Heard about the slide on the radio this morning. Dog's probably smarter then the driver, but one has to wonder why the officer wouldn't have his car back further in the road with his lights going to warn people. Doesn't look like it'll take too long to clear it up.

Look away for a moment ...

That's why we discipline ourselves not to be distracted by police cars and news crews by the side of the road.   Undecided

He didn't have it in his hand when he got out of the car.
