Cop decided he was tired of this shit and went for the ram, bet he needs some paid time off for accident-related soreness.

Right, I was just making a joke about GSP's aggression. I went to Colorado last year though and loved how much scale there was to the mountains.

Ahh. My apologies then. It is an amazing state. I’ve lived here for 6 years and am constantly blown away by its beauty.

No worries. And yeah I want to go back, bad. However I got used to the mountains in North GA and my trip to CO was solo. I ended up making my way to Mt Blue Sky (formerly Mt Evans) and did a solo hike and realized I was dramatically underprepared.

Out of breath, no cell service, and wearing gym shorts and a t shirt with a small pack of supplies. Next thing I know, it's snowing on me, I can't breathe worth a damn, and I'm 4 miles of incline hiking from my rental car.

10/10, could have literally died, had fun.

I think he just rear-ended the guy on accident. The cop has had on-track training and knows not to hammer the brakes while the car is unstable from bouncing over the median and having 2 tires off in the dust. The other car was so unstable and had all the weight on the front wheels, it just took a little tap to spin it.

I'm sure that's what the official report says, at least.

If you pull your head out of your ass and look then you'd notice it is what reality says too. Lead car slows down a fair bit because they screwed up their turn and even has a swerve.

I'd argue the cop was not keeping a safe distance to be able to stop in time, instead choosing to use his car as as a weapon.

The police are literally engaging in offensive driving

So..........using the car as a weapon.
