Cops And Bikes

This reminds me something (avoid my rant below, I warned you)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Just before Christmas I went to see some loved one's at Wilford Crematorium, after myself and my young family went walking towards Asda. Two cars must have crashed into each other, nothing serious but enough to warrant two big police cars (land rover type) and about 6 officers, the majority of which weren't doing anything at all.

Well, as you can imagine there was a big queue and one officer was allowing traffic from one direction, then other.

A motorbike speeding, stopped on the border of each road's side and then started weaving in/out. Until what I suspect was him fearing being seen, by the end he had barged his way right to the front. Narrowly avoiding crashing into a car and blocking the left turn from oncoming traffic. It's by this point I commented what I thought of the biker, followed by a brief rant to poor @cheeky~k8. To my surprise the officer allowed traffic to come from the other direction, even more to my surprise was the response of the biker. He must of grown impatient because he just starting riding in the direction of the incoming traffic - The cop signalling sort of became scared and started waving (like he had some sort of magic power).

The biker narrowly missed this other officer and his car (parked dead opposite the collision). It's by this point I thought that one of the 4 standing around officers would somehow respond. Oh no, no... It appeared they did nothing!

The title of the video is "Dumb Pathetic British Police Step Out on Bikers Causing Accident" I would dispute that the policeman caused the accident. The second bike was going too fast or wasn't paying attention enough to be able to stop in time. You should always drive at a speed so that you can stop if something like this happens. Perhaps the caption should read "Dumb Pathetic Biker rides too fast and causes an accident"

It's both fault.

The police officer should know bikes take longer to slow down, those conditions wasn't going to help and holding your hand out - He could have injured himself. The bikers was reckless - with regards to my rant I was trying to explain how both can be wrong.

Just like in the video.

Oh and I would just like to point out it is "an Accident" not "A Accident"

 

Honestly, standards.....
