Is ridiculous the right word?

This is hilarious/pathetic. A police officer in Florida pulled over a woman and told her he was giving her a ticket for holding her cell phone in her right hand. The problem? The woman doesn’t have a right hand! She had a good attitude about it (they showed body cam footage), but he insisted he saw what he saw and still gave her the ticket! Obviously, she started the process of fighting the ticket, and once she got a copy of the body cam footage her story went viral. This apparently (finally!) embarrassed him enough where he dismissed the ticket “due to lack of evidence “. Ya don’t say!
I’m sensitive to police officers because my uncle (on my dad’s side) died in the line of duty. But this guy was ridiculous. She wasn’t holding a cell phone, and she had no right hand! His stubbornness really makes him look bad.

He sounds like a dipsh**t, Cops like that is why alot of people don't like cops. I have to admit though..the last one I talked to was extremely nice.

It’s a terrible job. Rewarding when you help people, of course, but so many people treat you badly just by the uniform you wear. I remember I pulled up next to a police officer guarding our complex, and he rolled down his window. I thanked him for doing his job and told him I appreciated him, and he was at a total loss for words. He sure wasn’t expecting that.
Then there are those who should really be in a different line of work. I mean, really should be in a different line of work.

Ridiculous is a good word along with absurd. He should have just walked away and said sorry when he realized there was no way she could have been holding a cell phone.

Some cops are just so arrogant and try to instill fear in innocent people.
He sounds like one of that kind of a cop.
If he had only given the necessary information, that she was holding a phone, and leave it at that he would have been better off, even though a one-handed person wouldn't be able to hold the steering wheel plus a phone, unless she had it on speaker. But either way he gave TMI and it burned him in the end.

I saw this one pretty funny. Hand to god. 
I once just got off work. I worked swing shift but went to down town area which is always bad at 11 pm because cops circling because where all the bars are.
The light was red and I was stopping, but turned green, so slowed down and kept going. I get lit up. I was turning right. You wanna explain to me why you went right through that red light. You are right sir, it was red but then it turned green. At least this guy did not argue but how aggressive he was had me amazed.
Well, you tell you friends I am the DUI cop, have you had anything to drink, just got off work, give me an hour or two. That is why I always like to show this clip. Good Marines, bad Marines, good cops, bad cops.

When I was a kid, Buford Pusser was seen as a hero for standing up to the State Line Mob in Tennessee. Now, it seems, he was probably part of the mob. The sad reality is that we’re paying these guys and gals a pauper’s salary to put their lives on the line, and the only way they can afford to live is to supplement their income with “ill-gotten goods.” I don’t know if you ever saw the movie Serpico, based on the life of NYPD detective Frank Serpico. He was honest…to the point where it nearly cost him his life.
