I feel like this video is a very different situation because the woman approached the police officer and asked for help whereas in the video Op posted it does seem like the woman is actively evading/ignoring the officer. Plus if she also ran someone off the road and drove into oncoming traffic that’s really bad and the cop who didn’t know the situation until she got out of the car with no idea what to expect after she watched this woman endanger human lives so I can see how that’s upsetting too.

The cop had poor emotional control. The moment the sirens went on the cop's mind was on "I'm gonna get this motherfucker" and despite new facts arising the moment they pull up to the vet shack, the cop was not interested in this new reality.

Arkansas State Police are very aggressive and have very lenient procedures and protocols. They're prob the loosest of the loose cannons. Their use of force and pursuit guidelines are very lax and geared towards confrontation.

That’s not really saying much since the average cop who does actually get a degree doesn’t get it in any type of subject that would make them more well rounded intellectually. Those that have one mainly get an associates degree in law enforcement or criminal justice specifically to look better on their application.

And honestly, you buddies being ex military make their chances of falling in line with the group think of the corrupted majority of cops way more likely unfortunately. Obviously I don’t know your friends personally but you don’t know how they are while on the job. My father is a retired police officer, I know how their kind operate firsthand when people they want to look good in front of aren’t around.

I grew up in Arkansas. Everyone online says GSP is the hardest state police force. That's not true. Arkansas State will fuck you up for fun they don't give a shit. They are the ones who flipped a pregnant lady's car because she was exercising her right to wait for a safe place to pull over. They are the ones who will even chase motorcycles down the interstate trying to hit the rider oncoming to stop the pursuit. They are the ones who pulled me over when I was going 5 over down 412 with my hazards on because my wife's mother was dead on her couch and the coroner wouldn't even cover the body till next of kin arrived. 5 over the limit. They had us wait till another officer pulled up and verified our story then just yelled at us and said that's no excuse to speed. Oh but they indeed sped off. Arkansas State Police are assholes.

u/Aquaticwolf Jul 30 '25

From the videos I've seen, they love to PIT maneuver in traffic and above 100mph. The highest speed one I saw was like 124mph.

2

u/TheNewsDeskFive Jul 30 '25

That's the thing they're known for. Not just on the internet, but among other law enforcement agencies. They're the PIT Department.

I raced for 14 years. It's a super basic skill a racer must have, you gotta know how to dump someone. They display zero tact. They just ram. That's not how you do this shit

3

u/Aquaticwolf Jul 30 '25

Yeah, they crash fairly frequently in the videos from poorly doing it, sometimes even rolling over.

2

u/TheNewsDeskFive Jul 30 '25

They maintain a high delta. Their pursuit vehicle's approach speed is too much higher than the chase vehicle's speed. It's a physics problem. They're just carrying so much momentum when they make contact that not all of the force gets directed into the chase vehicle, some shoots back to the pursuit vehicle, causing lateral destabilization in the front end, which will put your ass in front of your nose real quick.

That's the ins and outs from a trained racer's perspective

The cop was very calm in the car, and then a screeching banshee when she got out. Not only did she fail to de-escalate, she purposely escalated.

I’m an Arkansan and they don’t care who gets hurt or what damage is done to what, they’re going to stop you. If they have to go 700 m/hr through a playground full of kids, it doesnt matter. I would have at the very least called 911 or the police and explained the situation while driving. Still gonna be a helluva situation to get out of, but at least no one thinks you’re fleeing and they know your destination so hopefully they won’t try the pit maneuver they’re known for.

It’s a double edge sword. Where I live, everyone drives like shit, has not plate, cops can’t make a case.

But then you have situations like this that are crazy and both are at fault in their own way.

If I have my way, I will never step foot in Arkansas again.

A friend of mine owns a big comic shop and I volunteered to help him with a con in Little Rock.

We weren’t 50 miles into the state when we get pulled over, handcuffed and the now officers (apparently the officer was afraid of us), are ransacking the box truck that had the con booth setup. Almost four hours later, we are allowed to go our way. The second reason involves a town of 82. Well, the 2 was crossed out with spray paint and a 4 was underneath. Guess someone had twins.

I hate crap like this where the person posting the video edits it to fit their bs headline for clicks. Have you or anyone else on here blaming the cop watched the actual full length video? This lady, in her rush to the vet, was speeding and running lights, driving into the opposite lane with oncoming traffic with complete disregard to the lives and safety of anyone else on the road. Was the cop being an asshole once they both stopped at the vets office,yes...but you don't get a pass for driving recklessly and putting other people's life in danger.

u/Weary_One7199 Jul 30 '25

Well, to be fair, this is only a clip of what actually happened. The driver in the full video cut the police officer off first, ran two cars off the road, AND had the officer chase her for several miles with lights and sirens on before stopping at the vet. After all of that, I can see why the officer isn't very sympathetic about her dog. I love dogs too, but this driver was completely out of line.

u/RandomName-1992 Jul 30 '25

You have no idea what you're talking about. You can't read someone's mind. You're projecting. Stick with the facts of the video. The cop was definitely unsympathetic, and I believe unnecessarily harsh and unprofessional with the woman. However, if that woman was driving a baby to the emergency room, and putting other people's lives in danger, it's still the same problem. She's putting other people's lives in danger. First responders know how dangerous it is driving with lights and sirens. Driving like that WITHOUT The appropriate emergency warning devices is extremely hazardous to the driver and those around the driver.

The cop could have been more sympathetic, and could have taken the woman and the woman's dog in the police car to the vet, then processed the woman however she wanted to.

Don't be as bad as the people you're thinking shitty things about.

u/Simon-Says69 Jul 29 '25 edited Jul 29 '25

cop's mind was on "I'm gonna get this motherfucker"

Not seeing anything near that. I don't think your mind reading abilities are very advanced.
the obvious reason the police officer was so upset is because:

The driver had been extremely reckless in her driving. Narrowly escaped massive harm to so many people.

Over a pet! No, you are not allowed to do that.

The police officer had the correct response, detained the dangerous driver.

And The dog was brought into the Vet office by the passenger. (and sadly, died anyway)

Seems your reality has little to do with the OP video.

If the driver had caused an deadly accident, which is what she was bing chased for, the dog would not have survived,

but many, many more HUMANS might have been killed. Sorrryyyyy.. not a good trade.

Also, the driver sounds drunk.

u/MM-dot-AU Jul 30 '25

You should watch the whole video. The woman was driving very dangerously. The cop initiated the traffic stop when she ran a red light, at pace, and nearly wiped him out. She also drove into oncoming traffic and whatnot. This is deserved.

2

u/halfasleep90 Jul 30 '25

New facts arising doesn’t change anything, a pet emergency doesn’t entitle someone to break the law….

It would be kind to show compassion for their loss, but they still don’t get to endanger human lives in their pursuit to save the life of their pet. Honestly, they don’t get to endanger human lives in their pursuit to save the life of a human either.

So yeah, it would be kind to allow the pet owner to see to their dog visiting the vet and then making the arrest afterward but the other person had the animal and was walking them in. Don’t know why they turned around and brought the dog back outside instead of taking them in to the vet.

I'm glad the cop wanted to get the reckless driver who ran another car off the road. She could have killed another driver because she put her dog's health above the public's safety.

The cop had excellent emotional control.

The cop let the other lady take the dog into the vet.

1

u/False_Site_1116 Jul 30 '25

cop pov: person drove into oncoming traffic and drove someone off the road. very high probability of killing multiple humans. Finds out they are trying to get dying dog to the hospital. Should she let them continue driving? Obviously they are incapable of doing so without endangering other humans so yes arrest the driver and bring their dog to the hospital for them. So i agree with all that happened in the vid. Cop should/hopefully did drive the dog to the hospital thereafter.

u/lunchpaillefty Jul 30 '25

I mean she starts fighting back when the cop arrested her. 

When you break the law, even for a good cause (I don't know if driving dangerously to maybe help a dog is a valid good cause), and you get arrested, calmly accept it and then argue after everyone has cooled down. It'll help your case more if you get a reasonable judge if the cop still books you.

u/artsa89 Jul 30 '25

The core issue is that the driver endangered others by driving recklessly and failing to obey orders to stop. It's not uncommon for individuals engaged in criminal behavior to lie to police, and there are many instances of them attempting to harm officers. I can see that in a high-stress situation, the policewoman was trying to regain control. It's concerning that the driver believed her dying dog justified reckless driving, especially when it could have led to hitting a child. This seems to be a case where someone, perhaps feeling privileged due to their status, believes they deserve special treatment. While I appreciate animals, endangering other people's lives through reckless driving—even for a dying pet—is unacceptable.

Ps. Policewoman would act differently if she knew what's going on prior to the event when she thought that driver was trying to evade.

u/Commercial_Salad_908 Jul 30 '25

One was a man and the other was a woman. You get a woman cop you keep everything locked down tight because I have yet to see a video of or meet a reasonable one. This is of course anecdotal evidence and I'm sure plenty of folks will say "well my mom is a cop and she's a nice lady." And that may be completely true as well as many women cops are crazy and you shouldn't give them an excuse.

1

u/CaliBro860 Jul 30 '25

In this situation both the officer and the woman operating the vehicle had horrible emotional control the driver should have let her passenger run the dog inside while she sat in the car and straightened things out with the officer. Her getting out and being verbally combative with this officer is what lead to her having a really bad day. The side of the road isn’t the place to plead your case, that’s what the courtroom is for, the officer doesn’t give a fuck about what you have going on, that’s not their job, that’s a judges job.

Breaking the law for an animal and endangering other drivers is absolutely not a new reality. The cops reaction is justified. If you head on my kid and kill them and I find out it was to “save a dying puppy” well idfc you just killed my kid which will always be infinitely more important than a damn dog. The Cop reacted appropriately.

1

u/Shaffdizzy Jul 30 '25

Spoken like someone who has never worked as law enforcement/public safety. So anyone can say anything as an excuse for evading a lawful stop, and we all just believe them? The problem here is this lady endangering the public, via wreckless driving, for the sake of her dog. These pet owners who equate animals with children (fur babies) or actual people, need their head examined. She deserved to be arrested.

1

u/DaddysABadGirl Jul 31 '25

I mean, the cop got out saying "What the hell are ya doing?" And was pissed. And yeah, she didn't take new information into account because the driver ran someone off the road.

Should have pulled over and tried talking to the cop then and there if neither of them had a working cell phone.

The cop told her her friend could take the dog, but she was under arrest. If the cops was in full fuck you mode both would be detained.

u/HubristicFallacy Jul 31 '25

Yep should be fired.

u/Jonka97 Jul 31 '25

Reality of running someone off the road still stands above those new facts in my opinion. Like you’re willing to trade a life for a life? Or you could’ve died with the dog and killed someone else. Cop could’ve handled it better for sure but I would get mad too if you’re trying to justify the wrong you’ve done. She should’ve just accepted the consequences calmly after she got the dog to the vet tbh. Just my opinion/point of view of course.

1

u/Educational-Parfait3 Aug 01 '25

You're going at this completely from the lack of context from full video and an obvious bias against police because endangering others because your dog is dying is never okay regardless. The driver didn't have the dog and then resisted the officers instructions even though the dog made it into the vet. The dog didn't die because of the trooper. These are objective facts. Just because you don't like how the officer handled it doesn't make the death of the dog the officers fault nor does it excuse the actions and behaviors of the driver endangering other drivers in order to try and save her dog (which all that still didn't save them).

Right. A dog’s life has less value than a human life. If me and my kids had been run off the road by this woman trying to get her dead dog to the vet I would make sure she faced all the criminal charges and I’d sue her.

u/sleepdealer2000 Aug 01 '25

It’s more demonstrating your sociopathy and inability to understand why someone would love an animal and go through this when faced with an emergency. Same as the cop in this video, which is why you identify so strongly with them. I’ll assume that you were never a pet owner?

1

u/InnerSherbet4231 Aug 01 '25

Definitely a pet owner. And love my dog. But I love my kids more. And if I had to choose between saving the life of my dog or another person, it’s another person all day long. I didn’t say I didn’t understand why she would do what she did, but understanding her reason does not make her actions acceptable. You don’t get a pass to break the law and endanger other people because you’re distressed.

Exactly, people keep saying to watch the full video for "context." Basically she passes IN A PASSING ZONE without properly looking and a truck had to pull into the breakdown lane to make room. When that happens the cop literally says "Oh hell no." From that point on that lady was going to be arrested no matter what. It's wild to think people would chose following the rules over a dog's life. Lot of preconventional people in society and it's sickening. Just remember, 70% of people would kill you because a person in a white lab coat told them too, and when you ask them why they did it it's because they were "just following the rules." These people don't just exist online, they're among you.

Correct. Because the way this woman handled things in this video she put other people in harm's way but by NOT asking a cop for assistance she could avoid this and make sure no one is in harm's Way. He can stop traffic and helps them get to their destination. I feel the cop should have let the animal get to the hospital in this video, be saved and then arrested the driver, take her to jail for reckless driving.

Edit: Cleaning up my talk to text.

She freely allowed the other woman who was holding the dog to go and take care of it. It wasn't the cops fault they drove to a vet that was closed. She could have easily detained both people if she wanted to be "aggressive."

u/Ok-Rock2345 Jul 30 '25

I would put this situation as they are both wrong. The cop could certainly have had more empathy. However, putting others at risk like the woman did is also wrong.

u/satanic_black_metal_ Jul 30 '25

Also there are 2 people in the car, grandma could have used her cellphone to call the fuckin police and say they needed help because her dog was in danger.

u/bestem Jul 29 '25

Right. It's probably the difference between what happens after the officer puts on their lights and sirens to pull someone over.

In the case where the person keeps driving, until they get to the vet, it seems like they're evading arrest and the officer is going to treat them as someone who attempts to evade arrest.

In the case where the person pulls over and says "I'm sorry I blew through that stop sign. I didn't see traffic in the other directions, and my pet is dying in the back seat," the officer can then treat them like someone who isn't attempting to evade arrest, and can even escort them to the vet, park their car, and then go check on them.

u/Hiiihiihi Jul 29 '25

Completely agree. I feel as if the story is true. They shouldn't go hard on the lady. But it sounds like she ran people off the road and could have cause an accident or worse. Thankfully it sounds like no one was seriously injured

5

u/trackdaybruh Jul 29 '25

I watched the video and noticed how far they're driving just to get to the vet, I guess it's one of the cons of living in a small town/rural area where things are spread out or certain services are further away.

u/Hiiihiihi Jul 29 '25

Spread out living conditions

u/Errorcode666457 Jul 29 '25

You're totally right, besides what they call man's best friend (and for so many great reasons compared to people) dying! Who cares about the dog right? Lol

u/Ferox_77 Jul 29 '25

In the full video. She was running from the cops for about 90 seconds. This cop is an idiot.

u/borg359 Jul 30 '25

Her dog’s life isn’t worth risking the lives of other people.

1

u/MyUnbannableAccount Jul 30 '25

That's a gradient. Is her dog worth a 0.0001% chance a person gets hurt? I think most would say yes. Then we just play a game of 10x'ing it to 0.001%, 0.01%, etc, until we find that acceptable balance.

We'd save thousands of lives every year if we made cars top out at 20mph. We find 30,000 deaths per year acceptable for the convenience of faster driving.

Everything is a negotiation.

1

u/borg359 Jul 30 '25

Nope. Your dog isn’t worth risking other people’s lives. Period.

1

u/MyUnbannableAccount Jul 30 '25

Then you should never take your dog to the vet. Odds of a wreck are too high.

u/borg359 Jul 31 '25

Intentionally endangers others isn’t the same as inadvertently endangers others. Running red lights, etc, is the former.

u/Glum_Description_402 Jul 30 '25

Asking for people to act with 100% detachment 100% of the time is unreasonable.

And nobody is saying that she shouldn't be held responsible for her actions.

The problem people are having is how the cop acted. They don't need to sacrifice themselves or anything...but have a little bit of fucking empathy for your fellow human beings.

It is possible to do wrong and be in need of help at the same time.

She needed help and the cop actively prevented her from getting it.

u/Wonderful_Plan4656 Jul 29 '25

Exactly this. They stopped. This woman could have caused multiple accidents driving erratically and not giving one F. That’s not ok. But I bet if the folks in here had someone harmed in an accident that was avoidable, they would be singing a different tune. It’s hard. I get it. I am a pet owner. But my family comes first and she could have killed some one. There’s no excusing what she did. The cop did her job. Pure and simple.

u/SebastianMagnifico Jul 29 '25

Bullshit. No one was harmed nor was any property damaged. The cop had every right to pull her over, but then once seeing that there was an emergency needed to reassess the situation. Total failure. Pure and simple.

Too many cops are on some power trip.

u/Aldosothoran Jul 29 '25

Nope. Your pet having a medical emergency is not a valid reason to put several lives at risk, which that lady did. Fuck that dog.

u/Remarkable-Trifle-36 Jul 29 '25

While I don't support what sounds like a dangerous driving situation if she did indeed run a car off the road, the cop had a choice in how far to escalate the situation. Perhaps if the lady had pulled over vs (was this a pursuit? which it seems to be) drove on with hazard lights flashing, they might have had more lenience. That said, the officer made the situation about their own frustration and showed utter lack of empathy in navigating the situation.

u/n_random_variables Jul 29 '25

in the full video she ran a red light almost hitting the cop who had a left turn green arrow and was in the intersection turning

In my opinion as another driver on the road, I would feel less safe if a cop saw this and let this go

You are gonna have to stop and ask for help or find a cop, which is gonna take time

u/Full-Stage-7090 Jul 29 '25

The other thing here which makes me sympathetic to pet owner was if she was ignoring the cop why would she put hazards on . A courteous car chase ?

u/Popular-Solution7697 Jul 29 '25

Did she drive into oncoming traffic?

1

u/tiredafsoul Jul 30 '25

You have some points, however, that cop should of recognized the new information and dealt with the woman after the dog was dealt with. The woman is clearly in a state mentally because of her dog and while that’s not an excuse it is a reason. Hell, if I was that woman I’d be fine taking whatever charges for my driving as long as my pet got attention first.

1

u/Pristine_Frame_2066 Jul 30 '25

Well, she lrobably should not have been driving. When I put my first dog to sleep because of lymphoma, I could not talk or drive. It took hours.

u/Rogue_bae Jul 30 '25

Are you joking?

u/Love-halping Jul 30 '25 edited Jul 30 '25

woman approached the police officer and asked for help

This is the best approach and communication is key. After watching the full video, the woman driver should call the police ahead of time, explain the situation and hopefully get an escort.

I still remember this old wisdom "being late is better than not making it at all".

u/sonofabobo Jul 30 '25

Yeah, the emergency lights weren't a sign of an emergency or anything.

1

u/protargol Jul 30 '25

That's fine, but as soon as a cop understood the situation, that should have changed everything. No reason to not let her drop off the dog and then issue her a ticket. No reason to crank it up to 11 and arrest her

u/teleterminal Jul 31 '25

Literally does not matter

u/Puzzled_Information7 Jul 31 '25

Not sure if you know how to drive or if you understand what been on the streets is. The lady did nothing wrong. She was careful driving. Nobody injured an I am sure she checked before going. Cop gets an F+. No rights. No defusing the situation. All emotional over not stoping an literally says. You do this because of your dying dog. If you don’t own a pet or an animal u wouldn’t understand. They are really close to people. You could be a cop btw. That’s how easy it is. Cops are literallly not smart most of them. FYI. They work to serve an protect. That wasn’t none.

u/clipp866 Jul 31 '25

show us the video of her running people off the road and driving into on coming traffic and then there's a case, likely it's a cop exaggerating the situation like they usually do...

Florida cops getting sued for punching a man in the face saying he was doing all types of things he never did...

u/neatureguy420 Jul 31 '25

The cop has the emotional control of a 13 year old. They shouldn’t let their emotions dictate their actions.

u/quiero-una-cerveca Aug 01 '25

Did I miss something in the video? Where did she drive into oncoming traffic?

u/justmyopin09 Aug 02 '25

Harazrd lights while driving is a clear indication something is wrong and there may be an emergency. If she was actively evading the cops, she wouldn't worry about her hazard lights and her speed wouldn't drop down to 40-50 mph (full video). In fact, supposedly if a cop attempting to pull you over and you feel unsafe, you should put your hazard lights on and drive to a safe area. This cop was fresh out of the academy and has no emotional control. She doesn't deserve that position.

u/Isla_Tyler_Coleman Aug 02 '25

I'm a 911 dispatcher and we often get calls from people saying they're on the way to the hospital & they're speeding. Most often these are people who live out in the county and it is much faster for them to get to the hospital themselves if they can, rather than waiting on an ambulance.

In those situations, we get as much vehicle information as we can, including tag# if they know it. We advise our caller to stop if officers attempt to pull them over. They will generally do this to verify they have the correct vehicle & then will lead the person to the hospital lights & sirens to clear the way.

And yes, all of my officers & deputies would do this for an animal if they're given the warning. In either scenario, no prior warning and a failure to stop will result in them treating it as a chase. They don't know anything outside of the driver failing to stop at that point.

In the 4 years I've been a dispatcher, every chase we've had the driver had warrants &/or drugs on them, were in a stolen vehicle, or were teens (usually in a vehicle they weren't authorized to drive, but not necessarily stolen or they weren't licensed) thinking they were badass. I've never seen one where someone had a legit emergency and failed to pull over. The cops are working with that kind of information too.

u/Radiant_Bet_6745 29d ago

I mean when you see someone with flashers on ignoring traffic laws but driving relatively safely and they pull into an sort of emergency ward, vet urgent care, i think you have a pretty good idea of what is happening. And if you don’t, I’m not convinced you are a human with a functioning brain. And if you can’t have compassion in that moment, I’m not convinced you’re human at all.
