You realize the cop laid his bike down to lessen the severity of the impact on the child and suffered a broken leg and shoulder as a result?

You realize that the cop was clearly driving at unsafe speeds in the first place, resulting in the accident which struck a four year old child?

Yes, I realize that. Had he let himself get knocked out, what then?

Is the parent going to kill him and risk being a cop killer?

He was already willing to risk his own life to try to save another’s life, and then shoots the father? Something’s not adding up here.

Cop should've flipped it to avoid the kid. The bike stops right there when the only thing you're using to stop it is the front brake.

” You realize the cop laid his bike down to

child and suffered a broken leg and
shoulder as a result?”

You realize the likelyhood of him having time to think like that is low? As one person earlier commented, laying it down is bike speak for panicking.

Bikers and cops are both routinely careless when driving. Combine the two...
