The MAIN reason that a cop insists on having your license in his(or her) hand is so that they can hold it (and you) HOSTAGE while they sniff around for a way to generate revenue off of you knowing full well that if you do drive off claiming that your license was "stolen" from you or that you are being detained unlawfully....cops will then pull the "driving without a license" nonsense on you.
@@christinechambers8133 doesn't matter, they've already detained and searched both you and your vehicle for simply traveling with out any warrent, No leagle cause to do so. This in in violation of the 4th amendment.
Utter hypocrisy. How can law enforcement "require" you answer THEM when the person who is ACTUALLY in charge of enforcing the laws can't even answer basic questions? Makes me sick.
Jordinhooo3 They can't compel anyone to answer questions for free, that is slavery, your lawyer doesn't answer your questions for free neither should you.
Jordinhooo3 That assistant state attorney did a fantastic job of proving her utter worthlessness. Correction, a great job of proving she is nothing more than a government crony.
Jordinhooo3 Again, based on the many videos we've all seen, she exemplifies Florida law enforcement. If the cops have to hire legal consultants to help them understand simple English words used in law, citizens will always be in trouble.
Cobra I don't understand why valid information presented, readily avalabile and easily checked is not sufficient. Florida doesn't staple your driver's license for DUI's and there is no magical value conveyed by a plastic card. The cop will have to manually enter the information or verbally read it off anyway. Not rolling down your window or handing over a physical license doesn't allow drunk people to get away with breaking the law. If you are driving erratically that should be proof enough. The reason why people do this is because law enforcement gets cucked by their own actions (i.e. violating people's rights or killing them and getting away with it). I understand the need for DUI checkpoints, but sadly citizens need protection from their own protectors
If anyone ever needed proof that cops usually(but not always, as we know) behave better when they're being recorded, there you have it. "The reason why I told you to let them go is because those guys are recording."
There is a very deep seeded psychological explanation for law enforcement doing what they do. I find it ironic that military and police are praised by the general public even though those professions attract the highest percentage of psychopaths.
If the assistant state attorney on duty cannot tell you what the statute requires, who can? A lawyer advising the checkpoint officers tells citizens to read the statute for themselves? "I don't know, I don't know." Why is she even there?
That ASA at the end is clueless and worthless. Jeff is asking very simple questions about the fundamental basis of the checkpoint. Her response? "Herpaderp! I don't know why I'm here. Derp!"
Nice video. I wonder what would happen that each time a DUI checkpoint is set up, that about 100 people went through with the DUI Flyer. And, then continue rotating through it. It would bog down the checkpoint, and they may reconsider doing them.
Truly great and incredibly insightful video. Jeff is really going above and beyond to point out the hypocrisy, inconsistency and subversive techniques that law enforcement officers attempt to use against law abiding citizens. Thanks for all the hard work Jeff.
I just want to say thank you to Jeff and the guys testing this and also Warren from Fair DUI and anyone else involved for all he is doing for the citizens of the U.S. Thank you for standing up for our rights
To note: the titles of sections hold ZERO weight in court. They can call the section "Failure to pick your nose" but the text of the law says you must exhibit your license and it will be held up in court... and if you try to argue about the title you will be shot down quick because they carry no weight in court, they are not the text of the law itself.
Nothing in the leymans definition of "Produce" even implies that you must hand over the item in question, let alone say so outright. In point of fact, Webster prvides this definition, with this example sentence: (7)to bring forward; present to view or notice; exhibit: 'to produce one's credentials.' Which fits our premise that the law only says you must bring it out to show, not hand it over.
Florida law states that the ops order needs to be on-site. Also all DUI check points must have a signed letter from governor office stating all aspects of the check point. If this letter is not at the check point, then the check point is unlawful and invalid. I was taught this by my ADAs that taught our legal section in my academy class.
well in situation just as this when officers were in aware of a camera on the have on occasions busted out the window and forcefully removed the persons from there vehical
How can they force you to speak with them when some people don't even speak English? Unless they make a law requiring everyone to speak English, it doesn't seem right to force English speakers to have a conversation, while allowing foreign language speakers to drive off!
To answer another commenter's question, if a person is mute, or deaf, failure to comply with verbal orders will result in lethal force being used against the suspect, per police SOP.
Lethal force against people who fail to comply? Sounds like a great time to remember that its legal to resist an unlawful arrest with equal force, be it lethal or not.
rod michal Sadly, under extremely, and I mean extremely rare circumstances, would resisting an unlawful arrest be deemed 'legal' by our corrupt system.
Well i get what you mean but "legally" you are well within your rights. Now knowing how corrupt our system is and not having sething bad happen to you is another story altogether.sad thst ee seem to have slid back to olde english king and rotten gaurd days. I believe its nationwide ( id check first) that like in these open carry videos cops roll up l, guns drawn, even seen some threaten to blow the guys head off. You can legally resist with equal force. That means if a cop rolls up and threatens you with deadly f9rce, ummm thats why your carrying right? Ya youd better have some friends with you and more than one camera, be ready for gang back up and an all out street gunfight but thats what they are bringing this to. They are acting like state sponsered gang bangers and that isnt legal or right. Sounds crazy i know but its standing up to criminals that gets our freedom to not get arrested for following the law back. What sound more stupid ? Disclaimer : im not advocating shooting cops in any way shape or form, or any other activity that goes outside the law. Teehee
cops making things up as they go, and enforcing it under threat of death. also, assistant state attorney is pretty useless, isn't she? probably got the job because she's some bigwig's niece-in-law.
That's why she's an assistant. You don't think the actual attorney is gonna do all this bullshit do you, hell no, just let some subordinate take the heat.
Sobriety checkpoints are not authorized in Michigan, which is odd considering that it was a Michigan legal case (Michigan Dept. of State Police v. Sitz) that prompted the U.S. Supreme Court to carve out an exception for checkpoints. However, Michigan later outlawed checkpoints (see 506 N.W.2d 209 (Mich. 1993)). www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/496/444
Per Florida Law,,,,,ALL DUI CHECKPOINTS NEED TO HAVE A SIGNED LETTER FROM GOVERNOR OFFICE ONSITE AT CHECKPOIT LOCATION AND IT NEEDS TO DESCRIBE WHY THE CHECKPOINTS ARE NEEDED AND HAVE LOCATION, TIME FRAME AND PURPOSE WRITTEN IN LETTER. THIS IS FLORIDA LAW, THAT I LEARNED IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE ACADEMY FOR BEING A FLORIDA SHERIFF DEPUTY
I find it amazing every time our government officials refuse to answer questions that they, better than anyone else, should know the answers too. Unfortunately it seems that this is most often the case. People who do not understand this, have simply never asked the tough questions. "Thank you very not much."
***** Right, but because they cops and prosecutors don't know, the public is one that suffers. Their behavior is altered from their normal unlawful behavior by recording what they do as was so clearly showed. When not being filmed checkpoints do what they are intended to do. Allow local police, attorneys and courts to have their cash cow.
***** I was recently schooled by the Nebraska States Attorney's Office. They explained to me that they are not there to help me, but that they are there to protect the State from legal action from me. Well that explains a lot.
***** It is actually true. They have no powers over counties, cities, or townships. They only protect the State from litigation. If you need help, you gotta get a lawyer, even if it's against the State, and most especially then.
***** Wise man. Thank you. I am now all pissed off, all over again. Time to take the camera to Lincoln. From the AGO website. Major Duties 1. Uphold and defend the Constitution and laws of the State of Nebraska;
Man I salute Jeff he's a good and positive role model. Flexing his rights but at the same time being respectful to the Officers. I love his work and always look forward to his videos. I wish he could do a version where instead of it being a white guy driving let it be a black guy driving to see the reaction and the response it would receive
They are so magnanimous in letting you go and not playing your games. THEY are the ones playing games by misinterpreting the law and threatening arrest on obstruction in violation of the law.
Ahh ... the issue of whether a law enforcement officer is issuing a request or a legal order. Of course, if I asked a LEO if he was making a request or a legal order, the LEO can legally lie. Interesting conundrum. Thanks for posting the video and thanks for your efforts. Cheers.
Don't play their game of upholding the law....his supervisor needs to be informed. That's a serious offense. Doing dumb shit under color of law seems to be their game. What kind of oath are they giving nowadays. Ask the State attorney what she thinks he mean't by saying "don't play their game".
You'll notice the language is ambiguous because saying relinquish, surrender or hand over your license is a 4th amendment violation. Putting that in writing on a statue would be an admission of a rights violation base on penalty of law contradictory to the constitution. To be secure in your person, property , effects and papers from unreasonable searches and seizures. So you understand the states attorneys reluctance to make a statement or comment on the subjects brought up about the statute.
Shes a state attorney. Of course she wouldn't give citizens any helpful answers that would prevent officers from finding a reason to drag them into court and increase her conviction rates.
Seems to me in Georgia when you sign the paper, used to photocopy to the license...there is small print that reads something like.....signature is agreement to surrender upon request by law enforcement...or something contractual like that.
Just curious as to whether you know if any such legal defense is permissible in the States of West Virginia, Virginia and Pennsylvania. (The three States I travel in 99% of the time.) Or is there anyone working on something similar? You do a fine job! Thanks.
The Fifth Amendment (Amendment V) to the United States Constitution is part of the Bill of Rights and protects a person from being compelled to be a witness against himself in a criminal case. "Pleading the Fifth" is a colloquial term for invoking the privilege that allows a witness to decline to answer questions where the answers might incriminate him, and generally without having to suffer a penalty for asserting the privilege. A defendant cannot be compelled to become a witness at his own trial. You either believe in your "Rights"or you don't. Its very simple.
Jeff hope this helps. Black's Law 2nd Ed PRODUCE: To bring forward; to show or exhibit; to bring into view or notice; as, to produce books or writings at a trial In obedience to a subpccna duces tecum. Nowhere does it say "TO HAND OVER"! By showing or exhibiting you are producing said documents. Hope this helps.
@hounoryouroathcivilrights investigations. I have had a great night going down the rabbit hole of your content . I do miss the old timer you used to roll with. He was also very wise and articulate. Thanks your doing what you do Jeff
The shifting sands of law enforcement. While protecting the public at large, It seems to be okay to violate a few rights here and there! The assistant D.A. was out there to what? Make sure no rights were violated. I think not. She was there to make sure rights were violated properly! In accordance with the law as written!
To the attorney at that end. Subsection 4 states non criminal got that. What is to keep them from arresting on obstruction? Granted it most likely will be dropped, squashed, or found not guilty, yet they could and do arrest for obstruction in these situations. Note in this instance the word they doesn't mean the agency on the video.
Really? You don't think the 2 cameras rolling inside the car and the 1 outside of the car had ANYTHING to do with the officer letting those guys go? It was CLEAR that this guy wasn't drunk and that they were trying to film a confrontation... How about a little bit of secrecy next time?
Black's 9th It says "present, adj. (14c) 1. Now existing; at hand . 2. Being considered; now under discussion . 3. In attendance; not elsewhere " OR "submit, vb. To end the presentation of further evidence in (a case) and tender a legal position for decision " my thoughts are: The law says OR not and/or,so it is one OR the other not both.Present OR Submit not both.Have your license at hand in your possession OR end showing any at hand right to property as evidence for an offer to contract.
The language of the statute, 322.15, was amended from "display" to "present or submit" in 2014 which clears up if a driver must hand their DL to an officer when requested. Warren avoids the word "SUBMIT" which by definition means, "to yield or surrender"
Also keep in mind that all the language that you read in the statue are TERMS not words and you will ONLY ONLY get clarity when you check the definition of the terms in a Law Dictionary.
The Assistant State Attorney say's she's there because she's interested in the 4th amendment(right to be secure in your papers and effects) yet she has No Problem with the cops Demanding ID(Papers). Perhaps she was only there to see how many sheep would allow them to trample their rights and hand over ID even though it's meant to be an Drink Driving check point. It's not a traffic stop so no ID is required! If it was Me I'd hold a sign that also read, "do you have reasonable articulable suspicion that I have been drinking?" "If Not, why the hell have you made me pull over?"(Rhetorical, Officer) "Am I detained or Free to Go?". Lastly when a cop say's to another cop, we let them go because they were recording us. You would think the cop would ask, "Why, are we doing something shady?"
What makes the public servants think that you're operating under license at that time? What law states that a [wo]man is required to have a license to move from point a to point b?
This is how it works in Arizona, ARS 28-3169 says that "a licensee shall display the license". I would think the display requirement would be met when the license is put in the window. ARS 28-1595 says the driver has to "exhibit" the license. What's even more interesting is that if you fail to exhibit your license, that's somewhat ok as long as you provide your name, date of birth, address, sex, weight, height, eye color, and signature. I would suppose that a person could just write all of that on a piece of paper and display that as an alternative on the outside of the vehicle. You would have to be willing to go to court and show your actual license later if the police wrote you a ticket. 28-1595. Failure to stop or provide driver license or evidence of identity; violation; classification A. The operator of a motor vehicle who knowingly fails or refuses to bring the operator's motor vehicle to a stop after being given a visual or audible signal or instruction by a peace officer or duly authorized agent of a traffic enforcement agency is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor. B. After stopping as required by subsection A of this section, the operator of a motor vehicle who fails or refuses to exhibit the operator's driver license as required by section 28-3169 or a driver who is not licensed and who fails or refuses to provide evidence of the driver's identity on request is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor. The evidence of identity that is presented shall contain all of the following information: 1. The driver's full name. 2. The driver's date of birth. 3. The driver's residence address. 4. A brief physical description of the driver, including the driver's sex, weight, height and eye and hair color. 5. The driver's signature. C. A person other than the driver of a motor vehicle who fails or refuses to provide evidence of the person's identity to a peace officer or a duly authorized agent of a traffic enforcement agency on request, when such officer or agent has reasonable cause to believe the person has committed a violation of this title, is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor. D. A peace officer or duly authorized agent of a traffic enforcement agency may give the signal or instruction required by subsection A of this section by hand, emergency light, voice, whistle or siren. E. A person shall not be convicted of a violation of subsection B of this section if the person provided evidence of identity required by subsection B, paragraphs 1 through 5 of this section and produces to the court a legible driver license or an authorized duplicate of the license that is issued to the person and that was valid at the time the violation of subsection B of this section occurred.
If you pay attention at around 5:00- 5:46 they explain how the police skewer words in their favor specifically the word produce in reference to a drivers license, and how it must be presented. The point the film people are trying to make, and this is something I have commented about many times on similar videos about police procedure, and knowing your rights, pay attention POLICE CAN, AND DO LIE TO YOU. Cops will tell you that you have to follow the rules as they explain them, and often they are not being honest, they will attempt to trick you into admitting guilt when you are innocent, and other tactics to get you to comply with what they want.
I have never gone through a DUI checkpoint as a driver or a passenger. I have not driven a car since 1998. it is incredibly easy renewing my license. online by phone I'm good until 2022.
This is great, When I go drinking all night and can barley walk to my car; I am going to put this note in my window and I will get away with DUI, awesome!!!!
oh yeah the old barley walk. Beer will do that to ya. If those guys had appeared the slightest bit drunk they would not have drove off from the checkpoint, so don't get any stupid ideas.
The MAIN reason that a cop insists on having your license in his(or her) hand is so that they can hold it (and you) HOSTAGE while they sniff around for a way to generate revenue off of you knowing full well that if you do drive off claiming that your license was "stolen" from you or that you are being detained unlawfully....cops will then pull the "driving without a license" nonsense on you.
Do they check for warrants?

Cop: Your eyes are bloodshot. Have you been drinking?
Driver: Your eyes are glazed. Have you been eating donuts?
The moral of the story is, when they see cameras holding them accountable, they act differently. This is why I have front and rear dash cams.
According to "police law", Katherin Artman's refusal to the answer the question must mean she is hiding something illegal.
Thank you very much for the informative and educational video Mr. Gray. Please keep up the good work on the behalf of the American people.

"Pleading the Fifth" is a colloquial term for invoking the privilege that allows a witness to decline to answer questions where the answers might incriminate him, and generally without having to suffer a penalty for asserting the privilege. A defendant cannot be compelled to become a witness at his own trial.
You either believe in your "Rights"or you don't. Its very simple.
Jeff hope this helps.
Black's Law 2nd Ed
PRODUCE:
To bring forward; to show or exhibit; to bring into view or notice; as, to produce books or writings at a trial In obedience to a subpccna duces tecum.
Nowhere does it say "TO HAND OVER"! By showing or exhibiting you are producing said documents. Hope this helps.
Lady cop "we just changed the law" LOL hesitates stutters, looks down, all signs of LYING FAIL!!
@hounoryouroathcivilrights investigations. I have had a great night going down the rabbit hole of your content . I do miss the old timer you used to roll with. He was also very wise and articulate. Thanks your doing what you do Jeff
Another great video my brother😊
How's the digital proof alternative under 322.032 coming along?
Nice Work! 👍🏻, Thanks!
The shifting sands of law enforcement. While protecting the public at large, It seems to be okay to violate a few rights here and there! The assistant D.A. was out there to what? Make sure no rights were violated. I think not. She was there to make sure rights were violated properly! In accordance with the law as written!
To the attorney at that end. Subsection 4 states non criminal got that. What is to keep them from arresting on obstruction? Granted it most likely will be dropped, squashed, or found not guilty, yet they could and do arrest for obstruction in these situations. Note in this instance the word they doesn't mean the agency on the video.
Great video and great audit very informative!
Don't play the police game people, you have god given and constitutional legal right to not do what they say . Period
Really? You don't think the 2 cameras rolling inside the car and the 1 outside of the car had ANYTHING to do with the officer letting those guys go? It was CLEAR that this guy wasn't drunk and that they were trying to film a confrontation... How about a little bit of secrecy next time?
MarzMiller
You are totally right. The fact they said that is why had nothing to do with it. Moron.
Black's 9th It says "present, adj. (14c) 1. Now existing; at hand . 2. Being considered; now under discussion . 3. In attendance; not elsewhere " OR "submit, vb. To end the presentation of further evidence in (a case) and tender a legal position for decision " my thoughts are: The law says OR not and/or,so it is one OR the other not both.Present OR Submit not both.Have your license at hand in your possession OR end showing any at hand right to property as evidence for an offer to contract.
WOW....awesome
Please come and try this in NC and see where you spend the night.
The language of the statute, 322.15, was amended from "display" to "present or submit" in 2014 which clears up if a driver must hand their DL to an officer when requested.
Warren avoids the word "SUBMIT" which by definition means, "to yield or surrender"
He said the penalty still says "display"
@7:40"...I told you to let them go...because those guys were recording." Always film law enforcement, always refuse to turn off, or delete.
Come on women. If you want positions of power than be able to say more than I don't know and am basically getting paid to be incompetent.
Also keep in mind that all the language that you read in the statue are TERMS not words and you will ONLY ONLY get clarity when you check the definition of the terms in a Law Dictionary.
Awesome!!!
The Assistant State Attorney say's she's there because she's interested in the 4th amendment(right to be secure in your papers and effects) yet she has No Problem with the cops Demanding ID(Papers). Perhaps she was only there to see how many sheep would allow them to trample their rights and hand over ID even though it's meant to be an Drink Driving check point. It's not a traffic stop so no ID is required! If it was Me I'd hold a sign that also read, "do you have reasonable articulable suspicion that I have been drinking?" "If Not, why the hell have you made me pull over?"(Rhetorical, Officer) "Am I detained or Free to Go?". Lastly when a cop say's to another cop, we let them go because they were recording us. You would think the cop would ask, "Why, are we doing something shady?"
Thanks for your hard work
Great job!
Giving the licence is a form of consent and creating a joinder and gives more power for further contact.....
excellent video!
its says submit upon the demand of a law enforcement officer. so if a cop demands it, you must 'submit' it which means hand it to them.
What makes the public servants think that you're operating under license at that time? What law states that a [wo]man is required to have a license to move from point a to point b?
This is how it works in Arizona, ARS 28-3169 says that "a licensee shall display the license". I would think the display requirement would be met when the license is put in the window.
ARS 28-1595 says the driver has to "exhibit" the license. What's even more interesting is that if you fail to exhibit your license, that's somewhat ok as long as you provide your name, date of birth, address, sex, weight, height, eye color, and signature. I would suppose that a person could just write all of that on a piece of paper and display that as an alternative on the outside of the vehicle. You would have to be willing to go to court and show your actual license later if the police wrote you a ticket.
28-1595. Failure to stop or provide driver license or evidence of identity; violation; classification
A. The operator of a motor vehicle who knowingly fails or refuses to bring the operator's motor vehicle to a stop after being given a visual or audible signal or instruction by a peace officer or duly authorized agent of a traffic enforcement agency is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor.

After stopping as required by subsection A of this section, the operator of a motor vehicle who fails or refuses to exhibit the operator's driver license as required by section 28-3169 or a driver who is not licensed and who fails or refuses to provide evidence of the driver's identity on request is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor. The evidence of identity that is presented shall contain all of the following information:
1. The driver's full name.
2. The driver's date of birth.
3. The driver's residence address.
4. A brief physical description of the driver, including the driver's sex, weight, height and eye and hair color.
5. The driver's signature.
C. A person other than the driver of a motor vehicle who fails or refuses to provide evidence of the person's identity to a peace officer or a duly authorized agent of a traffic enforcement agency on request, when such officer or agent has reasonable cause to believe the person has committed a violation of this title, is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor.
D. A peace officer or duly authorized agent of a traffic enforcement agency may give the signal or instruction required by subsection A of this section by hand, emergency light, voice, whistle or siren.
E. A person shall not be convicted of a violation of subsection B of this section if the person provided evidence of identity required by subsection B, paragraphs 1 through 5 of this section and produces to the court a legible driver license or an authorized duplicate of the license that is issued to the person and that was valid at the time the violation of subsection B of this section occurred.
If you pay attention at around 5:00- 5:46 they explain how the police skewer words in their favor specifically the word produce in reference to a drivers license, and how it must be presented. The point the film people are trying to make, and this is something I have commented about many times on similar videos about police procedure, and knowing your rights, pay attention POLICE CAN, AND DO LIE TO YOU. Cops will tell you that you have to follow the rules as they explain them, and often they are not being honest, they will attempt to trick you into admitting guilt when you are innocent, and other tactics to get you to comply with what they want.
I have never gone through a DUI checkpoint as a driver or a passenger. I have not driven a car since 1998. it is incredibly easy renewing my license. online by phone I'm good until 2022.
Terrific work fellas !!!
This is great, When I go drinking all night and can barley walk to my car; I am going to put this note in my window and I will get away with DUI, awesome!!!!
Why would you purposely get intoxicated and go drive?
yeah!!!!
Yeah, I picked up on that... that's why I replied with dry sarcasm. It just got lost on you.
oh yeah the old barley walk. Beer will do that to ya. If those guys had appeared the slightest bit drunk they would not have drove off from the checkpoint, so don't get any stupid ideas.
Rick Riccar I don’t think that’s the point.
ALSO IF THIS LETTER IS NOT ONSITE,,,,THEN THE CHECKPOINTS ARE IN VALID
Not Going to Answer That Question means the County attorney is remaining silent! She knows they are WRONG.
+NETWizzJbirk I found it odd because her job is to interpret the law. If she can't then who can?
This is a really good video.
