Definitely doesn’t look like he was drug at all. His hat is visible the whole time including before Scottie pulled up.

But for anyone else with a clean record they would just get reckless driving and some sort of pretrial diversion like an online class and no arr...

My parents retired in their mid 40s. They traveled around the country and volunteered at state parks. They didn't regret it.
