People still dont slow down or change lanes when the police are on scene.

[@reggiegarza1680]

It all starts at drivers education and the DPS office. Giving driver licenses to anyone. They dont teach this, or even parallel parking

@@reggiegarza1680 you don't need drivers' education you need to use common sense if you see a police car with the freaking light on slow down, change lanes, Stop using you dame phone pay attention on the road,

No regards to anyone pulled over on side the road but especially when police are present

I am so sorry for the family and loved ones's. Jumping to a conclusion, keep your faces out of your phone when driving!

Texas drivers don't know how to slow down are control they car or truck 🚛
Nobody should be in a rush

[@jimmycannon8057]

I live in Texas, and I agree. Texans sucks when it comes to driving, especially the idiots pulling trailers. It's rare you see someone strapping a load down. However, it's not just Texas people everywhere drive like idiots.

I mean you’re supposed to slow down and switch lanes when u see a cop dealing with a pulled over car or accident u don’t stay in the same lane speeding

[@LigmaBalls-007]

You can stay in the lane adjacent the emergency vehicles and slow down to 20 mph under the posted speed limit OR switch lanes and continue the posted speed limit. Not slow down AND switch lanes. You’d be the reason for causing people to rear end you.

@@dekaywill4572 Yea, you're right. I wouldn't consider the driver a criminal, tho. I'm sure it was an accident.
