That is not an emergency vehicle it's a cop car. And second those cops did not have an emergency to go to they just wanted to get to where they were going without having to face traffic. The Police are at fault. And you're going to slam your brakes on the freeway?
But you know we live in a society where the cops are the top anything we say there's nothing cuz we're pieces of shit just citizens
Oh, I smell a lawsuit
Escorts are not an emergency no matter whats it's for? It's a courtesy. I like a funeral persession… It would be nice to stop but not legally obligated…
Typical. Cops 👮 with no accountability!! And local government Ass kissers supporting… We are in a Nazi state people… What are we going to do???
Oh so it's legal to cut across 3 lanes of traffic for an exit at the last second? good to know…
Badges grant extra rights! Police follow a double standard.
fucking cops!!
That's the cops fault because they drove to the exit at the last second.
nobody is wondering. it's clear as to who is at fault. bcso. fuck swine.
Above the law anyone? Justice isn't blind anymore.
That Nissan rear ending the truck had enough time to stop. He didnt pay attention, didnt have enough safety distance and braked to late!
From 3 lanes of traffic sounds like they weren't paying attention but the badge gives the freedom what a joke then the deputy just drove off what happened to protect and serve he didn't even check to make sure everyone was ok after they caused it all
A charity event allows them to run code….abuse of power and the cops don't know directions.
True on both sides but the jack ass following to close is the idiot
It's obvious at what point the person in the Nissan tried braking, you can see the tires burn. The Volvo noticed that the truck was trying to cut LAST MINUTE which is why they abruptly stopped, causing the Nissan to also have to stop abruptly. Although I do think the Nissan could have swerved out of the way, they also couldn't seeing that the driver of the Nissan knew that the truck was planning on passing through that path in the first place. There is only so much people can yeild and keep a distance. When people try to slow down too quickly to keep such a distance in the first place the drivers know that it can cause a wave effect behind them if other people are also having to quickly slow down on a freeway. Similar to the way that ambulances yield at a traffic light even if they have their emergency lights on. They know that there's only so much someone can stop on time by the time they see them. Ambulances don't just speed through traffic lights and assume that "you will yeild because you are suppose to keep a safe distance."
Good luck explaining why you skid so far to rear end another vehicle. The first vehicle stopped just fine, second one was obviously not paying attention.
trying to justify this is a freaking joke
these cops are at fault and caused the accident and it is sad that our County Commissioner defends them even though he knows they're wrong
come on is clear they fucked up
Does this commissioner thin that an escort to a party realy need emergency lights. A party is not an emergency.
The commissioner is an Freemason idiot. The deputy in the truck should have followed BEHIND the lead vehicle and not 3 lanes to the left and then try to "catch" an exit. Gimme a break, Commish.
