Why where they not on the phone with 911 while driving
because that’s not only against the law, but, in an emergency when you’re speeding to the hospital, you’re not always thinking clearly.
what I’d like to know if WTF the assh*le cops though thought it was so necessary to endanger everyone’s lives with a PIT maneuver over a speeding violation when they could have gotten the car’s tag and mailed the a ticket? sounds like roided out piggies going crazy with power and endangering lives just because they can. like always. #acab
Not only that but the article says they were on Baptist Health Drive. Judging by the name of the street you'd figure they could see the hospital. Any rational officer should have been able to put together what was going on.
I don't know the exact circumstances but I've been told when my mom went into labor with me, my dad sped to the hospital and somewhere along the way ended up with a police escourt. Granted he may have called ahead to 911 and notified dispatch what was happening, and it was also over 30 years ago so maybe they don't do that anymore.
I don't understand. How is calling 911 while driving illegal? Hands free and speaker phones exist.
The article says quite clearly the pit maneuver was due to the frequent vehicle and pedestrian traffic near the hospital. They where endangering others. Potentially many others.
It was at night, and there wasn't a single other car in the video snipped they showed, that I could see at least.
