then let me be on my damn way without violating my fourth amendment I'm being molested by my government for doing nothing wrong and you wanted my li you were speeding I was not speeding that's your interpretation officer Gilpin from the midling police department stopped a driver initially claiming they were using their phone while driving under Texas Transportation code a driver may not use a handheld device unless it's part of a handsfree system the driver promptly corrected the officer showing the phone mounted securely embarrassed Gilpin admitted his mistake and shifted his reasoning to claim the driver was speeding the abrupt change in accusations signaled the driver to challenge the officer's reasoning further ma'am and so the reason why you got pulled over as you passed me I noticed you had your phone up no my phone's right here well maybe it was my mistake then then I st Inc corrected have a good day no you're not pretty good you seem to be in a hurry sir was I speeding yes you were no I was not okay you you weren't speeding no sir all right you license do you have me clocked for speeding or did you pull me over for that because that's the first time you told me you pull me over for that now you're telling me speeding let me start over Okay please do I said I noticed you with your phone you corrected me you said your phone was a up you didn't have your phone your hand so I was I was mistaken I so then you got me for something else now yes sir okay you have a supervisor I do have a supervisor so your license please your license please what did you cluck me at I sir I did not clock you exactly so I wasn't speeding because I saw you whenever I turned off A Garfield and and I am obviously not going to speed past the cop whenever I passed you I was going 16 mph it's 25 on these 20 or 25 on is quite a distance away I'm going to give you a warning let you go you want to talk to my supervisor all right I'll call my supervisor so you're holding me here you ask for supervisor because you're asking for my license for no reason because I wasn't speeding I'm not going to give you my license unless I was speeding Gilpin then asserted the driver was speeding based on visual estimation despite lacking radar evidence according to Texas Transportation code section 1 speed violations must be supported by clear evidence of unsafe speed for conditions or exceeding posted limits the driver maintaining their speed was 16 mph in a 20 or 25 mph Zone pressed Gilpin for proof of any infraction unable to provide such evidence Gilpin insisted on obtaining the driver's license the driver citing their fourth amendment rights refused to comply without probable cause of an infraction I'm not going to give you my license unless I was feeding all right so you want to so if you're good with it I can drive away I don't need your supervisor but if you but if you want my license and you're going to violate my fourth amendment you're absolutely getting your supervisor you want me to call my supervisor are you do you want my license yes I want your license get your supervisor here all right 133 so those are pH officers that not my super supervisor side to so he's coming over okay great use resources there I'm sorry great use of resources there okay you again you asked for supervisor something well because you're trying to violate my fourth amendment sir are you or are you not why do you need my license if I wasn't speed if I didn't commit an infraction why do you need my license visually you can't pce from sitting still you cannot Pace from sitting still I'm going to argue with you okay well then prove your point so let me expl how do you know I was speeding I'll sit here and shut up you tell me how you know I was speeding visually you came up rapidly behind me you were speeding my interpretation I didn't get you your radar so that is why I told you you were speeding okay you don't you don't know that so you don't get my license you don't have to give me a license you want a supervisor I asked you doesn't give you a verbal let you go you want my supervisor my supervisor on his way so that's where it is no no no you wanted my license to give me a verbal this all would have been done if you would if you wouldn't have said you needed my license for nothing you heard what I said you don't know any violation and you wanted my license speeding I was not speedy that's your interpretation and my no that's the truth cuz it said 16 mph on I'm telling the truth you don't you want to die me you you guys don't like it when citizens don't bow down to you you don't have to bow down to me then let me be on my damn way without violating my fourth amendment you can you can argue and say what you want to say get out of my face dude the escalating confrontation led the driver to request a supervisor after Gilpin insisted on seeing their license without justification under Texas Transportation code section 5 2.02 drivers must only present a license when lawfully detained for a suspected violation the driver maintained their stance pointing out that gilpin's visual estimation from a stationary position lacked credibility when asked to issue a speeding ticket Gilpin hesitated knowing it would not hold up in court the driver further highlighted the officer's failure to Signal when parking calling out the double standard why do you have me stop right now you want me to start over I and I will too and we can shake hands and be done I will calm down sir I'm calm exactly sir so I'm driving I saw you behind me I saw the phone up I thought you had your phone in your hand okay so I pulled you over because of the phone when I came up to here you corrected me and told me and this you're right it's on it's on the mount he said it was on the mount I said sir I stand corrected exactly have a good day you're on your way no and I said you were speeding you you said we're going to start over I swear I'm we're starting over but you're still wrong we can start over I can be wrong you can be right we can all be going back and forth I'm just explaining you asked me to start over so I said you were speeding you came behind me I pull over visually caught your speeding you said you weren't speed in okay that's your interpretation and you're you're the driver you you have the right to say what you believe is the truth I can't dispute what you say is the truth I'm just telling you what I saw and what I interpret and I did not get you in radar you're exactly right I did not so I said you spe I ask your license you said no you said I'm violing your fourth amendment absolutely I said okay you said you want a supervisor okay I was going to give you a verb and let you go I said my supervisor on other side of town I can call him if you want the supervisor and I did if you got to have that license I want to talk to the supervisor and that's that's where we are so at the end of the day so I'm not trying to violate your Fourth Amendment right but you're holding me but you are and I told you're in a gray area right now right what's the gray area you are detaining me right now yes for invoking my fourth amendment it has nothing to do with fourth amendment it does because you don't get that license unless I made something to do with me having prob cause that you violated you go back there and ride a ticket for me speeding uhhuh and we can meet in court but only if you ride a ticket for you to yourself for not using a blinker whenever you got over whenever I when you got over right here and I pass you no blinker used so if you ride a ticket to yourself for not blinker to for not signaling to get over you can ride a ticket to me too get over where right here whenever you parked right here when you Lane did I get over in you got over to park there's only two lanes you got over to park I did not get over the park again it's your interpretation my interpretation okay I'll take the ticket if you want to write yourself I'm not going to write myself a ticket when government the state can never be wrong huh the state can be wrong you're wrong right now buddy and I did not pull you're wrong right now you pull me over for that phone a single Lane you pulled me over for that phone and you were wrong and I corrected myself I told you you right but you still got to get that license it's like crack to you guys I don't understand that you got to have it let me have that license I don't want my as a as a citizen I don't want my information entered into a database any more than it has to be and Sir okay you can say that I wasn't even going to ENT I was going to look at the license and give you you don't but you don't get to do that unless I've done something wrong so my interpretation again you you so you think that how fast do you think I was going you're going over 10% over the speed limit you're out of your mind bro s my interpret you're out of your mind so if the speed limit here is is it 20 or 25 I was doing 16 is it 20 or is it 20 or 25 right here if you say you're doing 16 that is your interpret is it 20 or 25 right here I don't know you tell me you don't know no you tell me you don't either way so if it's 20 10% over would be 22 if it's 25 10% over is 2.5 mil okay so 27.5 so you visually saw me going 27.5 milph you need to get your you need to get recalibrated man okay your interpretation of recalibration then it's fine you're in the wrong sry the we're going to argue and you're in the wrong there's no argument because you're in the wrong we're arguing right now we're talking there's no argument I'm telling you what the truth is I'm being molested by my government for doing nothing wrong because you have to have my ID cuz you violated traffic offense yes no I didn't and your interpretation you're aing liar dude don't come back up to this car get your supervisor I'm not talking to I'm not talking to you anymore you're a liar when the supervisor arrived he attempted to justify gilpin's demand for the license stating they had the authority to stop vehicles and verify credentials however under Delaware versus prous the Supreme Court ruled random license checks without Reasonable Suspicion violate the Fourth Amendment the driver refused to comply arguing that no infraction had occurred to Warrant a stop or license check frustrated the supervisor decided to end the encounter letting the driver leave without further harassment Hey sir sir how you doing what can I do for you man I'm wondering why I'm still here well apparently you called for a supervisor because he wants my license when I have committed no traffic in fraction when your officer first got up to this vehicle he said he pulled me for this okay that's up there when that was wrong then he tells me that I'm speeding I know for a fact I wasn't I looked down at 16 the whole time I was behind him and past him I looked down I was 16 mph okay but he wants to get my license he already told me he hasn't clocked me he estimated my speed from a standstill which you can't Pace from a standstill he says I'm going 10% over the posted speed limit okay from a standstill he knows this I'm not giving up my license unless I'm unless you're threatening to take me to jail oh it I'm not the war you guys want right now with all y'all have going on I was going 16 miles hour but I'm not going to VI I'm not going to let him violate my fourth amendment when he was wrong okay so you just what do you want now what is it that I want to be unmolested for my government and on my way it's not funny well I mean you sat here waiting for me when because he wouldn't let me go okay all he need to do is verify that you have a driver's license not going to do it he doesn't have a reason to see it well now yeah actually we do have a reason to see what reason is that because we can actually stop you to check your driver no yes we can not unless you not unless I've committed an infraction we actually can I search the traffic code it'll tell you right there but that's all he wanted to verify he's going to send you on your way no so go I'll let you go go thank you very much what's your name Wilson Wilson badge number thank you sir thank you the driver had successfully stood their ground against baseless demands this interaction highlighted the consequences of officers attempting to justify unlawful detentions the driver's firmm understanding of traffic laws and constitutional rights dismantled the officer's weak arguments gilpin's shifting
