Joethemnmovieman.com said, "..Traffic Stop is another film about injustice designed to make your blood boil." but what made my blood boil was that I wasted 30min of my life watching what would happen to anyone who doesn't follow the instructions of a Peace Officer. Injustice does occur, yet this wasn't it. I'm quite astonished that all the Profession Critics are trembling out their praises. A better documentary would be "how political correctness warps our cognitive reality". "What am I supposed to learn from this?" She asks herself..how about, "Listen to instructions."? I hope she teaches her students that thinking and acting for yourself is not in their best interest if their directly disobeying instructions from a Peace Officer. Had she put her feet in, and closed the door, and was then attacked by the cop...boom, lawsuit heaven... but she messed up, and she's going to eat the legal fees.

I watched the first 3 minutes and I didn't see any big problem with what the police officer did. She was asked to step back in the car. She was hesitant and began with excuses why not to. Then the officer saw she was lying (had no wallet to go to the store) and he became suspicious. He asked for driver license several times and she argued and didn't comply. He then tells her to get out of the car, and she resisted.BTW, this is actually how majority of these so-called abuse cases. They don't comply with lawful orders ad resits arrest, and then complain the cop uses force.Why did we need the background sob story building up to this? Totally useless for this story. and where was the cop interview?There are definitely unjustified abuses, but from what I have seen they are rare.

It was clear that the person was evading the cop and not cooperating. The cop acted unprofessionally after his patience wore thin.

I was excited to watch this but within the first 10 minutes could already distinguish this was not a true documentary, rather a political view and biased storytelling. Using the old trick of emotional attachment was way too obvious.. Breaion's own recounts and commentary of her own life became a 30 minute boasting party of "look how great and wonderful I am". All relatablity to her as a person went out the window with her arrogance. I left feeling... not pity towards her, not anger toward Law Enforcement like she wanted but rather a greater disconnect to her life and story than before. It's a documentary and for that I found watching the footage from the incident the most interesting thing about the film. However, I was highly disappointed in the lack of unbiased storytelling and would have appreciated Breaion taking ownership and accountability for at least one of her actions..I wanted to and would have related more to a person who can show me they aren't perfect yet are still good. When someone claims and attempts to show their life as all good and they do no wrong, it's unrelatable. Sad to give this such a low rating!
