we've got multiple angles stay with us
if you've seen this before because we've
got new data and records and can go a
little more in depth and exactly what
happened and take a deep dive into why
this happened i'm going to tell you
right now a lot of factors had to go
wrong to bring us to this point let's
take a look first thing for this driver
going through on the green light if you
watch it again you'll see they were
screened by not one but two cars on
their left so as they're coming up to
the intersection they absolutely cannot
see that oncoming squad car and they
have no indicators the the opticon has
not triggered yet the only indication
they might have is that the two cars to
the left are not going through on a
green light when i was in the police
academy a long time ago we were trained
that when it came to clearing
intersections you clear an intersection
lane by lane by lane it's not an all or
nothing thing you go one lane after
another after another now in the real
world
it's easy to fall into bad habits two
other things to call out real fast
number one is the impact is on the back
quarter panel of the vehicle that's like
the perfect spot to spin this vehicle
out or have it roll over and the second
thing again just by chance just thinking
about how unlucky they are is there's a
curb that the left rear wheel on the
squad struck which helped it yaw
and ultimately tip over so it's the
location of the impact from the car
combined with striking that little
outset of the curb that
ultimately contributed had to happen in
order for this vehicle to roll over
you're okay
[Music]
so there's a chance to listen to the
dispatch audio now we can kind of argue
back and forth who's at fault here
ultimately my guess i'm not 100 sure but
my guess is both the driver and the
police officer are
unlucky they got hit by happenstance the
real person at fault is the person that
blatantly ran the red light that started
this series of events i want to call out
the driver who put his hands up over his
head when he got out of the vehicle my
heart sank when i saw that
from these videos i don't think he's
criminally at fault i don't know i felt
sad when i saw his reaction like that
but you heard the officer the officer in
the squad car she says it's okay buddy
it's okay you're okay bud
you're okay bud
and a quick note the driver makes
reference that the opticon was not
flashing you'll see him here he looks
right where the opticon would be he
talks about it flashing it was not
flashing he's pointing out the opticon
was not flashing if you want to know
more about these we've got a whole video
up on it and i'm putting it up on the
top corner now the most important piece
is the condition of the officer so we've
pulled out the best audio regarding the
rescue and the dispatch audio and impact
in fact we even got the back seat
video of this squad as it turns upside
down that's at the very end take a
listen and put yourself in this
officer's shoes
no one deserves to have a job where
they're facing injury every day
yeah i can move my feet all right
hang in there we're going to get you out
of here
[Music]
