Sarah Terrell said she is angry at the way a motor transportation officer treated her husband Tuesday. Terrell said the officer pulled them over for passing him on the freeway. Justin Terrell, Sarah Terrell's husband, said his wife had been following the officer for more than 20 miles while she was driving in the left lane. "I had decided enough was enough because there were cars piling up behind me," Sarah Terrell said. Sarah Terrell said when they passed him, the officer pulled her over and wrote her a citation for following too closely and passing in the right lane. Sarah Terrell said she was wrongfully pulled over and cited, and it's all caught on video. When her husband was asking the officer for clarifications, the officer was caught on camera saying, "You're just trying to be a smartass is what you're doing." "There was no mistake that he meant to call my husband a smartass to his face. It was just very disrespectful," Sarah Terrell said. Terrell said the officer even wrote the wrong statute on her ticket, and a DPS spokesperson said the officer did write the wrong number. Read more
