Lambo Passenger Says To The Cops: 'Do you know who I am?'
 
Quote:

Atlanta (CNN) -- Former NBA star Allen Iverson launched an expletive-ridden tirade against police when a car belonging to him was pulled over for a traffic violation last week, at one point telling the officer, "Take the vehicle, I have 10 more," according to a police report.

Iverson, 35, was a passenger in a grey Lamborghini, spied by an Atlanta officer changing lanes without signaling about 6 p.m. on March 30, according to the police report obtained by CNN.

The driver, identified in the report as Antwuan Clisby, couldn't produce any documentation for the vehicle, the report said. He then told the officer his passenger needed to leave the vehicle to eat dinner, and the officer said no one was leaving until the investigation was complete.

With that, Iverson became "irate," according to the police report, saying, "I'm the (expletive) passenger." The officer radioed for backup, and a second unit arrived, according to the report. Clisby and Iverson were asked to exit the vehicle, while Iverson continued to curse at the officer, the report said.

When police scanned the identification number of the vehicle, which belongs to Iverson, it was found to have tags that expired in 2009. Iverson, former MVP for the Philadelphia 76ers, was told his car would be towed.

"Take the vehicle, I have 10 more," Iverson said, according to the report. "Police don't have anything else (expletive) to do except (expletive) with me." He then asked, "Do you know who I am?"

The officer wrote in his report that "For the next 20 minutes, Mr. Iverson went on and on about who he was. I stated to Mr. Iverson, 'It really doesn't matter who you are. You tried to conceal your vehicle with a fake drive-out tag due to you not paying for your tags.' "

Iverson then said, "I make more money than you will in 10 years," according to the report.

Clisby, the driver, asked the officers, "Would you want to pay $10,000 for a tag?" the report said.

The car was towed, and Iverson later "came back and apologized for disrespecting the police," according to the police report. "He stated he was just upset about his car."

Clisby was cited for failure to signal while changing lanes and the expired tag, the report said.

Getting pulled over for no signal is lame. The cops were jealious of the car and looked for a reason to pull it over. However that doesn't justify the reaction from iverson.

Obviously money doesn't buy manners.

It's not lame. That's a moving violation. I hate people who don't signal before they change lanes. Especially if they do it in traffic. :shakes head:

Especially when your signaling, and in the process of changing lanes, and they just abruptly move over in front of you.

I can see a cop pulling someone over for doing something stupid that most causes an accident. But I see a lot of traffic laws used by cops inorder to pull you over to look for more violations.

Well use your turn signal and don't get pulled over. :icon17:

I hate to say it, but I side 100% with the copper on this one.

Also, sounds like the officer handled it very well.

At least Iverson apologized for acting like a spoiled jerk.

LOL ghetto ppl with money crack me up! I see sooo many ghetto ppl (on a weekly basis) in multi-million dollar mansions that have almost NO furniture inside, who DO NOT TIP either btw, and about 3 exotics in the garage... wtf?? go learn how to properly handle your finances!

And I'm sorry but an apology doesn't mean zhit. What's done is done - an apology doesn't erase or change history

+1 to that.

Pulled over for failure to signal while changing lanes?!? Douche cop right there. Btw, in the report, the officers are always the good guys. That's similar to getting pulled over for speeding 1mph over the speed limit.

how many times have we seen a cop turn on his lights and fly through a light? I personaly talked to a state trooper the other day who told me he had his friend radar him at 155 in his srt8 challenger on Sunrise Highway for fun and to see how accurate his speedo was, I have 5-6 pictures of cops talking on their cell phone while driving.. I know and am friends with many cops but many are hypocrits and do more illegal things than the public. Steriods, pills, etc... its pretty alarming once you get to know some of them... everyone has a wild side, including cops, and in this instance i think its lame to pull over a lambo for not signaling because obviously the driver is successful in what he does and that ticket will effect him in no way what so ever...

BUT i think its pathetic his car isnt registered up to date...
