Dumbass driver. Vehicular assault on a police officer. :facepalm:

-not even the shitty and dangerous drivers in the Lower Mainland would do something that stupid on a police officer.

Hahaha, looked like it was part of a cruise too. He's fucked.

Also, one tire fire so it wasn't even worth it.

FerrariEnzo 01-14-2018 01:48 PM

dude.. how much you wanna bet, they gona SHOOT first and ask questions later...
Cops in the states are ruthless...

Judging by the modified vehicles behind (GTR and challenger) the C63 at 0:12, they might be part of a car club, group or whatever. It almost looks like theyre holding back traffic so that they could do burnouts

If you have ever driven through Manhattan through Times Square, you would know you don't get too far quickly; I just did it last summer and it was a true test of patience. That, and there is almost a cop at every major intersection (but the traffic cops are not armed).

Did you notice the traffic.. not to mention he HAD to plough through the cars to get out otherwise he would have been busted..

Probably on a Boosted board (electric skateboard).

I realize his life was in danger, but is it appropriate to draw your gun at that moment? he could've shot himself or a bystander once he went sideways

JDMDreams 01-14-2018 07:31 PM

Real life gta, I wonder if they found the guy

It's all about risk assessment, and that's literally attempted murder on a Peace Officer.


So, it is very appropriate to draw his firearm.

Discharging the firearm is another matter, but yet, another justifiable option.

will firing a foot away from glass with a beretta or glock not ricochet back?

FerrariEnzo 01-15-2018 03:33 PM

unless its bulletproof glass or at an extreme angle, I think bullet will win all day...
