Officers described the driving as reckless and potentially deadly, especially on a busy metropolitan highway.
The footage shows officers questioning the rapper, who appeared surprised by the situation. Despite cooperating with police, Carti was arrested and charged with reckless driving, speeding, and traffic violations. His vehicle was impounded at the scene.
