Hopefully, the "criminal" here will call upon a personal injury law firm. The officer, and her employer need to be reminded what excessive force means. I am sure mental anguish can be proven. The state is hurting for money, and this woman? cop is about to cost them a big cash settlement. The officer was a woman right?

I feel bad for the kids watching this go down.

She needs, at a minimum, to have the crap sued out of her.

The PI bar in Minneapolis closed 11/15. She had no place to go for music, so she brought her own.

She probably beats her pseudo wife.

Sorry about the last post. I didn't realize "****** ********" was a bad word.

For a couple seconds I thought Pete Rose had found a new job.

After seeing the dash cam video I respectfully repeal my plea of it was a little bit both of their faults to total abuse of power.

I rarely use my signal because pricks like to speed up in the lane you're moving to hoping to not let you in for some unknown reason. Often using your signal is more dangerous :|

If she should be fired, it should probably be for performing the worst PIT maneuver ever.

The correct way to make a lane change is to use the opposite signal. That way, when the pricks go to cut you off, it opens up the lane you really want to get into. An old trick I learned in Chicago. Works every time down there. :D
