Here's The Moment A Red Light Running Cop Wipes Out An Innocent Motorist
Cops run red lights all the time - it helps them catch bad people and save lives - but it’s on them to slow down and assess the situation before doing so. Unfortunately, this officer in Ocoee, Florida, made a massive error of judgement when he blew through a red light without slowing down, wiping out a Toyota Corrolla in the process.
Officer Chris Bonner was pursuing two armed robbery suspects when the incident occurred, and reports suggest he was travelling 90mph when he crashed. The driver of the Corolla was 26-year-old Yahaira Castro, who suffered serious injuries. Apparently, paramedics pulled her from the wreckage by her broken arms…
The officer has been fined $164 and received four points on his driving license for running the red light, while Castro has confirmed that she is suing the city of Ocoee.

well the cop didn’t yield properly even in a a pursuit and the lady didn’t see that coming even it is very clear to see a vehicle on either opposite side of the intersection and she did not also look both ways as well………….also…….what happen to those armed robbers….did they got arrested?
When youre a cop but GTA is life.
Fined $164? For real? I wonder who’d pay for the “repair”
This would not have happened if america banned guns in the first place
Those adds at the bottom that start automatically are really getting on my nerves.
164$ what a f….ing joke, he should be jailed for doing something so extremely stupid and never be allowed to drive a car again
In all seriousness I hope she gets a speedy recovery. But how could she not see the flashing lights?…they’re so bright!!
Most likely got a pat on the back and a paid vacation for this
I’m sorry, he could of killed someone and all he gets is a slap on the wrist and a fine of $164? If I did that I’d locked up and banned from driving. Let alone the fine that’d come with it…….
and just because he’s a cop he gets only 164 fine and 4 points, i’d say license gone, and you have to pay the damages ATLEAST, he probably endangered more people than the armed robbers
