"You just passed a state trooper going 111 MPH!"
"Well, that sounds dangerous. You should talk to your troopers about speeding like that."
Brilliant
It was prob cuz the trooper was going the opposite way
The first time I found myself in handcuffs! It certainly could have ended a lot worse.
I used to have a set to go with the CVPI. Did I ever use them? I plead the 5th

What do you mean "First time"? How Many times were you hadcuffed?
I live in Arkansas and will say that the majority of towns are just glorified speed traps.
It just goes to show us that there are some really over zealous officers that keep escalating what is otherwise a calm and cooperative situation. There's gotta be something in a policeman handbook that says that you shouldn't be rough with
a surrendering suspect.
Seems like a high quality dash cam that records front and rear is close to mandatory for any newer, new, expensive car. Nice to have a video and audio record of what transpired before, during, and after an accident and/or police interaction.
better have a spare hidden one. from the sounds of this situation, the cop had already broken a few laws not reading them their rights, pulling a gun on them and handcuffing them with no evidence of a crime. if he saw the dashcam chances are he would take it and destroy it.
@@socks2441 You're confusing arresting and detaining. Nothing you listed is illegal for the cop to do.
@@megaangelic I don't know why people think cops can break laws and not be held accountable. Brandishing a firearm is illegal. I am not certain what legal limits the police are trained in use of their firearms, but there is a level a merit that must be beyond scrutiny as they are allowed to "in the course and scope of his or her official duties" according to Arkansas state law. It sounds to me like immediately pulling a gun on someone who pulled over and was cooperative would not pass merit to detain and hold them at gun point. The officer needs to be taught how to respect others or removed from the force.
@@ResilientFreedom the same reason people think they can break laws. Hitting someone in a car at 110 is just as deadly as getting shot
@@ResilientFreedom they were going an average of 30 mph over the speed limit thats basicaly man slaughter so police man had the right. Car deaths have stayed in the top 10 causes of deaths in america for years.

Omg that made me laugh!
Well done!
Only one: "Cop Killer" by Ice-T.
Having been ticketed in about 10 states, it is amazing the variability of punishments from state to state. But the biggest factor you'll face is the emotions of the cop that pulled you over. They can vary from a verbal warning to them actually killing you. Have fun, but BE CAREFUL out there.
How can someone end up being killed for driving a supercar at ++ 10-15 mph?!!
That will be all on the "cop" doing an absolute Poor job and misjudging the whole situation, especially in a rally like this one with a bunch of decent Guys at the wheel.
Will those bad cops ever grow up?!!
Troopers need to chill
In all my youthful years of being ticketed for speeding, and even one reckless driving arrest where the cop thought I was going to hit him and was a legitimate jerk as indicated by his fellow officers, I’ve only encountered two cops who were emotionally charged.
One who apparently had difficulty sneaking up behind me to pull me over as I maneuvered my way through heavy rush hour traffic. And the other was a school police officer who got his ego hurt because I honked my horn a couple of times at the driver in front of me who stopped in the middle of the road for no unidentifiable reason, but I later discovered why. I actually asked the school cop to deescalate because he was so pissed off.
Nonetheless, those cops obviously didn’t kill me and or even lay a single finger on me for that matter.
so glad to have been born in a civilized country. Our cops don't just try to kill everybody. Only the homeless.
@@JimAlwart You mean like a cop immediatly pulling a gun on cooperative drivers and handcuffing them all? You never know what kind of cop you'll get, some tend to be under a tremendous amount of stress.
Had a similar experience: 89 on a 55 + reckless driving lowered to "driving above posted limit" = $100 fine, no points. Ticket was acquired while driving my wife's Prius, which I think the judge thought was punishment enough.
If my wife drove a prius instant divorce
@@theFORZA66 um... I value half my assets more highly than that.
Was you costing downhill?
I was doing less I was in Lowell and I got reckless and speeding with a $700 ticket I was doing 80 in 60
89 in a Prius? was a gas car towing you? 🤣
Ed has the tremendous ability to drag a 3 minute story out for 16 minutes!!
3 minute story, 13 minute ad.
And we like him for that. What kind of heathen doesn't enjoy good stories?
Yeah, short story, he is a lawbreaker!
I don't think it would take you 3min to tell story how you got handcuffed by the side of the road, waiting for weeks if they gonna send you to jail and if you gonna loose your driving license. That's not everyday story like like "bakery was closed and then I seen a dog".
Do you find him relatable? Same with superspeed rob. I just don't see how he draws anyone in and not out.
*This guy doing 90 in an exotic car gets pulled over.

So?! Give your ticket and fuck off

In NC a high speeding ticket use to come with a free "and well earned" beatdown by NC State Troopers, shit you not, they call them Troopers, like the Nazis...good lord.
especially virginia beach dont in va beach and get stopped by a state trooper
McGyver777ATGMAIL wait what? Explain. I live in NC and have never heard that. I have been pulled twice by State Troopers (twice in the same month) for going pretty fast. The second one was nice, but the second one was an absolute jerk. Threatened to arrest me.

"I do most of the talking..." who'd have thought that!
Ed was having a good week until his insurance company saw this video.
I got a 102 in a 45 in Vegas on my street bike. Went to a local lawyer before I left town with 500 in cash. The ticket was lowered to a non-moving violation, zero points. Lawyer up folks, they just want to collect a fine. Helps to have friends that know good lawyers too.
Got 2 dui droped to reckless cuz of money
Yup throw some money at it , you're screwed at that point so I'd rather give it to a lawyer than the other side of the system.
Facts. I got arrested in NC for speeding 105 in 45. I tried to run cus I was way up ahead but got blocked by to cars. Cop took me to jail. I bonded out no money because i was in the military. Then when I went to court they were really pissed because I had a NJ license so they couldn't take my driving privileges and my lawyer got it down to a 150 dollar ticket. And the lawyer was free at that
@@dessossa4913 fuck you 😁👋
Maybe you've grown up now.
@@dessossa4913you deserved to go to jail
Almost all handcuffs are keyed the same, so that fact that Jovian stayed in them longer probably just means the cop didn't like him for whatever reason.
Yep,They all use the same master key.Most departments mandate the brand of cuffs the officers have to use.
@@jl4091 the cruisers too :^)
@Wakka Flakka Here we go again....
@Wakka Flakka go away
And I have one of those keys on my keyring at all times, just in case.
Actually surprised by this. As someone who crosse’s Arkansas frequently, I’ve never even been pulled over. I do speed, but will not say how fast. I’ll tell you this. When you’re in Arkansas and are passing an entrance ramp, look back. Troopers are parking there shooting radar more now than they ever have. They also have unmarked Chargers that look 100% normal.
Red. , Dark blue, blue, grey, white, and black. I’ve seen them so be careful.
Lol even worse then that
I had a neighbor years ago that worked in the capital, lived about 70 mins south of the capital, maybe 60 if your cop...
Point is , they live far enough away to prevent people from recognizing the car, and his car, had racing stripes.
After I knew who he was I saw his car maybe twice in Little Rock over a couple of years ( and countless look alikes that where just normal people )
So yeah , I'm just adding to your statement , in Arkansas the cops do what ever it takes to "blend in" with their chargers and trucks
The six dislikes are Ed's insurance adjusters. Yes, they assigned a team to his account.
Actually it was the six cops whp were there @ the stop.
Adjusters are for handling claims. Underwriting is who asses the risk involved in a given policy. Not tryin to be a grammar nazi, just informative

Liar Liar. Great movie
One time it was 3AM and I was almost done with my drive from Tucson to Los Angeles, and right about 1 hour from my final destination I was stopped by a police truck. Scariest part was I looked down right as the sirens went of as I looked at my speed...105mph... I was so tired my foot started to get heavy and being distracted with a few friends in the car I didn't know I was even going over 90.. So he pulls us over and says "You know I've been following you for like 10 minutes" immediately my mind was racing, thinking about all of the crimes I might have just committed. The cop looks at us and says "at least your under control, make sure to slow it down a little till you get home" and he just wrote me a ticket for speeding at 85mph in a 65mph zone...To this day I wonder what else I did or if he was just following me for 10 minutes to see if I would speed at some point. Which I think he knew was inevitable in that mustang.
I had one pull me over screaming " You was doing a 110 in a 55 What is your problems" my reply " Sorry sir I must of left my parking brake on." I never had a cop go speechless before.
A few years ago New York instituted a "Driver Responsibility Assessment Fee" which charges you $100 if you accumulate six NYS points (in-state and out-of-state drivers) over an 18 month period. They add $75 for each additional point over 6. So a single speeding ticket can zap you for $750 over 3 years. If they get you on two charges, it adds up super fast. No idea of what would happen if you were caught doing 110 through the Empire State.
11 points. ill assume its 41+ over. $100 + $350 + base fine (up
to $600) + up to 30 days in jail + license suspension. don’t fuck up in NY
It's pretty sad that the citizens have to calm the police down and deescalate the situation.
well you would be pissed if your high speed chase did not occur ..

Arkansas you can be arrested for wreckless? I have gotten 2 wreckless driving tickets before and never once went to jail. One was at 16 and again 19...both timea caught racing.
@@Brian-yt8eo I got one in Ar at 18 too. Cop was livid and threatened to arrest me, but luckily he calmed down. I was delivering pizzas and he did go to the store to tell my manager though. Manager did care, he just laughed 😂
+1 to the Ticket Clinic. I have been pulled over for speed multiple times and have been involved in an accident all in Florida. All offenses have been cleared, all charges dropped, all points removed. Absolutely fantastic services. Best $90 x 5 I’ve ever spent.
Holy shit remember seeing that. I was on my way home to Memphis with a load. I'm in that white Heartland Express Freightliner on the opposite side of the highway at 5:18.
That's awesome. Vinwiki will become so big we will have eyes all over the world :)
I have been making a trip between hot springs and Memphis every weekend for over a year now why couldn’t i have seen this ?
This is amazing!
Wow cool you made the video :)
I think I saw yall too, I'm not in any of the pictures. But I'm pretty sure I saw some of the group when I was on my way home to Conway. Kinda weighed out cause we don't get those kind of fast luxury cars in our neck of the woods
Seems like a lot of states are starting to crack down on speeding. Unfortunately, they seem to be ignoring the guy in the F150 going over 100 MPH while focusing on cars that are actually built to handle higher speeds in a much safer manner. I can't tell you the number of times I've seen a 5000+ lbs SUV or truck running at high speeds, passing me in my 3300 lbs sports car. Yet, who gets targeted? The sports car.
This is why I think graded licenses would be a good idea. People willing to put in the track time and get certified beyond the typical drivers' education should be afforded the ability to exercise higher speeds on open roads if desired. Then they could actually post safe limits for the enthusiast as well as keep the general population safer. I mean, the Autobahn in Germany works pretty well -- we have plenty of places where this would work in the US.
This is so true. Im betting its because most cops have trucks for their personal lives so they take it easy on other truck drivers but thats just my theory
The probem isnt you, its the idiots around you that can’t be predicted. For example, slow cruisers in the passing lane causing dangerous weaving through traffic by passers. Or someone merging across a lane illegally.
I remember on a roadtrip with my mom once, on the freeway with her minivan she was driving slow in the left lane as usual impeding traffic because “its under the speed limit”. Loud challenger passes her on the right at moderate rpms and barely 5-10 mph faster, yet she goes “oh shoot” and swerves in the lane. ???? We could have fishtailed and died tbh.
Couldn't agree more. Light trucks are a disaster on our roads. Rollover prone dinosaurs based on old technology. Built for profit, designed to skirt regulations, and put you and everyone else at risk. They're a menace.
I usually drive around the speed limit, but I love to see these supercars hitting hyper speeds. Yeah, they're idiots, but the ones flying in SUV's/trucks/vans, they are F&*$*%& IDIOTS!
@@dudeonbike800 Light trucks? I use mine for work/hauling, rarely sees 70mph. How is this a "menace"? It's always the asshole behind the wheel, not matter what you drive.
"I do most of the talking"
Ed, you could talk under water with a mouth full of marbles.
Plot twist: The Ticket Clinic called the cops on three wreckless drivers going over 200mph, to spice up the show.
The local enforcers are so unpredictable in their behavior. Luckily the adults (you and the attorney), were able to finesse the situation. Good job.
So are people bud tf ,you act like only cops have behavior problems

Im from britain, First time i ever got pulled over was when i moved to america, (Lexington, kentucky) trooper said he caught me going 60 in a 40 when in fact the road i was on was a 70. Its insane how american police will ruin people's days for their own satisfaction.
I don't think it's for their satisfaction. dealing with angry people isn't really that fun. you probably went from a 70 to a 40 because highways will sometimes go through towns and they obviously can't have you going 70 through the middle of a town. the sign may have been covered by a branch and you just didn't see it
Exact same thing happened to me. He played it off like he was doing me a favor by only giving me a 200$ ticket…
@@infernodotdash2203 the sign next to us said 70, the periodic signs down the road said 70
@@synnie107 you can take it to court and have it dismissed, and the officer will have to show up to court and explain himself which would be an absolute embarrassment for him. it makes no sense for him to do that. it could happen, it just doesn't make sense
The dumb thing about the US is that cops can try to give you a ticket without any hard proof. They can just be like, "I saw him go by and it looked like he was going 70"
I got my first speeding ticket in Arkansas. 70 in a 55... he wrote it down to a 67. Thanks man!
Any cop pulling a gun for speeding deserves to be fired
Welcome to Arkansas
They just love pulling their guns, that's the problem, sooner or later it'll get out of control like with the Cleveland cop Micheal Brelo, he jumped on the hood of a car and unloaded his sidearm through the windshield, then he dropped the mag and put another one in and unloaded it, turns out the people were unarmed.
That’s a juvenile police officer with little or very little life experience.
Southern cops. Gun drawn, pulling civies out of cars, cuffing folk - all the while never explaining the reason for the detainment. It's like these guys received their training from watching Dukes of Hazard episodes or something.
They pull their weapon because that guy is a threat. If someone is reckless driving they are a threat to themselves and everyone around them.

We live in Canada where cops excuse trucks going like 15 over. Seriously, you never see a pickup pulled over. This is why my dad is ALWAYS rippin it
Ed, glad you made it out. I live in Little Rock, and it’s important to note that Arkansas State Police do NOT mess around - they think they are the judge, jury, and executioner around here. Our city cops are are lot more easy going.
ASP gives me trouble constantly in my Mercedes. They must hate the tint.
Wish I had known you’d be coming through!
That’s so true I’ve been stopped by Little Rock city cops and they are cool but the state police are a**holes

@@BigPapaHomer I've known the owners of the company I work at for 18 years so I don't worry about it as much as I would otherwise but it's always in the back of your mind, that's for sure. They have some high priced attorneys and really deep pockets so they're not going to get left hanging on some trumped up charge and they won't loose a good employee over that either but not everyone has the resources they do. They are also really good friends with a lot of the people in local county and state government. Their family has lived in the same place for 100-150 years so they pretty much know everyone and everyone knows who they are.
Had a bus driver call the cops for making a legal pass on a dotted yellow on a mostly empty state highway while moving no stop arm or lights. Was a super careful pass because I didn't want this to happen. Stopped for gas in a tiny town 40 miles up the road and cop blocks us in lights on. Held our licenses for an hour then let us go with a verbal warning since the bus dash cam showed it was a legal pass of course. Bet the bus driver didn't even get a slap on the wrist for false police report.
@Chris B Can confirm as an Oklahoman, I regularly feared for my life when I used to ride the bus. Was one of the main reasons I got my license as fast as I could.
WOULD'VE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As an Arkansas resident, I feel your pain. Revenue collection seems to be concentrated on the Interstates and US Highways. State hwys and country roads, rarely see any enforcement, except near towns.
It would be really difficult to police AR-7 or AR-5. Both of those roads suck to drive on if you don't know where the next turn is going. Although if someone wanted to do a timed rally for charity, and enlist a couple police departments, AR-7 from the north side of HSV to Ola wouldn't be a bad option. Although I have a feeling it wouldn't be long before someone went off the road and ended up dead.
I got pulled over in Kentucky for having a radio in my car that I listen to trains on when I am filming them for my channel. I have a license for the radio but the cops didn't know the law and arrested me and impounded my car. The judge threw the case out when I showed a copy of the law and a copy of my radio license. I had been falsely arrested and never got an apology. I hired a local attorney since I live in Ohio and the day before my trial my attorney called and told me that her husband was a cop with the same department. I was out over 2 thousand dollars and spent the day in jail when I never even broke any laws! It was like being on the Twilight Zone. That was my first time to ever sit in the back of a cop car and it was a hot summer day, the windows rolled up and the engine off while they played with my radios,them not knowing a thing about that kind of stuff. My faith in the police was lost that day forever. I'm still thinking of suing. If that can happen to a retired guy with a clean record, it can happen to anyone.

I think you mean a dodgy trooper who charges for the state...Road Pirates/Revenue men. $$$
The very last line of this video is “We’ll have to save that story for another day.” What I heard was “We’ll have to save that story for when the statute of limitations runs out.”
For future reference... when driving through Arkansas, put a bible on the dash board. Just saying. It works.

Is it because they feel bad that you have an imaginary friend?
@@kimmygibler760 Think it, but never say it. Making fun of a LEO's beliefs will also get you a ticket right fast. IOW, take the 'Darwin' fish log off your trunk, too. The key to regularly speeding successfully is to avoid being noticed. Sports cars are fun on the track. Vehicles that look exactly like the unmarked cop cars work much better for the interstates. Think; how often do you see a plain white/grey/black Charger (or years ago, Crown Vics or Caprices) base models pulled over? Today you want a Tahoe, Explorer, Suburban or whatever the local troopers drive, in the same color that they are driving as well. And don't draw attention to yourself. The last ticket I got is now from 36 years ago.
Fly under the radar. Tricks are fun. But Stealth gets you through.
Lives in Arkansas, can confirm.
Except you forgot to mention the part that Tahoes, Explorers, Suburbans, v6 chargers are not fun to drive. I am not going through all of that trouble and ruining my driving experience just to avoid getting a potential ticket or two
I can imagine a cop saying, "Nice Ferrari! I have a Mustang 5.0 I'm working on." lol
Can you do an interview with a representative from The Ticket Clinic?
Im an Arkansas VinWIKI fan sorry you had to go through that.🤦
Cornell Williams same here! I'm surprised they had that terrible in arkansas and not Oklahoma!
Price B FOR REAL!
Same here. Oh, and the guy in the green was probably a sheriffs deputy, each department can have their own uniforms.
I'm kinda glad they did, otherwise we wouldn't have this great story.
@@bebereyes5514 I agree I wish I had know they were in town I would have pulled up lol
While traveling through Iowa, I got a ticket for 70 in a 65. 5 miles over the limit! It was $185 with the added on costs. Iowa sucks the royal dingle!
Were they speed cameras by any chance? In one month of me living in Sioux City I got 3 speeding tickets and 1 for making a right on red, apparently it's a no-no. 5-10 mph over on the interstate wont get the attention of a Houston cop, especially the damn RIGHT ON RED.
That ticket would violate the 8 amendment and would get thrown outta court
My man speed cameras here in iowa font even flash unless you are going more than 12mph over the limit.
10 over on the highway is normal in the midwest. Too much distance to cover and the roads are flat and wide. Nobody gives a shit as long as you arent being a complete tard.
What probably happened is that you made the mistake of speeding in a speed zone, and those are heavily enforced yes. But those exist in many states, not just Iowa.
Did you admit to how fast you were going? Police radar have an error of +/-5 mph generally, so in almost all circumstances they can't or won't try to take you to court because it's hard as shit to prove. Unless they ask how fast you're going and you say "Oh I'm not sure about 70". That's why lawyers say don't talk to police and why Ed mentioned in this video that cops try to get you to confess because it's basically a guaranteed ticket at that point.
@@ALittleMessi No, he was going the other way. I saw him and looked down. I didn't even hit the brakes. Who is going to write a ticket for 5 over?
He U-turned and pulled me over. I live in Nevada and would have had to travel over 1500 miles to go to court. He knew that. He politely wrote the ticket.
The worst part? They made sure to contact Nevada so it went on my record.
That trooper was probably a rookie if he drew down on you for speeding. Stopping you is one thing drawing down is something you only do on a felony stop.
But there was no proof of the alleged +110mph....so how can they charge you..? Genuinely interested to know.
It doesn't matter. The judge will side with the cop 99 out of 100 times, regardless if he knows the cop is lying or not.
@@77yogurt Majority of states, the cop has to provide some documented proof of speed if you go to court to dispute it.
6RadaR6 they have cameras in the car that covers the radar you're car and the date it happens
@@Stars-Mine You're a fucking idiot.
@@carrollshelby8690
Ok so if a driver challenges a speeding ticket and the cops don't have any documentation to back up their claim how's that going to work for the prosecution?
Ok, if you say
"they'll make something up "
isn't that tyranny?
In the late 80s We were coming back from Texas on route 40 in Tennessee. A Camaro passed us doing about 90 We were in a car with a turbo charged four cylinder 5 speed manual. So I pulled out behind him and caught up. A lot of cars in the late eighties were lozenger shaped so if you were not looking close they all looked about alike. Where 40 crosses the mountain there is a turn. Right at the top a Tennessee trooper was running radar. We could see him throw things down and get ready to chase then we were around the turn LOL in the right lane was 4 newer cars all silver as was ours . I slid over in the middle and matched speed. The Camaro floored it. The trooper came up and slowed down looking in each car and people looked right back. He didn't know which was which. He took off and soon ran down the Camaro. When we went by he had his gun out ordering the Camaro driver out. I would have loved to hear the driver explaining how he had no clue who I was.
john kendall Nicely done!
Personally speaking, VA is one of the worst states to drive through. Speed limit is 70 which is great, but they give you a reckless driving ticket for anything 80+
They also thrive on ticketing for the most minor traffic offenses, always looking out for tints, going 3 over, etc.
Fuck em
Got so lucky, was speeding in Fairfax and cop said he got me going 59 in a 25. Only let me off with a warning.
Youre still at it huh? 🥴
@@hankwilliamsjr4676 is that a real thing? I've always seen speed monitored by radar but never noticed a plan. That's insane!
@@xavierbaker8780 you my friend are one lucky dude. I've seen people get caught at 81 mph and written a reckless driving ticket for doing over 80. Keep in mind in most places when the speedlimit is 70, people typically cruise at 80. Can't do that in Virginia tho :(
they couldn't find the handcuff key??? wtf!! all handcuffs use the same key, peerless, smith & wesson, etc... that cop was full of s#!+
@Patrick D
That's because you look exactly like Barack Obama and the cop was a Republican.
No they aren't. Most are, but definitely not all of them.
i live in arkansas, i’ve had my my license a little over 2 years, i got 3 speeding tickets in a span of 9 months
Gotta slow down. Insurance will eat on ya.
3 in 9 months... i got a drawer full in 6months :0
hail hortler ooop that ain’t it
Not anymore
Michael Gray what?
I had a NYS State Trooper full on SCREAMING at me because I was doing 45-50 in a 30 on a country road, lol, carrying on about what if a child ran in the road, etc. These houses were 150 feet back from the road with open grass lawns! She told me not to even challenge the ticket, or she'd make it worse! That more than anything made me slow down in the future, but yeah, I definitely still challenged the ticket. :P
Turns out she couldn't make court that day, so one was tossed (reckless backing), and the other was a seatbelt after speaking to her coworker.
Pro Tip: Right when you top a hill and see the light bar on their roof or your laser detector starts shitting on you, Stomp the brake as hard as you can and hold it til you are at the speed limit and then let off. When you slow down this fast the return pulses to the radar gun are giving different speeds every pulse and it wont lock in a speed until it gets several pulses in a row that are the same number. When you do this properly, they will be shaking and hitting on the radar gun as you pass by looking confused. But they stay there and don't come.
I've always wondered about this! Thanks for confirming, I always just figured it was because the readout would be going crazy from the numbers changing so quickly lol
as far as I know, modern radars can keep a record of each pulse in memory for purposes like calibration and some will even be able to tell when you're decelerating and display the peak speed rather than a steady speed for when you slow down. Plus, a lot of departments are switching to lidar which can get a continuous measure of your overall speed. I think some of the newer ones can even display this info as both velocity and acceleration at the same time. So the old braking trick might not be so useful in the near future.
What is the legality of those laser detectors these days? Can you get in more trouble if you are found to have one?
I got a Ticket in Arkansas years ago. I am from NC and while driving home, I observed a Highway Patrol coming closer from behind me. I was in the middle of 7 cars moving along the road at about same speed. I observed the Highway Patrol getting between each car behind me then move up until he got to me with NC license Plate. He turned lights on and pulled me over. He explained he had clocked me speeding and I would have to go with him to Courthouse to pay fine of $300.00 right then. I did not have that much on me as he stated cash only would be accepted. When I told him I did not have that much on me he then stated that I would have to surrender my NCDL to him and send money back to get them back once I was at home. I made him write me a receipt to show if needed and the rest of my trip. This all happened on a Friday. On Monday I got money order and sent it to them via USPS. I received my Driver License on Tuesday. No way they got my payment then sent NCDL back in that time frame. I am retired now and DO NOT drive through Arkansas any more!!!
Last time I was this early, Goodyear had shipped 6000 of the wrong tires to Le Mans
I drove a semi for 20yrs and I know from experience, the troopers in that state are all about money and will write you a ticket for anything.
Especially if you are going from Fayetteville to Harrison. Youll always get pulled over in Alpena.
In fairness, Arkansas has HUGE signs at each entrance to the state, advising that there is NO "tolerance" or cushion, they expect you to follow the limit.
Bro, I bought a $350 civic because my truck was in the shop 😂
That fancy living dawg
Ikr, I bought a 98 escort for $750 so I could park the 97 mark viii lsc and keep of the mileage.
Another great story! There was a lot of great advice given on how to conduct yourself when pulled over and I hope others caught that as well!
This video reminded me how broken and currupt the legal system is. Attorneys that play golf with judges get lesser sentences for their clients...
Greetings from Bentonville. You should have known that only the Walton's are allowed to drive exotic cars in ARK. That was your first mistake!!

Fedex drive crazy too often enough.
@Moto Guzzi woah woah woah... no one needs to die over this.
Fort smith here 🤣 I49 from fort smith to day town I’ve been pulled over so many times 🤣
I live in Arkansas, It’s unlikely to get arrested for speeding, unless you get pulled over by a state trooper
Jacob Harrison your a dick and you know why
I second this
Reckless is mandatory court and jail time. Careless is you can just pay the fine in arkansas. Ask me how I no. It just got off my record. But I ended up getting another citation for 15 over.
@@laoboidennis479 nothing in Arkansas is mandatory. And I'm probably the one that arrested you
@@brerrabbit9668 hmm doubt it. Aint been arrested since 2006.
Lifelong Arkansas resident. Was written a ticket for going 56 in a 55. Not joking.
Virginia once gave me reckless for 86 in a 60!
Thankfully a very good lawyer and a court appearance with a sympathetic judge got it dismissed upon court fees.
Anything over 80 MPH in VA is reckless unfortunately
@Seán Patrick Eckmann Yup a lot of states are doing this 20/25/30 mph over and it’s reckless or sometimes immediate arrest and impound.
XRAYRON yeah I was threatened with being arrested for going 90 in a 65. Granted I had just slowed down from going way over that.
@@xrayron9557 what does impound mean? I'm not from the US, but do you get the car back? I suppose you have to pay some fine for that..
@webfreakz Yeah they tow it and lock it up until all towing and fines are paid... sometimes depending on severity of crime and location they might “seize” it and basically that means they will sell it or auction it off.
"Yes sir. My associates and I are racing to see who can deposit their payload of Mexican pharmaceuticals at the drop point first. It's an entirely voluntary and friendly competition, and I'm sorry if it caused you or colleagues any distress. We'd be happy to keep it under 80 if that would help, sir."
7:54 Wrong. If you're cuffed and you ask the LEO whether you're being arrested, they don't have to immediately let you go or arrest you. They may not know whether they're going to arrest you at that point. It's called an investigatory detention for a reason.
Only in the USA people get arrested for speeding, which is obsurd I'm sure there's gonna be a few people here with the "concerned citizen b's"
Dav Guy it’s retarded. Sure, there are people that are really fucking stupid and drive 90 in a 60 weaving in traffic, but funnily enough they never get pulled over, you only ever see people get pulled over in the middle of nowhere for going 20 over with no one around.
More absurd is the whole take the keys out of the ignition, place the hands where they can be seen and no sudden moves or the cop might pull a gun on you. Just absolutely insane!
When I get pulled over here in Portugal I don't have to worry about my keys or my hands or my body movements. Actually, most people start frantically looking for all the property, insurance and ID documents when they get pulled over. I guess in the US we'd end up shot by a cop who felt "threatened" half the time
I've gotten stopped several times and never taken the keys out of the ignition. If at night turn interior light on and roll down window and don't reach around until the cop can see you. And I was carrying a gun a couple of those times and the cops were cool about it and I just got a warning for the traffic violation. But I was only stopped for expired tags not major speeding one time and for turning too wide the other time.
Always a delight listening to a new story from Ed. Keep it up!
Cops don't have to read you your rights if you're detained or even under arrest. The only have to read you your rights if you're going to be questioned and interrogated in a criminal investigation.
Police officer: license and registration.
Ed: (waves his hand) this is not the Ferrari your looking for
See Gabe Thomas's comment below from a day earlier.

These videos are extremely educational. This is what I should have been learning in high school.
Here's the best advice on road laws that you will ever learn: Never speed somewhere you've never been or don't frequent a lot.
Interesting... Bill Clinton offering life lessons. 🏃♀️
Bill Clinton
Hey Bill i hear you enjoy shitty cigars!!!!
Depends on what the definition of "speed" is........
Bill Clinton so like 90% of earth then?
Bill Clinton if you’re on a rally, then that’s the exception imo. Otherwise, I agree with you
As someone who's been cited for speed in excess of a 120 mph.
I've never once been in handcuffs
Scary
I've been busted doing 140 over the 430 river bridge here.....didnt get handcuffed, or go to jail, but I did get a quite large ticket and a ton of shiney points on my record that I thought would never come off
I was going 160mph and didn’t even get a ticket but I live in Jamaica so guess I’m lucky 😂
I was going 180 and then I woke up
132 in a 55 in Houston 1984 and I wasn't cuffed or transported.
127 in a 75 by a state trooper in Oklahoma and only got a warning
First time viewer. The fact that you don't talk directly into the camera is very nice to watch. Good videos.
I live in Arkansas 🤣 I’ve been pulled over here many times. 88 96 103 and 138. Tickets every time🤷♂️ I think they just didn’t like ya🤣. Probably cause u had a nicer car than their cousin/wife
Yeah, probably because he talked the cop's ear off, or the cop might have been especially aggravated by all those fugly vinyl stickers on the beautiful Ferrari.
Cousin/wife 😂
Sister/wife
Teacher Chris Exotic cars are like Unicorns here so they probably wouldn’t know the car comes without them. 😂
if all you got was a ticket for 138 MPH you're pretty damn lucky

I love the pic with Ed in cuffs all smiles lol
When I was kid back in the '70's, my family was driving out to Big Bend National Park in west Texas as part of our vacation on the way to Arizona. My Dad had the car wide open out there in the desert west of Langtry, Tx., speedo was showing 105 and I was saying "Daddy go faster", but he said "that's all it will do, son!" Right about then, we topped a small hill and met a Cop coming the other direction. He was hauling ass too, and just waved as he went by. The speed limit was 55 back then too. We expected him to turn around but he just kept on going. I never forgot that, but I bet that wouldn't happen now days.
I just realized every time I got out of a ticket was when I kept talking to the cop rather than just staying quiet. It's important to keep talking to the cop that's in charge too. Sometimes they ride in pairs, but one of them always has the final say.
As an Arkansan, the state itself is a punishment to drive through.
Virginia wants to have a word with you
Indeed, there's quite a Jalopnik story on it...+20mph over or 80mph automatic reckless...yes, that means if the posted limit is 70mph going 80mph is automatic reckless...
Matthew Miller no 20+ is reckless, so 80 in a 60 would be reckless. Also doing double the speed limit ANYWHERE usually automatic license removal.
I drove up to Richmond from NC last year and saw a guy get pulled over for going 75 in a 70. I about turned around and chewed at the cop for that level of pettiness.
@@alexanderdavis6302 20+ and/or 80 is reckless in VA. so if someone was going 70 in a 50 or if they were going 80 in a 65 either way it’s both reckless
My 76 in a 70 ticket and mandatory court agrees, va is the worst. If you can avoid it you should because if you get a ticket you will have no choice but court
I interpret "reckless" as "wreckless," which is the goal.
I tried being respectful and talking to a cop one time and I got told 'NO SMALL TALK'
i feel like those type of cops have mental issues.
Most officer do. Over 75% of police officers struggle with PTSD and depression. Police suicide rates are above the charts right now. With the whole world against, trying to kill you, and seeing dead bodies, overdoses, and just stuff no person could be prepared to see, DAILY, it takes a toll on officers. Look at a channel called "Mike the cop"'s video "Law enforcement hurt lockers" it opens your eyes to the realness of police officers lives
Cops are first line of defense when it comes to protecting the public, and they're also the first target for ridicule. Combine that with qualitative aspects of each officer's life and you don't have the best workers welfare. You can say they signed up for this. But in a way it's a sacrifice, and if there were no cops there would be no such thing as civilization or private property. Many officers in cities work 60+ hours. Those without a fiance or wife tend to stay that way for a long time due to lack of free time. Meaning they live alone and do this with no social support outside of work. Hence the suicide rates.
They also have a high rate of wife beating.
Travis Johnson they shouldn’t be police men anymore. Automatically. They are not mentally able to handle the job anymore at this point
If that were true, there would be even less police officers in a profession where there aren't a lot anyway
