False. Resisting arrest can not be a stand alone charge. Really depends on the judge but this kind of shit gets thrown out all the time. Guy in this videos case probably got thrown out. Im not saying you cant be convicted of solely resisting arrest but any competent judge will throw that out.

I dont agree with the just comply bullshit. No.

There are literally people who have been arrested for resisting arrest. It's irrelevant. The point of doing it isn't to actually look for crimes. It's to harass you by throwing you in jail for 48 hours, getting your car towed, making you pay to get your own car back, having your shit stolen legally through civil forfeiture in the process, and then you lose your job because you were a no show for 2 days.

That's the purpose of this. The cop doesn't actually give a fuck if your license is suspended.

And you saying shit about competent judges is a fucking joke as if the judges aren't literally in league with the cops.
