A shocking Reddit video shows an NYPD SUV swerving around a Queens highway, apparently trying to ram a moped rider and knock them off their vehicle in the middle of traffic.
The 39-second clip, taken by the occupants of a car just behind the officer and posted Wednesday by a Redditor named MelBloccs, captured the SUV attempting to box in the moped by pushing it toward a cement divider on what appears to be the Van Wyck Expressway.
When the moped slowed down and cut back across the lanes, the SUV banked hard and nearly hit the rider again.
The car’s occupants expressed their shock at the cop’s behavior, saying, “Look at this guy – look at him! Oh my god, he’s trying to hit him!”
They also called 311 to report the officer’s behavior and list out his license plate.

Shouldn't be policing anyone with that disposition and lack of discernment🤦🏽
I don't see any pedals.
No wonder citizens hate cops
So in other words we will be investigating ourselves. Too bad the motorcyclist wasn't black, then they'd be forced to actually do something about it.
"It is under internal review." So it means most likely nothing gonna happen. They really need to have independent agencies that investigate police officers.

Doesn’t have his lights on so it must be personal.
"Under internal review" what a joke
Why don't you explain why the officers are doing that? Instead of trying to get ppl worked up here? I'm sure that guy on the bike ain't just a decent guy going about his way in his hardworking day here.
Had they made contact that guy would be in jail for assault on an officer.
Just don't forget that people driving these little motorcycles are the most undisciplined on the road
Remember, there are only a few bad apples…. rolling eyes
Illegals from Venezuela on mopeds in Florida as well… riding with no lights, no following driving rules. It's unbelievable
These scooters don't have any insurance and aren't even registered they shouldn't be on a highway they're a huge problem on NYC roads. Thanks to that cop who made him exit the highway safely 👍
Capital punishment for criminal cops
Largest criminal organisation in America
The head of that police dept: "get me the license plate of that car and arrest everyone inside!!"
If they wanted to they could have but they didn't want to.
This is normal practice in many countries.
That cop is a devil
Real Taxpayers Expect The NYPD To Serve and Protect , Let’s Get These People off The Roads
Don’t Get Involved In Police Business Keep Back
These scooters are worse than the dirt bikers….
Nypd are a gang of criminals.
Citizens go to jail for these type of actions.
What did the rider do?
If it was me I would let him hit me and sue them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
At this point the cop is the criminal …both of them are doing illegal thing ..no sirens 🚨 on 🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣
That's new york
What do you expect the cops to do. There isn’t other way.
100% leftist filming this video
I see no problem with it
This is ridiculous. Amin Hasan beaten on YouTube.
Taking lessons from uk police on how to handle muppets on bikes
Recorded vertically:(
He was probably on his way to commit a crime on that moped. Should have slammed him against the wall.
Criminal moped rider needs to be locked up & sued for millions for endangering the public & not obeying police….
We didn't investigate ourselves and found ourselves not guilty
Guess folks here never saw any videos of the Arkansas State Police pitting motorcycle riders off their bikes at 80 miles an hour…..
