Sometimes a viral video can lead to justice. This week, the NYPD said it will investigate the plainclothes police officer who went on a racially charged rant against an Uber driver. A passenger in the car, Sanjay Seth, recorded the video. He wrote on his YouTube page: "In an unmarked car, the policeman was allegedly attempting to park without using his blinker at a green light. (His reverse lights weren't on. Likely double parked without hazards on.) The Uber driver pulled around and gestured that he should use his blinker, casually and non-offensively, and kept driving us." But quickly, the police officer pulled up behind them and started the abuse. The officer screamed: "How long have you been in the country?" Watch and cringe.
