[Witness] I had 207 bones in my body after this.
Interaction between the stupid woman in the car in front of us and lovely police officer working an intersection after a crash; O: Officer, W: Woman
W: (driving grey Nissan Maxima) Weaving in and around traffic and pulls onto the shoulder to get to the front of the line of cars. Honks her horn and tries to drive through some traffic cones when an officer runs over to stop her
O: STOP! STOP NOW! gets to her window Ma'am you can't go through. We have two injured parties and we're blocking the road so the medical helicopter can land on the roadway to take them both to the Hospital.
W: I'm trying to get home Officer! I don't know how to get home any other way. I need to get through! pulls out her phone and starts sending a text
O: Shakes his head and sighs I already explained why you can't go through, there is an accident. You'll have to find another way or wait until everything has been cleared.
W: But I NEED to get home sir, please! Let me through, let me through!!! honks her horn
O: You are NOT allowed through. If you continue to disturb our investigation and failing to follow my lawful order, I will cite you. points to the side of the road Wait patiently or turn around.
W: Did you just threaten me? I know my rights and haven't done anything wrong. I want to talk to a supervisor! (I had a Sovereign Citizen video flashback and I was like 'Holy shit is this happening?')
O: That isn't necessary. I am giving you a simple instruction and trying to explain that you can't go through.
The woman huffs with annoyance and flips the officer the bird before pulling a U turn and driving off, after 200 meters she was probably going 80 km/h. The road this was on is super flat for like 2 kilometres.
A few seconds later, a set of lights go on a few hundred meters away and a black Ford Taurus PI pulls out behind the woman's vehicle
Radio (Officer in unmarked Taurus): Unit One-Bravo-Four, show me on a traffic stop on a Grey Nissan Maxima, plate number ABCD 123 on Birch Avenue between Davidson Street and Bloomington Boulevard.
The officer and everyone in our vehicle erupt in laughter after hearing the radio. I stick my head out the window and give the officer a thumbs up.
Me: That was like a scene from a movie. I can't believe that just happened!
O: struggling to stop laughing This crap happens every time working accidents. There will probably be at least two more like her. I'm just glad we were able to get one this time.
Cop comes back a few minutes later. Tells us that the unmarked officer got her at 104km/h in a 70 zone. That's a $200 ticket and 4 demerit points.
I have the utmost respect for cops who work traffic now. Its amazing how incredibly stupid and self centred people are these days. I had a real justice boner after this.
