Acting like a douche and rolling your illegally tinted window up puts the officer at risk. If they cannot see your hands or what you are doing in the car, they need to regain control of the situation quickly to ensure their safety.

That being said, these officers definitely need some training in de-escalation techniques. They should have told Tyreek explicitly that either get out of the car or we are going to have to remove you from the car in an aggressive manner to ensure our safety. Give him the opportunity to exit his vehicle and then tell him he is being detained for speeding (not arrested) and that he needs to provide his license, registration, and insurance. If Tyreek would have then continued being a douche and not cooperating, then you put him in cuffs and arrest him for obstruction. The dumb ****s that stopped in the road to get involved are just as stupid as Tyreek. If one of you thinks you need to film, have the driver drop you off and stand on the curb and film. Don't park in the roadway like some entitled jackass.

P.S.--**** Chris Canty. If you haven't seen his angry, race baiting diatribe on Unsportsmanlike this morning, I implore you to watch it. What a ****ing dickhead.

This is the best response to a cop, "What seems to be the problem officer?"
