Appropriate to the use the taser by left foot.
So what was he supposed to do...just allow her to leave?
YES. There is NO requirement that she SIGN the ticket.
Then what exactly was he arresting her for?

Yeah, fatboy was in real danger from granny, everyone should be tortured for a traffic ticket.
Five times he told her "stop or you're going to be tazed" all she had to do is stop...this ain't rocket science here. 100% her fault.

Again...I ask, had he told her 5 times that she would be shot if she didn't stop, would shooting be warranted?

the "force" wasn't due to the traffic stop---she was a disrespectful sassy bitch
Is tasing the penalty for being disrespectful and sassy?
Maybe the baton would be used for someone rolling their eyes in an obnoxious manner.
Sorry-- I see the shit cops take day in and day out. You couldn't handle it.
And as much as that may get your feathers ruffled, it's no excuse. There is ABSOLUTELY NO LAW that says you may use force to correct disrespectfulness or sassiness. Perhaps a judge may rule the decorum of his court room with punishment of some sort but a cop? He has no right. Trust me, just like the last guy that got tased for not signing a speeding ticket, this fatass cop just cost his city or county a wad. Not that she deserves a penny, but because I don't believe in bashing in the heads of fatass motherfuckers who don't respect thier elders, as much I want to, I'll settle for seeing them hit in the pocketbook.
I agree because if this goes without penalty, then it sets a new standard of acceptable force that cops can use.
Garbage--that slippery slope argument is a loser. There's no "precedent" set here nor groundworked layed for future "torture". This cop could go unpunished while the next one could get fired.
From the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles Homepage:
Sign the ticket. This is not an admission of guilt, just an acknowlegement that you received the ticket (like signing for a package). And besides, if you don't sign, the officer has to arrest you.

The officer had no choice.
all she had to do is stop...this ain't rocket science here. 100% her fault.
maybe you should get pulled over for talking on the cell phone and ordered to suck the officers' dick. you would be given 5 seconds to comply. after that you would have your skull split with a baton and then ass raped with it. after you would get a $20,000 bill from the hosptial for stitching up your torn intestines i would tell you it was 100% your fault - all you had to do is such his dick !
faggot.
to serve and protect ...

the woman was stupid. what do you expect from a 70 year old ? would you taser somebody in a fucking coma for not putting his hands behind his back when ordered ? old people don't understand where the fuck they are or what the fuck is going on. that's not reason enough to try and kill them for it ! ! !
stupidity is not a crime.

http://tlo2.tlc.state.tx.us/statutes/docs/CR/content/pdf/cr.001.00.000014.00.pdfTitle 1, Chapter 14.06
(b) A peace officer who is charging a person, including a child, that is committing an offense that is a class c misdemeanor, other than an offense under 49.02, penal code, may, instead of taking the person before a magistrate, issue a citation to the person that contains written notice of the time and place the person must appear before a magistrate, the name and address of the person charged and the offense charged.
What needs to be done is tazers need to be outlawed.
The police get to litteraly torture suspects on teh slightest pretense, as this demonstarted.
Well, at least the cop didn't mistaken his gun for his taser. It could have been alot worse.
I do not beleive the DMV claim. Show me THE LAW.

Thanks for taking the time to look it up.
Looks like the guy is directed to arrest speeders for not signing tickets. There's a whole lot more assholes involved than I thought.
