“the officer tried to drive ahead of the truck to warn pedestrians, but when it seemed like Mecham would hit him, the officer drove out of the way”
They gave him a God-damned escort.
EDIT: maybe it was a motorcycle cop, actually. That would make more sense.
It sure seems like vehicular violence is on the rise. So many pedestrians killed this year already. No idea why drivers are so angry lately.
I'm closeish to Portland and I feel like I've never notuced so many hit and runs and road rage incidents, ESPECIALLY where guns are brandished before I moved here. Shit is insane in this state
