Glad you're OK Jim... I hope all parties came out OK on that one. Well I guess you will be getting another NEW cruiser!

Looks like the guy might have been aiming for the CALEA logo but missed. Too bad, I think CALEA has a regulation against striking police vehicles.

I requested that I be asssigned another ....BIG......HEAVY....expedition. My Captain told me yesterday they are buying me a 2010 Expedition to drive so that is a good thing. I also want a full cage and fire supression system.....

I feel worse today than yesterday but the Doctor said that is to be expected.

Amazing nobody was hurt worse. Glad you came out of that one OK. A good thing you weren't driving in something small like an SSP.

we call the CALEA decals our "tombstones". I found out today that the "at fault" driver tried to say HE had the green light. I will have a copy of my cruiser cam video tomorrow that clearly shows the light green for me. When the crash happened I had the presence of mind to reach up and turn the video on. When the record button is pushed our cameras back up 90 seconds then start saving data . My Captain told me today it is excellent footage. Another souvenire I can add to the pile from the last 22 years.

High speed=the presence of mind to hit the record button.

Default WOW!

I am glad there were no serious injuries. I can't imagine what an SSP would look like after! I am glad you were in that vehicle.

I guess Integrity is a hard thing to find these days. Thankfully you have the footage.
