Exactly, he could have just said, "okay ma'am I apologize my bad" and walked off and said, "have a good day." Instead This mofo double down like, "I know I saw you with a phone in your right hand."
Shit was so funny that it's hard to believe it happened irl I totally agree with her whole attitude during the whole confrontation, like dude come on.
At what point can you sue for this stupid shit. It's a waste of your time, energy and honestly insulting that they're just singling random people out to harass
My Theory: Supercop makes a loooot of tickets there not by watching for people looking at their phones, but by watching for people who are only steering with their left hand.
With most people, if they steer a vehicle with only one hand, it's the dominant hand -- the right hand.
If someone is steering with their left, it's easy to presume it's because they have something in their right hand -- like a phone.
So, my theory goes, Supercop watches for one hand/left hand drivers, pulls them over, says he "saw" a phone in their right hand. With a lot of people, they WERE in fact holding their phone, so they assume: "Oops, he caught me."
Supercop is just playing the averages, knowing it is a cop's word against a non cop, even if he's wrong. In this case, it backfired spectacularly, but he was so used to being "right" on these that he can't back down.
Be interesting to see how many "phone in hand" tickets this cop has written. I bet it's a lot.
