Where are you getting the idea that she treated him like shit? He told her she seemed agitated - a dickish comment that someone only makes if they're trying to escalate a situation. She explained why. That should have been it. He then decided to crank up the volume on his dickishness. "Can you put out that cigarette?"
This asshole entirely created that situation and has no business working in a career like that. He's terrible at it. We have plain video evidence of his incompetence.

He doesn't have to breath her cigarette smoke. He asked her to put it out. She refused. He asked her to get out of the car. She refused. She was not cooperative and then he ordered her out of the car. She then started calling him a pussy and fighting w/ him after he was handcuffing her and kicked him. And you say he escalated it?

How many times a day do they have to put up w/ that shit to not be alright? She could have been polite and courteous and driven off w/ a warning. This shit about inciting your rights and provoking police gets you nowhere but jail. It's not smart, Oatie and the police usually win.
