HHAHAHHAA, what a shame

can't see what that car is, maybe it's evo? i can see how good handling car helps here. that car turned pretty smoothly, didn't even slide, but the cruiser just went straight into the building...

I've seen this on TV on one of those clip compilation shows. Glad to see it again, that's some great footage.

What was the cop doing exactly though? It's not as if he lost the back end, or the front tires didn't hold and slid straight. He just turned about 20 degrees instead of 90. And unless he had massive brake fade, it doesn't appear he tried to minimize damage when all was lost. You can't blame the crown vic on this one. If anything, I give the car props for holding it's own against a wall.

Officer Cletus reached for his donut at a pretty inopportune time.

I've seen this before, like a couple days after it happened. The sedan was like a Malibu or something like not, not an EVO or something with great handeling.

I'm with you on this one... I wish we could see it in real time to know how fast they were going... According to the guy talking, they slowed the video down.
