Bike cop hit by car.
There's no gore, but there is a flying body..
http://www.biertijd.com/mediaplayer/?itemid=15627 I don't know what my take is on it. I think he may have made a mistake stopping in the middle of oncoming traffic with a bike, considering the car that hit him probably never saw him until it was too late.. |

Seriously boneheaded move.
He's lucky that truck didn't take him out. JC

Fucking dumbass. Nobody behind the semi can see him. There has to be a better way to stop traffic or get them to change lanes.

In that position, all it takes is one idiot texting to ruin his day.

All it took was one idiot in a lime yellow car texting to ruin his day. Thank the lord for the UK's massive system of security cams to give us this gem as to why you should never park a car in the street

My WTF is what he was moving traffic for. Was it for the ambulance (which is lucky(?) for him)? Why even have lights on ambulances if they need an escort?
Dumb move on the cop and I'm sure the yellow car person was an idiot too.

I'm surprised that the car or cars directly behind the semi didn't get him. The guy in the yellow car actually doesn't have any excuse, he could not have been watching the road. He never even hit his brakes until he made contact imo. Definitely a stupid move by the cop. If people couldn't see all of those bikes and the ambulance coming... There must have been someone pretty fucking important in that ambulance!!!

Tigger, I am with you. I thought for sure it would be one of the cars directly behind the semi not being able to see him soon enough.
