Reminds me of a local cop in my town. He was responding to a non-life threatening call and was doing at least 70 in a 25 residential area. He broadsided a car and spun it around and into the side of a house, seriously injuring the driver. I heard the crash in my apartment; it was 50 feet from me. He had had two previous wrecks and had just completed a driving course for police. But it gets better: he also sexually assaulted a woman in his squad car while on duty. He did several years in prison.

That cop car was moving so fast that it still kept moving forward after T-boning that Corolla. It's a miracle no one died.

"Sure, our officer was doing 107 mph, but our internal investigation has determined that--despite the obvious circumstances and reality--our officer did nothing wrong and you were actually at fault. Now you can't sue us!"

He kept getting passed around between coward cop shops AS opposed to being simply FIRED for being stupid, REPEATEDLY

In Miami-Dade county Florida, they had a cop that had 9 crashes still on the force. The news did a report on him, while they were following him, he was doing 80 in a 45. The first question they ask was, why does this cop still have a job?

My sister was hit by police in intersection. They gave her a ticket for inattentive driving but she says she couldn't possibly move out the way fast enough to avoid being hit.

Qualified immunity means to bad for the citizen…

I thought at 88mph you go back or forward in time?

Cop: Stops you for going 10 over. Also Cop: Goes 120 to catch up to stop you for going 10 over.

If that where anyone of us with all those driving citations, we wouldn’t have a driver’s license!! The double standard here is ridiculous.

I have to say, those lights in that truck's dash cam footage are really noticeable from quite a distance away. The car that the officer hit, was even closer and because they stuck their nose out, actually would have been able to see and hear that cop car coming. So I think it is VERY valid for both the officer and the civilian to be cited in this situation.

Those with auto tickets and other crimes on their records should never be hired as police officers who are supposed to uphold the law.

Driving at 107 miles per hour in response to a "disturbance" with "no weapons" mentioned. Sounds like the officer lacks some serious decision making skills when responding in such a manner.

And he wasn't wearing a seat belt, give the victim a ticket for cruising stop sign, while he gets away without seat belt ticket

When your donut shop tells you . There are only a dozen donuts left

The dedication of the officer can't be in doubt. You can see he's attempting to continue on his way to the call out, despite what must have been a terrible impact. I imagine cooling system failure was probably to blame for the fact he never got there.

I took an evasive maneuvering class in the Navy. It was 5 days and the best training that I have had to this day. Even though you have lights and sirens, you are responsible for safe operation. I only run them when absolutely necessary because of liability reasons. .

This is out of hand. An officer almost killed myself and my wife going to a shoplifting call one day last summer. He was going almost 90 mph in a 35. This needs to stop

For me, one of the scariest things about this video is at around 2:00 minutes when it was said that a Polk County Sheriff's report said that the police car was travelling at 77.5 miles per hour which is likely a lie of about 20 miles per hour. These are the people who are taken as true witness's against the general public.

Charge the cop for reckless driving for speeding?107mph I'd be in jail? Why not him????

Just because you get a badge doesn’t mean you leave your brain at home!

Because he’s a cop, he gets “administrative leave.” Anyone else would’ve been charged with at least one felony.

That’s crazy I drive that exact road everyday going back home. And this happened 2 years ago.

Speaking from experience, having worn the badge for almost 15 years, I can say that people aren't always paying attention to the left and right of them. And if what's coming at you is displaying their lights and siren to a car with music playing, no windows rolled down to let in the sounds around you, you develop Tunnel Vision and no amount of flashing lights or a siren is going to penetrate that Bubble you wrap around yourself when you're driving. Everyone should get into their car in the city and reach over and turn off their radios/music when they're within City Limits. Leave the turns off until you reach the outer edge of the city. You've already got kids screaming and arguing with each other, other drivers skirting the traffic laws to contend with and then you're going to roll up your window because you've got the AC on and then turn on your music to defeat another one of your five senses, your hearing. Bad mistake. Your little rolling coffin is not going to save your life when a dump truck, tractor trailer or train finds you not paying attention. Driving Safely only takes a few seconds of preparedness. Give that gray matter between your ears something to do and Think. And the officer, with his driving history should be driving a desk, not a patrol car. He's an Unsafe driver. And at 46 years of age at the time of this video's airing, you're not going to teach him anymore than he already knows. He thinks he's the most important driver on the road. He's Thick Headed. And you're not going to change that with Training, no matter what he says. He'll tell you what you want to hear and then in a few months when you forget about his dangerous actions, he'll finally kill someone and you could have stopped it from happening by telling him to lay his badge, ID and sidearm on your desk because he's finished. That's how you fix this guy. You can't fix stupid.

Cops drive like this all the time in my area

That cop was driving stupid, when you consider the type of call he was speeding to.

That officer should be in jail, he violated every traffic law there is,,,, End Qualified Immunity

Any police officer caught breaking a law should be given as many charges of what they did as they’ve given other people.

That driving record, and he gets to enforce traffic.

I live a few minutes from this location. I actively try to avoid making left hand turns across this road at intersections without a light because it's a very busy and chaotic road. I can't imagine doing even 60 or 70 on this road. 107 is completely insane. This road goes right through the middle of and old part of town and there are so many side streets coming from all directions, forks in the road, lanes merging, etc. On top of that the road is nothing but curves so you can't see very far ahead. He was coming from the most dense area of the town and already doing those speeds. It blows my mind. And to top it all off, this idiot is a "traffic enforcement" officer in a small town that is best known for giving out tickets to everyone that drives 5MPH over the limit on the nearby highway. He shouldn't even have a license himself much less a badge and patrol car.

This officer wouldn't have been allowed to drive for Uber - with that record! That being said; I put more blame on the other car: The flashing lights were plainly visible. The other car just rolled thru the stop sign. The analyst saying it was "a low profile car" apparently didn't watch the video. The lights were NOT only on the inside - they were all over the front of the outside!

Instead of an apology from the police department that person got a ticket, broken leg, arm and now has to get another vehicle. That’s how you build relationships with your community.

As a former LEO we were limited to 20 mph over speed limit responding to calls. Pursuits closely regulated as to danger to the public.

That was a fkng maniac. The only reason they cited the victim was to avoid a lawsuit. Total Psycho.

Probably the most egregious case I’ve ever seen was Christopher Manuel’s. He was off duty at the time, and was driving extremely recklessly in his corvette, slamming into a mother killing her 1 year old child and injuring all other occupants. He was driving at 94 miles an hour. The mother was charged with several things, Manuel was only charged with misdemeanor speeding. She had a shitty baby carseat that was improperly restrained according to the court (as if it made a difference being hit at fucking 94 MPH). Not having your baby in a proper carseat/properly buckled is bad, and is an offense that can be ticketed. It does not in any way shape or form absolve someone else from recklessly killing your child by slamming into your vehicle at that speed. In Louisiana, where this happened, if you do not have a child in a proper seat at all/improperly restrained the first offense is a $100 ticket. They justified the killing of a 1 year old by saying the mother ‘also played a role’ by making a $100 dollar mistake before getting in an accident she played no part in causing. I guess making a turn when you have a green and what looks like plenty of space should just be a death sentence for anyone foolish enough to try. It’s Sickening. Oh and the guy’s prosecutors took so long thinking about it they ‘missed’ the opportunity to even get him for the ‘misdemeanor speeding count’. He literally got off scot free with no repercussions, and though it is old now (2019) he wasn’t even fired or put on leave or anything. He just got desk duty while it was internally investigated. A 7, 9, and 15 year old were in the car, and up to 2019 at least, the 15 year old was wheelchair ridden. Manuel has sued and accuses the mother of causing the crash. Both had green lights, and it was impossible to judge Manuel as he was incoming, leaving no room for either driver to stop the accident from happening. If that doesn’t mean his speed caused the accident, meaning he chose to put himself in a position where he could not react properly to changes on the road, meaning he caused the accident, MEANING HE WAS AT FAULT. I don’t know what constitutes being at fault.

3:40 a friend who was in the Highway Patrol for many years never wears his seat belt either. It's definitely odd considering all the horrific accidents they work over a career. *edit* same friend also constantly texts while driving, and has had a few serious accidents too

Who else thinks that 84 in a 70 was a gift by the citing officer , instead of the Actual speed he caught him driving at?

"We investigated ourselves, and found that we did nothing wrong." Pigs, covering for brother pigs. 🐖🐖🐖 What a surprise.

Should the cop have been doing? Probably not. But the other driver legally ran a stop sign and failed to yield, to an emergency vehicles. The end. Why are you making the guilty party into a victim ?

No excuse for driving that fast for such a low priority call. After hearing about his background, he needs to be fired and charged with reckless driving/ assault.

This guy probably would drive 120mph for a jaywalking call.

If that driver in the toyota had stopped and not taken off before having a clear line of sight to pull out,this wouldn't have happened. The police officer was just doing his job.If you pay attention,slow down, and not just hurry all the time,you won't make a mistake like this.

At that speed everyone was so lucky that nobody was killed.

The stop sign violation....a joke to cover police arrogance.

Maybe drive a marked police car and people might know you're a police officer instead of trying to be sneaky in order to write more petty traffic tickets.

As a former cop, I can tell you that you never respond to any call at 107mph. If you do, you are likely to create an additional call focused on you and you never make it to the call you were responding to. You only respond to a call with judicious urgency that allows you to arrive without putting yourself and others at risk. As we were taught, lights, sirens and speed don't give you the right of way....it only requests it.

He "outran his siren"? Speed of sound is around 800 mph, or 1122 FPS. Sound travels 4.7 miles per second, depending on environmental conditions and obstructions.

2 of my best friends were almost killed by a Melbourne police officer who T-boned them at 88 mph with no sirens or red and blues. She wasn’t even responding to a call. They still ultimately blamed it on them and about 2 years later they’re still waiting on justice.

No matter how important the call is, in order to do any good the first thing is to get there..

107 on a blind turn And the balls to fine the victim...

Stop sign violation? The car clearly stopped before continuing to drive, and when driving, it was too late to be able to notice the speeding car.

He had 7hrs of training to drive at HIGHLY DANGEROUS speeds. Smh.....

That last quote from the police officer is on point. Can't help people if you're now the person who needs help. Now you have done more harm and no good.

And the woman got a ticket for rolling through the stop sign? What a joke.

Please drive responsibly, safely and intelligently

I bet you they breathalysed the driver of the car that got hit, trying to find something to make the police in the right.

It's always the civilian driver at fault when there's a car accident with a police car. Finally this proves that a police officer's driving can be reckless.

Driving 107 miles in high traffic is uncalled for.

"At 88mph you outrun your siren" Speed of sound is 767mph..... How is this guy a crash investigator??

You can not defend yourself against someone going that fast !

Yup. A NJ Trooper came over a hill, Vorhees NJ, no lights no siren, T- boned a co worker making a legal left. Guess who got blamed?

These police need to be held accountable. They are constantly putting the public at risk during chases.

Of course the cop’s charged the hurt citizens. Didn’t stop at a stop sign. She checked both ways and it was clear, but 107 mph is like a fast train coming! He need to be decertified and his drivers license taken. He’s a danger on the roads.

Thank God that TT was there with a dash cam. From the look of it the department was going to cover up as much as they can.

Permanent desk duty and decaf is what this cowboy needs.

Only the police officer should be charged in this accident not the other driver.

There are three crosses next to a road near here that mark the spot where a cop spun around to stop a speeder. He lost control and slid into the path of a pickup truck in which a man was taking his son to school. All three were killed. The speeder was going six MPH over the limit.

Do the police really have to go that fast in an area like that? NO

Well at least you didn't beat up an old lady with dementia and laughed about it

Lights and siren does not give you the right to drive wrecklessly when responding to a call.! Safety is first, period!

107 mph in a low profile cop car without a seat belt is gross negligence and he should be put in prison, just like an ordinary individual would be !

Ive got no use for double standards... speeding cops are more deadly than speeding bullets.

We've investigated ourselves and determined we did nothing wrong - Every police department in the country

If the lady stopped at the sign this wouldn't have happened . No one's mentioning that. In the posts . Who ever thought it was emergency enough to the call the initial call. Hope they both recover from there injuries.

I rode a Harley back in the old days and I rode like I was invisible. And I almost got hit by a cop just like him. He got about a mile past me and hit a pickup. The pickup driver lived, the cop not so much. They took him out of that car in pieces.

Driving 107 MPH on a state highway at 9 am is reckless, officer Jackson needs to be fired, he is a danger to the community. Lights and sirens on that police car are not enough of a warning at his speed.

Cited doing 84mph in a 70mph zone. I'll bet dollars to donuts he was actually driving faster than 84.

The problem with reconstructing is you cannot reconstruct the mindset of the drivers.

They investigated themselves and found that officer did nothing wrong and he got a raise and promoted.

Going over 100 low priority call no seat belt. This cop was sitting on his brains. Hard to think when you are doing that. Not the first time either. Make note of his name if you ever get caught for going 10 miles by him.

I my state, the Highway Patrol were using the "new" 5.0 Mustangs until they finally crashed so many they decided to replace them with Crown Vics. The last "5.0" was estimated to be traveling in excess of 140 MPH when it disintegrated into the back of a log truck. I can't remember where he was trying to go but I know where he went. For months afterwards, people would go to the scene to see the longest skid marks you've ever seen. That trooper new his fate way before it happened but couldn't stop. My state also used Javelins in the 70's. They were the high powered ones and it's on google. Self inflicted vehicle accidents kill more cops than anything else.

He asked if we're surprised a cop wasn't wearing his seat belt 😂🤣

No reason to drive that fast and risk the lives of so many other innocent people.

This is why you take your time look both ways and scan your surroundings.

officer should be charged like anyone else

Responding to a non emergency, not worth risking your life for

The greatest threat to public safety is law enforcement.

These are the same people that tell you speeding doesn’t get you there any faster.

I've never seen a cop drive with a seatbelt on. I asked a friend (cop) about it and he said it's standard practice not to use them as they need to exit vehicles quickly and they hamper that. They shouldn't give the "safety" speech when they stop citizens then and issue an expensive "no seatbelt ticket". Do as I say, not as I do!

This officer Jackson should be Fired N prosecuted for putting the public life at risked.

I nearly did a head-on with a police vehicle who had just turned on their lights to respond to a call and suddenly made a turn I wasn't expecting - we were inches apart. He came back around and yelled at me (I had my hands up all the time in the car) but he then sped off to his call. Whew!

What a comprehensive and LONG report! Thank you!

107 MPH going to stop 🛑 a kid from breaking a window. 107 MPH собирается 🛑 ребенку от разрушения окна

We need to allow police officers to sue for getting injured.

Emergency responders don't understand that they CAN outrun their sirens. The OFF time of the sirens can mean the other driver didn't see the police car due to the curve and didn't hear it because of how far the police car travels at 107 mph during the sirens off cycle. 157 feet per secon.

It's okay though that guy with the busted taillight was caught😳🤗

In my country I work as a volunteer rescue operator known as the State Emergency Service. Typically we deal with storm damage to homes... sometimes we might save a life or two from flood waters... and very occasionally we get called to a MVA because we have specialised equipment for extricating injured parties from wrecks. Safety First is drummed into us from day one. It is pointless to have us wasting valuable resources both as a party to an MVA or tying up other resources to assist us instead of the parties that needed help in the first place. If we break the rules and it goes bad for us... they simply refuse to have us in the organisation. We take that seriously and I've been involved in over 100 serious rescues in my time with the Service without incident and purely for the love of the teamwork that it takes to get the job done. It must be nice to be a cop and have so many protections AND a great salary. "Administrative leave" indeed 🙄

Aaron Bachman, 21, and his brother, Daniel,15, were killed and their sister, Kori, 19, was seriously injured in Illinois in 2006. Joseph Boomer, a Winnebago County Sheriff's Deputy broadsided their car at a speed in excess of 100 mph. Jessica Uhl,18, and her sister Kelli, 13, were killed in a fiery crash in Illinois in 2007. Matt Mitchell, an Illinois State Trooper, lost control of his police car and crossed the median on I-64 and hit the Uhl car head on. Mitchell was driving 126 mph and talking on his cell phone and sending e-mails on his dash-mounted computer when he lost control of his car. The Uhl car became engulfed in flames, killing both girls. Mitchell had crashed two police cars previous to this incident. "We Serve and Protect" It sounds mocking and discordant.

That cop was fired. The other driver had a broken arm and leg and is pursuing legal action against the city.

_"When you're driving with your siren on, about 88 miles per hour you're outrunning your siren. People can't hear it"_ That's strange -- I thought the speed of sound was just over 760 MPH.
