This is a shocking video:
https://www.wral.com/ace-perry-pulled-over-by-sampson-county...
+ white cop pulls over black driver (North Carolina)
+ refuses to tell him why he was stopped until he shows ID
+ asks driver questions about company name on his tee-shirt
+ expresses incredulity when driver says he works at the company
+ asks driver other irrelevant personal questions.
+ tells driver he was stopped for driving UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT (doing 65 in a 70)
+ asks driver: "wouldn't you find it suspicious if someone were doing 65 in a 70?"
+ gives driver a WRITTEN WARNING for driving 65 in a 70.
+ brushes off driver's questions saying "I've got stuff to do"
+ Feb 2020
Googling about the case `"Ace Perry" Sampson` it seems no action was taken against the officer. If anyone has an "in" with the ACLU (or similar), the police dept. could use some publicity.
(Strange how some cases don't get the attention they deserve.)
(Note: in response to a now apparently deleted comment: I'm aware that some roads have minimum speed limits. I remember once seeing on a highway: max75 min40. However, 65 in a 70 is just prudence.)

i called Sampson Co just now, and Deputy Snow told me they promoted the officer
[this is where i would post their phone number if the rules didn't tell me not to]
