Re: 2 Men on Motorcycle Shoot Traffic Cop - Caught on Camera
That bike law is being implemented here in the Philippines lately. Tandem riders gets stopped and interviewed by police or army personnel in check points. They list down the names and checks ID before they're allowed to pass through.

Re: 2 Men on Motorcycle Shoot Traffic Cop - Caught on Camera
Although I don,t know about the law there. In the Philippines, traffic cops aren't usually police personnel. They're just traffic cops. No guns and they dont apprehend drivers that way. If a driver becomes violent, He's to stand aside, get the license plates, radio for help and let them go. Either they'll fine the offender when he renews his license or an armed police will be waiting ahead of them to do the apprehending.

Re: 2 Men on Motorcycle Shoot Traffic Cop - Caught on Camera
But a cop always has to have an almost heightened sense of his surroundings, especially when pulling a driver over. Things can turn ugly in a flash, even if the driver was being stopped for something as simple as a broken tail light, or failure to yield. I've seen far too many videos of cops who were making routine traffic stops that turned dangerous (and sometimes deadly) when the driver or another person in the car pulls a gun, of if the officer tells the driver to step out of the car and the driver guns the engine, usually with the cop clinging to the open driver side door!
