Finally! A trooper who gets it! These are CRASHES and not accidents. Thank you officer Burse.

[@karstenlane6864]

Sgt. Burse sees way too much of this. Someone gift this man a vacation.

[@diannemc4840]

Sorry but the justice system fails us. “They” need to think about the charge of first degree murder for a impaired driver that kills anyone. Like if you agree.

[@Batman-wv5ng]

Dianne McGee Death sentence scam killed three innocent people .

[@tomprosser8958]

And let a police officer shoot them in da head like Al Capone, and his cronies did.

[@christy76840]

They can't be charged with that unless he thought and planned out and kill then do exactly that because that is the law for that charge now murder 2 that's a dirrent story. And I say upon his guilty verdict take him out back of the court house and shoot him BE DONE WITH IT! ANYONE who commits crimes where they kill people or they're of heinous nature that's what should happen

[@michellerobinson1318]

As long as there are Judges, Lawyer's and such drinking an driving the penalty will never fit the crime. Same with another crime against children that only get's a slap on the wrist

[@marilyndesrosiers7988]

Howdy, Sgt. Burse. Not that I'm crazy about these videos. But it is always good to see you and the white-haired JP. God bless you guys.

[@senorajuanita396]

When things like this happen I always think of the victim’s families who have no idea yet how their lives will be forever changed. So sad.

[@TexasLadyS]

A State Trooper once told me that you’re most likely to be involved in a DUI head-on collision if you’re driving in the left hand, or “fast”, lane. This is because drunks think they’re driving in their right hand, or “slow”, lane because it doesn’t register they’re going the wrong way.

[@SKC193]

Sheila Karch That makes a lot of sense. The left lane is only supposed to be used for passing anyway.

[@ratagris21]

This is very true.

[@sharonmurry2127]

Yes, I have heard this as well.

[@donnadsmith853]

Sargent Eric, you are always on point. Stay safe.

The more I watch these and turning 60, I'm feeling happy to be stuck riding the bus

[@rickrickard2788]

Here's the deal with what Scott Engle was asking the awesome Trooper, SGT. Burse. Yes, I, like most, love this cop. His non-nonsense, but compassionate way, should be the standard for all cops, imho. Now, about the "deal". Apparently, this stretch of road, and the freeway on-ramp, have become a death trap. And Trooper Burse was 100% correct, this is ridiculous. Here is the other accident, that had just occurred, 2 days before, a double fatal. See, there is this bar.... it's just down the road. I've no doubt that this will be tied to there, are well. Oh, and before that one? Another, with a single fatal, a few days or a week before. I couldn't find that one. But here's the one 2 days before, along with my comments about it. ============================================================================================================== Decided to post this update I found: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5XGpaWJn7xpe9k Something is seriously wrong with this stretch of roadway, and MUST be corrected. There are far too many fatal's here. Just 2 day's after this accident? A triple fatal, with another "wrong way" driver. Same bar? Who knows. And, as you heard this DA say, there was another fatal just days before this one. Someone has got to ask WTF. (ps, this is Scott Engle's original video, for the accident with the double fatal. the first video, is for informational purposes, only).

[@MattyIce42293]

Eric is my favorite cop, he's a great guy and very hardworking. He knows how to be a good cop, super professional, caring, good hearted, hardworking, dedicated, brave, very experienced, knows what he's talking about in minute detail, veteran cop, knowledgeable, informative and of course protecting and serving to keep us safe every single day and I have alot of respect for him and his brothers in blue.

[@billramsey2337]

This is sickening!This could happen anywhere, anytime,to anyone driving on the highway.No one knows what's coming towards them.Don't take safety too lightly,I think the surviving drunk should never see freedom ever again,for the rest of his or her life.That patrolman Erik was great!

[@mardicheriex291]

; Australia we have issues with people who deliberately ram head on into trucks, in order to commit suicide, its horrible, just horrible

[@kitzykatz1030]

That's so unfair to the semi driver. He gets to live the rest of his life knowing that he was involved in someone's death.

[@unicornhart3723]

The driver off the car that caused this should go too jail for life.

[@samanthagomez7074]

Yes he does Crazy Driver For Real

[@timhinchcliffe5372]

So sad, I hear this happens alot in the US. I think you guys need bigger "Wrong Way" signs on your highway offramps. In Australia we have two on both sides that say "Wrong Way Go Back" that are a bit bigger than the size of a car's hood.

[@danishmod19]

There are so many of these videos that someone is heard talking near the camera, that seems interesting and gets cut out.

[@georgiacitizen7175]

so sad right here at Christmas time.... GREAT VIDEO None the less.... Thanks for sharing.

[@lisakn27]

A lot of people are saying a lot of these type accidents are being caused by people who don't know the rules of the road and shouldn't have a driver's license to begin with.

[@packinaglock]

Could they be from other country's that drive on the opposite side of the road? Then when they drink they forget they're in the U.S.

[@lisakn27]

@@packinaglock Probably

[@vivians9392]

I have driven 45 for miles and don't relax until I'm away from these areas. They are so confusing with oncoming/off going lanes lined with orange barrels everywhere. Then, there is the CONSTANT construction on those lanes, adding more because of Houston traffic. The whole scenario can look different week to week! It really is no man's land.

[@miriamsamaniego3335]

Just insane. And, as usual, the impaired driver survives. He has to live with what he’s done and I hope he has much remorse. This is just awful.

[@4everfreethinker]

Don't count on it. He'll get released, if not already, and he'll be out there drunk driving again.

[@mrj-charles6383]

The guy that caused this crash had such a bad brain injury and he is not a functioning person anymore. All charges were dropped since he is classified as incomptent.

[@brendajohnson5975]

We really need to have one way spikes on all fwy entrances and exits to help prevent wrong way drivers.

[@elizabethcherry920]

I hope people see this and realize that a car is not a toy, I also think that the government should be looking at these types of accidents, there has been too many in recent times, my question is could there be a new trend of using one's vehicle to commit suicide, think about it there are plenty of signs telling a person which way to go but yet the person went the wrong way, so sad

[@billiebobbienorton2556]

If the car is a Toyota isn't it a "Toy"????

[@bronxsmurfette76]

first DWI arrest should be AUTOMATIC FELONY with automatic jail/prison time.

[@Handletakentryagain]

This poor guy. Day in day out he sees this crap. Imagine going to work knowing you have to come to this.

[@scaledirtslinger]

why are they still cutting on the car after the people are already out?

[@gosportjamie]

+scaledirtslinger Sometimes that's done to release tensions set up in the vehicle shell by the crash which might otherwise release in uncontrolled ways when the vehicles are being recovered and cause further injuries or worse. It may also be done to help recover items from within the car that may be evidence in the investigation...

[@TwoBySevenLeo]

Could also have been due to editing, maybe? At the beginning of the video, the cars are apart, but later in the video the cars were locked together in what I guess was crash position? I could be wrong, but that's kind of what it looks like to me....

[@TM1retired]

Chrissie Cooper they re-constructed the crash for thier investigation. Quite often done if possible

[@TheBeingReal]

Waste time. Collect overtime.

[@kinglistosas5010]

I seem to see this Trooper alot. In what city is this where they have this many crashes.

[@JohnDgr81]

A knew a co worker who committed suicide by crashing head on into a semi truck!...after he cheated on his wife!...he was decapitated!...I wonder how many of these "accidents" are not really accidents!...

[@vivians9392]

One in a million!

[@4everfreethinker]

Not to sound cold, but I take it, he got caught. He probably felt zero guilt before that and wasn't worried a lick about what it would do to his wife or his marriage if she found out. Truthfully, I don't care what the reason is. No one should be risking anyone else's life because they want to end theirs. That is one of the most heartless things I can think of.

[@richardcoram1562]

Sounds like it could've been suicide. Which includes, hard illegal drugs, Rx drugs and alcohol. 37,000 to over 40,000 men women and children die in motor vehicle crashes every year. For a perspective, America lost 2,700 warriors in 20 years of the Afghanistan war. 57000 in the Vietnam action. Condolences to the families of these victims. May their souls R.I.P.🙏⚘

It has happened around my area, usually turns out to be suicide or a suicide attempt that takes out someone else instead.

[@vivians9392]

SPEED is a big factor in these areas. People do not follow the speed limit! Period.

[@enriquelopez9124]

Like, they should also have proper lighting& it looks like someone was driving the wrong way.

[@kaylafleury2742]

Good observation. Btw, they do mention this at the beginning of the clip of one driver driving the wrong way and hitting head on with a car going the correct way

[@ronbrock6153]

So it seems the person who caused the crash is mentally not able to stand trial. Does not mean they were unable to stand trial when they got in the car. Just put them down, they killed 3 people, will always be a drain on the world. Crazy that that bigger car lost both people.

[@erikrgalado7751]

The driver of the car going the wrong way survived. His passenger and the two people in the other car died.

4:58. I find it odd there's no glass or debris around the vehicles. Were they moved or did the cops sweep up first?!

[@PhoenixRisen63]

They were repositioning them at the point of impact as part of the reconstruction, before the vehicles are hauled off.

Uhh...cops don't sweep, ever. Road maintenance does that.
