The thing you don't know is that these police are MEANT to be seen because they play more of a road service. They also wear dark colors. Edit: many people in the replies are saying that it's also to prevent crime and to know where to run for help which is also correct. So there are three reasons.
@@ivopearce holy shit I thought it was normal for police too randomly pull me over, your telling me I’m like… probably 100x more likely to get away with drunk driving in the USA!? Boys pack your fucking shit!
I’m Japanese and what I like about the Koban (tiny police stations) method is that you see the same handful of guys, and they have better context of the area. That also means the majority of the officers are super chill because they generally know the locals. In my area, we’re near a preschool, kindergarten, and elementary school, so I saw the officers working hard to make cute paper cut outs of flowers and bunnies that they taped all over their wall-map so kids who got lost or need help don’t feel intimidated. It was sweet.
It used to be more like that in cities, we had "beat cops" who walked the streets and got to know the residents. THey were from the local precinct It was a different time!
My wife is a retired police officer from China. She was required to work out every week 2-3 times and pass a monthly physical in order to continue being paid. She is 57 and teaches exercise videos online that she has done since she was 21 and a rookie officer. We need this in America!
Better physical fitness and maintenance requirements, regular drug screening, and mandatory therapy sessions as part of professional development would go a long way with US police.
dude that fake accent kind of offended me as an Aussie 😭💀😂 I didn't mean to start a war, I think it's funny but we sound nothing like that, also we don't say naur, we say nough, like dough, go, etc 😭
@@clara_beans because its and it's are different words and meanings, which simply makes it wrong. Doesn't matter if you like it or not. Being on the internet, where you communicate with people from all over the world, which may or may not be able to correct your laziness, is no excuse.
@@TruthSeeker-z1t It's kind of a moot point after Aguas Blancas, Tlatlaya and Ayotzinapa, police beating you up or illegally detaining you are expected.
It’s not exactly dumb for cops to be super visible. Proof being the fact that everyone slows down when they see a cop car. Knowing they’re present deters crime. There’s little purpose to keeping them invisible unless you want to arrest someone after they’ve already killed a man😅. Edit: ffs, I’m not saying “you shouldn’t break the law in police presence”, I’m saying criminals don’t tend to commit crime in police presence so it’s effective at preventing them from committing crime. Not that hard of a concept to understand. Edit 2: It should be a combination of both. One to deter by known presence and the other to deter by not knowing if they are.
In fact in new south wales in australia we even have signs up warning of where speed cameras are. You’d think it would just mean people speed where they know there aren’t any stationary cameras but just putting the warnings up lowers the offense rate by keeping the consequence present in driver’s minds.
Yeah but in the US cops are mostly there to generate revenue for the towns/cities they police. Yeah they'll help you if they *have* to. But they also have quotas of tickets to write per month and get written up if they fail to generate enough income. So being less visible helps. The idea being they can sneak up on you and catch you slipping up easier. Same reason we have so many "undercover" police cars.
@@Nexus-Technologywell the quota isn't just a financially bound prediction. It's a mathematical one. Its less likely that a town is just filled with Sunday drivers and more likely the cops aren't doing their jobs.
yes and its also the national low average, houston for example has a 6 min average. but on the flip side, New Orleans average is close to 150 minutes @AdmiralBlackstar
My neighborhood is 3 minutes, on a bad day. One of the neighbors hit their "police" panic alarm instead of "medical". Within three minutes we had three different communities' cruisers followed by a deputy a half minute later. Fire response is about 5 minutes since they're coming from stations.
@@Maitreya-7777 correct-ish There is kópavogur (Reykjavik in denial) and we also have some large(ish) towns like Keflavík (Iceland's Baltimore) Akranes (basically Birmingham but more depressing) also Akureyri (too far away to be relevant) and Selfoss is growing rapidly (don't go there) But all these towns I've mentioned have a smaller population combined than Reykjavik
I don't like how the vest thing is framed as a negative. "Oh no, I can clearly see there's a cop right there, I better not commit this crime" is the best case scenario.
but also if the cop wasn't there the person who would commit the crime would be a lot more sure about there being no cops, as opposed to constant uncertainty and possibility of there being cops.
@@MrShadowThiefit’s less about the criminals being unarmed, and more about them not being armed with guns. In theory police are for public safety - reflective outfits are good for general public being able to notice them and going over to get help. It’s also good for the “feeling” of security, if there’s consistent police presence - you regularly spot officers going about their day when they don’t blend in, and it acts as a deterrent in itself. If it’s a high stakes surveillance job, or something that requires undercover presence in general, then yeah - it’d be silly to wear neon outfits. But they don’t. The reflective clothing is just for general duties.
Cop pulled me over in Romania. Looked at my rusty car, then looked at me and decided that I'm too poor for drugs and let me go. Then he pulled over the BMW behind me. 1. I'm famous! Does anyone want to buy some crypto? 2. He didn't say any word. He just signed me to pull over, looked at my car, then at me, then signed me to leave. I drive a Dacia Logan from 2005.
Unlike in the US, in the UK police cannot lie to suspects during interrogation, but if you don't bring up exculpatory evidence, you can be asked to explain why at trial. In the UK, staying silent actually can hurt your case.
@@nicholasm7822 if they try to hold it against you, your lawyer will call them out for it. It's unconstitutional and the judge cannot allow the exercising of your 5th amendment to be held against you. If the judge does, that's a motion for mistrial.
@@lasagnasux4934 im not a lawyer but I've been told that you do have the right to remain silent but if you don't bring up things you will later bring up in court to show your innocence, things you would have known when under interrogation, it can damage your case. As far as I understand this is not held to violate the principle of having a right to remain silent.
The thing is in Ireland the garda (police) are normally only meant to solve small things like speeding but there are other ones that are normal in black armed for other things like robberys
Not only that but we have Póilíniú Bóithre. Or for my non Irish speaking friends, the roads policing unit. Mainly patrolling motorways, setting up checkpoints, testing for alcohol etc.
in australia theres also a pretty common thing where cops will set up shop on a main road, with a booze bus nearby to put offenders in for more testing (like for othr drugs, so they know what to charge you for) and they'll test *everyone*. im talking 5-8 cops, maybe more, main road, testing almost every if not every single driver. just because.
In Sweden police can frisk you at will if they consider your appearence to be typical of a criminal, not even joking. They can also confiscate your items and clothing including even your phone, if you can’t give proof that you bought them legally by showing that you have a job.
Gets worse near or on any event or public holiday (about twice a week, sometimes more), but they now do roadside drug tongue swipes. For the tourists, look at the Aussie RBT vids on yt 😂
The reason they wear bright colours is to be seen because it is easier to alert them of danger. They also wear darker or camoflauge colours if they need to
@@fltfathin It is, in Ireland all cops have high vis built into their jacket, its not a high vis vest over it. They can leave their jacket off and just wear a polo shirt and their stab vest, but if they think they are doing that to avoid being seen they will make their stab vests brighter, its usually done because its hot. The covert stuff is handed off to plain clothes detectives, and the armed response unit in Ireland. Obviously neither wear high visibility clothes. Also, in Ireland the cops are actually called "Guardians of the peace", and their primary role is to desecalate issues and restore peace. Detectives are the ones who investigate stuff, and armed response units are the ones who carry out raids.
In australia, due to the fact that the country is relatively sparse in population, highway driving is a must. For driving long periods you NEED your focus. RBT (random breath testing) was introduced as a measure to prevent drunk drivers from trying to drive home and endanger lives. RBT means you need a plan B.
Mate RBTs are no more then thinly veiled cash grab for minor traffic infringements like missing valve caps and another example of pushing in laws that sound good on paper but are abused (and yes cops have been caught abusing rbt rules to unnecessarily pull over and harass people) such as the new banning u16 from social media. Unless they aren't gonna enforce it the inky way is government digital id which yet again. Sounds good on paper to some (parents should parent not the government) but will be used exclusively to enforce the Orwellian mis/disinformation laws
i live in belgium and yesterday a police officer stopped a van from standing in the middle of the road and he stood on the road knowing that people would see his jacket and he stopped the van from standing in the way
The amount of times my aunt got stopped for “your car matches our description” is absurd. Never doing anything illegal, and still try to step over the rights
@@kingofgrim4761 they do have to investigate you if the missing car that you match did something serious like run from police or something. So unfortunately complain as you will that excuse will never change since removing it would cause more problems then it would solve. Police should have the power to investigate or else there’s no point in having them. Good news is that the solution to that problem is easy, find a unique looking car instead of a casual or trendy one and then it’s pretty easy to call bs on them if you somehow still get pulled over.
American police also unloaded three full pistol magazines into a car with a man who was already tested for firearms and shown to have none because an acorn landed on the roof of a car
funny how every country in the developed world is a million times safer than america, sometimes i feel american laws are a joke, most people in the world just wants to live in normal orderly civilisation like Japan or singapore and have zero interests in flouting the laws, america goes too far with all these laws and constitutions and police etiqutte in a society that enables all the sociopaths and dysfunctional eejjiots in life the problem with america is americans(at least those who are intentionally causing problems or feels the need to cause problems in life) think they can get away with everything, and a high percentage of these jokers the authorities have to deal with everyday u know they did something or is trying to hide something they did, so they invoke this and invoke that and call upon this and that and spent half the time trying to rebel against the authorities and having psuedo intellectual arguments or suiting up with lawyers.......and its like that because its literally an industry in america, justified for profit, society is dysfunctional because they want americans to act out and cause trouble and fight authorities all the time so they can milk it for all its worth. its different in east asia and europe, people want to live productive lives and do productive things, the law is seen as something to be respected and to cooperate with.....u will never seen anything in taiwan or hong kong or japan or singapore or south korea or china trying to mess with authorities or refusing to cooperate, unless ur a criminal of course.....their societies have extremely low tolerance and strict laws for troublemakers.
In Australia it is called random breath testing and we do it just in case someone is drunk or at the time when people go out to drink because we don’t want anyone getting hurt
Here in Australia part of why we have so many stops by cops is specifically to prevent drunk and drugged driving. Given how much we drink alcohol here and how rampant drug use is for us, it’s kind of required to make sure the roads stay safe
@@bigbrowntau AND you get to go home (not in your car) and come to court later for a fine and license suspension. No gaol, no beatings, not shootings! Amazing!
The point of having police wearing bright colours is that any criminals will see them and then be deterred from committing said crime, also they’re meant to be people the public can turn to for help so they need to stand out
@@hope7237 Its not the main reason, its the main reason in the USA, but its not in Ireland. All uniforms except armed response are high vis, its not like in this image, its actually made into the police jacket, the shoulders of their coat are bright yellow. They cant remove the high vis from their uniform. They can just remove their jacket. The main reason for it is so you cant hit a cop and say you didn't know you just hit a cop. In the USA you can get away with fighting a cop, they have to scream out "STOP POLICE" or "STOP FBI, FBI". because they are meant to not be seen. But if your cops are wearing bright yellow, and they walk up behind you with their batton as you are mugging someone, do they need to scream out "Stop police" or can they just smack you across your back? In Ireland they can just smack you across your back. So if you swing a knife, throw a punch, shoot toward them, then no judge is going to believe you were not trying to fight/kill a cop. Also the police in Ireland are actually called "Guardians of the peace". Their primary role is to deescalate issues and restore peace.
As someone who lives in New Zealand, you have next to no risk of being randomly pulled over for alchohol testing unless its late at night or a public holiday.
He wasn't so much talking about risk as the legal protections against it (at least without reason) in the US which are simply lacking in other countries.
Something about over here in Australia that you Americans might not get, we are not afraid of the police, I’ve heard a lot of stuff about how they’re a lot more violent over there in America.
@ThisRedSheepYT bro fr. We don't fear cops over here too. Cops killing civilians and getting away with it is common in US I heard. I don't remember the last time a cop killed someone here
@@ThisRedSheepYT It varies. The city cops who get stationed in rural towns tend to be awful people because they don't respect the local norms and they generally dislike rural people. Local cops are pretty good though. My friend got caught doing burnouts and while the cops were required to impound the car they told us where we should do it next time so we don't get caught.
fun fact, in new Zealand some places, cops will go to main roads or smaller roads on a late night on friday Saturday sunday, or any holidays, and force you to do a breath test to drive though, cops also park cars facing oncoming traffic to get you if you do a u-turn
Fair enough though, I guess it's better to get the drunkards off the road than hitting a guy on a motorcycle because they the drivers can't see straight I'm from NZ, and i've had a couple family members hit off of bikes because people were driving while on drugs, which really sucked. I'm just glad they're all fine now, though
Same as Aus, people actually know the main stops for it and go different routes during Friday and the weekends - not because they’re drinking but because they don’t want to be bothered LOL.
Yeah booze busses are a good idea. They also sit on the roads facing oncoming traffic to check for racing especially on the super straight long roads at night.
You can be stopped randomly for an alcohol check in Canada too. They even have blitz checks referred to as the R.I.D.E program (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere). These pop up commonly close to holidays like Christmas and New Year's which commonly involve feasting and parties.
Videos of American cops doing paperwork or arguing about whether they have enough for a search warrant or going through suppression hearings don't get a lot of attention.
You wear bright colors if your goal is to help and rescue people. You wear dark colors if your goal is to sneak up on and surprise people. Fundamental difference in the philosophy of the role of police.
In the US, they used to wear bright blue. Studies showed that more intimidating police uniforms resulted in lower likelihood that people would resist arrest. So although its sad our police look scary, it is safer. Dress like a clown and you wont be taken seriously by the criminals.
@@r.rodriguez4991 Not really. Police in the U.S. actually don't have any legal obligation to help/rescue people: they are only legally required to "stop crimes". As such, police departments are more focused on catching criminals than on assisting law-abiding citizens. And so it makes sense that they wouldn't wear high-visibility clothing.
@@Caiden_waslivehonestly I’ve very rarely seen any police here in the UK, I live on the outskirts of Coventry and I’ve never seen any police on foot here
@@robustanybody5138 You mean the guy who plead guilty to religiously aggravated harassment, having an article with intent to destroy or damage property (of a religious building) and obstructing or resisting a constable. Oh yeah that guy
I live in Belgium and the police don't wear light colors but the car has light colour.But some times they have a litle bit of orange or green bit most of the time they don't or they have security vest.
I’m from Australia and our police are really nice. My dad was caught speeding multiple times, and when he gets pulled over he simply goes “sorry mate yeah I was speeding” the cop just simply hands him the ticket and that’s that
Fun fact: American cops are actually not hard to see. Despite the dark colors, you can still easily spot them due to their average weight of around 150kg, or 594712lbs
Note about the police in Australia and New Zealand, the “checking for alcohol” pullover isn’t to check for any alcohol in the vehicle, it’s usually a breath test to make sure you aren’t drunk driving.
Dutch police can aslo pull you over for random alcohol checks. We even sometimes have random check points. They will signal if you can pass by or have to make a stop. We also have scooter checks with rollerbanks which basically check if your scooter or nowadays electric bicycle was illigaly altered to go faster than the legal limit. Scooters arent supposed to go beyond 45 km/u and electric bicycles aren't supposed to aide beyond 25 km/u. We currently have problems with a new type of electric bicycles that can go to 50 km/u and don't recuire either a helmet or any type of driving licence. So we get accidents of 12-16 year old kids going on roundabouts with 50 and then getting an accident. Fyi, cars do roundabouts here with 25-28 km/u depending on whether it has a bicycle lane or not.
In Hungary the electric rollers are the same problem. No regulations. There is a video on the web that a Dad going with 50km/h in the busy traffic in Budapest while his BABY is on his back in a carrier. While roller is not regulated it's an "endangering an underage" fellony.
False info. Car chase can cause harm to other traffic, therefore if somebody breaks the speed limit, cameras will take the photo of the number plate. Few days later, the envelope will be sent to your door 😊
@@CS1.6de_dust2 I don't know if it's true or not because I was just making a referance but You didn't even denied anything I said. The point was police won't even try to CATCH you. So you can freely race without police intervening. Getting a fine is a whole another thing.
i'm Belgian. Our police have different uniforms. Not only for their jobs but also for the time in the day. It's honestly really comforting to see them around the place. When we're at a mall there is police as well (sometimes even military).
Same reason why around here police will post on social media telling you where the speed cameras are. Because the goal of speed cameras isn't to catch people speeding, it's to discourage them from doing it in the first place.
Singapore police force has somewhat mixture of Japan's Koban box and american patrol allowing the police to interact more with citizens and tourists. this ensure the tourist safe when travelling around the city
I'll be danged if cops just sit at the side of the road assuming about 20-30% of cars look suspiciously like they are being driven by someone drunk and/or high.
@@btf_flotsam478 "god damnit, he cut me off!" or "that guy almost hit me!" all quotes from people who wish they could give em a ticket for bad driving, but they aren't cops. how many bad drivers do you see? I see a ton where I'm from.
In Norway🇳🇴 U can't get pulled over and get an ticket, the ticket will come to u with e-mail and how: first they have cameras everywhere, the cameras see ur car plate then the plate is in database that shows ur name, ID everything and the it comes too ur e-mail
Some places, police stand on the side of the road and if they point a painted cane at your car, you must pull over and receive a citation. Otherwise, the police will use your license plates to find you and things will be way worse.
Seeing the police & prevent a crime is better than playing around & wanting for the crime to happen & then situation becomes too late. So brighter clothing seems better.
We allow it because of how our society views police and also since we have a low population and long drive distances to really anywhere, being impaired is incredibly dangerous to both yourself and others. We do things called RBT’s which are random points in areas where everyone gets checked for alcohol, is it annoying- not really us Aussies always give us more time when we plan things in case of road works or traffic so it doesn’t matter. Just makes everyone safer.
Ok guys, who's going to tell him that cops in the US also stop you for random bs, just because they can?....they're not allowed, but that's just a minor inconvenience in the law they ignore😂
True, when I was a teenager, I was pulled over at night while driving my van. The claimed the license plate was registered to a different vehicle. They opened the side door to see who/what was in there. Then they let me go. I went to the cop shop the next day with proof that my license was registered to my van. They looked at me like they had no idea why I was there. That means the other cops never filed a report.
The biggest difference between US cops and European cops is that you only need a blank criminal record and about 2-3 months of training to get nearly unquestionable authority over others, while in Europe you have to train for at least 2-5 years, depending on the country and you have to go through all kinds of background checks and mental evaluation.
Australian here. Before RBT's were made, there was an average of around 3000 deaths per year, mostly due to drunk driving incidents. Usually during this time, there'd be blood alcohol concentration levels around 0.15 to 0.2%, which, considering the maximum today is 0.05% for people on their opens, meant they were probably a little tipsy. It wasn't until 1976 that the state of Victoria introduced its first RBT station (met with some backlash of course), but from then on it kinda became a widespread thing due to it's success. So yeah, Australia lore
In Australia they don’t “pull you over” randomly, they have designated RBT (random breath test) stations clearly marked with cones, signs that say “RBT”, cop cars, and cops dressed in hi-vis. They randomly direct cars off the road into the station, check their drivers license, breathalyze them, and if they’re all good they drive away. No searching of vehicles, very brief, chill interaction that only takes a minute and keeps the roads safer.
They can pull you over for random breath and drug testing, I've been driving with mates when it's happened to them. Usually happens in country areas and not in the city. It doesn't happen very often, you hardly see highway patrol out and about these days, but whenever they're on the prowl they usually have far better things to do.
They can pull you over at any time. I finished a late shift at the pub i worked at about 1am and i was driving home i was in my driveway when i was pulled over.
Fun fact: In Uruguay, police officers wear dark blue uniforms and sometimes a black uniform... And they use a white car with blue and the tipical blue and red lights...
Posing a criminal about to break in somewhere not doing so because he spotted a cop as a bad thing is an insane take Also fun fact a lot of Irish and all northern Irish cops are gun trained and are allowed to carry weapons like American cops, I will honestly say guns aren't the problem training is and phycology exams are
It’s not an insane take, if someone is going to break into a house and they stop because they see a cop, they’ll just wait until the cop leaves and then break in
@-TheMachineGod- police aren't stealth operatives either way it's not like they're going to be hiding in the bushes the same would happen if someone saw an American cop in darker clothes if the robber sees the police vice versa is probably true they're aren't just gonna go "hmm well that suspicious person nust be a stand up guy and definitely isn't doing anything suspicious" like mate think before you speak
Exactly!!! I am left leaning American (actually left leaning, not an American democrat who thinks they're left leaning😅) but anyway, I'm from the south and we LOVE our guns and yeah, they aren't the issue. I don't want to get into all the details because we'd be here all day, but yeah most gun owners are very responsible and careful because we LIVE HERE and see what can go wrong if you dont handle them with the respect they require. The ones who don't get shot, die, or go to jail all while giving us a bad name😅
@@greenberry6019 tbh I don't think it is, it may not be anymore but Ireland was a very violent place it's just the pure fact that they train essentially every person to hold a gun and if they even have the stable mind to do so. It's the same in Britain certain officers carry pistols and long arms but have to be specifically trained and selected it's just that here in Ireland they say "if you aren't of stable mind to hold a gun you shouldn't be a police officer at all" and that's fair
In my opinion bright colors are better, in the scetch the cop was upset that he didn't commit a crime, but that should be a good thing as high vis will make them visible to deter crime, and the high vis vests will help with traffic control
I'd like to expand on mike's point about Australia's police: it is common practice among officers of Australian law to set their cars up as alcohol checkpoints. Furthermore, it is a common to see a alcohol checkpoint set up on large highways. This practice is commonly referred to as a "Booze bus", as there is a modified bus at these alcohol checkpoints. source: seeing this practice take place.
One of the police forces (one with military-like rankings, opposed to the Polizia which has nothing to do with the military) in Italy has a similar name, Carabinieri! They have a black/red uniform 😊
In Brazil, almost every weekend there are “blitz”. It is a group of DMV officers and police officers strategically placed to arrest and charge people for DUI. They stop almost every driver that passes on that road and you are obligated to make a DUI test or else you will be charged with the same fine as you would receive for DUI (but in this case, you only receives a fine and is not criminally charged)
Im Australian and I honestly never even thought about how it might be weird that you get pulled over for a breath test. We just have random stops sometimes, usually near busy roads or stadiums and I always thought it was a pretty sensible thing. Plus if you dont wanna be pulled over, just don't drink and drive.

It’s not exactly dumb for cops to be super visible. Proof being the fact that everyone slows down when they see a cop car. Knowing they’re present deters crime. There’s little purpose to keeping them invisible unless you want to arrest someone after they’ve already killed a man😅.
Edit: ffs, I’m not saying “you shouldn’t break the law in police presence”, I’m saying criminals don’t tend to commit crime in police presence so it’s effective at preventing them from committing crime. Not that hard of a concept to understand.
Edit 2: It should be a combination of both. One to deter by known presence and the other to deter by not knowing if they are.
In fact in new south wales in australia we even have signs up warning of where speed cameras are. You’d think it would just mean people speed where they know there aren’t any stationary cameras but just putting the warnings up lowers the offense rate by keeping the consequence present in driver’s minds.
Yeah but in the US cops are mostly there to generate revenue for the towns/cities they police. Yeah they'll help you if they *have* to. But they also have quotas of tickets to write per month and get written up if they fail to generate enough income. So being less visible helps. The idea being they can sneak up on you and catch you slipping up easier. Same reason we have so many "undercover" police cars.
@@Nexus-Technologywell the quota isn't just a financially bound prediction. It's a mathematical one. Its less likely that a town is just filled with Sunday drivers and more likely the cops aren't doing their jobs.
@@Nexus-TechnologyI’m a deputy for 5 years and we don’t have a quota lmao

“American police can respond within six minutes” was the funniest joke in here 😂
I'd assume that's a national average that includes small towns where six minutes(or less) is all it takes to travel across town.
yes and its also the national low average, houston for example has a 6 min average. but on the flip side, New Orleans average is close to 150 minutes @AdmiralBlackstar
My neighborhood is 3 minutes, on a bad day. One of the neighbors hit their "police" panic alarm instead of "medical". Within three minutes we had three different communities' cruisers followed by a deputy a half minute later. Fire response is about 5 minutes since they're coming from stations.

@@MrShadowThiefit’s less about the criminals being unarmed, and more about them not being armed with guns.
In theory police are for public safety - reflective outfits are good for general public being able to notice them and going over to get help. It’s also good for the “feeling” of security, if there’s consistent police presence - you regularly spot officers going about their day when they don’t blend in, and it acts as a deterrent in itself.
If it’s a high stakes surveillance job, or something that requires undercover presence in general, then yeah - it’d be silly to wear neon outfits. But they don’t. The reflective clothing is just for general duties.

Not only that but we have Póilíniú Bóithre. Or for my non Irish speaking friends, the roads policing unit. Mainly patrolling motorways, setting up checkpoints, testing for alcohol etc.
in australia theres also a pretty common thing where cops will set up shop on a main road, with a booze bus nearby to put offenders in for more testing (like for othr drugs, so they know what to charge you for) and they'll test *everyone*. im talking 5-8 cops, maybe more, main road, testing almost every if not every single driver. just because.
"just because" are you kidding me? have you seen the amount of alcoholics in here?
In Sweden police can frisk you at will if they consider your appearence to be typical of a criminal, not even joking. They can also confiscate your items and clothing including even your phone, if you can’t give proof that you bought them legally by showing that you have a job.

i think the covert stuff is handled by different department no?
@@fltfathin It is, in Ireland all cops have high vis built into their jacket, its not a high vis vest over it. They can leave their jacket off and just wear a polo shirt and their stab vest, but if they think they are doing that to avoid being seen they will make their stab vests brighter, its usually done because its hot. The covert stuff is handed off to plain clothes detectives, and the armed response unit in Ireland. Obviously neither wear high visibility clothes. Also, in Ireland the cops are actually called "Guardians of the peace", and their primary role is to desecalate issues and restore peace. Detectives are the ones who investigate stuff, and armed response units are the ones who carry out raids.
In australia, due to the fact that the country is relatively sparse in population, highway driving is a must. For driving long periods you NEED your focus. RBT (random breath testing) was introduced as a measure to prevent drunk drivers from trying to drive home and endanger lives.
RBT means you need a plan B.
Then why do they RBT in the suburbs and cities?
@@rentamobtv exclusively in them
Mate RBTs are no more then thinly veiled cash grab for minor traffic infringements like missing valve caps and another example of pushing in laws that sound good on paper but are abused (and yes cops have been caught abusing rbt rules to unnecessarily pull over and harass people) such as the new banning u16 from social media. Unless they aren't gonna enforce it the inky way is government digital id which yet again.

the problem with america is americans(at least those who are intentionally causing problems or feels the need to cause problems in life) think they can get away with everything, and a high percentage of these jokers the authorities have to deal with everyday u know they did something or is trying to hide something they did, so they invoke this and invoke that and call upon this and that and spent half the time trying to rebel against the authorities and having psuedo intellectual arguments or suiting up with lawyers.......and its like that because its literally an industry in america, justified for profit, society is dysfunctional because they want americans to act out and cause trouble and fight authorities all the time so they can milk it for all its worth.
its different in east asia and europe, people want to live productive lives and do productive things, the law is seen as something to be respected and to cooperate with.....u will never seen anything in taiwan or hong kong or japan or singapore or south korea or china trying to mess with authorities or refusing to cooperate, unless ur a criminal of course.....their societies have extremely low tolerance and strict laws for troublemakers.

@@myoung3411main reason
@@hope7237 Its not the main reason, its the main reason in the USA, but its not in Ireland. All uniforms except armed response are high vis, its not like in this image, its actually made into the police jacket, the shoulders of their coat are bright yellow. They cant remove the high vis from their uniform. They can just remove their jacket.
The main reason for it is so you cant hit a cop and say you didn't know you just hit a cop. In the USA you can get away with fighting a cop, they have to scream out "STOP POLICE" or "STOP FBI, FBI". because they are meant to not be seen. But if your cops are wearing bright yellow, and they walk up behind you with their batton as you are mugging someone, do they need to scream out "Stop police" or can they just smack you across your back? In Ireland they can just smack you across your back.
So if you swing a knife, throw a punch, shoot toward them, then no judge is going to believe you were not trying to fight/kill a cop.
Also the police in Ireland are actually called "Guardians of the peace". Their primary role is to deescalate issues and restore peace.

Local cops are pretty good though. My friend got caught doing burnouts and while the cops were required to impound the car they told us where we should do it next time so we don't get caught.
fun fact, in new Zealand some places, cops will go to main roads or smaller roads on a late night on friday Saturday sunday, or any holidays, and force you to do a breath test to drive though, cops also park cars facing oncoming traffic to get you if you do a u-turn
Fair enough though, I guess it's better to get the drunkards off the road than hitting a guy on a motorcycle because they the drivers can't see straight
I'm from NZ, and i've had a couple family members hit off of bikes because people were driving while on drugs, which really sucked. I'm just glad they're all fine now, though
Same as Aus, people actually know the main stops for it and go different routes during Friday and the weekends - not because they’re drinking but because they don’t want to be bothered LOL.
It really deters drunk driving in Australia and New Zealand, because as they say in NSW, "RBT means you need a plan B".

We do things called RBT’s which are random points in areas where everyone gets checked for alcohol, is it annoying- not really us Aussies always give us more time when we plan things in case of road works or traffic so it doesn’t matter. Just makes everyone safer.
Ok guys, who's going to tell him that cops in the US also stop you for random bs, just because they can?....they're not allowed, but that's just a minor inconvenience in the law they ignore😂
Never happened to me. I suspect its mostly wrong doers pretending they were innocent.
True, when I was a teenager, I was pulled over at night while driving my van. The claimed the license plate was registered to a different vehicle. They opened the side door to see who/what was in there. Then they let me go. I went to the cop shop the next day with proof that my license was registered to my van. They looked at me like they had no idea why I was there. That means the other cops never filed a report.
Exactly, look at George Floyd JUST as an example
@@nyasha2203 he had the police called on him for counterfeit money So it wasn’t for no reason.
@@nyasha2203 maybe he should have stopped resisting arrest and playing the race card, he is a criminal at that time.
The biggest difference between US cops and European cops is that you only need a blank criminal record and about 2-3 months of training to get nearly unquestionable authority over others, while in Europe you have to train for at least 2-5 years, depending on the country and you have to go through all kinds of background checks and mental evaluation.
Japan: Police! There's an intruder in my house!!
USA: Police, there's half an intruder lying on my living room floor.
is he dead?
I am an australian and that is NOT how we sound, gave me a good laugh though😂
Naur. You’re lying, mate

In the UK the police also do random pull overs to check alcohol.
Legal limit is 35 with a breathalyser
Thats dependent on region- in Scotland the legal limit is far lower and, I believe, cops are even allowed to enforce zero tolerance.
It’s probably a British commonwealth thing because Canada has that too
35 what? In Aus it's 0.050% Blood Alcohol
Us police classic dialogue - stop resisting, shots fired, suspect down, suspect was resisting..... 😂😂😂😂
Australian here. Before RBT's were made, there was an average of around 3000 deaths per year, mostly due to drunk driving incidents. Usually during this time, there'd be blood alcohol concentration levels around 0.15 to 0.2%, which, considering the maximum today is 0.05% for people on their opens, meant they were probably a little tipsy. It wasn't until 1976 that the state of Victoria introduced its first RBT station (met with some backlash of course), but from then on it kinda became a widespread thing due to it's success.
So yeah, Australia lore
Onigiri? Dont you mean jelly filled donuts?

In Australia they don’t “pull you over” randomly, they have designated RBT (random breath test) stations clearly marked with cones, signs that say “RBT”, cop cars, and cops dressed in hi-vis. They randomly direct cars off the road into the station, check their drivers license, breathalyze them, and if they’re all good they drive away. No searching of vehicles, very brief, chill interaction that only takes a minute and keeps the roads safer.
They can pull you over for random breath and drug testing, I've been driving with mates when it's happened to them. Usually happens in country areas and not in the city. It doesn't happen very often, you hardly see highway patrol out and about these days, but whenever they're on the prowl they usually have far better things to do.
Have never been pulled over for it before, you sure they don't do it if they see a person weaving a little Asian indicator?
Yes but they can also randomly pull you over for random breath and drug testing doesnt exclusively happen at rbt's bro 😂
They can pull you over at any time. I finished a late shift at the pub i worked at about 1am and i was driving home i was in my driveway when i was pulled over.
About 1 year ago I got a warning for speeding, and it wasn’t me driving so I don’t know why I said “I got a warning”.
Fun fact: In Uruguay, police officers wear dark blue uniforms and sometimes a black uniform... And they use a white car with blue and the tipical blue and red lights...
Posing a criminal about to break in somewhere not doing so because he spotted a cop as a bad thing is an insane take
Also fun fact a lot of Irish and all northern Irish cops are gun trained and are allowed to carry weapons like American cops, I will honestly say guns aren't the problem training is and phycology exams are
It’s not an insane take, if someone is going to break into a house and they stop because they see a cop, they’ll just wait until the cop leaves and then break in
@-TheMachineGod- police aren't stealth operatives either way it's not like they're going to be hiding in the bushes the same would happen if someone saw an American cop in darker clothes if the robber sees the police vice versa is probably true they're aren't just gonna go "hmm well that suspicious person nust be a stand up guy and definitely isn't doing anything suspicious" like mate think before you speak
Exactly!!! I am left leaning American (actually left leaning, not an American democrat who thinks they're left leaning😅) but anyway, I'm from the south and we LOVE our guns and yeah, they aren't the issue. I don't want to get into all the details because we'd be here all day, but yeah most gun owners are very responsible and careful because we LIVE HERE and see what can go wrong if you dont handle them with the respect they require. The ones who don't get shot, die, or go to jail all while giving us a bad name😅
But the fact they have unnecessary military gear doesn't help. Some US departments have actual armored vehicles.
@@greenberry6019 tbh I don't think it is, it may not be anymore but Ireland was a very violent place it's just the pure fact that they train essentially every person to hold a gun and if they even have the stable mind to do so.
It's the same in Britain certain officers carry pistols and long arms but have to be specifically trained and selected it's just that here in Ireland they say "if you aren't of stable mind to hold a gun you shouldn't be a police officer at all" and that's fair
As an Australian that’s how we speak 👍
Brother no it's not. I died inside at that accent. Love law by mike but he's no voice actor
@@The_Court_Poet I think it may have been sarcasm 😂
@@The_Court_Poet I know it’s not how we speak and it’s kinda annoying when people think that’s how we speak

In France, police also stop poeple randomly to check if they are drunk
In my opinion bright colors are better, in the scetch the cop was upset that he didn't commit a crime, but that should be a good thing as high vis will make them visible to deter crime, and the high vis vests will help with traffic control
Tips: Japanese police officer won't bring you Onigiri. Katsu-don as well.
I'd like to expand on mike's point about Australia's police:
it is common practice among officers of Australian law to set their cars up as alcohol checkpoints. Furthermore, it is a common to see a alcohol checkpoint set up on large highways. This practice is commonly referred to as a "Booze bus", as there is a modified bus at these alcohol checkpoints.
source: seeing this practice take place.
Plpolice in the us also have the least amount of training among most countries
In Egypt, we have the same thing as Japan...
But it's always empty 😂
What i like about Australia is that we have the mounted police force which is just police on horses.
Usa has police horses too.
Don't forget the segways XD
Im pretty sure most countries have mounted police units. In Germany they are often used in riot units.
Кстати, а в Беларуси у полицейских есть полицейские тракторы.
“Narr” hits hard 💀
😡
Buddy is high for thinking police respond in 6 minutes 😂
Fun fact: The British Police is a rock band.
I’m Australian and my dad once got pulled over for an alcohol check and boy did I FREAK out
In Chile, police wear a dark green uniform and they are called “carabineros” (from the gun carbine)
I thinked the Carabineros are mostly a Special Forces or a Gendermarie like police unit...
One of the police forces (one with military-like rankings, opposed to the Polizia which has nothing to do with the military) in Italy has a similar name, Carabinieri! They have a black/red uniform 😊
Mike is stylish and clean no matter what he wears. I aspire to be like him
In Brazil, almost every weekend there are “blitz”. It is a group of DMV officers and police officers strategically placed to arrest and charge people for DUI. They stop almost every driver that passes on that road and you are obligated to make a DUI test or else you will be charged with the same fine as you would receive for DUI (but in this case, you only receives a fine and is not criminally charged)
Our police is also dressed for war, to kill not to make friends like the gringos, they are warriors not peace keepers.
Im Australian and I honestly never even thought about how it might be weird that you get pulled over for a breath test. We just have random stops sometimes, usually near busy roads or stadiums and I always thought it was a pretty sensible thing. Plus if you dont wanna be pulled over, just don't drink and drive.
