[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So this likely wouldn't have happened if the officer had said, I understand your frustration. I hear that you were caught behind that driver, but I have no choice but to give you a ticket. If you disagree with the ticket you can refute it in traffic court. I hope the rest of your day is better. If the smoking was really bothering him he could have said, I'd really appreciate it if you'd put out your cigarette. The smoke is bothering me and I'm required to stand next to your car when writing the ticket. (Which is probably not true and I do wonder why he told her to put out her cigarette except as a power play).
Bottom line, he could have pretty easily de-escalated this. Why wasn't he trained to? Why aren't police trained to acknowledge people's frustrations and not "co-tantrum."[/quote]

I can pretty much guarantee she would have been just as belligerent and disrespectful, even if he had responded/asked in this manner. [/quote]

And that's fine.  She is not legally required to be nice.  Being a brat is not a crime.  [/quote]
