Saw that when it first got posted. I'm glad they started their own investigation. Hope they start an anger management class for the officer.

"I can't stop that g**damn fast when you hit your brakes". Gee officer, that sounds like failure to maintain a safe following distance to me.

Exactly Scott !! I'd tell him to get busy and start writing that "load of tickets" and I'd see him in court for each and every one of them. If the rider had hit/rear ended the cop, what do you think the cop would have done and said. ????

My neck would have been sooo sore, and I would have put the side stand down and
slid off the motorcycle, I FEEL FAINT, call an ambulance! Start writing those tickets now, and we'll bang it out in court. hahahaha Vegas can afford it!

The cop was out of line. His actions says that he knows he was at fault for following too closely.

He needs to be given an opportunity to spend more time with his family.

Plus, I would have had him request medical because I think he hurt my neck.
