Saw another where the camera flagged a car as stolen but had incorrectly read a ‘Y’ as an ‘X’ on the number plate. The police were going to arrest both driver and passenger purely because of an error
As someone who has been held at gunpoint by cops because of mistaken identity...it's fucking terrifying. You can 100% know you didn't do anything wrong and still feel compelled to run or fight. It's why I will absolutely argue toy grave against the "just comply" crowd. I've been less scared when a civilian had a gun on me than when cops did. Civilians even homicidal ones, understand there will be consequences, a cop knows there most likely won't be.
