2:38Now PlayingYou saw the viral video. But do you know what happened after the cameras stopped rolling? This is “Viral Flashbacks,” where the NY Post rewinds the internet’s most unforgettable clips to uncover the overlooked details, surprising backstories and answers you didn’t get the first time around.
When Uber driver Jesse Bright began filming the police officers who pulled him over, they ordered him to turn off his camera. After he refused, one officer falsely claimed that a new law prohibited citizens from recording police—and threatened to take Bright to jail.
What the officers didn’t know was that Bright was also a licensed defense attorney who knew they were lying.
Host Steven Greenstreet revisits the tense roadside showdown, the viral video that exposed it, and what happened afterward.
