If you If you If you go back to your camera, I could not get over cuz there's cars right there. Now, if I would have got over cut one cars out, then that's reckless driving. Police pulled over a truck driver simply for traveling in the left lane while maintaining and at times even exceeding the speed limit. But when the driver calmly questioned the legal basis for the stop and explained that he was not obstructing traffic, the officer repeatedly avoided addressing the practical realities of lane laws and operating a heavily loaded commercial truck. Instead of backing down, the driver continued recording exposing the flaws in the officer's reasoning and pointing out that the patrol lights appeared to be used merely to force him out of the lane. In the end, unable to prove any actual traffic violation, the officer was left issuing only a controversial warning before allowing the driver to leave. Now, I'mma let you know I'm recording you right now. That's fine. You got your license and registration? Yeah. Now, I'mma ask you a question. Why Why you uh Why you pulling me over?
