    So…

    saw alcohol
    previous open container
    improper display of tags
    a restriction on vehicle lamps
    no seat belt
    purchase or possession of alcohol by a minor
    refusal to submit to arrest
    71 in a 60-mile-per-hour zone

    So she’s pulled over for driving 11 over on a highway… which is kind of normal… and may be in possession of alcohol (not open container, not DUI). He likely tossed every non-moving violation he could think of punitively because she dared to “resist” and didn’t show the respect he expected.

    Sound like just consequences for driving while black in the USA.
