looked like the police car had the green. it turned yellow at the last second (the lights are changing in the upward direction). so apparently the other driver drove through a red light and stopped in the middle of the intersection. the police car veered right to avoid what he believed was a car moving forward, but the car stopped instead of continuing and thats why the police car hits it in the middle of the side. the driver saw the police car at the last second and probably also his red light and thats why he stopped. the accident was the fault of the other driver, not the police officer, in my opinion. had the driver kept moving he wouldnt have been in such a bad accident.
