Officer badly injured in head-on collision

Occasional; try about every six week's; and for those's screwup's it cost the taxpayer's million's; and those million's could be better spent on the community; man it just never stop's with you guy's; a person can see why Lou Ky will never amount to much. God Help us All.

I don't disagree that statistically, these things happen. But LMPD seems to have far more of them than the other large agencies in the state, per officer, why? Virtually every one of LMPD's "accidents" are clearly avoidable.

And why "probably?" She was clearly at fault, she ran the stop sign. I know that intersection well, I can see how she may not have seen an oncoming vehicle, but it is still her fault, just like when you rear-end someone, it is your fault, no matter what the other person did, it's your fault. What bugs most of us, however, is that whenever an LMPD officer is involved in a wreck like this, other officers immediately jump up and start making excuses, instead of say, yeah, it happens, sorry about that, glad it wasn't worse. Instead, it's "we're under stress" - well hell, boys and girls, I'm under stress every day, but I don't blame my mistakes on it, it just goes with accepting a high stress job where I have people lives in my hands 24/7.

I agree with another poster, what about the innocent civilian who was involved? She's got a wrecked car, has to wait forever for the City to cut a check, probably missed days of work, may have to catch the bus in the cold and dark until she can get her car back. (The City won't pay for a rental car even when a city driver causes the wreck.)
