>The driver of the vehicle that hit the officer’s car was arrested on the scene.
Why? Was the driver liquored up? No license?
I got rear ended by dumb azz drivers several times and when the po-po were called, no one was arrested.

Well, that should tell you something. Chances are this guy was drunk, high, or wanted on a warrant.
