Obviously, one of the vehicles went through a red light! Up to the investigators to determine WHICH vesicle!! Also, was the sheriff vehicle responding to a call? If so did it have its emergency lights and siren activated? How fast was each vehicle traveling? When and how hard were brakes applied? Etc. Those and many other questions will need to be answered before deciding not only WHO is or was at fault, but if any charges will be filed on the at fault driver. Glad everyone was okay.
I agree, the last time that I talked to someone who was able to give me information on the incident, I was told that the deputy was hit by the pickup. The front end damage is obviously on the police unit and the truck sustained damage to the side, so... I am assuming that meant that the driver of the truck ran a red and was at fault but I could not confirm that, all I have is that it was under investigation....
@theadventuresoflonewolf Thank you for that information. I was Volunteer Firefighter for almost 10 years from December 1987 to November 1997 with my local rural Volunteer Fire department here in Eastern Pennsylvania. We had a couple of incidents that were at our only stoplight in our tiny town. One, a vehicle didn't want to wait for a 18 wheeler to make the left turn through the green to Continue on PA Route 611 south. So the car tried to make a right turn, through a red light, which is legal here in PA, to continue on PA Route 611 North and collide with the 18-wheeler. I don't remember if the car driver got ticketed or not. A couple of times, while responding with lights and siren to calls, we almost got hit by people failing to stop at a red light or even pull over for an emergency vehicle!! I tember one close call at the intersection some idiot tried passing another vehicle in the intersection while we were coming, with lights and siren, and blasting air-horn!! Yes, we had to brake a little hard to avoid a head-on collision!!
