Cop Injured When Car Loses Control On Icy Road

Unfortunately, police are forced to put their safety in the hands of passing motorists on a regular basis. This time, the police officer in question found out what a worst case scenario looks like.

Per the uploader, “It happened on the left shoulder of northbound I-75 near Adams Road on Saturday. The officer was outside of his car assisting a driver that had slid off of the roadway when another driver lost control. The 18-year-old slammed into the officer’s car and then hit the disabled vehicle.

The officer, who was almost crushed between the two cars, was hit and thrown into the ditch. He was taken to St. Joseph Mercy Oakland Hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries. He has since been released from the hospital”

Perhaps this video will help bring us a little appreciation for the good that the police can do! This simple event turned into a crash that could have been tragic!
