If so, the cop was probably asking for it.

"Let's wait for all the facts to come in before we jump to a conclusion."

"Was he wearing a helmet?"

"Yesterday, on my drive home, someone stepped into the street while I had the right-of-way."

"So many pedestrians are looking at their phone instead of where they are going."

"You weren't there, you don't know what happened."

Or do we not play that game when it's a cop that's been run over?

We all know they'll throw the book at this driver in exactly the way they never do when a civilian gets hit by a car.

d-bag. This is the kind of comment you make about someone out there doing their job and getting seriously injured by a car? Is that what you'd say to their kids or other loved ones? Says more about you then him.

Was he lingering in the blindspot and got right-hooked?

Are people really that callous when a bicycle operator is struck? I wish him a speedy and full recovery.
