bekimA16.....I did have proof....when he almost sideswiped me I looked over at him and observed him looking down at his phone.

I can make this simple. If that cop was paying attention, this guy wouldn't have to 'stalk' the police officer. He would have noticed him following him too closely, and would have seen the camera. This just goes to show, that there needs to be monitors in the police vehicle themeselves where anyone anywhere or at least the sheriff can have access to monitor who is working for him, like this moron(the cop), who would have caused so many accidents. Not all cops are like this, but he is.

Just to make things clear, I was not following too closely, 2 sec's behind. The camera has a "zoom", second two vehicles going in the same direction on a one way road doesn't constitute "stalking". I got off at my exit, if I passed it I might give ya the "stalking" part, but I didn't. Ma. State Police was aware I was filming and even asked me to file a complaint. I did not file one, just maling a point, not killing a career. He is def. the exception, but a dangerous one.

Thanks for "getting" the point. This was done safely. I even pulled along side him to get his attention. I could'nt because he was too busy looking down at his phone. Again, he is the exception, but if he killed a loved one of ours would it still be acceptable?? It only takes one "exception" to disgrace a dept. Thanks again Ckloudeyes, while you may not be defending me, at least you got the point.

im a cop i do what i want-south park, cartman

[bekimA16]

i dont understand why you think he is texting. How could you possibly know from looking at this video? Police officers have a computer on board, he may have been youing that. Im not saying its okay to do either one while driving but acusing a officer of texting with out any sort of proof is not alright.

@osphoto So you accuse this cop of "Texting while driving." Do youhave any proof, or are you just "Closing your eyes and using the force?" No evidence of a text. You are swerving as much as him. Why, were you texting? sleeping, molesting a child? I have no evidence but I guess you dont need any huh. You sound like one of those guys that enjoy making false complaints on police.
