Colorado Motorcycle Officer Shows How To Dismount Quickly
People don’t seem to understand how much training good police officers receive, like this Thornton motorcycle cop who shows off an impressive dismount in a panic situation.

Unsurprisingly, the driver didn’t pull over for the trooper because he had a felony warrant for his arrest. Dodge Challenger playing animal sounds is terrorizing people in New York City.
