Caren Z. Turner, a Democratic lobbyist from Tenafly, has resigned as a commissioner from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, after an investigation was opened into what agency officials would only describe as "profoundly disturbing conduct." Turner's resignation allegedly involved her intervention in a recent traffic stop in connection with her daughter. Turner apparently flashed her Port Authority badge in an effort to intercede with police officers on the scene.

    Mothers like her are the reason it’s always a good idea to meet a girl’s parents before getting too serious.
  • @K9KANAP1
    I believe that she is the original Karen. Thee Karen.
  • @marchosch3876
    "I'm here as a concerned citizen and friend of the mayor " As soon as she said that, the cops knew this was gonna be one of those people. Respect.
  • @tribalconcrete
    These cops deserve a medal for the way they handled this situation.
  • @jme92685
    A bad case of, “do you know who I am” disease.
  • @DaveRod76
    This woman is the definition of a sense of entitlement and privilege in case anyone was wondering.
  • @samiylmaz156
    This is the exact kind of person who should not be put into a position of authority.
  • @user-wg4hz3bk4f
    Imagine how bad she treats people she ACTUALLY has authority over.
  • @wplno1
    "The PA’s inspector general opened an inquiry into Turner’s conduct, which led her to resign", what an amazing outcome for society.
  • @bball933
    The amount of narcissism is astounding. The cops are better than me because I woulda just walked away
  • @sadwalk
    Wow, she feels so important..... ridiculous
  • @zoznack
    Good cops doing their job, not backing down from intimidation from a corrupt, abusive public official.
  • @eh-i1841
    The disbelieving look on the other cops face.Brilliant.
  • @MusicalMemeology
    I’m so glad there’s video evidence to shed light on these power tripping entitled people.

    This is the type of lady that would take 45 items to a 20 items or less register at a Walmart.
  • I love how she threw out there that one of them was a PhD student at Yale and the other two were graduate students at MIT. If they were that damn smart why were they driving a car that was not registered. If the crazy ass woman wanted to be mad at anyone or worry about who screwed up her weekend for Easter, she should look at the driver.
  • @Al-po2oh
    I loved it when the officer said, your daughter is an adult. I do not have to explain anything to you.
  • @jonathangair8031
    I love going back to this moment. The moment when a policeman, yet again, refuses to be corrupted by an official. Then just does his job.
