i agree, cops think they own the road. everyone has to go the speed limit while they’re going 20+ over without lights or sirens. literally saw them yesterday, it’s insane
Cops always assume every one is going to stop or hear them when they’re flying through an intersection Yes we definitely should stop but to assume some are is crazy
Probably an officer from the city of bell PD
That’s what they get for not slowing down for emergency vehicles
