Oops!

 A trooper tried to execute one of them fancy u-turn maneuvers on Highway 80 west over in the Lauderdale County area and well, it did not go so well for all concerned. 

The Scotty Ray Report posted these photos on its Facebook page.  If you want to keep up with what's happening in the Meridian area, check out the Scotty Ray Report.   

Fortunately, no one was injured.

I don’t understand why 2 MHP cars were involved. Is there anyway other than Facebook to see the video? Some of us don’t use Facebook.

the boys down at the body shop can buff that out

Had the Bandit just come through there? I really wish you could post that clip from the movie now!

Luckily, the state of Mississippi can afford this $100,000.00 wreck. How do two highway patrol cars just happen to run into each other? The answer is “they don’t”!

Too busy watching that spicy video from their co-workers!

I am a consistent supporter of the Blue Line. But for the life of me, I cannot understand why the Blues have a compulsive desire to drive a bazillion miles an hour whether chasing a crook or driving to lunch.

Just the boys playing with our tax dollars. No repercussions coming...

Luckily for them, they don’t have to pay the damages, we do. If I was an asshole, I probably wouldn’t care much about costing other people money either.

Boys will be boys. They were hot-dogging it and failed, but the generous taxpayers (a minority of residents) of last-place Mississippi will buy them some new take-home cars. But if we try this crap we would be arrested for reckless driving, not to be confused with "wreck-less" driving.

@11:05 - they have no incentive to follow the law or take care of their taxpayer funded toys.

It’s too bad more people don’t back accountability for the blue

@10:57 Hilarious and likely true. The jokes just write themselves.

Were their sunglasses still perched on top of their shining bald pates? For some cops, that's all their head is good for.

We deserve an explanation, as taxpayers.
So, of course we won't get one.

to the consistant supporter of the blue line @11;05.................you don't know much about cops, do you?

Must’ve gotten a call saying the rest of the boys were at the Western Sizzlin.

They were Trooperettes no doubt…

Glad nobody was injured but these guys are all clowns.

Leadfooted bullies.

Why is it that at EVERY SINGLE WRECK the cops are doing NOTHING? The only person who ever works at those things are the wrecker operator and sometimes the firemen.

There must have been a Lottery emergency this morning. One of those state provided gaming commission cars blew by me on I-55 south in Madison county (tag G 45767). They don’t pay for the car or the insurance so they drive as they please.

Who were the patrolmen? Most of them drive like they bought their license at Dollar General. They are not respectful of the taxpayers’ property. I really think they should be published because it’s usually repetitive dumbassery from the same individuals. Show their photos.

They were racing to Krispy-Kreme.

They need to retake their "J-turn" training, or maybe it was self-taught?

Back when Volvo was still Swedish, and we still drove Volvos, we didn't worry about driving costs. But now, driving Japanese and "British" marques, I feel like the Captainette of the Titanic. Even in my thrifty Lexus, everything costs a bunch. Every excessive acceleration, and every unnecessary braking, affects that mileage calculation being reported on my dashboard. And EVERY... BUMP... COSTS... MONEY.

I was back in Madison, and got pulled-over for "driving slowly and swerving". The cop was nice about it, and mainly was using this as a pretext for checking to see that it wasn't some drug dealer in the executive sedan (in Mississippi, apparently, anything other than a pickup or an SUV screams "minority criminal"). I thought I was driving 2 miles OVER the limit, but that was before I discovered that LS are calibrated to round-up the MPH. So, I was driving-the-limit, which was unusual, apparently.

I recounted the number of manholes I'd avoided, moving to avoid the ruts at the railroad tracks... "The shocks on this thing are sixteen hundred APIECE. I avoid bumps..."

"Well... I'm gonna let you go, this time."

Obviously, the poor cop (who was sweet and unfailingly polite, since it was Madison), had never HEARD of someone's driving to avoid bumps. Had I been in my 'Proper Motorcar', and told him what shocks and struts and run-flat "tyres" cost for THEM, he'd have thought I was lying.

But yes: to confirm what other posters have said, LEOs don't seem to understand that there are price tags attached to to what we do in our cars.

There's a legendary story passed down to each MHP cadet class about a highway patrolman who while speeding to a call ran off the highway, flipped three times, and still walked away shaky but uninjured. People who stopped to help were slack jawed as he climbed out his upside down cruiser.

"What's the matter?" he asked them. "Haven't you ever seen a highway patrolman park his car?"

If that were TaxpaYERS INVOLVED THERE'D BE FAULT. Let's read about The Who, What & Why. We the Taxpayers bought their Training, bought their Ride & it didn't work. Let's have some Responsibility in this situation. Explain the how, why, & Tighten up on Training & be Financially Responsible for your actions. Hell, Years ago Mississippians respected Troopers- a lot.

There's a reason those turns are illegal.

I smell a promotion. Maybe two.

Steal $10,000 and Shad will be knocking on your door.

Wreck a $100,000 patrol car and your MHP sergeant will tell you to drive more carefully next time.

We’re all involved drug tested, of course not.

MHP needs to send their guys to Arkansas. Those boys have perfected the PIT maneuver.

Get on YouTube & search “Trooper Jacob Byrd.”

Obviously the car is at fault, it probably resisted arrest or smelled like weed. The patrolman was scared for his life and had to do something. Do we know what charges were filed against the car?

Anonymous said...

Hey but they are good boys. Let’s raise the starting salary for troopers to $60K.

That should buff out.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets.
