Knee'd a Better Excuse- Ride with the Hive Episode 7

[@drcbeartooths]

I like this Sergeant. Thank you for removing this impaired young man. Stay safe, sir.

[@AMS-my3ec]

Thank you, Sgt. Pollard, for removing another impaired driver from our roadways. My parents and siblings were struck and injured by a DUI/DWI driver the night of my father's birthday Thanksgiving weekend a decade ago. I can still hear my sister's voice on the other end of the phone as she called me from the back of the ambulance as the siren screamed in the background. That driver sent 9 people total to the hospital that night, all because he made the choice to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana. I will never forget that night nor the helpless feelings I experienced as I was 600 miles away from my family in their time of need. This man needs to step up and accept the consequences of his actions, period. He's so hung up on his driving with his knee and eating his chicken nuggets that he keeps deferring responsibility for his actions. Embarrassing. Can you imagine what the consequences would be had he hit or killed someone, or even himself? A few moments of pleasure aren't worth it. If you drink or use drugs, find someone else to drive you home who is sober.

[@Jesterpec666]

The professionalism of the LEO during the DUI was to be admired. No escalation and no knee jerk reactions keeping the whole situation calm and courteous. The driver himself was polite too unlike many that are caught under the influence of alcohol.

[@annbracken3387]

Kudos on being so patient with the DUI guy!

[@vivaldihadredhair]

Usually it’s “I’m just trying to get home” but this is better: “I’m just trying to eat my nuggets” - love it!

[@GrantTravels23]

Any time driving takes a backseat to something else, a citation takes a front seat to getting a warning

[@imceltic52]

His nuggets and sauce could’ve been his last meal driving like that

[@spencergates5766]

I wouldn’t have it any other way myself😂

[@davidbrewer3994]

I would like to say thanks to all law enforcement for what they do everyday putting their own lives on the line to keep us all safe MUCH LOVE ❤️

[@chrisvalentine9735]

Any time that you hear “2 beers” it’s probably more like 4-6 beers.

[@chriskellison3468]

2 Tall boys. lol

[@noteworthyinsignificance]

Especially with all the excuses he's spewing

[@willjenkins4195]

.094 is more then 2 beers…

[@TRAITORS-EXPOSED]

Either way still 100% ok to drive. Yup I said it, 100% ok to drive after drinking a 6 pack.

[@willjenkins4195]

@ the law would disagree and the many people who have lost loved ones to drunk drivers would as well

[@btgoddard311]

Pollard is the man! I love the UHP and their professionalism with the public. Great job!

[@ulrichherrera9964]

Good drinking game: Take a shot everytime he said he was driving with his knee and eating chicken nuggets.

[@mr.vending1926]

Just don’t drive after playing 🥴🍻

[@noteworthyinsignificance]

I think the guy was playing the drinking game himself!

[@margopack6343]

Thank you for getting him off the road, my 19 yr old nephew was killed by a drunk driver in Salt Lake.

[@Pea-G]

My condolences 🙏🏻

[@Enispecialist]

It’s interesting to see video of the driving behaviors that raise suspicion of DUI. Most other ride along programs haven’t shown it in that detail.

[@mattyates3659]

Personally I love "Riding Along" with this trooper! He is my favorite so far! I hope to see more video's with him!

[@jremy7]

In case you didn’t get it, he was driving with his knee…

[@TNTIMusic]

Thank you. I guess I missed the one time when he mumbled it ...

[@mr.vending1926]

If he just would have said it one more time, it would’ve convinced the trooper to let him go

[@mikecarver8166]

​@@mr.vending1926Lol. Best comment yet.

Yep the slurring words don't mean anything....

I'm enjoying these videos and really enjoy that you're making longer ones ! Keep up the great work!

[@GillyFromPhilly]

Bro went from “no drinks watching a movie with my girlfriend” to “having some beers celebrating a friend’s birthday.”

[@Whatamidoinghere262]

Imagine the Dart driver crashing and the coroner finding him impaled with chicken nuggies from the airbag deployment.

[@THECANDYISGONE]

Death by chicken nugget penetration

[@Johnny_Utah187]

The first driver was highly distracted. Almost causing an accident. These are the people who should definitely get a ticket. %100

[@thomasfeinstein3771]

I had a beer, well maybe 2, possibly 3, could be 4, but after 5, I lost count, ha, ha, ha. I was driving with my knee because, I have no idea where my hands are at.

[@TheKrewson28]

Thank you for keeping everybody safe out there and doing this job if you get somebody that doesn't speak English you can use Google translate on your phone can you translate from English to Spanish and any other language and then it will speak it for you

[@BatteryAddicted]

Was rooting for that last guy at the end so much... but then the rocking while standing and yep, .09%, wow. A guy his size needs what, 4+ beers to get to that? I did one of those drink with police awareness events with my local PD where they give you a breath analyzer after a night at the bar. Drank 3 tall beers (one a high % IPA), waited 40+ mins, was very wasted - blew a .06%. I can't imagine driving at that stage or worse. (Walked home).

[@userac-xpg]

. 094 is 5 or 6 beers for sure.

[@boblolrus]

Good work!

[@richardjack1848]

Like other comments I to admire the UHP. Always the best of the best! 🎉😊

[@mikecarver8166]

I enjoy thiese. When I was growing up I wanted be work for the UHP. I did work as an officer for Ogden city for a.time. But back then it was a pay cut so I went back to my other job. So, respect for what you all do out there. I wonder though why I seldom hear an officer say "this isn't the final word. You'll have your day in court and you can present your case to the judge...?". Seems like a natural way to stop some of the discussion. Stay safe!

[@CopStateside]

Fantastic video! Your creativity and effort really shine through.

[@gribble2979]

I'm noticing more and more nighttime drivers using just their running lights. The fools have no idea (apparently) how much harder that makes them to be seen by drivers coming up behind them.

[@BigLisaFan]

Nearly ran over a small black car in a light haze at 3:00am doing 30 mph on a major highway. No lights at the back. Caught a flash reflection off the glass. Must have missed him by inches with my truck. If you flash your lights and turn them on and off, only a few turn their lights on. Most just ignore you or flip you the bird. My car has daytime lights but the dash dies not illuminate until all the lights are fully on. Dumbest thing to have the dash light up without full lights in use but I hear that has been changed now.

[@Ruth-x7b]

[@AimingUpAdventures]

I'm sorry, but even as an immigrant myself, how are we allowing people who can't communicate/read our standard language whatsoever, operate a vehicle?

[@triciac1019]

They do take a test. They don't hand out licenses without requirements.

[@AimingUpAdventures]

@triciac1019 They take the test in their language.

[@domk2993]

Lmao right.

[@domk2993]

@@triciac1019right lol. They just take the test in their language…. Let’s use common sense ppl. Just bcuz you speak a different language doesn’t mean you can drive a vehicle. 😂

[@ulfskinn1458]

Same reason why you can drive a rental car in another country when your on vacation without taking a language test. Same reason why truckers in Europe don’t need to be fluent in the language of every country they pass through.

[@blauskie]

"Driving with my knee" sounds like something a drunk person would do.

[@domk2993]

Listening to the cops try and speak another language is hilarious 😂😂😂😂

[@beaver6969lv]

I'm native Utahn, use to be great place now it's crap with all these people moving here.

[@KatySueWho]

Lol you both sound like the group of old people who are always gathered in front of a barbershop, b**ching and moaning about how the world has gone to hell because a bunch of the womenfolk are now wearing pants and have the right to open their own bank account (which they couldn’t do in the 1960’s in most banks)!!!

[@LegendOfFatal]

love all these pd's showing raw footage

[@jays106]

love how they always think "oh i passed the tests" the field sobriety tests are not a pass or fail but they look for clues while you are doing it they have to have a certain number of clues per test. Your eyes are the biggest giveaway as it is not something you can control

[@moshebron2105]

Very professional, nice work .

[@armorers_wrench]

I myself have driven while eating and I can honestly say I was not drifting in and out of my lane. For one thing--my car is fairly modern and it beeps at me like crazy if I veer out of my lane. I also still use my turn signal. I try not to make a habit of it but I will admit I have done that before. i've never driven with my knee though, that alone should get you a ticket imo.

[@oregonstacker2878]

That was one expensive stop at Mcdonalds 😆

[@mattewesteves4157]

professional cool dude

[@BenKlassen1]

Busted

[@LegendOfFatal]

im scared to drive on the same roads as people who say, "i just going straight and put my sign"

[@catboxcleaner3532]

“Is there anything I can do, Officer? I passed every test…” Umm…Unable to stand heel to toe “because my shoes aren’t laced at all” and blows a 0.09 BAC isn’t passing. I hope this driver takes these lessons to heart and enacts positive change. Take care.

[@userac-xpg]

Those tests are not pass/fail anyway. They are just an evidence gathering tool

[@Blend-25]

Nugget boy needs to make arrangements before he drinks instead of acting like it’s the trooper’s fault he was driving impaired. At least he was somewhat polite with the trooper.

[@myravandyke2531]

I still don’t understand how you get a drivers license when you don’t speak any English. It really is for their own safety in emergencies.

[@mrtonyntaylor]

It is entirely possible that this person has a Mexican driver's license.

[@triciac1019]

It isn't a requirement to speak English. They do need to be able to read signs and know what they mean. They do have to pass a written and driving test. If they pass both, they have a right to drive.

[@ruralgirl13]

​@@triciac1019 It's not a right. It's a privilege.

[@SkippyRo]

Welcome to America, driver #2. If we went to most parts of most Spanish speaking countries, they wouldn't speak English for us.

[@time-lapserpro4370]

And? When you go to another country that’s non-English speaking do you study for years to become fluent? Needing to speak English is not a law, it’s not like he got upset at the officer for not knowing Spanish. They both did their best and they were both polite.

[@robertkay9871]

They speak English...😮

[@dreadzjackson5349]

You know that's a touchy subject lol it's crazy when I used to go to Mexico I would just stay to myself because I didn't expect them to speak to me in English

[@AimingUpAdventures]

​@time-lapserpro4370 You should 110% know how to communicate to law enforcement/EMS and read road signs to operate on American roadways.

[@gribble2979]

Yup, I've lived in multiple countries and continents and they expected me to communicate in their language.

Because they’re here illegally but states keep giving them id’s for free

[@triciac1019]

They do need to be able to read all the street signs and know what they mean. They need to know our laws. They take a written and driving test. They get their cars registered and get insurance for their vehicles. If they pass the test and get the registration and insurance, they deserve a license. It would be the same if English only speaking people move to another country. They need to be able to read street signs and know the laws. They would be able to get a driving license also.
