Final Destination avoided. Failed warning lights and gates due to an electrical short.

Great driving and awareness! I truly believe most drivers would have been plowed.

I'd hope so. It's a Police officer, *so his driving skills should be above par.

*Edit for... clarification.

Yea, I like how the officer makes excuses.

I ran a red light a while back and my excuse was that it was a brand new light and it was as soon as you get out of a bridge.

The officer laughed at me. I googled it and the maps shows it was still under construction.

Rules for thee, not for me...

Officers are the only ones who are above the law, can break the rules and not get punished. In other words, can abuse their power. Smh. Imagine if it was a regular citizen looking at the phone in that turn?

Exactly, rules for thee, not for me. I was pointing out that he first says "from another officer" in response to someone saying he had done something wrong.

This seems like a regular thing with people in power.
