AWESOME or AWFUL: Is THIS State Trooper In/Out Of Line?

Looks like a good case of get your slow ass in the right lane. I like it.

Part of the Autobahn Police and U.S. State Police Exchange Program.

Awesome!

Good for him. Frankly if I was ever in a position to make laws I'd make it legal to ram drivers who crawl in the left lane and steadfastly refuse to move right.

He is awesome, and we need him in Detroit, because there are soo many of these d-bags here.

Best thing on Spies this week.

This year.

LOL I was going to hate on the cop, but now I think he's pretty cool! Mean... but cool!

He could claim entrapment.

The problem with your argument is that if the Civic NEVER goes any faster or slower than the person in the right lane next to them, there will NEVER be a good opportunity for them to move. I come across that a lot where we are going by a tractor trailer in the middle lane but the guy in front gets scared or nervouse or whatever and creeps along at the trucks speed. Either let off the gas and get behind or speed up and move over. It's not a hard concept, people get too afraid of using their gas pedals.

I must agree, I drive in the fast lane all of the time, and if there is a faster driver I am elated to let him be my pigeon, I always let faster drivers pass, but when it is some prick cop is behind you will get a ticket potentially going 1mph over the limit, so maybe that is why the civic was going slow? Maybe this was one of the better cops? I was impressed.

That was just beautiful :)

The cop is a typical union pig.

Haha...Poor Granny may have pee'd her pannies.

Drive on the left pass on the right. Just basic driving.

Awesome...finally a state trooper doing something productive.

Cool video, but the guy talking was excessively annoying.

LMAO!!! GREAT JOB!!!

I wish more police took this kind of action, force the person to the right lane. Maybe a loud speaker would have helped in telling the driver to remain right except to pass or something along those lines, but still great to watch the rule being FINALLY enforced.

The problem is the ticket, cops get more for speeding which means more revenue for the state and less for someone not obeying the keep right laws. So, raise the fine and enforce keep right. Have campaigns like they do for seatbelts and cell phone checks a few weeks a year where they actively promote and enforce the keep right law.

Also, the Civic was in the wrong to begin with, everyone knows that if there is a trooper in the left lane, you have two options:
1) Be in another lane NOT going faster than them
2) Stay behind them at a safe following distance

People fail to realize that even a local cop can pull you over on a state road, they just need to call up the Statey to come and handle the violation.

MY HERO!!!

Wish he would transfer to where I live. What we need is a television campaign to tell ignorant people how to drive. kind of like that foundation for a better life commerial you see. I would call it the foundation for better driving.
