters, lights, and certificates on the front windshield other than certificates required by regulation and law and says no person shall drive any vehicle so constructed, equipped, or loaded as to unduly interfere with the driver's vision to the front and to the sides. Legal experts agree the law is unclear and technically the air freshener was on the rearview mirror, not the windshield. Also, the law says the driver's vision should not be unduly obstructed, which means excessively obstructed. The air freshener was not excessively obstructing anything. In other words, this is a poorly written law that the officers are trying to take advantage of. 39 >> 374. It's a window obstruction. You can you can get a citation for that. >> Okay. But can you explain that a little bit more to me >> about >> how that how is that obstruction? You just told me that that's part of the whatever code or whatever. How the how is that obstructing >> blocking the >> supervisor? How is that obstru how is that obstructing? >> How is it obstructing? >> Yes. How is that obstructing my view? How is that hindering my view? How is that doing anything to my view of the road? >> Okay. Well, it's blocking. It's between you and the window. That's why. All right. >> So, I don't What else would you like me to help you out with? >> I was I'm asking you because everything that he says is like not clear to me, you know? He just I feel like he's just saying whatever he remembers and I didn't know that that would be considered obstructing because I've seen so many people ride with that in their window to make their car smell good. So, I don't >> So many people speed. Does that make it right? >> Um, no, not really. But >> All right. So, same thing. Case in point, >> it's not the same point because that has nothing to do with my driving. It has nothing to do with how I see the road. It has nothing to do >> as a driver. >> All right. I I understand that that's part of the code. That's why I was asking for more information about it. >> Gotcha. So, here's your stuff. >> All right. Thank you. >> Have a good day and drive safe. >> Does anybody else want to help you with or >> No, that's it. Thank you. >> All right. No problem. Just make sure it's almost out. Get that out inspected in the next couple weeks. All right. Have a good one, man. >> Yep. Even though the police let Mr. Harbor go with no citation, the supervisor put in a verbal jab at the end about getting the inspection renewed soon. It was a not so subtle way of saying, "Yeah, you need to stay in your place. We are above you." What jerks. Kudos to Alex Harbor for his calm and polite reactions throughout this ridiculous stop. He kept his cool even though there was never any legal reason for the officers to pull him over in the first place. The officer passed Mr. Harbor turned around and then stopped the driver unlawfully and then to try and find a reason for actually stopping the driver. Mr. Harbor, the cop pointed to an air freshener. It should be obvious that the air above a few police officers in Wall Township, New Jersey, absolutely stinks. Thankfully, this interaction did not include any police violence to go along with the racism. Still, this New Jersey incident is another reminder to always film the police. It's your right. And remember, unlike some cops, a camera never lies. By the way, in Delaware, some ignorant state troopers are now being sued for trampling on a man's constitutional first amendment rights. >> The side of the road, legally parked with a sign, which is protected by the First Amendment. >> The state troopers are angry at him because his sign warns drivers about a speed trap ahead. >> Don't put your hands on me. Do not give me my property back. >> Check out that video at the link below. I'm David Schustster. Thanks for joining us.
