0:00.0 | What was the funniest police encounter you've witnessed? |
0:03.5 | I once transported a man who sang Abba the whole two-hour drive. |
0:08.1 | I asked if he was on something in case I needed assistance walking him in once we got there. |
0:12.7 | He said, no, if I have to be punished, so do you. |
0:16.2 | So then we sang Abba together. |
0:18.2 | It was awful. |
0:19.7 | Did he know a bunch of songs or even one all the way through? |
0:23.0 | Or was it just like, you can dance, you can dance, dance and queen over and over for two hours? |

1:26.2 | got to the window and asked him why he'd |
1:27.7 | pulled over, the driver said, Sir, this car isn't mine and honestly, I was going to make a run for it, |
1:32.8 | but then I saw you put a helmet on and I knew you meant business. Running a clearly intoxicated woman |
1:39.2 | through SFSTs, or standardized field sobriety testing, I'm trying to check her eyes, which calls for her to |
1:45.5 | keep her head completely still and follow my finger with her eyes only. Every time I move my finger |
