It's not illegal to sit out here if I'm not doing anything wrong. >> Okay. Are you a lawyer? >> I can get one. >> I'm not trying to make this difficult. I'm trying to identify who I'm talking to and uh inform my dispatch who I'm talking to and we can go on about our day or we can take this on and we can escalate up to resisting if that's what you would like to do. >> In this shocking encounter, a bus driver who also works Uber is simply sitting in a public parking lot waiting for his next ride when an officer rolls up and immediately begins treating him like a criminal. Instead of calmly assessing the situation, the cop zeros in on the driver's ID and never explains what law has been broken. Every time the man asks what crime he committed, the officer dodges the question, grows irritated, and pushes harder. He even threatens to escalate the situation to resisting despite having no evidence of wrongdoing. When another officer arrives, the first cop's ego cracks further as he mutes his body cam and calls the man a exposing what he really thinks when he believes no one will hear it. This encounter shows exactly how far some officers go when they cannot justify their actions. Let's watch how this cop completely unravels over nothing. >> Hey, what's going on, brother? >> Hey. >> What you up to? >> I'm an Uber driver and a bus driver. >> Oh, you drive for Cington? >> Yeah. 659. >> Okay.

Yeah, you can walk in the school and school session. >> You can't go to the office, but that's it. School is closed. >> What do you have here when the school? >> Because I'm an Uber driver. I just delivered a pizza from Pizza Hut up the road and I didn't want to drive. I don't like wasting a lot of miles. And I'm also a bus driver, so I figured this would be a good place to stop and wait for a Uber. You >> bus driver here? >> Yes, I am. >> Which one of these buses is yours? >> I told him.

Now you now that you gave me the ID since my SH sergeant came up. >> No, I was getting the ID out before you even called for somebody. I didn't just give it to you because he pulled off. >> Okay.
