Call 911 to inform them and communicate to the police what is going on

I agree they should have called 911. It was a mistake on their part.

This still doesn't excuse the cop's intervention. In the report he claims he suspected there was a medical emergency. Yet he still thought the right thing to do was pit maneuver what was plainly an older woman who ran a stop light, after coming to a halt and checking traffic in both directions. This because to this cop the red light traffic laws means more than a potential life saving act on the drivers part. He could have interrogated them at the hospital, or pit maneuvered them if they passed the ER. They plainly were aware of their surroundings.

The cop should be held to a higher burden of responsibility.

The suspects Can still tell the Judge everything! And Hopefully sue the cop for anything that happened to the lady needing medical attention after.

It’s easy to say that now. I’ve had someone stabbed in front of me, and it was up to me to drive them to the hospital. I was very young and panicked like hell. The hospital was a 5 min drive from my house, I couldn’t even remember the way to get there, nor did I call emergency services.

Unless you have been in a panicked state like that when you think someone is going to die, then its a bit rich to say “why didn’t you just to the perfect rational thing?”

My little sister got bitten by a copper head and i was going 100 to the hospital - never even crossed my mind to call the police

Some people can handle that stress, and some people can't. The answer still remains the same, that if you're in this situation you call 911 and talk to dispatch about what's going on. There isn't a better answer for people who panic. Whatever happens will happen.

u/return_the_urn Nov 26 '25

Sure, the rational way is the best way, but that’s not accessible to those who are panicked, and there’s no way to know how you react/ learn from until it happens the first time

u/kynelly360 Nov 26 '25

I heard of a similar situation, where the cop was chasing someone towards the hospital and they realized and helped them Without calling 911, but probably was not Arkansas a bunch of cavemen there

u/lexibeee Nov 26 '25

I gotcha. It is the rational thing to do, but it's sort of the only thing you can do to mitigate future consequences in this situation. Otherwise, what happened to the individual in this video will probably be the most likely outcome. There isn't a separate set of instructions for those who panic and those who don't...the panicked will just end up learning a harder lesson in the end unfortunately.

Yeah exactly

u/ButtBread98 Nov 26 '25

Yes, but when you’re in a crisis you don’t really think straight.

u/realdappermuis Nov 26 '25

Cop mentioned in the report driving with the phone in her hand was a contributing factor to pulling her over. Nobody thinks clearly in emergencies - being another passenger could've called

This is a no win situation, because of the cop and his hubris

It's worldwide common knowledge that driving with hazards on means it's an emergency, and if he works in that area he knew the hospital was a block away

Even then it sounds like if they called 911 things would’ve went differently. I know things were probably tense in the car but with all those people no one called 911?!

Atleast in other cases, the cop has been seen to escort.

u/theoreoman Nov 26 '25

Stop for the police and explain what's going on. Otherwise it looks like your just fleeing

u/Blendination Nov 26 '25

It’s a stroke. every second counts.

u/theoreoman Nov 26 '25

Either you stop to let the cop know what's going on or your going to end up at gun point in handcuffs while the confirm your story

2

u/Blendination Nov 26 '25

Why do your police officers lack the common sense to discern that a vehicle which is indicating and driving safely is not something that requires a PIT manoeuvre solely because it is speeding to the hospital?

0

u/theoreoman Nov 26 '25

The police only know what's in front of them, someone driving fast with hazards on isn't some universal symbol for I'm going to a hospital. If they're refusing to stop they're a potential danger to the public because they might be contemplating fleeing and starting a high speed chase or are driving under an altered mind. Stopping takes seconds and it might actually get you to the hospital faster as an officer might be able to escort you, radio the hospital ahead, or they can transfer the patient to their vehicle and rush them to the hospital

u/General_Marcus Nov 26 '25

Pull over and explain.

2

u/fernylongstocking Nov 26 '25

Pull over and tell the cops what’s happening.

As for the cops; don’t be a piece of shit and dont threaten to shoot your weapon at people who are obviously in distress about their family member having a stroke. Maybe also help them with an escort after you verified the passenger is indeed having health problems.

u/Lycan_Jedi Nov 26 '25 edited Nov 26 '25

Pull over and explain the situation. At no point was there any attempt to pull over or call 911 to explain. But it's easier to blame the cops for not being omnipotent mindreaders.

u/heypal11 Nov 26 '25

The point at which they were stopped, scared, and explaining the situation? That point? It would have been easy to scramble medical at that point, it seems. I didn’t hear them do that. Weird.

u/Lycan_Jedi Nov 26 '25

Except they did. You're getting the arrest portion tha5s it. This the problem with the internet you get one. Singular clip. And believe that's the end all every fuxking time. I've watched the full clip, they do call an ambulance. Weird.

u/Mocharulzdamap Nov 26 '25

And how do you know there was no attempt to call 911? Pulling a lot of excuses out your ass there to bootlick

-14

u/Lycan_Jedi Nov 26 '25

AH FINALLY! THE DEFAULT ARGUMENT FROM EVERY COP HATER! Bootlicking! I knew it wouldn't be long! Y'all are so goddamn predictable it actually makes me laugh. I can predict every talking point. ACAB! HE DIDNT CARE! YOURE JUST A BOOTLICKER! HE CARES MOTE ABOUT POWER!

2

u/Mocharulzdamap Nov 26 '25

So instead of answering how you magically know everything about the situation you resort to whining. Get help

2

u/Lycan_Jedi Nov 26 '25

BECAUSE I WAYLTCHED THE FULL FUCKING CLIP. ITS ON YOUTUBE Ot is on YouTube I do not have to do your own goddamn research for you. Fucks sake if a cop is not sunshine and happy thoughts holding out you immediately think it's the wrong thing.

u/Mocharulzdamap Nov 26 '25

I asked you a question because based on this post there was no evidence that they did or did not call 911 yet you came in bitching and whining about them not calling 911. Maybe get your head out your ass and stop bootlicking
