what a dumb fuck. it was obvious that the white car had stopped before the officer even began to try to avoid it. he could have easily just kept going straight.

So they get trained to fire a gun, but not in defensive driving?

He should've stayed in his lane, braked hard, released the brake, then swerved.

And this kids, is why you look both ways and listen for them pretty wail sirens and pulsing lights at intersections. And to those who said the car already stopped, it was moving when he made the turn, and if he jerked back into his lane, at that speed, it would have been dangerous, I feel he made the right decision, in the sense that, he had time to prepare for the impact, though, it is the driver of the white car's fault anyways for failure to yield to an emergency vehicle, just my opinion.

Police Sargent later told him, "its not... to protect and swerve, its... to PROTECT AND SERVE!!!

you guys act like he knew it was coming it had no idea whether or not the car was gonna stop or not and highly doubt that everybody here could have avoided it so shut the fuck up and get real!

this officer most likely did have driving training for this kind of situation. but think if u were in his spot , a cars pulling out dosent look like its bout to stop so u swerve to go around then the car stops while the cops turning, the cop already locked his breaks going at a high speed..once that driver stopped the cop was fucked.

Everyone in this video fucked up, so stop trying to tell me otherwise.

The Criminal fucked up for attempting to evade.

The Cop fucked up for trying to turn before braking.

The Charger fucked up for pulling out halfway, just to wait for the crash.

Now like this so I can have both top rated comments.

@Armed2Truck when I'm going fast, I don't even think about turning. I think about braking so that I can better control my turn when I need to.
