How do you not know what a traffic break is

Tbh I’ve never seen or heard of this before, but I wouldn’t try to pass. 1 bc it’s a cop & 2 bc it wouldn’t be safe to try

Exactly! It’s just common sense to not pass

He's special. He has to be somewhere. Fuckin' idiot.

The audacity

I’ve never seen this before. WTF is he doing?

@Lead_Flinger Is this not a thing everywhere?

I’ve never seen it. Around here they block lanes they completely block the interstate and direct traffic off the highway.

@Lead_Flinger They’ll do that too but after traffic is unblocked they will do this

@Lead_Flinger Are they deliberately trying to start traffic? I don’t understand what’s happening. @grok little help?

@washghost1 @Lead_Flinger That's a traffic break. Police weave across lanes with lights on to slow or stop traffic behind them, creating a safe gap ahead for clearing hazards like accidents, debris, or stalled vehicles. It's a standard safety tactic.

In 30 years of driving, I’ve never seen or heard of whatever this cop is doing.

Low IQ strikes again.

lol shocking how many people have never encountered this before in this thread

Yeah I’m surprised

@RustyBulletH0le I’ve seen this. It still it stupid for the cops to do. It causes people to be late for important things

@washghost1 You should just be able to drive through 3 car accidents because it may inconvenience you, I agree

@washghost1 I didn’t say that obviously

@washghost1 Do you believe cops do this because they feel like pissing you off that day?

Cops swerving in front of everyone on the highway while cars patiently wait behind him… Sub-saharan brain “what’s he doing? Hmmm, I guess it’s not important so I’ll just go ahead of everyone else.”

he thought it was a good idea to upload the video lol

“Oh this cop is clearly doing something to stop me from passing, I better pass him” take his license away.

I can't bet a large amount of money that over 75% of drivers out on the road do not know what a traffic break is.

Don't get me wrong I hate black people but I had this happen to me once and I was confused because I thought maybe the cops were just looking for something on the side of the road. Of course I didn't try to pass them because I'm not a chimpanzee.

Simple: you’ve never seen one Too many cops like to make up procedures & get pissed when people don’t read their minds regarding their intentions

I've never heard of one, but I wouldn't pass a cop car with it's lights on doing that.

I didn’t know what a “traffic break” is. Never heard of one. But, I’m smart enough to know not to try and pass a LEO - with lights on - especially when they’re driving like that.

Never heard what it was called but I’ve seen it a number of times

I only knew what it was called because I was in one before and had to look it up to find out exactly why he was doing it

So ifnyou see a cop zig zagging on a freeway. it be best to get the fuck off. especially if you drive like you want/need to be from point A to point B. hop on the next edit ramp and keep going on ahead of it or alter your route.🤣

The first time I ever encountered this as a fairly new driver I was definitely confused but at that point common sense kicks in and you just slow down like everyone else and assume there is a legitimate reason. That of course assumes you have common sense…

I have no idea what that is I do not remember learning about that in traffic school or have experienced that in real life. Regardless of that, the cop is a complete asshole for not explaining what he's doing

Best approach is to give the cop an attitude and threaten him when you don’t get your way.

Have had my license for 40 years. Never seen this. Never heard of this. This is not a thing covered in IL driver's handbook.

The dope had to have posted this himself showing fukin stupid he is

Regular occurrence on Southern California Interstates. Seen it twice this past week.. done to slow and/or stop traffic due to a hazard further ahead and prevent additional casualties from occurring.

I lived in California, Florida, Arizona traveled this country four times. I have never seen that.

this isn’t on the drivers tests (should be) but common sense should tell you if EVERYBODY ELSE STOPPED….YOUUUUU STOP

What sort of idiot cannot work it out. All other traffic seems to have worked it out. Douche bag

sorry but why would u try to drive past a police car doing that 😭😭😭😭😭😭 like obviously it’s for a reason just wait

black people... always the self-proclaimed victim

How stupid can you get ?

Everyone in these comments backing the cop.... the cop was driving like an idiot there is zero reason to drive like that on the freeway. Period.

Minorities don’t understand anything.

I drive around 4 hours a day and have been driving for 31 years and have never seen anything like this. I wouldn’t have tried to go around him but I wouldn’t know wtf was going on either.

Me. I’ve never seen this before.

Even a retard would have better common sense then this dumb fuck holy shit
