I say fire the asshole..I believe he even laughs after knocking down the cyclist…if it were Bruce Lee on a bike, the cop wouldn’t dare touch him.

Thanks, Jeremy.

If the officer acted like that three weeks into the job, imagine what he would have done during a whole career?

Excellent post Carlos. I always have a small camera with me, locked and loaded to shoot any video on a whim.

This story proves that the camera doesn’t lie and protects the public. Not only do cameras protect the public, but they also protect police too.

Dashcams in police units are often used to back up an officer’s story.

The camera can be your best friend or your worst enemy.

Great post.

The officer got what he deserved.

The lesson here is that small digital cameras, whether they are still or video cameras, have become like the American Express card.

Never leave home without one.

Thanks for reading!

Thanks for this post, I hadn’t seen that video. Well, all I can say is “wow”. I imagine that all this kind of stuff has always gone on, but before the ubiquity of video cameras, it went unnoticed. The good thing is that now the unprofessional police officers will be forced out of service.
