Cop Pulls Over Top-Ranking Officer for Speeding
A Georgia police officer recently pulled over "a souped-up Dodge Charger" going nearly 100 mph, only to discover the county sheriff's chief deputy behind the wheel, according to bodycam footage of the incident. "Really?" says the officer as he approaches the vehicle driven by Henry County Chief Deputy Michael Yarbrough. A uniformed deputy is seen in the passenger seat. Inside Edition Digital has more.

How does he have integrity when he is going 60 mph over the speed limit, 96 in a 35? Thats a residential zone speed. 100 on the highway fine but 100 in residential areas is insanely stupid. He has 0 integrity. The only reason he didnt say anything is because he screwed up so bad there wasnt a chance of talking out of it

Jesus said, "I tell you the truth no one will see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me." For God so loved the world that He give His only Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but will have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the World through Him. For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord, and All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. " If you want to be sure of Heaven and avoid the other place below say the following prayer sincerely from your heart." Lord Jesus I repent and am sorry for my sins forgive me. I forgive all who have offended me. Come into my heart and save me. I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and baptise me with your Holy Spirit. Fulfill your plan and purpose in my life. "I recommend you read John's Gospel especially chapter 3.Gbu.John 3v3v22,John 14v6.

If everyone caught speeding were fired, we would be experiencing a worse worker shortage than we have now. Everyone says treat him like everyone else. He got his ticket,his suspension, and tons of embarrassing. No one gets fired for speeding so why should he ? Cop or not, we’re all human.
I’m 22 years old but I’m a new driver (from Florida). I do my best to follow the road laws and I get really anxious/ annoyed when others on the road don’t do the same. The amount of times I’ve seen officers do the absolute dumbest things out of impatience and ego is astounding to me. The other day I saw an officer put on his siren to pass the red light and proceeded at normal speed because he just didn’t want to wait in traffic. Last week I saw two cops bypass traffic on a one lane road so they didn’t have to wait. It was ridiculous

Just be careful when getting upset with them for running lights to get through red lights but then turning them off. I don't believe they always go to calls with lights and sirens they could still have needed to get to a call fast but didn't need to run them the whole way there. I'm not positive about that but I don't think it's always just to get through a light for no reason.

My dad was a cop for 45 years. Unless you were doing something really stupid or had a light/tail light out, he didn't care if you were speeding unless it was 15+ over the limit. He did not care if you were a civilian or an officer. If you were speeding to the point where he's gonna pull you over, you're getting a ticket. He stopped his superiors 6 times during his career. He was a good cop. Spent the last 8 years of his career has the CLEO (sheriff) of his county. Once during the late 90's he stopped someone doing 95 in a 55. Once he learned what was going on, he gave them an escort to the hospital. The driver's passenger was in a car accident and was bleeding badly, and was fearing she lost the baby.

@@plutobars7700 Your words: "He was going over 90 mph in a 35 zone, that's why he got a ticket." Me: Not necessarily. Officer: "Well you know I don't care for him so I'm going to write..." Really? In very good probability he would not write up someone he liked. In all probability he was STOPPED because he was speeding, BUT he was ticketed because he wasn't liked. When the ticketing officer stopped the other there was no way of knowing who he was stopping.
That's a good chief, took the ticket without complaining, we all make mistakes, hope the chief is safe and going strong.
He was really frustrated, but still kept his composure
Atleast the chief wasn’t trying to get out

This was wholesome. The officer didn't turn a blind eye when he saw the law being broken by one of his own, and the chief deputy didn't make any threats or try and punish him for that.
The officer himself did the right thing, and I was impressed that the chief reacted so calmly and maturely.

Reckless driving is largely left to the officer’s discretion (in both charging them with it and how they testify against the suspect since their testimony is so vital), so no, a charge like this cannot be “full stop.” I will say that most would likely get that charge and serve at least some jail time in this scenario, however. (Also meaning they would likely lose their job). Additionally, I do have to completely disagree with your “higher standard” comment for several reasons, but that’s basically just an opinion
Atleast they hold each other accountable, instead of looking the other way.
Respect to the Chief Deputy for not abusing his position which I have seen in almost all other cases

Massive props both, but especially to the Cheif deputy for calmly accepting the ticket and reporting it to his sheriff instead of trying to use his position to weasel out of the ticket like so many others I've seen or threaten the lower ranking cop.
