So are all police taught to wrestle cars to a stop in the academy?

No. It's a dumb thing to do.


But for the myth that police academy raises IQ, is false.


His department has procedures on what to do. Pulling a T.J. Hooker isn't in them.

There's not enough information in the media report to make a valid assessment of the incident, but it sounds as if the PGA officials had told the participants to "drive around the cops in the median," they should have had personnel on location (and maybe they did? The media report doesn't say) to designate who was clear to disregard the police roadblock. Obviously, a traffic fatality investigation isn't conducted to convenience the local elites; the investigation should take precedence over a sporting event. The notion that ordinary citizens are subject to the regulations but the elites are not is a joke. A sporting event isn't an emergency, and they need to either shut the road down to everyone for the investigation, or not shut it down at all. Whoever decided to allow the elites through (PGA officials? Law enforcement? Mutual agreement?) apparently didn't consider how the plan was to be implemented. Someone should have been on scene to guide the elites through the process. Pi$$ poor organization.

You are a glorified roofer, a legend in your own mind only.
I could care less about some second rate golf tournament.

There was a blurb in the story that said the LEO working the accident scene were not the same as the ones that had been working traffic control at the event before. Scheffler's claim is that he was following previously given instructions, and didn't realize those instructions were superseded due to the fatality crash.

My interpretation is that the road was shut down for the crash investigation. But Scheffler thought it was just normal traffic, and proceeded through the roadblocks just like he (and all the other golfers) did in the days before.

Orange cones on a road at 5:30am is a recipe for trouble.
Street light illuminessence is usually poor to non existent.
Its early, early dawn when human beings can’t see hardly anything…even if its a full moon.

I have played Colonial several times, it's a fun course to play.

Attending a golf tourney is only a tick above being on the water during a fishing tourney, having a lot more eye candy at a golf tourney gives it the nod.

Drinks are a lot more expensive than pulling lukewarm beers out of your cooler though.

Why is the now-dead pedestrian getting a pass in all this? If it wasn’t for his/her incompetence with walking, none of this would have happened.
