If the atv driver was going too fast to stop in time not to hit the cruiser, just think how bad he could've hurt the kid walking and the other pedestrians.

Max speed is 25mph, and is actually lower in some areas. He had to be doing at least 45 by the looks of it.

Officer definitely knew he was going too fast.

A single solid yellow line marks the center of a road with two-way traffic, separating lanes moving in opposite directions. A solid yellow centerline means passing is not allowed, which helps prevent head-on collisions by keeping traffic safely apart.
You will often see this type of solid yellow line on highways.

What are the bicyclist fags doing riding down the middle of the road? Not even on the shoulder that doesn't exist. Roads were meant for motor vehicles. One bicyclist appears to have fallen and got a boo boo. Then they stayed in the road like morons. Get out of the road or risk being struck.

The story is bullshit, whether official or not.

The cop crossed the centerline that was meant not to be crossed, and he caused what the line was intended to prevent. His tail end was mainly out of the lane he just left, to allow traffic behind him to pass. I bet he didn't even see the ATV.

The ATV rider would have seen the people on the road. And he could have gotten around them. The bicyclists risk being hit, regardless of what type of traffic is behind them, whether ATV or car/truck, especially if a bend were up ahead or if the driver were on their phone (what drivers aren't these days? Oh, ATV riders) and that would have been a tangled mess of many people and bicycles.

Maybe the laws where this happened didn't require a helmet, but it would have been a wise choice, especially on pavement.

Looks to me like a case 9 idiots in one short video.

I also see a white line across the left lane, ahead of the bicyclists, indicating a stop sign. Be the bicyclists didn't stop.

@OwMyBawls Also, in many states, ATVs are legal on the roadways.
