I have seen that one. Never been clear exactly why he pulled them over. Anyone know the back story to all that? He seems awful pissed at that driver. Something about "hand gestures" and such.

The video makes it crystal clear that he is an asshole on a power trip.
I recommend reading the EMT's statement:

Looks like you have a grudge against police officer. The police officer just wanted to talk to the driver of the van, but the other EMT tried stoped the police officer from talking to the driver. Why? All this problem was started by the man who stoped the police from talking to the driver. He should be locked in.

I sincerely hope you're joking.
THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS INCIDENT.
God you people are foolish. You take your emotions from things completely irrelevant and use it as a reason to ream this cop in the original video.
He probably should have just turned her around and cuffed her right when he said she was going to be arrested /END STORY.
He tries to and she pulls away. Watch the full vid. People are idiots.
Oh I did...Im not like some of the idiots here who just argue for the sake of it.
I think as soon as she walked away he could have restrained her by grabbing her around the shoulders and pushing her against the truck and slap them on without doing more than bruising her maybe.
Then again, I have never put someone in handcuffs, so maybe it would not have been that easy. I'm not going to make that judgement call because i'm NOT A POLICE OFFICER, therefore I wouldnt know.
She was being ornery and fussy, but had not threatened him.
Old people can get like this, especially the ones who've had a stroke or have alzheimers or some just suffer from dementia. We have a lot of elderly here in Hawaii. The cops I used to be around everyday had to deal with them all the time. One time a lost old man came strolling onto our parking lot and proceeded to walk behind the building. My boss told him he couldn't go back there, he yelled "I live here god dammit!" and kept walking back there so the 2 guys who wash the cars back there stood in front of the gate and begged him not to go back there, it was very slippery and he could be hurt. He started kicking at them and tried to punch them. Luckily a couple of the officers had just pulled up for their break and jogged over to help. They asked him to calm down and he turned and tried kicking and punching at them. Scotty who is about 6'3 solid built Hawaiian guy just advanced toward him, took a couple weak hits to his chest and then wrapped his arms around the old man in a bear hug. He then said in a calm voice "Calm down Uncle and we will try to help you, be aloha uncle." The old man stopped and then Scotty let him go and asked him to walk over to some chairs. They sat down and talked to him and called to ask if any calls had reported an old man missing, the mans daughter had actually just called it in. She came and picked him up, he'd walked out of the house and she'd been looking all over for him. He had been suffering from dementia for quite a while. But they deal with people like that all the time, they may even appear to be a normal old person but something is misfiring in their head so they aren't aware that they are acting strange.
here some people with dementia have wandered away from their homes or care facilities and froze to death in the winters. a man with a bully mentality has NO business being a cop even on his best day. it makes him COMPLETELY unsuitable for the job and i believe the guy in this vid is exactly that.
I think if she had a case that bad of dementia or alzheimers she wouldn't be driving in the first place. This point is moot.
i don't think she had dementia she was just a crabby old bitch. i bet when she was younger if you pissed her off she'd hit you. seriously what old lady is that confrontational? she escalated the situation. n sorry but no ageism here old people can be assholes even when in complete control of all their faculties. but the cop is supposed to be above the behavior he displayed. it's like if an angry little kid tries to stand up to you you don't bite, you handle them like an angry little kid having a bad day not a felon with a warrant out.

Then media is going to say that the police officer physically assualted a 72 years old woman. Besides, I think using taser is better than above idea. Old people have very fragile body. If hand-cuff was used, it might tear her skin or break her bone if tried to resist. I have personally witness how fragile their bodies are. I once grabbed a hand of an old patient to stop him from pulling his IV out at hospital. Later when I let his hand go, I noticed that there was my finger mark on his hand and his hand was bleeding from torn skin.
Are you serious? The Taser completely interferes with muscle control, causing people to fall down. A fall like that could cause an elderly person a very serious injury and could even be fatal. The Taser could have even caused cardiac arrest.
They do drive, just like a drunk shouldn't be driving but they still do. Some may be normal until some kind of outside stress sets off the dementia, getting pulled over by a cop is a pretty tense situation. The 2 times I got pulled over I was nervous.
Here is a very recent scenario. Just a few days ago one of my GF's co-workers was driving behind a car going super slow in the far left lane in one of the tunnels through the mountains. She was at least 3 car length's behind.....all the cars behind her were switching to the other lane and zipping by. With her kids in the car she decided to just stay behind him and not try to jump into the other lane because cars were doing 60-70 and they were doing 35. Right before a curve in the road the slow car came to a screeching stop, an elderly man got out and came storming back to her car. He started beating on her driver side window and yelling. Cars were zooming by in the other lane so fast her car shook everytime they passed. Her kids were terrified so she called the cops, the dispatcher said "what can we do, by the time a car gets out there it will probably be over, take the mans license plate down and when you get home make a report." So she does that. She knew the cop who came to do the report and yesterday he calls her and tells her the old man who's just starting to show signs of alzheimers and his wife who was in the car with him has it worse, he had done the same thing to another car the same day on the same road. He had no drivers license but they still drove. The cop had gotten in touch with the old mans son-in-law and he promised they had taken the keys away and were in the process of selling the car, the old man must've hidden the spare keys. They do stuff like this, their judgement is starting to go as if they are going backwards through mental development, they first act like rebellious teens, then children and finally babies. I've seen it first hand having taken care of my GF's grandpa and his wife both in their 80's.
