A car hit a highway patrol officer while he was addressing a traffic violation with another driver. Luckily, the vehicle hit the trooper's car before hitting him, thus reducing the impact on the trooper.

According to reports, the trooper did not suffer any serious injuries and should be able to return to work soon. Still, how scary was this?

This should be a reminder to all of us that when you see a police officer on the shoulder of the road, switch lanes to avoid such an accident.

In recent weeks the Louisiana State Police has been enforcing the law that requires drivers to yield the right way to officers when parked on the shoulder of the road.
