Looks like the back of a stop sign. If so that officer was driving without due regard as he never slowed enough to safely clear the intersection.

It looks like he is going quite fast. He could have easily lost control and taken out all the other cars.

I know you are new here, and young, but you will learn that, believe it or not, police officers, and (hopefully) all, if not most firefighters and EMTs actually take a training course called EVOC (Emergency Vehicle Operators Course). Of course depending on the audience, it may be tailored more towards one or the other in specific ways.

For example, I was not taught how to do a P.I.T. in my EVOC, but I can handle an engine or an aerial.

LEO's ARE trained in high speed vehicle operations, and high risk pursuits. I have all the confidence in his abilities driving as he was. Look how many people out there crash just driving on straightaways. Anyone can crash at any time, but, how many civilians have any advanced vehicle operator course?
