This is like Deja Vu.

Even the same state.

In the article I linked about that prior incident , note that the driver who was PIT'd did exactly what the arkansas drivers manual said to do. (If challenged I can try digging up the pdf of the manual again, but I assure you it's there.)

I have stronger opinions on this topic than I'm really going to get into here. Suffice to say, we need a change, and there needs to be more of an impact on police than a settlement a year later paid by taxpayers.
