3. Not once in the video does he show what speed he is doing while stuck behind the officer. The cop could have been doing the speed limit for all we know, its hard to judge speed by just the camera.

4. He jumped over 2 lanes to pass on the right.

5. He accelerated quite quickly and was more than likely going over the speed limit. While the cop was out of his jurisdiction, the guy recording was driving in excess of the speed limit, while displaying road rage and the cop has a duty to protect people and this guy wasn't being safe on the road.

You can demonize everyone who wears a badge regardless of if they have ever done anything wrong, but the guy filming IS also an idiot. And are ALL cops useless bastards, really? How many police officers do you know? Yes some cops do make stupid mistakes, but they're fucking human too. Not all cops are corrupt like in the movies.
