@@carter.coleman obviously he is stating that officers should be more pleased to serve the community instead of being hostile towards every interaction
@@forget2bhuman993 Florida may not use theirs to the full extent, but Lake County Indiana has hellcat chargers, challengers, Jeeps, and Durangos and they use them often to Patrol the many miles of highway in the county. They’re also used as chase cars after a pursuit is terminated
I don't know what the maximum video quality is for RU-vid shorts, maybe 480p cause they don't look ever close to 1080p. I think shorts are downscaled in quality, im not sure...
4500? for a paint fix up and some dents? yeah no you got ripped the fuck off, get a new mechanic my guy. 100% how could you let them do you like that, thats funny as fuck
I know both departments well. MPD is not exactly a role model for police departments. FHPs salary has gone up. What do citations have to do with you? If you Troopers who are ticketing people because of their anger than speak up.
well most start like this guy but the sad reality is they deal with some stuff that would mess with your mind. they see kids beaten and murdered and women as well, they have to save lives and help people even when the people are hostile. so I'd say there is a ton of cops like this man but the reality is that the job can be brutal and mess with your concise and warp your character, they may still be good hearted but they are mo longer as gentle with people as they once were as their life can be in danger st any second in that field
Really should be a law for all police departments to explain everything they use to the public, would be cool to have a RU-vid channel per department and get a nationwide competition goin
I grew up a military brat and they did demonstrations at schools I went to. They even brought a K-9 unit one time, he showed us all the commands even the ones where the dog weaves between legs while the handler advances with a long gun, and had a dude wear the bite sleeve to show us what happens when you don’t comply 😂
A law to explain the tools they use? Dumb af, you can find info and learn about literally everything different police departments use on your own. The info is public.
I have NEVER seen any cop or trooper move a broken down vehicle. I HAVE seen 100s of them sitting behind a disabled vehicle in the road way that would take a 6 foot push to get OFF the road way, waiting for a tow truck. Calling BS on this point.
@Studio DaVeed When writing a wreck report there is a portion where you actually have to draw what the wreck looks like from a top down view. So I'd understand if cops wanted to wait until they filled out the entire 8-9 page report correctly before pushing the vehicle.
@@rodzilla355 yea. Like don’t use it on pregnant ladies looking for a safe place to pullover while driving under the speed limit with hazards on and the offense is a traffic violation. We already do. They ate criminals? Omg!
I've seen JSO in Jacksonville FL use the push bar on their cars to push a broke down car up over and the rest of the way across the Matthews bridge to get traffic moving again. If you have been on that drive during rush hour you know what a true hero that officer was.
I use to work right off I-10 at casset on the west side and lived in Atlantic Beach a block north of the ragtime als pizza area. I made that drive twice a day 6 days a week. We closed at 6 pm and one evening I left work and was just getting on the Matthews when as usual some pileup happened on the Arlington expressway with one of the vehicles on fire and to make a long story short it took me till 1 am to get home. 7 freking hours after leaving work. Needless to say even tho the pay was great I took a job for not much less an hr in mayport close to 2 weeks after that incident.
This is an awesome explanation, and the channel showed some really good examples whilst the officer was talking. I'd love to see more of the educational side of these little things :D
I broke down at the bottom of an off ramp in the worst spot and I had NH state police push me into a gas station and into a parking spot. He told me “ if you haven’t had a tow truck come get you in an hour we’ll leave your car here for the night and I’ll bring you home. I’ll be back in an hours time to check on you. Your about my daughter’s age and I wouldn’t want her sitting on the side of the road for hours.” Sure enough an hour later he shows up while AAA is putting it up on the truck. Restored my faith in the police that not all of them are assholes.
Not all police cruisers were manufactured as police cruisers. The small town I live in have cruisers that were just new vehicles, turned into cruisers by adding lights and accessories that’s needed.
When the video started I thought the cop was going to ask him to get off the property, but he was just answering the questions on why he was filming. This is a proper interaction.
5 years ago I was in stop and go traffic south of Boston, about 20 mins away (near Stoughton old exit 18B). My subwoofer was blasting in the traffic and I noticed the battery light came on. I ignored it. Then my subwoofer turned off... Then radio... Then dash lights. Then my car shut off completely. Traffic started clearing up but I was stuck in the left lane. People kept yelling at me to turn on my hazards but I couldn't. I had to use my light on my phone to point towards traffic so we wouldn't get hit. I called the police and they had to push me across four lanes to the side of the road. He didn't help me afterwards, but I was very grateful because I was immobilized. If anyone is wondering what causes that, it's an alternator going out. Very grateful for the push bumper, he even asked me if it was okay if he could push it against my car because it could damage my paint or cause dents or scratches. Very nice cop
From what i learned working with the FHP, they are the only ones who can pit maneuver car chases. The guy i talked to about it said thats why most of the PD departments in Florida don't have push bumpers, some do for that reason to push cars out the way.
but they dont join em. legally they have to call off high speed chases police challengers are quite literally useless. not a thing they can do that cops need to be able to do
I was rear-ended by a Nevada highway patrol in a Jeep Cherokee with a push bumper. He tapped my bumper, literally didn't scratch my F150. The push bumper bounce off his hood and made a significant dent.
What I'd do if was in that situation and thought it'd work. But I'm pretty sure they're trained to keep a certain distance. Don't go out of sight but don't become one either.
I have never ever in my life seen a push bumper used to clear vehicles blocking traffic. They themselves will block more traffic to block the car while waiting hours for it to be moved by someone else
Then you must be blind. 29 years on and I've pushed countless vehicles with the. From clearing the roadway after a crash to pushing a disabled motorist off of railroad tracks...
I've lived 30+ years .... Never seen a cop once in my life move a vehicle off a highway or otherwise with one of those. I've seen them block traffic till a tow truck arrives, or physically help push it.... But we all know what those are for... It's for pit maneuvers
Perris CA need that. Came home late one night, ran out of gas, I was on a busy road that my truck will be towed if left behind. The following turn is my neighborhood that I live in, coo pulls up with his lights on, started to integrate the situation. I asked for help pushing my truck off the road with his push bumper. He said no and drove off.
So funny how they paint it as "99% of the time we're just helping stuck cars with the ram bar, and 1% of the time it's for pit stops" when in reality it's almost always for pit stops, and never for general help
Have literally never seen a cruiser with push bumpers help push off a disabled car. Have seen a few times while the cruiser parks and puts the lights on and does some paperwork while we push the car off.
Pushing disabled vehicles is bullshit, I’ve had highway patrol specifically tell me it’s illegal for them to do that in case they accidentally damage your property.
Define irony in the TV show chips ALL the squad cars have "push bars" and metal bumpers. The General Lee had a Push bar, the police push bars are collapsible for airbags.
Glad to c a cop that answered questions and had a convo instead of getting mad and threatening a civi for recording on “government property” as they always like to say.
Cops had to use the push bumper on my truck when the motor blew on the service road, they where super nice and we got it into a parking lot where I got it towed
I recently bought a Dodge magnum SXT with a police style pushbar. I know the SXT was never used for police work (I don't think) only the base and R?T models. My magnum was owned by a mechanic and i think he got it from a challenger police car and added it to my magnum when they owned it. I like it, I call it my deer repellant system. The stepson of the owner said it has actually broke a deer's hip one night
They're probably AWD and Challenger is probably RWD. These actually work very well. My mom got stuck on a hill in winter and a Crown Vic(RWD) pushed her right up the icy hill! Was amazed
My work bus broke down at a very busy intersection once. Cops saw it happen and acted immediately, pushing the bus to an empty parking lot. Every department needs push bumpers.
those are brush guards that wrap around the front of the car. They are not meant for impact. The push bars themselves are only held by a few small bolts. You would need an entire bumper replacement to be able to make impact constantly without damaging your ride.
Re: the SUV push bumpers. Some of them have a trick concealed in one of the vertical sections. It's a catching device that is deployed at extremely close range and gets wrapped up in a rear tire and suspension. I've seen two of them after deployment. One was mixed up in a car at one of our DPS tow yards. The second one was a few weeks ago. I was sent to the access road in front of a car dealership and found a Mustang with the strapping caught up in the left rear wheel and suspension. The owner left the car running and went in a convenience store. His reward was that some scum chick stole the car and DPS couldn't convince her to stop voluntarily.
In the UK all these types of bumpers are banned. Having them installed lowers the speed by a lot the speed at which a child would be killed if struck by the car/truck.
I saw a guy stuck on the highway with his 240 drift car. Cop asked if he wanted a push, and then proceeded to push a car with a blown diff up the off ramp. That cop car looked like it wasn't even trying lol
I ended up fishtailing in the rain awhile back, I was driving North and by the end of the whole incident I was facing south on a median with both my rear wheels off the grounds, thus preventing my car from moving. Cops ended up pushing me off the median with their push bumpers. Got off scott free, minus the embarrassment.
