According to Castillo, the police car was traveling very fast without its siren or lights activated. Castillo says she flashed her lights and honked her car horn to get the attention of the police officer. In one of three videos posted by Castillo to YouTube, she says, “He was hitting about 100 miles an hour because I was hitting 80 and I could not catch up to him.”
Eventually, the police officer pulled over.

Why did she follow him and pull him over? Castillo felt he was setting a bad example by speeding. In the second of the three videos posted by Castillo, she says, “I’m sure he’s a good guy, but nobody is above the law.”
And it all led to this showdown between Castillo and the unidentified officer:

The unidentified officer said, “I don’t know how fast I was going, but I can tell you this. I’m on the way to work right now. Um, I don’t believe I was speeding, but like I said, you’re entitled to your opinion.” After asking if Castillo had an emergency that needed his attention, he added, “Well, I apologize and I’ll be sure to slow down.”
