unless you're prepared to unjustly spend a very long time in prison to help the guy that put you there, i think the best thing you can really do is everything you can to help without getting yourself jammed up. do what you can and take off with the evidence.
here is a parellel situation. i can't see any way that it is fundamentally different than the one just described. you are a jew on your way to a concentration camp when the vehicle you are being escorted in veers off the road and into an embankment. the driver, a german officer, is trapped, but you can get him out. do you help him or take off?

"You broke the law and he's doing his job."
"As I said if you end up in jail for 3 consecutive life sentences that's a reflection of a shitty society, not the cop's fault at all. He's just doing his job. "
"His job is to arrest people that break laws, unjust or not."
What a bunch of horseshit. Police officers aren't state automotans, they're people who by their own free will choose their profession. They must be held accountable to distinguish between what is just and what is unjust, despite what is coded in THE LAW. Any officer who chooses to impede the flow of your life or even destroy it by choosing to enforce an unjust law becomes the deliveryman of tyranny, your personal rival! I can't believe all the people on this forum conceding that what the law says goes, policeman are just doing their job. Right, and the SS were just following orders.
The Reservoir Dogs bit was just a joke. Of course cops are people too but the point is that when they put on their uniform, the rules change. They take on a different sort of personal accountability. If a non-uniformed citizen took it upon himself to rain shit down on your life, he would be accountable for his tyranny. A cop, and the state that creates him, do just that and with a large degree of immunity by virtue of force. I'm not aiming to answer the question of the roadside drug bust/hit and run. I'm only asserting that when a cop chooses to enforce an unjust law, he has gone beyond the realm of "just doing his job". What defines an unjust law? One that imposes tyranny and suffering upon an individual when he has done nothing to prevent another from enjoying their liberty. If you can make a case that the guy with a big bag of drugs is doing that, then go ahead, but drugs don't jump into people's pipes or inject themselves into people's veins.

I know people personally that have been let off of things that would have fucked them over. Nothing huge, a DUI and possesion, for example. Cops DO let people off sometimes. When it comes down to it though, you are in possession of something that your government has decided to make illegal. Just or unjust, you know that it is illegal, and taking a risk.

see now the whole concept of being justified ideologically because he is committing an injustice?
Well that all starts to fall apart in contrast to the statement of intent to kill him on a whim.
