    It never ceases to amaze me that despite officers stopping motorists or cyclists in good time for what ever reason, you still get the dickheads who pay no attention and have to move on causing possible injury to themselves and others.

      Not sure when this was filmed but SEG would not have any priority for a conversion course to the X2, they'd probably be waiting until last. Far more officers using their tasers without sidearm that need the X2 for a potentially life saving second shot.

      it is a privilege, dont get me wrong, but the escort and skipping traffic is not supposed to be a privilege in the first place, it's for their protection. because of all the protection theses "vips" have always had, we simply dont know or imagine what could happen without the escort or protection, but given their rank, what they represent, and all the threats, they are targets to be protected. and an escort needs to keep moving and never stop. it is exactly the same for dangerous inmates being transfered or driven to court.
