I had a friend make the mistake of driving her car home from the bar on the weekend of her 21st birthday. She wasn’t hammered but definitely shouldn’t have been driving. Got pulled over less than half a block from her apartment. Cop knew she was buzzed. Took one look at her license and asked where she was headed. Told him right there and pointed to a parking space maybe 30 yards away. Cop asked for the keys and told everyone to get out of the car. Cop got in, parked her car, came back and said ‘happy birthday. If I see your car on the road again tonight, your toast’ and walked away.
She never drove after drinking again
That's what you call a respectable human being; Hopefully he didn't tell the rest of the department about what he did or he would have been ostracized.
Sometimes a hard warning/ scare is better than an arrest, good job on the cop
Women always just get away with everything . she just has to blink
That made me smile. What a great person.
Not a gender thing, a human thing.
Former cop here. Was on a scene once when we were arresting a suspect for DUI and called for a tow. The tow truck driver shows up drunk. Now there were 2 DUI arrests and had to call another wrecker for the first tow truck!
Yikes! Bet that was one of the times you thought "this job sucks, how did I end up here".
@@deisisase I dunno, there's times when things are so ridiculous that you have to laugh or note that it'll make a good story later

@@deisisase"former cop," you're probably not far off.
Bruce I used to drink & drive all the time!!! I was a bad alcoholic!!! I would drink a fifth to a magnum of hard liquor every day!!! I stopped cold turkey by myself with no help because my uncle had his twelfth wreck & killed his fiance!!! I have now been sober for 34 years & I am ashamed of my past drinking!!! I could have killed myself or someone else & their children!!! I never got a DUI but I know I deserved many!!!
You don't think of those things when you are drinking!!! I thank GOD every day for keeping me & those around me safe & blessing me with enough strength to give it up!!!😊😊😊😊😊
I'm very proud of you
Good for you. Wish more people could have your strength!
Lucky you
Indeed
Good jobs on the past 34 going on 35 years.
Proud of you!
I used to live in FL & met hulk "Terry" several times at a Harley Dealership. He was always so nice. I told him one day that there was a girl who had autism & that she loved him. Watching him wrestle was her biggest happiness. He called about 3 months later to say he was coming & to go get the girl. He spent several hours hanging out with her. So nice.
I've always heard that he was really nice to fans Especially the kids...
"THOSE KIDS CAN SUCK IT, BROTHER!" - Hollywood Hogan
Probably one of the funniest things he did when he first went heel
That’s dope! He does seem like a good guy.
err, that's actually oddly disturbing. Man in power, alone with a young toddler girl wrestling in private, as a parent that's sad and disgusting
My aunt ran the cleaning crew of a large Vegas casino. Said in 10 years he never complained once and tipped huge every visit. Said he was the sweetest guest she ever dealt with. My late uncle was a huge wrestling fan, and she said Hulk would bring him at least one autographed item every time. You'd think Hulk lived in his garage with all the stuff he had displayed.
Id love to see a sitcom with Bruce Rivers and his criminal grandmother getting into wacky shenanigans
We could call it 'Here's the thing...'
Not possible, but I picture Cloris Leachman or Betty White as Grandma.
@Netflix , please make this happen.
@@joanfregapane8683 Except both of those lovely ladies have left us. 😢 They both did great work right up to the end.❤
That's a great idea!! I think it be a riot . Maybe Email the content genius with your idea. It be worth a try. Lol 😂
Over a decade ago, I was employed as a van driver. That one night, I drove over to my friends place, in my company van after work, ended up partying hard, drinking a lot, etc. It was 1am when I decided it's time to drive home, about 2 miles through a small irish town, where there is hardly ever any police present (in Ireland called "Garda"). As I'm driving (shamelessly drunk) home, I pass a police car, which almost immediately turns its lights and sirens on, turns around and catches up to me. My heart stopped. I stopped the van at the roadside, police car parks right behind me, blue lights flashing, the cop walks up to my van and slightly angrily asks "what's up with my speed?!" and claims that I "flew by" when I passed him. I reacted with genuine surprise, saying "well, as a company driver, driving hundreds of miles per working day, I get used to going through the roundabouts right at the (city) speed limit (30mph)". The cop mumbled something to me angrily, which I didn't quite understand, walked off to his squad car and drove away. I was shocked he didn't smell booze off me. I was most definitely drunk, no question. For some time I sat there in the van, heart beating like crazy, realized that I almost got arrested for drink-driving, consequently almost lost my job, thus my income etc. Had that policeman smelled booze off me, that encounter would have gone WAY different. That was the very last time I ever drove under influence. Ever.
I was like 19 on my way to work at 4 am after partying all night and skid off the road because it was raining. Didn't wreck, just got stuck in the grass on the roadside. A cop stopped to check things out and him and I were shoulder to shoulder trying to push my truck out of the rut it was in. I cannot believe A) I was so incredibly irresponsible and B) he didn't smell the vodka on my breath and immediately arrest me.
The most terrifying car ride I ever had was when in Eire on holiday. After playing in a Dublin pub, a group of us piled into a car and drove through the countryside south of Dublin to where our next session was to be at a private residence. The driver was pissed drunk and played chicken with other drivers by driving the wrong way far in excess of the speed limit. I screamed and begged him to let me out; I fully expected to die that night. Fortunately, we made it to our destination, though The legendary Martin Byrnes was in the back seat crying because the duck eggs in his pocket had broken. No eggs for breakfast that morning 😅
I reached 18 years sober on the 7th of January! Alcohol always controlled me even when I thought it didnt. It took me down places that I would have never dreamed of.
I am so so thankful for my sobriety
Congratulations on 18 Years!!
I reached 16 years on 11th November last year hello fellow recoverist, I turned to the drink after having to retire from Olympic weightlifting due to a baaad back and knee injury I'm glad I never drove whilst drinking ,I drank non stop for 3 years having a jacks n coke when I woke up, I withdrew one day cold turkey. it was a rough road but sooo glad I did ,no more hangovers or bad drunk decisions and big congratulations on 18 years thats awesome
@@Elisabeth208 Im sorry to hear about your back and knee injury and having to retire from olympics...
Congratulations on your Sobriety!!
I was in a motorcycle accident and broke everything from neck down, except arms, I know how hard it is to have injury destroy your life...I Pray 🙏 that you are doing well and the back and knee are not causing issues....
Wow, congratulations- that’s really impressive!
Incredible work! I’m only 10 days this time around. Mine isn’t with alcohol, though addiction is a disease regardless. But my husband and our kids deserve better. I’m starting to entertain the belief that I may as well. But until that’s fortified, my support system congratulates me every single morning and I’ve not even considered slipping up and needing to make excuses. It’s an incredible feeling! Please pray I have the strength you had and that you continue to have every single day. I can’t wait to be able to count the time in years! ❤
Imagine your father had to pay MILLIONS for your last big drunken car mistake, and you still don't learn a thing from it
That’s the reason he didn’t learn
If you've not heard the recording, in the accident that left his friend brain damaged, Hulk Hogan more or less said he [the friend hurt by his son] deserved what he got because he must have been a bad person if that happened to him.
In the same conversation his son is more concerned about starting a *_new reality show_* one where *_he_* makes the most money.
@@dillis2188was just about to say… imagine being a part of this “family” 😂
@@dillis2188dear heavens, that is horrible!
Hogan not teaching his kids accountability doesn't shock me; he choked out Richard Belzer on a TV show and had to settle that one too because Belzer was injured when Hogan released (dropped) him.
That kissing my drunk girl thing was about as good as the whole ‘I got pregnant from a toilet seat’ story.
Or swimming in a swimming pool...
Not quite as good as an ex porn star claiming they can't blow
Yes and the “I was an ex porn star that’s as hard as I can blow” had me lmao😂😂😂

A few years ago, Nick Hogan was driving with a friend in his car. Nick was speeding & driving recklessly. Nick crashed the car & left his friend in a state that required/requires him to have constant care for the rest of his life! Nick is ignorant. Privileged pos! Thanks for covering this, Bruce & Micheal ❤
The kid didn't ever leave hospital and he died, youre correct in your opinion on Nick he is a horrible, entitled pos who should have done real jail time for what he did but no daddy cones swooping in and saved his spoilt ass just like he's doing here. Imagine being that age and still calling your daddy when you get in trouble. My dad was a lawyer and I can assure you if he got woken up at 2am to be told I was caught dd he'd tell them to take me to jail and hang up and he wouldn't bail me out either.
@@Ruth78620 Bollea and his passenger, 22-year-old John Graziano, were flown to Bayfront Medical Center in St. Petersburg, Florida. Bollea was released from care on August 27 and said to be "OK". Graziano, a U.S. Marine and a member of Bollea's pit crew, was not wearing a seatbelt. The eye and brain injuries he sustained are expected to leave him in a nursing home for the rest of his life. In September 2009, Graziano returned to his home where he continued to receive full-time care.
That was more than just a few years ago.
That is so awful! You’d think Nick would have learned his lesson about driving carefully.
@@Ruth78620re was a case in Dallas TX where a 17 yr old drunk driver caused a accident that killed a family of 4..because he had a rich daddy all he got was sent to a rehab center in CA and probation..he did end up in jail several months later for breaking probation but no real punishment for killing 4 people
Hulk is absolutely right. Every time I got in trouble there was alcohol involved. I quit drinking in 2018 and I have not been in trouble since. In my opinion alcohol is the worst drug
It’s legal though because big companies make money and the government makes money. That’s all it takes.
@@limitlesspursuitexactly it’s easy to access unlike hard core drugs .
@@kjh6903It's easy to access Because it's legal. Drugs would be easy to access, if they aren't already, if they were legal also.
@@limitlesspursuitI mean, and thousands of years of people brewing and drinking it.

i lost a friend to a drunk driver when we were 15. I'm an EMT now and think about her every time I get called to a drunk driving incident. shit makes my blood boil, there's absolutely no excuse to be driving drunk. RIP Lori, you beautiful soul 🖤
I'm sorry for your loss! She your Angel watching over you in those difficult times!! ✌🏼💗😘🫂😘
Sorry for your loss. And thank you for your service.
I'm sorry about your friend and drunk driving makes my blood boil too. My brothers and alcoholic and while he would not drive when he was actively drinking he thought he was alright in the morning and he wasn't so I called the police because I know my brother and he would NEVER forgive himself if he hurt or killed someone and neither he should so I stopped it before it happened. I have nothing but admiration for all emergency service workers the things you must see and still go bck to work the next day is increadible to me. Sending g love from Scotland
I'm sorry for your loss. She sounds like she was a very kind soul. RIP
Sorry for your loss and thank you for all that you do!! Seriously I know that is not an easy job, your services is GREATLY appreciated. RIP to your sister and I know she’s super proud of you
Hulk Hogan was given more latitude as a parent than most others would. I have seen parents ask questions and be told, "he's an adult, it will be in the report"
and that's exactly how he should have been treated.
i like to think they didn't recognize him, and they just found his look really charming.
@@zubetp please tell me you're not serious. No other citizen can roll up like that and get that level of cooperation from the police. And if you think they didn't recognize him I think you aren't paying attention. He had a tshirt with his face on it
Yes, but he treated the cops with respect. That's the biggest difference.
@@Katrina-qs2rl the biggest difference is his status and nothing else
The man who taught me to drive always told me - after midnight, there's nothing but cops and drunks on the road.
My mom has said that same thing my whole life. Even when I was younger I tried to make sure I was where I needed to be by midnight. It’s good advice.
I just can't imagine as a grown adult calling my father to bail me out of a situation. My parents wouldn't bail me out of any situation and would make me suffer the consequences of my actions because that is what a parent should do.
It amazes me how many parents are also enablers
I have never been arrested, I believe my mom's warning about how she would leave me there so don't bother calling her was enough to keep me from doing anything I shouldn't while in the roads.
Especially with sex, drugs, or alcohol. Learn your consequences on your own. If you get pregnant and you know better, you shouldn't expect your parents to take care of your child too.
@@mariekirby2833My Mama told me the same thing! 😂 And she said I would be removed from her will because that means im irresponsible. Ive never been in trouble and that’s more bc I wouldn’t do well in jail lol and I like to spend my money on things I can use and not bail money
I’m 32 and I would definitely call my parents but I’ve never been in trouble before and both of my parents are lawyers so that might be different.😅
This is the same son who -killed- paralyzed a friend by drunk driving when he was 17
Any penalty for that?
@@ellendickey4769 I’d have to look it up, idr. Not enough if so, clearly 😞
@@ellendickey4769Nick served a brief prison sentence, for the manslaughter charge, but it wasn't enough. And then TMZ or some outlet got the jail call recordings, where Nick insulted the kid he basically killed and instructed his father Hulk to get him a new reality show for his prison release.
😢 I never knew that
Basically. Yes. Still hasn’t learned.
I’ve always told my hubby…if you EVER drive drunk and get pulled over and arrested…..”enjoy your staycation! Cuz, I won’t be bailing you out!
I hate to burst your bubble but in most states first time DUIS don’t need bail. They book you, hold you until you’re sober and release you. So there would not be a staycation!🤣
So you're only mad if he gets caught??? Risking the lives of everyone on the road is fine as long as the authorities don't take him in???
These dui field sobriety tests are such BS. My dad was a defense attorney and he had a cop on the stand and my dad asked the cop to perform
the same test his client was asked to perform and the cop failed the test, on the stand. And my dad literally said to the cop “officer, have you been drinking?” Hahaha goes without saying my dad won that case. I hate hate hate these field sobriety tests. They’re designed so everyone fails.
Remind us of that when you family is turned into a fresh meatloaf (ketchup topped) on the highway by a drunk.
If the cop failed, its because he drank before court. The test works. Anyway if you were sober and only failed because your balance sucks or something, the breathalyzer would clear you.
Wow lol your dad is the hero of every drunk driver out there putting us all at risk 🙄
Definitely not something I’d be bragging about 😂😂
@leesweather9894 why don't they just skip straight to the breathalyzer? And how do we know his client was even drunk?
All about meeting the requirements for court, process, procedure and evidence. :) @@turtlepowersf
This whole incident feels like a dream being recounted. "Man, last night I dreamt I was a cop, and I pulled over a drunk guy, and then Hulk Hogan showed up..."
And, and he was carrying a stick, like a mountain rambler. He was also super mellow and not like his Hulk Hogan persona at all.
@louieberg2942 that's a walking stick three decades if wrestling pretty much destroyed his body.
Legit funny
FYI, in the state of Florida, if you can’t safely move over for an emergency vehicle, you’re supposed to go 20 miles under the posted speed limit.
Bruce has been putting out a lot of content lately. He's the man!

@@Paula-ps1viYeah the really sad or horrible ones I've had to skip.😢 I like law talk with Mike where things are light hearted and fun too. It's also a great channel 😊
@@NicolaMaxwell you should check out Natalie lawyer chick if you enjoy Bruce and Mike! I haven't watched her in a while because honestly forgot until I read your comment and thought of her. She covers a myriad of cases from lighthearted to gruesome.

Bruce Rivers 2024
Bruce......what number did Hulks son finally blow at the station. I'm curious.
THIS!!!
Hulk increased the amount of time before nick actually got tested at the station by stalling the cop
Field sobriety testing is to just humilate. In Australia you get pulled over you get a breath test done. If you're over, down to the station for the proper test then BOOM done! Add up all the time that could be saved doing other important things. The Hulk came across as a fair and reasonble man. Kudos to him!
yep, same in Europe... why the feck waste 30 minutes to just do roadside gymnastics and eye tests?
They use it to incriminate you further. That's all it is.
@@pabapaba6869That and breath tests can be inaccurately high if someone recently drank alcohol, just used mouthwash, etc. If you waste a bunch of time doing these tests, you negate that argument
@@pabapaba6869 incriminate you of what, it is simple, if the police think i have been drinking, just use the breath tester, if it is ok, then you are good to go, if it is below the limit then give me a ticket, and so on.
and what`s up with getting in front of a judge for almost every driving infraction?
how does that make any sense?
@@whatsMyNameAgainAgain the fuck is a Kent European country
My Father told me that same thing...
"Nothing good happens after midnight"
I told my son the same thing.
So if you're gonna drive drunk do it in the afternoon. Maybe do what I do, I have never drank in my life and I'm to old now.
Same. My grandma always called anytime after midnight, “The Witching Hour”.
Notice how he said "Every problem I've ever had in my life revolves around _someone_ drinking alcohol." He's including himself in that, but he's not limiting it to just himself. He's basically saying to himself, "Not again!"
A decade ago on my 21st birthday some friends and I returning home from the bar pulling into my drive way got pulled over. He didn’t flash his lights until we got out of the car and when he approached us I said “I won’t waste your time officer I’ve been drinking but I live here.” He said “well your brake lights out,” walked us to my door, watched us go inside and drove off, first and last time I ever drove and TOUCHED alchohol 😂
Years of being the designated driver I still allow for 1 beer at the beginning of the night,water and beer nuts an pretzels after that.
@@danielbutler6823no judgement but I also had a friend die that year after declining a ride home I offered and I decided to drink and get my car the next day when I heard the news. Since then I either DD or know whose DD’ing if I’m drinking so it’s always an option if someone else changes their minds, although it’s been some time since our partying days, now we meet up for play dates for our kids 😂
Wait so HOME BASE actually worked for you? Glad you learned your lesson👍🏻
A cardigan ?!!? 🤣😂🤣 Bruce, you are one of a kind, the most entertaining defense attorney on the planet! Not to mention how educational, respectful and hilarious you are. ❣️ Thank you for breaking things down on a level most of us understand, i appreciate all the insight and knowledge 😊
The look on Hulks face when the officer tells him "she's very upset" shows what he thinks of the girl.
I don't understand why people still go through these field sobriety tests. Here in Europe, it's much simpler: you blow into the device and if it shows a value that's too high, you're taken to the station to blow into a calibrated device. This way, both sides have objective and reliable values.Not like a test that you can fail even when sober.
The US likes to focus on humiliation so they can feel better about themselves and people don’t know their rights.
When you agree to the test - you’re probably drunk, that’s the first indicator you’re impaired
The roadside tests generally aren't allowed as evidence in court (depending on jurisdiction). They are just another indication of possible intoxication. They take you to the police station or hospital to get a more accurate test.
@@Gusto20000it’s actually the opposite drunk ppl have the confidence to try to talk their way out of the test- sober people will immediately agree and be compliant because they are sure they are going to pass bc they are sober
I always wonder this as well. Just do the breathalyser to start with and it's faster for everyone.
He sounds a lot more lucid and responsive that most possible DUI suspects.
I just tried these tests sober and I would have failed. Once they start this process you are going to jail. There is no instance where you get back into your car after the field sobriety BS
Before this body had so many injuries and surgeries I've flunked all those tests 100% sober, so have me blow in the test thingie... I'm not doing any of the physical tests! 100% pass because I don't drink.
Exactly. They are bullshit
Of course he’s not. Hulk is a total badass. He doesn’t drink. And he loves his kids
Who else was thinking the hulk was going to say something to the cop. Along the lines of “ listen here lemme tell you something brother”
I really thought he was going to say that😂😂
I think ol' hulkkie knew when to keep his mouth shut.🤣🤣🤣
Stfu kid, you watch to much television.
I thought he was going to drop a little sweet chin music on the officers.
When my son was 20 he got in a fender bender and the other party called the cops. While waiting, my son called me and my husband - we’re both lawyers. We showed up at scene. Cop wanted him to blow and we advised him to decline because they’re not reliable. My son had had nothing to drink. Cop lied and said he smelled alcohol and that my son was unsteady on his feet. Arrested him, got a warrant for blood draw, spent a night in jail. Son’s drivers license was suspended because he refused to blow. Charged with DUI. Blood came back 0.0 % alcohol but he still had to go to court to get the charges dismissed - my husband represented him.
Point being, you can do everything right and still get charged. And cops lie.
I only drink at home. To much crap jumps off in public nowadays. I want to be sober and alert at all times when I step off the porch.
After years of bartending I wholeheartedly agree with you! When I'm in public, especially around people drinking, I want to be aware of my surroundings and able to bail or defend myself when shit heads south!
As someone who has done everything from psychedelics to hardcore drugs (I'm better now), to social drinking, I've never understood doing ANY substance outside of ones house. It literally would cause me so much anxiety, or set you up for some horrible interactions
Good choice
Always some asshole that wants to fight you for no reason at drinking establishments I can't have more than a drink at a bar because I want to be able to sense shit before It pops off there's a meth problem in my town and it causes chaos
But at home I’m gettin fucked up 😂
This is FAR from a parent's worst nightmare. Everyone's alive and no one is going to jail (for long).
A parent's worst nightmare is what the parents of the young man who got killed experienced.
This isn't even his worse offense behind the wheel; he crashed another car and his passenger died after being left comatose.
You'd think he would have learned something, but Daddy's money bailed him out.
@@thatvalensteingirl And this is only the second one we know of, there could be more.
@@Lori_in_CTclearly he's a drunk and needs rehab ASAP.
@@Corwin1141 yeah, following a healthy stint in JAIL OR PRISON! 🤨 Some folks aren’t happy until they kill themselves or someone else. Apparently, he’s not even satisfied after he has! 😡🤬 And his dad needs to stay out of this one! 😒
Bruce Rivers is one of the best criminal defense attorneys you will ever find
When my kid was 17 he was pissy drunk. Girlfriend broke up with him. Not an excuse. It was a BLESSING he was pulled over. He couldn't do the circus test on the side of the road and refused the to blow. In Oregon - if you're sh*t faced it's best to take the hit of being suspended for a year than to get a full on DUII. He was a 100 miles down the freeway from me - so my mom was closer and immediately picked him up from jail. No 8 hours. He's never driven under the influence again. I'm so glad he was pulled over. He could have killed someone - or killed himself. He was that drunk. Had he been closer - I would have showed up. He's my son. I'll always be there there for him - not cuddling - but I'll always be there for my kid. He's 36 now and doing just fine.
I'm glad your son learned. Hulk Hogan's did not. Nick was in a terrible accident about the same age as your son, drag racing and turned his friend into a vegetable that ended up dying. Hulk bailed his ass out and paid for expensive attorneys and Nick was barely punished. Here we are all these years later and he obviously never learned how truly valuable, precious and fragile life really is.
Yes, I do remember that. @@BitsyP
@BitsyP I didn't know the kid had died that's so sad. Whys he not in jail for vehicular manslaughter? Because daddy's rich? How about he gave that money to the family for medical bills and left his son to take his chances. That's whati would have done.
@@Ruth78620 When Bollea was 17, he was involved in a high-profile crash, according to previous Tampa Bay Times coverage, that left a passenger in his car, John Graziano, with severe brain damage. Police said at the time that Bollea was racing when he lost control and smashed into a palm tree.
For that 2007 incident, Bollea spent five months in jail for reckless driving.
@@musicismagic3001 5 months and then the other kid dies. Hardly justice is it?
These instructions are too much for a lot of people who aren't even drunk.
Then they REALLY should NOT be operating a vehicle. These tests are VERY direct and simple. If you aren’t competent enough to understand “take nine steps, turn, take nine steps” stay off the damn road.
In my country they do not ask you to do all this test. They just have you blow the breathalyzer.
@@beanybabyrabie Understanding it is easy. If you have ADHD, your eyes are not gonna behave like the eye test here wants it to behave. This makes zero difference in reality while driving. If you watch the video too, the instructions for the step test was deliberately ambiguous. Many officers will not clarify the instructions such as "what counts as the first step", and if you guess wrong, it's used against you even if you walk perfectly.
@neruneri It's not just the first step. It's a short term memory test to stop and turn at nine and return.
Alcohol interrupts short term memory. Most people concentrate so hard on walking the line they don't remember the instructions.
@@beanybabyrabiethose weren't the instructions, so please don't drive.😂😂😂😂
I'm Norwegian, and over here, this field sobriety test bullcrap is never done. It's not considered admissable and any cop doing this BS will be put on immediate administrative leave pending an investigation. Only PBTs are done, followed by a blood sample if over the legal limit. Personally, I have a diagnosis that impairs my fine motor skills, as well as eye to hand coordination and balance. I would fail all of these tests, even on a good day.
im pretty sure only Americans do that bullshit, other countries do it with PBTs and blood samples
These road side tests are ridiculous. Fail a Breathalyzer then blood test. Done.
Drunk people think they can do the test quickly and drive further
@@Gusto20000 Sober people think they can beat the test too, but one ambiguous instruction and you're taking the blood test anyway.
Pesky little thing called the constitution in America... that's why they do this roadside dog and pony show.
@@neruneriI have a hard time understanding instructions and would probably fail those tests sober
The real question is how many times has Daddy shown up and squashed another DUI?
Once I watched a Code Blue Cam video and they stopped a young guy. He was cocky and the officers didn't like him. He told them that he hadn't been drinking at all and they ran him through the tests. He looked sober to me. When they got him down to the station, he blew zeros. He was completely sober. They even got his permission to draw his blood. It came back completely clean. The officers had to apologize. The video was satisfying. Police officers can be wrong and when they are, that's time civilians will never get back. They are not held accountable. It's just oops. He had a bad attitude and we made him pay for it.
Michael does do a great job picking out content. This law channel is so good because you never know what is coming next
Guy was polite, compliant, even did his tests better than I could sober.
Agree- probably would have done even better if his hoochie mama and her friend would just STFU! Just my opinion.
Seriously right? The most incapacitated thing he did was speak 😂
agreed. it’s disconcerting he finds himself in this situation again but he performed all of his sobriety exercises well. regardless, the optics of this are not good-especially given his buddy from the accident is currently a quadriplegic.
Doubt most people are fit enough to do all the balance tests for extended periods.
You know he went to prison for nearly killing someone, then hulkster laughed it off and said that they can get a new TV show.
“There’s nothing like a good homicide amongst friends” 😂😂😂 spoken like a true lawyer
He is so nice and polite.
I couldn't pass those tests sober.
I wouldn't even attempt it. I'd just tell them to break out the breathalyzer or arrest me.
A coworker of mine was arrested on the way to work. He was a Mexican guy that had some sort of eye problem, so his eyes always twitch. He tried to explain it to the cops, but they weren't buying it. They ended up arresting him, towing his car, and taking him to the jail to give him a breathalyzer. Ended up turning him loose, but he still had to pay to get his car out of impound, and missed out on $500 from work that day
Nice and polite? Who cares! This nice and polite criminal is putting other drivers lives at risk.
He can be nice and polite to your mom after he takes you out then or to you after taking your mom out. IF you can't pass this sober then don't drive either, you're too incompetent. Hopefully a drunk does indeed hit you or yours instead of someone else since you so cool about it
Those test are constructed for you to fail. I refuse field sobriety and go straight to breathalyzer. Never been arrested because the only two times they suspected it was actually me just not paying attention to the road. My fault and very irresponsible I admit. But I knew better than to try.
Bruce, your grandma's antics never get old! 😂
He has probably represented her a few times 😂
They kind of do
Great video! Thanks Bruce and Michael. Keep giving Dad advice. It’s needed! ❤
Bruce. I hope you stay true. Your content isn’t tainted with an agenda. Truly helps me get through my days.
Thank you as always, Bruce for covering us, I cannot believe this kid has not learned his lesson…
Hopefully, the judge will come down on him a bit and wake him up before he kills himself or hurts anyone else.
Also, he probably should get away from this woman. But, this is just from the context of the video... maybe she's a nice person when sober.
Looks like dad is gonna help him out again though. Dad needs to go to Al-Anon so he will learn to stop enabling his son, and son needs to get help
Honestly, I’m just impressed - drunk drivers’ standards are hella low - that he’s not yelling, being a douche, demanding his phone, etc. He’s really polite and compliant.
I know right, I had the same thought. The bar is in hell 😅
Rich people don't have to be afraid of consequences.
He knows daddy will bail him out. How many daddies of grown people show up at their traffic stop.
Bollea (NICK HOGAN) previously made headlines in the late 2007 when he, at the age of 17, was involved in a serious crash that left him and his friend, John Graziano, in Bayfront Hospital. According to Sam & Ash Injury Law, Bollea pled no contest to a charge of reckless driving in May 2008, receiving a sentence of eight months in the county jail and five years of probation. Graziano’s family also sued Bollea and Hulk Hogan for the victim’s injuries, WHICH LEFT HIM PARALYZED AND IN NEED OF NURSING CARE FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE! The lawsuit ended in a $1.5 million settlement.
That settlement probably wouldn’t pay for even 1 year of care, given the extent of his injuries. 35% of every dime Nick ever makes or inherits, before taxes, should also go to his care. It makes me wonder if the victim’s attorney was paid off or something.
This Was In Clearwater FL.

My former attorney (more of a friend and mentor, the legal work came for free, RIP) gave me the same advice as Bruce: "Don't blow." I asked why, he said, "They don't give you a receipt, and cops lie." Good enough. Well, I made the mistake of applying his advice to another state, and I got in a whole heap of trouble for it. I hired an excellent lawyer and got it all cleared up, preserving my still spotless criminal record, but it cost me a pretty penny. That cop was a boy scout. In that state (MD), I'd have been a lot better off if I'd just blown into the damn thing and gone about my day.
Where I am you definitely have to blow. You do not have to do field sobriety tests and should refuse, but refusing to blow is a huge deal
Yeah, here if you don't blow, they'll force you to do a blood test by warrant and hit you with the books to teach you what cops can do to people who make their jobs difficult.
If I do ever get pulled over and am asked to do a field sobriety test in my home town though, I will literally tell the cop only as long as he does one too. My bf got rear-ended at a red light by a drunk town cop in his cruiser, so it's them we have to worry about getting drunk and running around on the roads hurting innocent people, not me who doesn't really enjoy the feeling of being drunk in the first place, let alone behind the wheel drunk, that's insane.
Lol yup. They're the same way here in Virginia
It’s a very nuanced conversation. In my state you get additional charges for refusals to blow. And if you refuse to blow they bring you to the hospital and get a warrant for your blood. So you’re better off just complying. Gets you less days in jail and gets you ZERO days in jail on your first.
You don't have to blow on the side of the road in Maryland, but you DO have to blow at the station. But that's the case for most states. PBTs are not accurate enough to be admissible in court.
I remember when Flori-duh used to make you say the abc's backwards from z to a and full cavity searches right there on the side of the road in front of the whole world to see as part of their "field sobriety tests".
I'm not sure I could do the abcs backwards in a dui test while sober
Nick was in an accident in 2007. His passenger suffered massive brain damage and Nick went to jail for reckless driving.
I was curious so I to look it up. 🙂
When Bollea was 17, he was involved in a high-profile crash, according to previous Tampa Bay Times coverage, that left a passenger in his car, John Graziano, with severe brain damage. Police said at the time that Bollea was racing when he lost control and smashed into a palm tree.
For that 2007 incident, Bollea spent five months in jail for reckless driving.
So his dad is gonna be spending alot of money to get him out of this
Bruce saying that nothing good happens after midnight reminds me of that reality star who used to say that the only things open after midnight were the ER and legs. They must’ve went to the same academy of wisdom.
😂that’s one of my favorite sayings.
I think it was an old Elvira quote. Posed as a kid asking for advice about parents wanting her home by midnight.
The reply - If I'm not in bed by midnight, I go home!
ER's , Jail an legs... 😅
"If I could just see him, I could tell you if he's drunk or not!" says Daddy Hulk. Oh, let's just start calling parents to do a visual test. No breathalyzers needed!
Hulk Hogan recently married Sky Dailey, Scientology royalty. Maybe Hulk can get his kid “on the bridge to total freedom.”
After everything that came out why would anyone want to join? It's a cult and a bunch of made of crap by L Ron. XENU IS WATCHING lol
The porn star is NASTY. No self respect 😢
Holy hell ... joining a cult at his age? .. clear evidence of a brain injury in my book.
Royality..lol dont think so...cruise maybe
And here i thought Hulk Hogan might be a reasonable guy...
This test lasted longer than any doctors appointment that I’ve ever had and I’m 60.
I agree. It was just awful.
Was anybody else expecting mini-Hulkster to start wailing "DAAAAAAD!! I WANT MY DAAAAD!! He owns this ISLAND!!"
If you have ever met him, which I have is one of the most respectful and nicest man you’ll ever meet
I’ve watched a lot of these DUI tests and I have to say hes the best I’ve ever seen at completing them. Not sure I could tell he was even drunk if I were the officer
The cops look at their eyes and what they can smell on their breath.
@@LoveandMisses That's not a reliable test.
I agree. He did a good job BUT I new he'd be arrested anyway. The drunk person is put thru those obnoxious tests for nothing really. Why not just do a Breathalyzer and be done with it. IF they refuse then off to jail they go.
@@shirleyturino7749 agree 100%. I live in England, that’s the first thing police will do after pulling you over if they suspect you’re driving under the influence. All of the other tests seems like a waste of time to me 😂. it should be
“You seem to be impaired, please blow into this to see if you are. If you refuse, we’ll take you to the police station to draw your blood.”
Hey Bruce! I bought my son some “Step One” for Valentines Day, he is 17 and bitches about underwear all the time, lol, I couldn’t wait…I had to give them to him!!! He absolutely loves them! Thanks!!!!
Cool! Glad you posted. I will buy a pair for my son. Thx
*LAWYER SAID ALWAYS REFUSE FIELD TESTS. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE IF YOU REFUSE. AND YOU CANNOT BE MADE TO WALK STRAIGHT LINE, ETC*
How did they let this dude get his driver’s license back after he got into a fatal crash that ultimately led to a death? Interesting..
MONEY!!!

Isn't it obvious? His rich and famous dad bailed him out.
Good point! His license should've been revoked and not allowed to drive again..
I haven't had a drink in over 10yrs and I couldn't pass this field test.
Neither could I !
your so free though what do you mean
I've never been drunk and I can't walk heel to toe without having my hands out, I do it subconsciously
Exactly.
I don’t drink at all and never have. I certainly couldn’t pass these Field Sobriety tests!
Seniors, starting at age 55 yrs start to loses their balance. Once you hit 55 yrs falls become a big concern. Now, losing your balance has nothing to do a seniors ability to drive.
Seniors should do a balance exercise every day to protect against falls
Field tests are so pointless, here in Australia we use a breath tester that takes literally 5 seconds and doesn't need replacement straws , you simply speak into a device and its extremely accurate.
Outdated litmus
A breathalyzer won't detect if you are UI of prescription or illicit drugs.
@@evelynwaugh4053 In Europe we have drug test machines in the police vehicle. If they suspect you of being on drugs, they take a small saliva test, and the machine can give a preliminary result in just 15 minutes. Then you're taken to the hospital to give a blood sample to be used as evidence in court. There's no need for this clown show on the side of the road in the year 2024.
@@evelynwaugh4053 The remedy for that is that if the cop believes you're on those, they can make you take a blood test. In your described situation, you're taking the blood test regardless, because the FST isn't going to help inform or negate that in the slightest.
@@nerunerione's "performance" on these tests are used as "evidence" for probable cause for the arrest.
Americans have a humiliation kink
I find this process childish and demeaning, and incredibly SLOW!!! In Australia we get breathalysed immediately and then we're on our way - or off to the police station in the back of their car 😂.
But seriously, the way your cops check DUI seems so backward, inefficient and unfair. i would seriously struggle to follow those instructions! I struggle in yoga classes!!
Yep it's a total crock! Hilarious stupidity!
The US actually has constitutional rights… so you can’t just go around giving breath tests to people. They have to prove it with articulable suspicion. Thats not the flex you think it is.
We have the 4th Amendment. Those childish tests are optional. You do not have to take them.
@@betyouwont2440 Reasonable suspicion can apply to anyone. They breatho you, and you're on your way, if clear. Simple, fast. Often every single vehicle drive is breatho'd say coming out of a music festival. Late at night. It saves many lives. But hey carry on letting your cops do what they do and how they do it, cracks me up every time, and they kill three people a day too. Woo. Great constitutional rights.
These instructions sound like A dance class drill. I would fail. Not including being nervous.
I don’t drink. But if I had to do these steps I’d ask the police to completely demonstrate every test first. I couldn’t do these steps sober. I think the eye test and breath test are the only tests cops feel are necessary. My dad, an attorney, always told me to refuse all tests and call him at the station. You don’t have to do the tests people! I wonder if anyone has ever “passed” these tests and been allowed to return to their car? Nope. At least Nick was polite.
Same. I haven’t had alcohol in more than 10 years and even when I did drink it was never much or often. I just don’t like it.
But I wouldn’t be able to do these.
I have a bad knee and a spine injury, so while I look perfectly able-bodied, I’m not.
Even the eye test might screw with me because I’ve seen some of these cops use a bright light for it and I just know attempting it would trigger a migraine for me.
If u refuse a breathalyzer in Canada you get a DUI and your license suspended for 1 year.
@@PAWGmothhere too, you can refuse but there are consequences. Drinking and driving are symptoms of desire to self end in this day and age.
I've passed all the tests before and was allowed to leave. A couple times. Even drunk and twice after getting into an accident! I don't know how. I guess I was lucky. I have gotten 2 DUIs in my life. 1 when I was 19. And my 2nd at 21. That was 20 years ago. I quit drinking for good 7 years ago and I thank my lucky stars everyday that I made it through alive!
You could 100% pass the test IF you're not inebriated. It's not about stumbling or whatever, it's about being able to follow very simple directions and actually perform those steps.
The more you watch these body cams, the more you notice how none of the test-takers can ever follow the simple instructions. Because they're drunk.
I was expecting the Hulkster to come in and be like “LET ME TO YOU SOMETHING BROTHA” and proceeds to grab the officer and suplex him on the road. However he didn’t do that all. He was extremely respectful to the officers. Didn’t once bring up “Do you know who I am” like those Tik Tok influencers. Just being a model citizen. He went from being the All-American Wrestler to the All-American Master Oogway. Much respect Mr. Hogan.
Him and Kevin Nash challenge the cops to a match live on halloween havoc paper view with the tag team champion belts on the line. In a no holds bar falls count out anywhere match. Whatchu gonna do brother I said whatchu gonna do what the Hulkster runs wild all over you!
After the suplex he’d also tear his shirt off.
Bruce, you are so funny with these commentaries!! I love watching you!! 💞
And you are certainly nice on the eyes 👀 for sure!!!

"I'm not drunk, I'm sad"

Remember to say No after you're Mirandised, and don't jump the judge at trial.
What about 1st degree?
Stop Shooting people brah! 😅
😬
Did Bruce get you off? Or are you commenting from prison or out on bond?
wearing a t-shirt with your own picture on it!!!! WTF!! LOL He probably has a storage unit full of those t-shirts. LOL
Stallone said that Hulk Hogan was his actual “hardest fight,” not Lundgren (who literally almost killed him), and not Mr T. He said he was MASSIVE and hard to actually move around in real life.
I have 2 sons and I pass on your advice to them...VERY doubtful they'll ever need it, but you never know😊. Thank you so much for all your hard work.
I have met the hulk personally and he’s an extremely nice man extremely respectful
I'm a 5'2" female and I was drunk tested once. It was insane. I passed the test - including counting backwards from 100 by 7's while standing on one leg. The cops said 'you passed but we know there's something wrong with you, so if you touch your car again tonight you are going to jail.'.
It was well after midnight, and they waited and watched until they saw me set off on foot with no phone and no money, to walk 3 miles home through some seriously sketch neighborhoods. I've never understood why they were so hostile, what the point of testing someone is if passing the test doesn't matter, or why they were any more justified putting my life at risk by stranding me in the middle of the night I would have been to put other people's lives at risk by drunk driving.
As it happens, I wasn't drunk so it was probably just that I was really tired and I was not the best driver to start with; but I don't know what they pulled me over for in the first place because they never told me that either. I pretty much lost faith in the whole process after that.
How the heck do you count backwards by 7s? You must be a math genius. I could barely do it forwards.
In Australia, you wouldn't be doing these 'dance for me' tests, you'd just be given a breathalyzer and it's 0.00 or under the legal limit (0.05 here in Australia for open licenses), you're free to go.
@@acd6835 The problem with the breathalyzer is cops lie all the time. The breathalyzer doesn't keep a record or produce receipts, so you blew what they say you blew. That's dangerous.
I couldn’t do that stone sober !!
@@acd6835they don’t make you wait and try again?
My daughter and I do not drink. Neither one of us could pass a field sobriety test. That being said, we also don't drive in the dark. We are "gracefully challenged". She was pulled over during the pandemic. A cop had been following her as the truck she was driving was still registered in my late father's name. Then the deputy saw her drinking. After the second sip, he finally flashed his lights and blipped his siren. He first yelled at her because he'd been following her for nearly a mile, in town, during rush hour. She knew he was behind her, but it's a small town. After yelling about following her, he stuck his head into the truck. She was mortified at his callusness. He saw the bottle she had been sipping from. He commanded her to give him the bottle. She giggled and said "okay". He put it up to his nose and then stuck his finger in the bottle. Again, mortified, even without a pandemic. He then moved his hand to read the bottle. It was root beer! Rather than laugh and let her go. He then began berating her about the current information. She explained that Grandma let her have the truck to get to work. She's on her insurance policy because it was cheaper. So she was current on everything, license, registration, and insurance. Rather than just leave it at that, he took her license back to his cruiser. He was rude, mean, and taking risks that could harm her and himself. So, after getting her in tears for drinking ROOT BEER. He let her go. She was so shaken up, she didn't realize he kept her license. She went to get a new one and had to pay another $40! Now she's terrified of drinking anything in her car, she sees a car near her, she has to talk herself out of a full blown anxiety attack. What can we do if we can't pass a field sobriety test sober? We drive quite well, never in the dark, neither of us have had an accident or speeding ticket.
Stay yall a$$ of da road, it’s to much pressure for yall🤣😂🤣
@@boxinglegends7246actually though 😂
Honestly your daughter’s reaction seems like a lot. The cop was an asshole but you can’t let that dude dictate how you live your life. She didn’t do anything wrong. Encourage your daughter to keep driving for her sake. My aunt accidentally killed someone who stepped in front of her car and didn’t want to drive anymore but my mom made her because that’s not a way to live. Do you two receive mental health help?
@@maggiee639 She still drives, quite well. She just won't drink anything while she's driving. She also has a hands free thing for her cell phone, and a booklet with her registration, insurance, and her license. It fits inside her wallet.
Can’t believe this my grandma that lives in the basement just moved out! She used eforms for her rental agreement and was gone the next morning 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
What an absolute pain in the son!! He’s already almost killed his friend paralyzing him for life.. 34 years old and can’t figure out how to stay out of trouble…
Blowing zeroes? "You must be under the influence of a controlled substance!" I'm not sure I've watched anything pertaining to the Galanakis case in Iowa from Bruce, but that's EXACTLY what happened. If he hasn't covered it, I'd love to see some potential updates
Bruce's intrusive thoughts: "One day I just wanna see Hulk Hogan in a cardigan" 😂😂
In Utah, if a vehicle is pulled over on the side of the road, you are required to have an empty lane between you and them, OR slow down by at least 20 mph.
My 17yr old daughter has nystagmus. I feel bad if they pull her over because it can get bad at times, especially if she's nervous. I hope they can be fair with her if she ever were to be pulled over she's never done anything and id terrified to learn how to drive. I guess we'll see if it happens how much they actually do care about people who have that like her. Stay warm and safe everyone! Thank you as always Bruce!!!
My son has the same thing
It’s crazy how much he sounds like his dad! Especially as he has aged.
In most states, the move over law dictates that you move over one lane if there’s room to do so, if there’s not a way to make a safe lane change you must slow way down.
I think the issue was that he was speeding. In the cases where you can’t move over you’re supposed to slow down but he didn’t.
About 3 months into me getting my license at 18 I got pulled over with a group of friends. We had been drinking hours earlier. (I've never been much of a drinker). Cop pulled me over for loud exhaust. Long story short I blew .07. Because I just got my license it was zero tolerance. Fortunately for me the cop just made us walk home. I've never drove even slightly buzzed again and never will.
Hulk is 70, using a stick for balance. His career has no doubt taking a serious tole on his body. A lot of us grew up watching him in his prime. And now he’s old and beat up. It’s sad in a way. But life.
I used to be a mountain climber and runner. The things I did to my joints and tendons in those days have come back to haunt me. I can imagine what his bodyis doing to him now. The body never forgets.
You mean all that Bad Acting did Hulk in ? 😅🤣😅🤣
@@dorothylewis1207 Go ahead and laugh at him but Karma has just noticed you.
@@dorothylewis1207 😂 well, he did fall down a few times I imagine. I've never seen him in action but I suppose he must have gotten bumped around a bit. At 70 our bodies do tend to speak up and remind us of how we've been living.
Bruce I have a question. Not about this case though. Why is it that the police do these dui/dwi/ovi test on people who are “under the influence”. But a person “under the influence” can’t give consent for other activities. Why don’t they just have people do the breath test and or blood test straightaway?
I think a blood test on the hwy is difficult. What if they are impaired but not on alcohol? Maybe breath first, then if zero do FST'S. Idk why they do it this way. There's gotta be an answer somewhere.
This is what Google said. "FSTs are tools used by cops to accumulate and document specific pieces of evidence (clues) that they can then later testify to in court."
@@hopefulhuman True blood test on the highway would be a no go unless they have EMTs. That would be for the hospital. But it just seems to me if a person is impaired consent can’t be given. Their minds aren’t right.
@@KarliandTommytheBoxer9526If they are too impaired to give consent then what is your defense to them driving? They need a way to catch these people before they kill someone. You have the right to deny the test.
It is a police department policy once they ask someone to do FST tests you're going to jail and once they arrest you they can search your car to inventory it
When I was still in primary school, one of my best buds lost an older brother because a truck driver was wasted behind the wheel. The 18 wheeler ran right over the civic that my friends brother was in. 23 years later and I have never once driven drunk. Just not worth the risk.
I would never be able to concentrate with those geese cackling in the background. Drunk or sober.
He was close to 30 seconds considering how distracting they were.
I'm impressed that the guy was so polite, props to the Hulk for that life lesson.
It's time for Grandma merchandise. Lol
This guy previously was in an accident where his friend was left in a permanent vegetative state. Real nice guy.
I think he handled this matter extremely professionally and he’s a very good father
