In Massachusetts, the State Police were investigated for numerous auto accidents over an 8-year period. They were found "responsible" for causing the crashes in zero, despite that in most of them, the police were the ones driving (way!) over the posted limits.
Of course, the State Police ran the investigations, so...
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Just goes to show, the more things change, the more cops drive like the shirk-laws that they are. Criminals in badges are the absolute worst.

This is why I am not a fan of high speed police chases. From the article: "Montesi, 29, said he was speeding to catch up with other deputies when he swerved his vehicle on Jan. 11 to avoid hitting Josiah's friend, who was walking his bike across the road, but he ended up hitting Josiah, who was walking behind him."
and
"Hillsborough Sheriff Chad Chronister placed the officer on a five-day suspension, without pay, for Sheriff's Office Standard Operating Procedure for speeding even though he wasn't involved in an emergency operation."
This wasn't even a high-speed chase, he was just trying to catch up to his buddies. If vehicular homicide doesn't fit (since apparently speed isn't the only factor), then negligent homicide should.

“he was just trying to catch up to his buddies.”
Sounds like he was on a 10-199.

Going directly to the ping list ping. I wonder how many people have defended the cop.
