Bieber's ongoing battle with the paparazzi heated up again Friday, when he went live on Instagram to call out photographers he claimed were dangerously tailing him on the road.
He was seen shouting out of his car window at a police officer, accusing the paparazzi of driving recklessly.
Though the "Yummy" singer briefly lowered his phone, causing the video to cut out visually, his voice remained clear as he vented, saying, "This is getting crazy, man, no joke."
However, it looks like authorities took action as sirens blared in the background, prompting a relieved reaction from Bieber.
"There we go, there we go," he said. "Some justice for this sh-t. I hope they lock his b-tch a-s up too."
The Friday event marks another moment in Bieber's ongoing stand against invasive paparazzi. Just a day earlier, the pop star posted footage of paparazzi crowding around him and his wife, Hailey, as they tried to reach their SUV.
Earlier this month, before Coachella, he also called out a group of photographers who cornered him at a coffee shop in Palm Springs, accusing them of trying to profit off his personal moments.
The Singer Refuses To Leave L.A., Cites God-Given Purpose Amid Paparazzi Concerns

The latest incident comes as fans have been voicing serious concerns about Bieber's well-being following his recent run-ins with paparazzi, with many urging him to leave Los Angeles for his own safety and peace of mind.
However, the "Baby" hitmaker made it clear in an Instagram post that he's not going anywhere, asserting that he feels his presence is "most needed" in L.A. and is determined to stay.
In his post, Bieber shared an image of a lion, a symbol he used to represent God giving him strength and patience as he faces the constant harassment from photographers.
The singer acknowledged that he moved to L.A. fully aware the city was "f-cked," but emphasized he's here for a greater purpose.
He also questioned whether there should be changes to current laws, pointing out how dangerous paparazzi culture has been historically, even referencing the tragic death of Princess Diana in 1997.
In a follow-up post, he doubled down on his stance, saying his calling from God is exactly why leaving isn't an option for him, and challenging fans to understand that.
Inside Justin And Hailey Bieber's Marriage Amid Growing Public Scrutiny

Bieber's marriage to Hailey has been plagued by breakup rumors, which have only been fueled by the singer's online antics and latest Coachella outing.
Amid fans' concerns, a source close to the couple who spoke with People Magazine said that Hailey isn't looking to leave her husband.
"Hailey is not on the verge of wanting a divorce or leaving him. It's just completely untrue," the insider said. "If anything she's sad about how hard everyone is being on him now that he finally is coming back out of his shell."
However, another insider painted a different picture of the couple's current situation.
"She's been in tears about his behavior lately," they told the news outlet. "Things have gotten bad quickly. She's genuinely scared something bad is going to happen to Justin."
Nevertheless, Hailey is said to be "very loyal" to her husband. "She's not walking away, but she knows something has to change," the source noted.
Justin Bieber Cuts Ties With Drew House

Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that Bieber had a falling out with his longtime friend, Ryan Good.
Good, who was the creative director behind Justin's former fashion brand Drew House and also served as the best man at his wedding, has not been on speaking terms with him since leaving the "Peaches" singer's Churchome in Beverly Hills, the church where Justin still worships, with Judah Smith as the pastor.
According to TMZ, sources shared that Good felt Churchome was like a "cult," so he left, and the fact that Justin added Smith to his fashion brand's Board a few years ago, despite the fact that Good didn't get along with him, didn't help matters at all.
The insider described the move as "weird" because Smith is more of a pastor than a businessman. However, sources close to Smith say he has no problem with Good and wishes him well.

The singer has also been tagging @SKYLRK in his posts and has updated his bio to include the brand. On Thursday, April 3, he dropped a new carousel of images, giving fans another sneak peek.
One photo showed a pink hoodie sealed in a plastic bag stamped with the SKYLRK logo, alongside vibrant shots of funky sunglasses and a bright blue phone case.
