It’s now doing 20 to life.
Typical. Blame the victim
I’m a little pissed at the police force around here, considering that the Hubby got a ticket on the way to the hospital where I was freaking in labor the other night………./off topic selfish rant
Is babyfrou here???
Babyfroo isn’t here yet, and will hopefully not be here for another three or four weeks. Apparently my children are impatient little buggers though. My dr is taking me off work because of past history and current preterm labor. So I’ll be on my back for the next few weeks, and not in a fun way!
*hugs for froo and froolet*
send hubbyfroo to get LOTS of dvds.
Two girls got killed by a cop near me when the cop was chasing a speeding car without his lights or siren and going through past a stop sign. He didn’t get anything but maybe slap in the face and bad memories (not good enough).
That’s sad, but how did the police officer intend to pull over another car without telling them he wanted them to pull over?
The expression is a slap on the wrist, but anyway, I’d imagine the policeman deserved slightly more, but not enough to mar his life- he was acting as a public servant and trying to do his job, after all, and it was accidental.
For some reason I’m thinking of that Booth cartoon of the woman with a huge caboose looking for her cat . . .
HOW,….W.T.F just how,
I’m just guessing, but the only way I can figure is that it happened somewhere else and the car was towed to this spot with the phone embedded in it (should’ve just gotten a cell, right?).
It does look like it is an impound lot (the car behind the guy has a smashed hood as well).
You’ve probably seen the cops in L.A. drive. I’m not surprised to see this pic.
ya the phone isn’t attached to the ground it stops were the bumper use to be
Oooh okay, I was soo confused by this pic LOL.
(I was thinking like the car fell off a roof, and just landed on the phone…lol)(my idea is funnier though…)
It’s called Photoshop.
1. Despite all the “damage” to the car, neither headlight is broken.
2. The phone stand/kiosk/whatever would be made of lightweight metals and would have completely crumpled or at least shown some obvious damage had it been supported by something opposite the force of the car.
3. The phone stand/kiosk/whatever is currently where the engine of the car should be. You have to ask yourself where that engine was supposed to have gone. The sheer weight difference between the nearly solid metal engine block and the lightweight metal sheeting of the phone stand would indicate that the phone would move before the engine would.
The car likely hit a power pole or bridge support or other (very) solid item, was towed to the current location where the pic was taken, allowing it to be photoshopped.
This could also be the case – I’m too old to think about…just a second…*HEY! GOML!*…photoshopping unless it’s more obvious than this.
And this explains the guy next to the car taking pictures of the “damage” how?
LOL, some corrections:
polycarbonate front lights DON’T BREAK. You need to hit them directly and even then it is only a chance.
Phone stands here are made of thick steel. Just as thick as are the high poles.
The engine moves in the direction towards under the floor during a crash.
There is nothing unusual with that picture.
I was at the gym today and saw a tow truck carrying two state troopers that looked pretty banged up. I respect their work, but I couldn’t help but laugh and feel as though it may have been justified (barring any injury of course).
Im wondering if doughnuts were involved…
A cop almost hit me because he had a doughnut in one hand and a coffee in the other.
From the story you told further up in the lol, I’d say you just need to move the hell away from those cops.
Agreed. Those cops are probably causing about 75% of premature deaths in his area.
What would have been ultimately ironic, if this happened while on his cell phone…
this is photoshoped the car is in a parking space with a wall behind it
You mean that this couldn’t have happened elsewhere, and the car was then towed to an impound lot? (hint, see bodo’s comment above)
If you can’t spell “Photoshopped”, then you wouldn’t know if it was.
Photo shope ish what you wash your Photosh in.
Get off the damn lawn!

Seriously, I’m too old for this shit..
I’m on it.
*blows up the neighbors house*
Oops. I got him though. That’s cool, right?
Yeah, it’s cool.. that’s just a holiday house. I’ll explain when they show up at Christmas.
*walks by sassily wearing a short skirt*
anything for me to shoot here?
I saw some Vietnamese gang-bangers on Walt’s lawn.
Walt? That guy’s a pussy.. bring ‘em over to my place.
You don’t see the car to the right with the banged up front?
It’s ok, some people don’t have a keen sense for the obvious.
yeah on his phone texting his f.b ” when you ready hun”
Why would he text his facebook?
Hey BFF facebook, BRB, g2g harass some skateboarders lol. ttyl.
u sure she didn’t mean Fuck Buddy?
trying to think, what would british cops crash in to, uumm anything
Usually pedestrians.. ever seen a cop car with a pedestrian embedded in the bonnet (hood for Americans)? It’s not a pretty sight.
no igor his f#ck buddy, whats red backwards!!!
The reply button is your friend.
Angie has yet to master basic english… what makes you think this crazy internet is within her grasp?
“Phonebooth II”

Just a smaller budget and no Colin Farrell.
… How?
My guess would be a ‘hot pursuit’ gone horribly wrong.
Texting while driving. DON’T DO IT!!!
During a holiday visit to LA (back in December) they had billboards everywhere proclaiming that texting while driving would become illegal on January 1 or something like that – I could only think “Illegal! Why do we have to even make a law about this? What boneheads believe this is somehow remotely acceptable?”
I mean, if it’s just them in a single-car accident and tax money isn’t used to clean their brains off of the pavement or whatever, I figure it’s just sort of Darwinian, right? But they’re endangering the rest of us – not acceptable. Plus, apparently, the gunk from the broken car can get into the storm drains and hurt the cute duckies.
I remember this time I was driving to work and I saw this woman putting on her makeup while driving on the freeway, and it freaked me out so much I dropped my electric razor right into my coffee cup.
The “Whiskerccino” never did catch on though.
Ok, I stole that from one of Herb Caen’s columns in the S. F. Comical…er, Chronical (but it’s a good bit – don’t remember who wrote it – well, the “Whiskerccino” part was from me – stop making that “ew” face already, sheesh).
*insert gratuitous GOML*
Car: “Om nom nom nom”
I don’t know why, but this is making me laugh.
Me too.
Your lolspeak gland is apparently active and producing Hormone Kyoot. You might need medical attention.
I can has ambulans?
Isn’t nom nom not only LOLspeak, but kind of an internet-universal term for “a funny sound for eating”?
Probably… “om nom nom”and “nom nom nom” I’ve only seen on ICHC et al. Where I’ve previously encountered it it’s “arr num num num”.
Really? Nom nom nom is common language in WoW, quite a few of the people I’ve talked to, and my internet-deprived sister…. Damned Europese, always making it Arr numnum.
I think arr num num predates WoW and ICHC and the like by quite a bit. It probably (d)evolved into nom nom nom.
But “arrrrrr numnumnum” has more effect than “om nom nom”, I think. More Homeresque.
(Actually I’d think they’re unrelated to each other, but that’s not as good a “story”.)
And on your screen we have what is called a “Close call”
Anyone get the number?
867-5309 (ask for Jenny)
Now, I want to see a show of hands of those people that now have that song stuck in their heads. Come on, raise ‘em high!
I have twelve hours of Beatles songs stuck in my head. Nothing else is getting in here.
You’re the exception.. fully understood as well.
I’m 16.
This isn’t supposed to HAPPEN to me.
Aren’t we supposed to disrespect old music or something?
Do like eRando and listen to some Beatles. That might get the song out of your head. Plus, you will be listening to some rock standards!
*raises hand*
yo! but it’s ok. it’s better than some of the other crap i’ve had stuck in my head. however, i had gustav holst’s “mars the bringer of war” stuck in my head the other day and that was fecking AWESOME.
Well, when I saw this, the radio was playing “Echo Beach” by “Martha & the Muffins” (their only UK hit), so no.
FWIW, I’m imagining the note on the phone possibly says, “Out Of Order”.
Perhaps it’s a parking ticket?
Ooooooooooh! Only in L.A. I think you may be right..
After Metropolis got rid of all of its phone booths, Superman let his opinion be known.
Did the phone get its phone call after being arrested??
Who was phone? Who?
The phone was tazed, six times, for not complying with the officer’s orders. When asked about tazing the phone multiple times the officer responded: “Sounded like fun.” The officer was given a paid vacation while IAB attempted to justify his actions.
I’d say the pay phone manufacturer has pwned the car manufacturer. The car is totated, but that phone looks like it can be pulled out and put back up.
but how was it parking?
Is that Preston Lacy from Jackass?
Most likely explanation: cruiser smacked into booth… booth post came off or was cut away by plasma torch… cruiser got towed to the impound with the booth in place… peeps take pics… ends up on failblog.
About the engine: if you look closely you see that the post is not that deep into the front. It’s the *phone* that is hanging over the wrecked engine (and also the thing that crumpled the hood).
About the headlights: I wrecked our Mondeo aganst the backside of a silly lady’s car… and although the bumper was turned to granulate and the grill evaporated into molecules, the headlights survived with minor chipping.
Mondeo – European Ford about the same size as a Taurus or a Saturn.
Well, I am wondering whether the car hit the telephone booth or the phone came and hit the car? and above all, the officer is charging to a non-living thing…..That’s really a strange thing happening around…….
I won’t get into any Photoshop debate on this one, but I think it is real. For a similar and true photo, click this link, and check out the picture labelled “I Has A Trophy” – a red Dodge with a traffic light pole jammed into its grill. This happened in Vernon, British Columbia, Canada, (near my old hometown) when a drunk driver hit the pole and managed to drive several miles down the road with it. Apparantly, they had to use an excavator to pry the pole out of the truck. ( lots of other great car “cock-ups” on this site too!)

No this photo is real. It is a Fresno police car. You can just BARELY make out the work Fresno on the side. It was on the news about 4-5 years ago.
This should be on failblog under “EPIC FAIL”. How can a cop fail that spectacularly at driving a car? looks like he hit the phone booth at 40-50MPH yet at that distance you could only go 5MPH max. I think the only physically possible way for this to happen would be if he drove into the phone on the other side and the car wrapped around the phone booth and goes 180 degrees or the phone booth went at 50 mph into the car. lol, travelling phone booth =D
