+ [COP] KooKoo's mistake (Report Archived by Dracula)

[Dracula]

Hello,

I've reviewed the replay at the timestamps provided.
The main issues I see are from you TehPave.

1. You do not slow down or drive with caution after sirens were behind you, next to you and then infront of you
2. You had clear view in a frontward direction, and could see there was a danger on the road (and if you couldn't, you shouldn't be driving)
3. You aim directly at a pile of cars when there is an alternative route
4. You don't slow down or apply brakes when you had a clear opportunity to do so, instead keep full throttle on until you're literally meters away from other vehicles
5. You honk your horn before you even apply brakes, ending with a large crash
   

Even if you somehow didn't see the vehicles to the left of the roadblock, which I do not believe, seeing tyres all over the road is already more than enough of a reason to slow right down, not continue with 100% throttle.

I'm not going to ask KooKoo, but if he or someone else did happen to have caution or hazard insim signals on at the time, it would not help your case either.
This could be classed as ramming on your part with your actions in this situation.
I will not treat it as such this time, but you will receive a warning for this.

In my opinion, KooKoo was well within his rights to fine you the 300€, as it is one of the larger options for Causing an Accident.


KooKoo, one thing you could have handled better in my opinion is the traffic stop location.
It was quite clear that if he wasn't going to make it to a safer spot, you could either stop him close to the wall and enable your insim hazard signals, or more preferably, tell him to move to a safer location and use the !chase command when it is more suitable to do so.

TehPave, you will receive a confirmable warning for your actions here as mentioned above.
KooKoo, please practice the methods I stated above in future occurrences.
