That is such a great video. The cop likes to have a heart attack when the train horns start sounding . .haha
 


at least he knows what a tierod is...unlike the dorks making, well, dorky comments (over there..)
 
That was funny as hell. And the motorcycle got away, hahahaha.

I'm surprised the trains were notified so quickly.
 
I saw this on tv several years back...i want to laugh, but I have to shake my head..I've seen police officers do some silly things but this one is up near the top.

Yup...
We had a couple of cops chasing someone at night and both decided to kill their lights at the same time. Problem was they were heading towards each other on the gravel road and the chasee was on another... can you figure out the ending here? :p
 


That's from an old episode of "Cops". The officer was chasing the dirt bike on a railroad access road. What he didn't see, because of the dust raised by the bike, was the access road made a sharp turn to the right because of the crossing just ahead. The officer continued straight. He managed to make it across the diamond but then couldn't get off the tracks on the other side. None of the trains pictured were actually coming down the track he was on, so notifying the railroad didn't make any difference to the final outcome.

He looked fairly young, and you do dumb things when you're young and the adrenaline starts pumping. The best thing for him to do was to discontinue the pursuit when it went off-road, but he wanted to catch the guy, for whatever reason. As one can tell by the attitude of the sergeant when he showed up, his superiors were not going to be happy. I suspect this ended up with a few unpaid days off for this officer...and, yes, the apparently female officer was a bit scary looking. :)
 
Jim. Great points. Somewhere, I have a photo of a M1A1 Abrams nose down in a pond. I was TC'ing that tank when she took the plunge .. and CAN explain .. but the reactions from people was very similar to that for the cop.

I suppose .. if you are 'apparently female' .. and a bit scary looking .. a cop is prob a pretty good job!
