"…'bout got hit by a tractor trailer…" FYI. Not "I got hit by a tractor trailer". Southern fella here. 8/16/2013 7:52:14 AM

he must be the typical crooked cop.
If it were one of the good cops, he wouldn't have been so lucky. 8/16/2013 9:16:32 AM

Glad the guy is ok.
A SHP that gave me a ticket before definitely got hit and killed responding to an accident call a few years ago. I recognized his name on WRAL.  8/16/2013 11:41:27 AM

This is why I wish they would deploy cops in pairs more often. Many a time Ive moved over for them (or now for other "safety light" vehicles) and have people honking or worse as im now in the fast lane doing the speed limit. Never ever have I seen someone pulled over for this law. 8/16/2013 12:29:45 PM

Why don't they just approach from the passenger side? 8/16/2013 12:37:51 PM

^^ don't forget that you are only required to move over if you are able to and it is safe to do so 8/16/2013 1:39:23 PM

The cops need to stop pulling people over beside the interstate unless they have committed a felony or something, there are too many people speeding by to have cars stopped for no good reason beside the road. 8/16/2013 10:50:16 PM

^most idiots just freeze up and pullover in the middle of the street.
This is why LO pulls up with most of the car closer to the road so the car get hit and not the officer. But most of them now days are trained to go to passenger side 8/16/2013 11:10:52 PM

Some of them do. Guess its the officers prerogative. Police office in RR that got shot when he pulled a stolen car came up on the passenger side and got shot by the driver. Might have otherwise fallen out in traffic and gotten hit. 8/17/2013 11:54:28 AM

Actually, he was not close to getting hit, as the closest point of the skidding rig was at a greater distance from him than the rig that passed cleanly immediately beforehand. Check out the skid marks.
Here are some real close calls:

He wasn't all that close to getting hit, but why did the truck slam on brakes? Just because he thought he was too close to the officer? 8/17/2013 3:26:19 PM

maybe they should quit pulling people over on crowded ass highways. All it does is cause more trooble. Puts them in danger and causes dangerous traffic situations and back ups. 8/18/2013 11:48:14 PM

^^^^^^ I watched the middle one like 8 times, and laughed my ass off at it
I guess this makes me a bad person...but something about the way he says "WAOW! Fuck!" and the radio flies out of his hand, just tickles the pants off me] 8/18/2013 11:55:03 PM
