I ALWAYS check my mirror before I open the door into traffic. Its a good habit to have. Trucker may not have been able or had time to move over.

If you look the truck driver was in his lane and there was a truck in left lane he had no where to go. dumb ass cop probably had his door open and the driver could not see it.

@Bbfishman Take a chill,mistakes happen!! Cop 's are human! There is a law that mandates everybody must pull over a lane for emergency vehicles!! I am a truck driver and I allways obey this law, and I allways do it for non-emergency vehicles also!!!

How unfortunate, I was hoping the cop car was going to be plowed directly from behind. Fuck the police!

@securest trucker wasnet ridein the line. cop should have looked in his mirror for the trucks lights.

[Bbfishman]

maybe the fucking cop shouldnt think that he owns the road and he should check that its clear to open his door???? how is that the truck's fault unless they have the law about moving over a lane for a stopped emergency vehicle. Even then, the cop is pulling someone over for breaking the law and should ALWAYS assume somebody else will break the law about moving over a lane and refuse to do that as well. Sometimes you gotta actually think about things before you do them, nd then not blame others

it looks like the truck was already passing as you can see the truck before the glass smashing. Looks like the dumbass cop had a death wish

The trucker may not have been able to move over but he can use his brakes to slow down and let the other vehicle pass and then move to the left lane, the trucker should go back to safety class for defensive driving plus to jail and pay for damages. I drove truck for 25 years professionaly, trucker is clearly at fault here.

it didn't even fucking hit it.....

It's best when you see lights to move over.

Terrible dashcam. My iPhone 3GS does better. ;)

Glad trooper is ok.

Trucker's tires were on the line. Way too close.
