It turns out we weren’t the only ones surprised and disgusted by the actions of the three emergency response nerds in Colorado. It got the attention of local news media, and Colorado police.

This story was broken on eLightbars, and gained worldwide attention after it was re-posted on sites like this one.
May this serve as a warning to all those who think it’s okay to impersonate police or other emergency personell – even with the best intentions.
fuckin nerds deserve it
I will say they have some balls to be walking up on vehicles in the median late at night! i wonder how long before they walked up on a bad guy who would plug them full of holes?
They should have learned by now not to put a video of themselves doing stupid stuff on the internet. There have been literally dozens of people arrested and convicted of crimes after putting video of their exploits.
That’s great if people want to help out. But if the only reason you are equiping your vehicle with lights is to go on “patrol” at night, there’s a problem. Sure, if I’m going down the highway and I see someone in need of help, I’ll stop – but it’s not the sole reason for being on the highway.
Aye, what exkalibur said… But yeah, what’s with kids nowadays, filming silly stuff like this… Kinda like the Gang Bangers in Toronto. Sheesh.
I like how they linked it with the murder of that kid… typical journalism… however, these guys need the book throwing at them to be honest.
Here is a backup ride for the whackers:
