Louisiana State Police released a trooper's body camera footage and a snippet of video from his dashboard camera showing him stopping Col Lamar Davis
Sources say Davis, the head of the Louisiana State Police, was traveling more than 90mph on the bridge, which has a speed limit of 60mph
The video shows the trooper pulling Davis over on the shoulder of the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge and walking over to the car
As soon as he notices the driver is Davis, who steps out of the van, the officer says 'Well I'll be' and shuts off his camera
Dashboard camera footage showed he then approached Davis and spoke with him before shaking his hand and letting him get back into his unmarked car
Davis has said he now takes 'full responsibility' for speeding along the bridge
