"here we see a male police car preform its mating dance for on looking cars"
This deserves more likes 😂
LMAOO
And that kid's is how I met your mother
HAHA!!!!!!!!!!
2:28 here’s we have the alpha police car (all white) also preforming it’s mating. He has a higher chance of success due to his higher rank.
I thought he was just keeping his tires hot until the caution flag is lifted.
Lmfaooooo
he was probably screaming in the radio for the safety car to go faster.
I never saw a state trooper do this until today. I was like "What, is he drunk?"...no, he was trying to warn everyone that there was debris in the road. I was ahead of him and wondering "What the heck, did someone hijack that trooper's vehicle?!" at first. The things you learn!
I didn't see any debris
@@raulruizlopez3384 I was not referring to the video but my own personal experience.
@@ART1984able oh I see
Yeah I remember the first time I saw this my buddy was driving and I was burning in the passenger seat. I was hella paranoid.
Literally just wrote you exact feelings on another post. "Just literally went through this and sent me and my daughter into a panic attack. Thinking I was getting pulled over. Thinking they were drunk or car was stolen. Then when the went into circles. Parked the car sideways. Thought they were about to start shooting. People got PTSD and anxiety out here. Its me.. I'm people!! Why the fucc is this ok?? The cars were already off to the side!!! She wasn't going slow.. she was moving fast AF."
I remember the first time I saw CHP do this on the freeway in L.A., I was driving a school bus from the Central Valley on a field trip to universal studios with high school students on board. I immediately turned on my hazard lights and proceeded to drive slowly and cautiously until said caution was over… needless to say we were a little delayed to our destination but my passengers weren’t too concerned, they thought what the officer was doing was cool! Oh, and this took place almost 30 years ago!
Bro 💀💀💀
I have been near the front of one of these Traffic Breaks, and once witnessed a *COMPLETE BLOCKHEAD* pass everyone on the shoulder at 80+ MPH and then fly past the CHP Crown Victoria conducting the Traffic Break.
*_THE BLOCKHEAD WAS IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER._* 👏🤣
Yeah but if someone got pulled over I would do the same thing right after them. they can only pull one person over at a time.
@@lol-od4ip There's a reason why the CHP is conducting these traffic breaks, usually they are done IN YOUR INTEREST as there might be a crash scene ahead so to slow YOU down and avoid a pileup. So...Go ahead and speed down to highway to hell if you like. Just don't whine and expect help at the end of the day.
@@lol-od4ip yep...then when they catch you ... well its gonna hurt. But go ahead big boy try your luck.
@@lol-od4ip You’re very wrong about that, evasion is a felony and they will call you out on the radio so other units chase you down and arrest you
I love seeing this. Only when I moved to California did I come into this though. Just a really cool maneuver to control traffic.
It’s also in Arizona, I saw two cop cars doing this weaving in and out with each other
This happened to me a couple months ago on my way to work in Dana Point... I was like wtf this dude doing I thought maybe he’s gonna quit later today he just wanted to have some fun.... he was definitely going faster than the cop here... eventually he stopped and picked up a shredded tire in the road 😂
3:22 Tahoe turned their hazards on and thought they were getting pulled lmao
😂
Its not a Tahoe its a ford
@@leigh3288 you are as knowledgeable as a rock, it legit has a chevy logo on the front my dude
@@SovaNot1 he's talking about the ford police vehicle
Please read the original post for the love of god. no one here but you are talking about the fpiu, and if Paolo was talking about the police car, he needs to reassess the comment.
I've seen a version of this in the UK where the police car had a digital sign on the back which said DO NOT PASS ME. The traffic slowed down just like in this clip but when it was over the driver of the police car did not have to get out and throw up!
Hahaha
There's a double digit percentage of the population in CA that doesn't speak English. An even higher percentage that drive unlicensed. Most of those people are in San Diego. That simply wouldn't work here.
I love when they do traffic breaks.
it does look cool. but what are they supposed to be doing here. are they just making traffic worse or is there a purpose?
@@emva9063 I presume you are kidding but in the case you are not, the purpose is to slow and/or stop traffic either to remove a road hazard or an accident. CHP officers will often times get dispatched to assist tow trucks and other officers that are in compromising locations, so this maneuver helps to ensure the traversing public and all others involved are safe. In the same breath if they are called to remove furniture, construction cones or anything unsafe in the travel lanes they will do a traffic break for themselves to remove hazards. Hopefully my explanation will help you better understand the purpose of traffic breaks.
@@emva9063 one officer will do the traffic break while another up ahead gets the debris off the road.
Weirdo
@@emva9063Turn in your license if you are that retarded.
We had one incident on the 405 where a CHP was doing this but one driver kept getting closer and closer to the point the CHP used its PA Speaker and pulled him over after the maneuver was done.
You can't fix stupid.
What great training for the arms, even with power steering!
Beautifully executed traffic break
"9 year old steals cop car"
Wha ha! Good one! :)
I finally realise why police cruisers rack up so many miles
I called 911 to report a stolen hwy patrol vehicle yesterday when I saw this in LA. I think that was the funniest, best call the operator will ever receive on the job.
Im going to do that next time I see this. Being stupid ain’t against the law
@@floormop6672 lmfaooo fax
I learned to drive in So Cal and the CHP are the BEST. If you can drive the Ventura, the Hollywood, the Long Beach Freeway, etc....you can Drive.
Interesting. Never seen or heard of this before.
Almost like a NASCAR pace car during a yellow caution on the race track.
I have never seen or heard of this being done, butthe reason makes sense to me. Well done.
All my RESPECT to the law enforcement officers that risk their lives every day 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Being a police officer is actually one of the safest blue collar jobs you can have. In 2019 89 police died making the deaths per 100,000 11.1, to put that into perspective 410 farmers died from work related injuries the same year, at a fatality rate of 19.4 out of every 100,000. The most dangerous job is construction which had over 5,000 work fatalities in 2019.
@@Nether2342 Good for you 👍🏾
Loser
This is how traffic is truly created
I know it’s a 5 year old video but damn that an awesome zoom, what kind of camera did you shoot this with 👍🏼👍🏼
Sony HDR-CX675.
Squad 37 ....Thank you , Awesome camera and content!!!! , I subscribed
I love highway, big city, traffic, it makes me feel live not alone
This is the first time I've seen a scene like this.
Great job! Very well done! 👍👍
5:27 the people exiting is probably like "Thank God"
*Why is this so satisfying to watch* ............
It’s like being the pace car, and the nascars warming up their tires behind it, all in one.
This happened to me once when I was in West Virginia. I was like "WTF is this cop doing!??" lol
I was in the front row of one of these one time on the 880 in Oakland. 1 squad car and one motorcycle cop shut down all 4-5 lanes to a complete stop.
No idea what had happened. Prob. something minor as 880 30yrs ago was narrow and fast with on ramps that were WAY too short.
When traffic is good and they need to create traffic
They're slowing traffic down because their is a large accident on the side and they don't want any more injuries.
@@sggdopeyz5346 they did that in my city on one of the highways. High congestion rate and really fast drivers doing 90 to 100 on the highways. Welcome to New York.
@@sggdopeyz5346 it's a joke
@@sggdopeyz5346 umm no, its so they dnt have to close down roads...
I've seen this on the 5 by camp Pendleton...cops was going at least 80 swerving like that...but now I understand how traffic starts..
I actually witnessed this for the first time in Philadelphia. A Pennsylvania State Trooper was on I-95 south, just before the airport.. I assumed it was due to the accident which occurred, in order to slow traffic before reaching the scene...
This is such a great video!!!!!
In the UK rolling road blocks are either done by Police or Highway traffic agency. Warning lights are put on by lead vehicle with follow me or do not pass matrix signs displayed. The lead vehicle does an initial zig zag then holds position in center lane ahead of rolling traffic.
in Germany it depends on how many lanes the highway has and if the traffic behind the police car is rather light or heavy. In light traffic conditions they'd make further zig zags across the highway if someone didn't see them, and on the wider highways it's normal that they keep on doing ig zags across all lanes until they all have slowed down and stay behind
I’ve used this technique for years….didn’t know there was term for it
Trooper: Uh supervisor, Can I stop, I'm going to puke | Supervisor: Sure! *starts swerving*
I do this very often on the german Autobahn to control the speed of the other drivers. Makes me proud.
I really REALLY hope you're a police officer
@@thecasualcontentconsumer5608 This is the way to produce traffic jams scientifically. But it's more difficult to do this professionally with Autobahn speed. (e.g. > 250 km/h / 155 miles/h)
Lol
Allright, we've got a drunk driver in a stolen police officer car from the CHP and he's driving a lot of S-lines on the highway.
Funny how people ACTUALLY call 911 and report the officer as drunk driving or reckless driving. It's really funny
People behind the cop car:
*T h e h e l l i s d i s d u d e d o i n ' ?*
00:30 DONT YOU DARE SON!!!
What, the safety car also needs to heat up their tyres now?
Not sure if that was really necessary for a flatbed and 1 cop on the exit ramp.....
Maybe that flatbed was loading a stalled car in the middle lane
I've only seen this maneuver done in San Diego. Any other cities?
The Officer at 4:35 is having some fun with it haha
I can feel my arms hurting just looking at this.
Policia da América do Norte sempre eficiente 👏👏
Huh
Who are you??
Is this the 500 race to see how many vehicles to stay in line wow this is so cool
In the UK our police officers or sometimes highway patrol they will swerve between lanes but not quite like they are but more smoothly and they'll put the light up sign in the back to say stop and anything behind them has to slow down until a eventual stop.
So they swerve to the point where *the thing is going on, on the freeway so the drivers can see* then move on?
Here in Canada they just set up road blocks with two large police trucks and everyone pretty much stops.
Well most Canadians are smart unlike Americans 😆
And then everybody joined and the whole boatload of commuters had a great damn time. The end.
Why do you Americans have highways with so many lanes? Our Highways normally have 2 lanes on each side, and the most lanes that we have are 4 or 5 on each side I believe, which is pretty rare here in Germany.
to fit the obese people because they have huge cars.
sam Chab 😂
@@leuart_ Because to support Rush hour traffic. US population 325 million and North American cities are big and spread out. If had 2 lanes nobody would get to work on time cause most people live in suburbs.
I've never seen this done. I had no idea such a thing existed.
Idk about anyone else but the CHP Siren is probably one of my favorites along side the Federal Signal Touchmaster Delta
I saw this maneuver on I55 south of Chicago to slow very heavy traffic down to a full stop so cars involved in a chain reaction wreck in the left lane could be driven off in a line at a right exit. That involved multiple cruisers.
Police cars in other countries have a digital sign on top of it that says "stay back" or "do not follow" which would be helpful in informing drivers in such a case
or they do the exact same thing like in the video
American drivers need a sign saying: Stay Back, Don't follow; Don't hit me; I'm doing this to for you; GET OFF YOUR PHONE!!!
So thats what happens all the way at the front and the whole time i wondered what the issue with traffic is 😂
Could me many different things. An accident with rates blocked, debris in the road. They could be trying to recover a large vehicle, shifting traffic for construction or whatever. It's not done for no reason as many idiot drivers assume.
do you recall when you were a kid .... trying to block everyone passing through the doorway
Well if nothing else.... The Christmas Tree's on wheels look nice!
That looks fun for cops
Crazy. In Europe, the police will display "do not overtake" or "keep back" and everybody stays back. In California people try to pass the police car even though it clearly tries to slow down all lanes with physical force. Even though I don't get why the four lanes to LA had to be slowed down.
There was an accident site being cleared to ensure the safety of the workers and drivers the officer initiated a traffic break
Never seen such maneuvers before.
You know he's having fun.
So that's how traffic happens.
I understand in these instances, time is of the essence; whether that is to clear a disabled vehicle from the highway, or road debri so the officer up ahead can run into the road safely to remove it. However, what would be most useful in these situations is a vehicle or DOT vehicle equipped with a message board reading something like DO NOT PASS ME or something of the like.
Sometimes they can’t get them out in time
what is the brand and model of siren?
I live in New Orleans and saw NOPD doing this on I10
They do this to either slow down ongoing pursuits, or to keep traffic out of the way for road crews to set up, or to keep traffic from getting in the way of a crash
This is the wrong comment
That guy about to exit...
Police said, NOT TODAY!
Damn it is awesome... Professional officer can be
The cop is just warming up his tires for a police chase.
NGL, this looks really fun
JDM guys: hey mom I wanna be a cop now
By this theyasdured the vehicle speed limit in that road while still trafgic moving. The police was anyicipating some issues / cleatfar ahead of that point for a span of time.
Looks like it was a car crash and they slowed it down so people wouldn’t have to see a dead body being moved into an ambulance
5:05 I like how he goes over to slow the red car too.
CHP officer is like "NO, NO, NO! YOU STAY BACK THERE WITH THE REST OF THE CARS"
first time in America: this cop is freaking crazy, man!
Which version of LSPDFR is this?
That looks like so much fun
Man imagine him driving without power steering.
That is in mission valley.
They should haved radio controlled barricades onto their on ramps as liked we do haved on I-94 in Wisconsin. They do send out a signal and all the gates they wish do come down. Then when do we get blizzards or bad accidents or chasing just they do shut off new traffic to get on.
Safety car deployed and oddly it is the only one keeping its tyres warm. 😬
nice catch what device did you use?
Thank you. The camcorder I used when I shot this video was a Sony HDR-CX675.
@@Squad37 is CX675 a decent camera to shoot first responder videos? How does it feel?
It got the job done. It had a good feel to it.
this reminds me of a collie rounding up cattle lol
All of that over an accident investigation on the shoulder of the exit ramp ? Could’ve just brought out some attenuators and dump trucks and just blocked off the right hand exit lane ?
Nice!
Traffic but they need to keep the highway safe cause there is to many cars
From San Diego Sheriff's office highway patrol
He was trying to dodge the sniper in the clocktower.
Can't even imagine the amount of motion sickness I will get-
Lol if you see cops swearing in California it means we got big trouble ahead!
I never knew this was a thing, but i dont live in an area that has 40M people thankfully.
Best place to learn driving
I didn’t see him use his blinker
Anybody knows what's the purpose of that ?
To slow down traffic, could be a pursuit up ahead, car crashes, animal on the road, pretty much anything that could endanger traffic can be a cause of one.
Plot twist: he's just playing games on his smartphone.
the second guy just seemed like he wasn't into it as much as the others
This is really interesting. Created a traffic jam to calm the flow for safety.
Can someone explain what is going on here to me?
They slow down the traffic usually so up ahead dot can set up road work in a few lanes
