I thought cops were only supposed to ram a vehicle if the driver is putting others in danger or being evasive?

2024 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X in Thunderstorm Gray from Doral Volkswagen. He put down $15,000, traded in a 2012 Ford Focus, and financed the remainder of the $61,230 purchase price through the dealer.
The real crime of the story.

Why did the cop ram him? Was he fleeing? There should be a lawsuit for that too, after a couple chiropractor visits.

$75k for a 1/2 ton pickup truck?
I don’t understand how a rational human being could think that is ever a good deal.

Was Flock involved in locating the truck, or was it LoJack?

Gave him his money back but also already sold his trade in. Was literally left carless

Guys he didn’t pay $75k for the vehicle. The total purchase price was $61,230

For what they did to him 50k is not enough and I’m not a fan of bs lawsuits.
Yeah, at very least cover the total financing price for a comparable truck + legal fees.
Maybe throw in that the owner of the dealership has to use that Ford Focus as his daily driver for a year.
Is the dealership on the hook for the wasted taxpayer hours, towing bills ect for making the false theft report?

He should get his pick of any car on the lot or any Affiliated dealer no matter the relative cost of the car for all the shite that he's been put through

He’s daydreaming about how many trucks he can buy after he sues the everliving hell out of them

Doral VW gave him his money back. I don't know what they did with the trade in. I guess they gave back that as well. they tried to get him to go thru arbitration to resolve it. He sued them for $50k.
Should have fixed the damaged ride for him for free, paid off the rest of the vehicle AND gave him $50k for his troubles.

That makes my blood boil, dealership should be Gotham a new truck free of charge and issuing public apologies

Ramming a stolen vehicle you’re trying to recover doesn’t make sense to me kind of like shooting someone so they don’t commit suicide.
The government has ZERO respect for property and rights of citizens. Tail is wagging the fricking dog.

I think he would have been good with this. It seems like taking care of him would have been cheaper than the legal fees and bad publicity.
Because of the way they treated this guy after their mistakes, I wouldn't buy anything from them if I lived there.

The real question is why was the detective, who is left handed, wearing his watch on his left hand? Something is afoot.

The video maker keeps telling us how that happens - it’s his DREAM truck.

Because you’re accustomed to seeing YouTube videos of people losing their shite regardless of rightly or wrongly being arrested.
Mature adults who know they did nothing wrong generally don’t throw tantrums.

50k? These days, they better add a few extra zeros plus a brand new ride.
Sorry, but no love lost for these jackasses. He wasn't "profiled". He was illegally detained. Plus, harassed.
I thought the Broward county sheriff had things under wraps out there. Let's hear his comedic stand up on this one.
