Report Inappropriate Comments

I don't know about you Birchwood but regardless of where you keep your registration, the intelligent and proper thing to do when pulled over, is to turn your vehicle off, put your hazards on, put your interior light on, and KEEP YOUR HANDS ON THE WHEEL until the officer asks for your license and registration. It is also smart to comply w/an officer's orders regardless of how you feel about your rights and liberties. He was arrested for appropriate reasons as stated in the story. He was NOT arrested for video taping. Thanks for yet another ignorant comment. And for the record, late night traffic stops have resulted in the apprehension of many people operating under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol as well as criminals. Maybe these people get home in one piece, maybe they kill someone while under the influence instead. And if that happened you'd all complain about the cops not watching the roads.
