That driver is such an a hole. The cop probably wanted to just get it over with somehow. I canā€™t believe he couldnā€™t get any backup

I'm probably too nice, and grew up in an area where you knew most of the community including police. If I was presented with the same situation, especially given the back history, I would have put the guy in the back of the car, taken him home and maybe let the wife or whomever know where the vehicle was, and that they could retrieve it when sober.

Guy in the rivian is clearly a dick, but doesn't mean you cant find a way to bridge things and achieve a better result for all involved.

Anyone who gets behind the wheel when they are clearly a danger to others deserves the book being thrown at them. I don't care if it's your own family, your boss, the mayor, etc.

You're just pissed the Leafs are choking. ;)
Anyhoo, many Floridians aren't even from Florida originally. Check for NY accent.
Iā€™m from Winnipeg, why would I care about the leafs? šŸ˜‚

This video exemplifies calm, thoughtful, and patient policing. Kudos to this officer who goes out of his way to do the right thing, even when it is clearly very challenging.

Meanwhile, who sold this clown a Rivian? What a bad look for the R1 community.

I donā€™t buy into the ā€œR1 communityā€. Me buying this truck doesnā€™t confer commonality with anyone else here outside of sharing a love for this vehicle. I do like/respect many of you here but I just donā€™t care for the idea of community for simply buying a vehicle.

I donā€™t know this guy from Adam, Iā€™m not responsible for him getting loaded and driving around and his behavior isnā€™t reflective of me or anyone else here.
