the street is Mount Prospect which one other side of street yeah where is this other side three Old Willow the north side is Prospect Heights the sou Prospect when you were driving you were in Mount Prospect yeah but so you don't have authorities right yes I do I'm a police officer in the state of Illinois my certification is good for the entire state but you told me Mount Prospect the other side of the street is Mount Prospect Illinois this is Prospect height it doesn't matter when you were driving okay you're an expert in everything all right yeah like I said when you do you know the law or no I do know the law I don't think so apparently you know it better though I don't think so I think you know it better can you show me the proof that I'm speeding that I'm will passing the stop don't don't worry that comes later cuz I don't think so okay I stop at the S the the stop sign and everything okay my hands are out okay I appreciate that don't show me the gun okay I'm out what should I call you hm what would you like me to call you do you have a first name friend just a friend friend yeah okay I'm cool you know yeah I don't I don't want to I don't want any issues either by the way I respect the United States police you guys do very good job thank you and I respect you where where are you from I'm from Serbia the police in Serbia are they not like us I don't know you don't know I and H I don't care because I like you you know I mean you guys did a very good job and I'm I'm very proud of you being here you know there a lot of criminal and stuff but I never do something wrong so I don't know it's okay okay I'm kind of uncomfortable like that you're uncomfortable can I just my my boss is coming right now okay give me one sec once he gets here then then we can have you get out okay I just want to tell you I do not have any guns on this car or on me no no no knives no guns no nothing nothing okay perfect just keep that in mind I appreciate that thank you I'm not dangerous I respect you guys I don't want any trouble so well that makes two of us okay yeah so you can just know about me H man what can I do for you I'm M step up there right I talk to you that cool can I step up okay I'm sure he told you why right cu your officer want to administer any test oh is that where it's head well looks like it if there's anything else I'm going to leave okay all right sir good luck to you so what what we going to do now he's going to tell you it's it's not my job it's up to him I don't have any control of whatever he does he can do whatever he wants to do with that okay so the the first thing we need is a driver's license proof of insurance okay but I don't want to I don't want to give you this well you have to it's required by the state of Illinois yeah but prove me that I'm wrong that comes after I first need to identify you that comes after when you get stopped by the police you're required to provide proof of insurance no I'm not yes you are yeah I'm not you required to prove me that I'm wrong that is inaccurate but I will after I what id you what do you mean after I say the first thing that I need to do is figure out who you are I need to make sure you have a valid driver's license I don't need to prove you who I'm at sir yes you do no I'm not this is a traffic stop is it not yeah but what is the reason for this traffic sir I've explained it now multiple times yeah speeding so you didn't stop at a stop sign where is the and you didn't make a left turn where is the proof of that it's all on camera where is the camera I want to see the camera I can't show you the camera right now that comes later show you the my documents you're required to show me the documents yeah but I'm not okay if you don't show me the documents that's a different charge what is a different Char do do you want to get another charge besides a speeding ticket right now it's just we're talking about speed I want to see the proof that I'm wrong that you're wrong I don't think so okay well when you go to court you can get all the proof you need but we're not going to do that right now on the street okay my hands are out I appreciate that I still need a driver's license and proof of insurance I need to prove that I'm wrong okay listen up listen okay if you don't do what you're doing you're going to be placed under arrest for obstructing justice okay they're going to go to jail and they're going to pay $100 to get out of jail on top of $250 or another $100 the traffic violation so you have two choices listen to me you have two choices for obstructing justice that's what you're doing right now you're required Tennessee versus or uh Pennsylvania versus Ms provide your driver's license and insurance okay so you need to do that right now or you're going to be placed under arrest or obstruc okay I want to record this so with that being said are you going to give out your driver's license right now or you going to be placed under arrest or obstructing justice for what reason okay cuz you're required to as this officer told you for what reason okay step out of the car don't know for what reason on step out of the car you wanted to step out so come on out so for what reason because we told you to and that's an order and then for what I asked you for your driver's license and proof of insurance but for what for the traffic stop for speeding for not stopping at a stop sign up to you at this can you prove me the traffic stop it is up to you at this point you can walk away with a speeding ticket right now and not pay any money or you can go to class A misdemeanor and be arrested for obstructing justice and go to the station it's up to you okay we're going to give you that choice right now but we're not going to play we don't have to do that right now no you that's up to court it's up to court do that no you have to do it get out of the car you have to do it get out of the car no you have to do it so here's what's going to happen I'm going to place my hands on you I'm going to pull you out of the car and now you're going to catch a charge for resisting as well if you pull away from me do you understand that so step out of the car step out of the car now all right well we're going to give him another couple seconds here and we're going to put our hands on him and then we're going to pull him out and if you do resist you're going to be tazed okay you can record all you want guess what we're recording too this is all this going all be off for you for court let me ask sir sir why don't you want to get out of the car let me ask you something if I get out of the cup what's going to happen I'm going to talk to you about why I stopped you are you going to handcuff me if you comply we don't have to handcuff you okay let me get out okay excellent but you guys make sure don't touch me that's fine we don't we don't want to touch you I you guys going to tou here's the thing no we're not going to touch you you give us your driver's license we're going to be out of your hair and we're going to leave careful on the camera yep step around to the back of the car for us you can keep the phone on you that's fine you can step right over there what what's going on I stopped you because you were speeding you didn't make a stop at Burning Bush and Old Willow when you turned left into the apartment complex you didn't use a turn signal three different moving violations I didn't do this okay that's fine but you get to have your side of things in court right now you have to identify yourself that's required by the state of Illinois and what's next after that you get most likely a citation once you get the CIT you get a court date the court date is probably not for a month so you tell me I'm speeding right correct but I didn't sped him that's fine that's your opinion so how are we going to like you get to tell that to a judge later not right now right now you have to identify yourself all drivers in the state of Illinois are required to provide proof of insurance and a valid driver's license guys I'm Not Dangerous I mean don't just come around me like that that's fine I'm not dangerous Do you have a a driver's license with you yeah I have is it on you now no it's in like good okay thank you this is much easier right I appreciate that okay no I don't want any trouble but now you guys stopping me like you're speeding you're passing stop sign and you turning left without the any lights I don't I don't think so I mean that's fine like I said there's a lot of more criminals than me and you guys just stressing me out right now traffic violation doesn't make you a criminal okay you're not a but you just stressing me out all you got to do is give us your driver's license we're going to be done but for what for what reason we've already told you that we're not going to keep going but I want a proof of that you know that's for court and I that's for court what do you mean that's for court when you get a citation that you disagree with they ask for proof that that's my that's my right I mean I know my rights you know I I understand that but the way it works you can't just pull me over and say you you're doing this you're doing that you you know that's not right I mean that's your I respect you guys police officers I respect you I like you guys I understand that you don't dis that you don't understand the process but when you get accused of a crime you don't get to make your case on the street you have to present that to a judge so if I give you my license right now what's going to happen then I'm going to make sure that you have a valid driver's license and then and if after that's the case you're going to get a citation for the the speeding and then when you go to court can you prove to me that I'm speeding when I go to court you're you're going to get to present your evidence to the judge I'll present mine and the judge will make a decision it doesn't get made here it gets made on your court dat look you you you you can say now whatever you want and then when I go to the I say the things that I'm saying are based off what I observed okay do you have it on camera it's all on camera I don't think so then when I when we go to court if it's not on camera then that's what the judge is going to be basing everything off of okay it's not just my word what if I didn't if I didn't give you my with this guy all night done with this okay what do you want to do your driver's license is in the car yeah what's your first name I don't answer any questions okay can I get your driver's license out of your vehicle no where is it in the car I don't ask any questions okay like I said when we first started all this unless you give me the driver's license that's a different charge you have to give that to me and if you don't then you're going to get charged with something else right now it's just speeding very low level I I don't have to do nothing with you guys okay I mean this is how it work I didn't do nothing nothing wrong you know nothing to argue so I'm okay I mean I don't know what going be I I don't know place your hands B back you're placed under arrest please face the car you're going to jail you talk to yourself in jail turn around for what okay for obstructing turn around place your hands behind your back thank you so much leave let
