More police brutality than you can shake a stick at.

[Kevbad the Bad]

No she wasn't. She was arreested for being a fucking idiot.

If you have front tinted windows you're going to get a pull. If you get pulled, get out of the car.

Except her windows were totally legal, it turns out.

If that's the case get out of the car and tell them that. Job done.

Dickheads on this site are usually more than happy for the police to fuck about with motorists and there are plenty of genuine examples of police arseholery. Now we've got people dredging up videos from over a year ago of nothing to get excited about.

Oh yeah. I was forgetting how the police, especially in parts of London with a significant black population, are renowned for their sense of fair play and chivalry. Silly me.

P.S. the video has just come to light because it took the CPS that long to decide she had no case to answer"

Plenty of real examples of police racism. She got herself nicked.

If her windscreen was tinted it was a legitimate stop. However, she was legally entitled to remain within the vehicle. But, by asserting that right she got the copper's back up, so he claimed that was grounds to suspect her of something (though, at that stage, he didn't say what), as grounds for a search. This almost certainly wasn't lawful; choosing not to comply with a police officer's request (which has no legal weight) isn't a reasonable ground to suspect someone of a crime. As such, she was entitled to resist the search, such that the subsequent arrest (apparantly for obstruction) would've been unlawful, too. This is a good example of what Bahnhof Strasse and I were discussing recently; the fact that you may not be obliged to comply with the police, but that it's sometimes less hassle to do so.

By driving around doing nothing illegal?

From the article on this:

One knocks on her door to raise concerns that her front windows are illegally tinted. (Court documents later established they were within the legal limit.) When Bennett tells the officer she is scared, he says: “I don’t believe you because you’re talking to police officers.

They were within legal limits.

Probably would have been a lot easier getting out of the car when asked mind rather than several months of legal battles to establish the fact.

Fuck.

I think it would be wise for business owners in the US to install more than one camera system in their premises. Have one of them be obvious and others not so, ensuring that evidence won't be destroyed by cops.

Tazered whilst fleeing. Tazer is a firearm, UK police very much not allowed to shoot people fleeing cos they are in possession of weed. Wait for the ‘honestly held belief’ bollocks to spew forth...

If you have front tinted windows you're going to get a pull. If you get pulled, get out of the car.

I was pulled over a couple of years ago driving home on a dual carriageway - I flew past a police car that was about to turn off but he rejoined and followed me as I was speeding (probs doing 85mph - silly I know).

Anyway he followed me until we got off the carriageway then he put his lights on so I pulled over. I turned engine off and put my window down - he asked me if it was my car, my name and asked me where I was going which was home - he then said my address so he’d obviously ran my plate when following. He asked me how fast I was going when I passed him and I said I was sorry but was probably over the speed limit. He then told me he appreciated my honesty, watch my speed in future then sent me on my way without penalty.

Not sure how common my experience is but I think if I’d refused to open window or speak with him things would have escalated. I mean - he could have been a complete cunt and done me for speeding but he wasn’t.
