  1. She was stopped for failing to signal a turn. Cop gave her an unlawful order to put out her cigarette then went rogue when she questioned it.

  2. Wrong, she did not have to put out her cigarette and cop has no authority OR REASON to order her to. This was a rogue cop.

  3.  David Holcomb  Cop went rogue when she challenged his UNLAWFUL order to put out her cigarette. Nice try.

  5.  @Soma81  Use that legal expertise of yours to articulate to us the law and reason that give him authority to order her to put out her cigarette. Go ahead, we'll wait.

  6.  @travisdurham29  Ok, I'll play. He has a right to ASK her to put it out. And she has a right not to. We done?

  7.  @travisdurham29  He could've given her the ticket without telling her to put out her cig. The cig was irrelevant to the law he was enforcing. He just wanted to flex his cop muscles.

  8.  @travisdurham29  I've watched hundreds of police videos and side with cops 99% of the time. He had NO LEGAL REASON to ask her to put it out. Burden's on you to prove otherwise. You can't so why are you fighting me on this?

  9.  @travisdurham29  But he ordered her out because she told him she's allowed to smoke, not because of the traffic stop.

  10.  @travisdurham29  Neither was it illegal for her to keep smoking. But THAT was his reason for asking her to step out. Not the traffic stop. Not suspicion she was hiding something. Are we done or do you want to keep going?

  11.  @travisdurham29  And yet the cop was in the wrong here. Guess I was right after all.
