Is it bad that I got a laugh out of this? I hope everyone's alright.
 
That was actually pretty funny :) Would have loved to seen it in person :D
 
Whoops! That's what they have insurance for, I guess.

Hope the cop's alright...seems like he was mighty stunned to not turn off his siren.

They were really quick with the tarps!
 
I bet that the city's insurance premium is going to go up a pretty penny.
 
That's surreal. It'll buff out... right?
 
Double post.

I'm not seeing the humor..

"The officer sustained minor injuries and was transported to a local hospital."

Let's see, officer stumbling into a movie set by accident, or DC PD's right hand not knowing what it's left hand is doing? Sorry if I find humor in that. I'd find it funny if it was a regular citizen too, so why not find it funny if it's a member of service?

Everyone has their own ideal humor levels..obviously mine is different than yours.

I don't think anyone is laughing at the fact that the officer was slightly/barely injured. I think they're laughing at the circumstances of the accident.

Accidents sometimes are amusing. Please understand that is NOT the same thing as saying the resulting injuries are funny.
 
It's like when someone trips and falls. You want to laugh, but you make sure that they're okay. Then you start cracking up and busting their chops. It didn't look like that much of an impact. That's what crumple zones are for.

Just be glad that he missed Optimus Prime. If he had come through a few seconds later...............
 
Typically they have the streets sealed off for major movie productions like this. So how did he get past road closures going lights and sirens and not get stopped on the perimeter? Aside from the officer's minor injuries, it's funny. Even funnier is how they were Johnny On The Spot with the tarps to cover the car up.

Notice that the officers car barely sustained any damage. Bumblebee really got nailed though. I have to wonder if the officer was wearing a seatbelt, because honestly, other than a little whiplash, it doesn't look like he should have sustained any injuries.

"The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating the facts of the crash and filming of this movie on closed DC city streets has been suspended until safety procedures can be reviewed."

I take this to mean, "Filming has been suspended until the competence of our officers can be reviewed".
 
He calmly got out and walked away from the camero. Since it was a choreographed scene on a closed road, I'm sure he had plenty of safety gear hooked up.
