Dashcam video released by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol shows one of its officers hit by a car during a traffic stop.
Trooper Gregory can be seen speaking to the driver of a parked vehicle when another vehicle slams into them, sending the officer flying.
“Hopefully this is my scare of the career,” Gregory said. Nobody sustained serious injuries.
In a post on Facebook, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol warned against “distracted and impaired driving” and urged adherence to the “slow down, move over law”.
