Jacksonville traffic stop prompts questions about drivers’ legal rights

A video that quickly went viral on Sunday, showing a 22-year-old man being hit by police during a traffic stop, has raised questions about drivers’ rights when being pulled over by police. “You’re within your right to question the reason for the stop,” News4JAX Crime and Safety Analyst Tom Hackney said. “To demand that the officer pull up a law or show me the justification... I say this all the time, the roadside is not the place to debate that.”
