Glad there was no serious injuries. What a adrenaline rush. Did anyone else notice that when the officer swerved to the left the SUV turn to the right, Looked like he wanted to hit him.

Man, didn't even see it coming!! Thanks to the Big Guy upstairs!! Wow, only way he and his partner didn't get hurt.


At first I was wondering what was up with that pick-up swerving like it did.

I wouldn't say that he was trying to hit him. Driving classes tell you if you have a car coming straight toward you you should try to go to your right, cause 9 out of 10 that driver will go to their right. Me I would say he was trying to avoid hitting him. I am by far not taking the suv side I'm just stating what is said. Now with that said the officer probably didn't have anywhere really to move. Just glad both the K9 and Officer were ok.

I'm thinking he may have went left, because going right would have taken him into the back of the truck that he had been following.


Glad he and the K9 are alright.

That type of crash happens quite often here in San Antonio. There was a LODD a few months back, she didnt have a chance the wrong way driver also died which is rare for dunk drivers. She was responding code to a domestic with a gun involved. Its just so freaking crazy here, just about once a week an officer is injuered because of the drunkies.
