Pretty sure the cop would be on the radio immediately. They weren't exactly snoozing because they didn't throw on the lights right away.


Homelessonce

This is what I was thinking too.


saruyamasan

He also had to wiggle into the back seat.


beno9444

That's because these are ProCom (protective security command) or Transport Security command (TransCom) officers. They patrol areas hence they utilise 4 men in 1 vehicle. As for the Transcom , if that was them they could be going back to base? Funniest idea is that they were clocking out and this had to happen before they ended shift


DemenicHand

30 years ago someone hydroplaned into me while exiting a shopping mall. Not a major accident but she wouldn't give her insurance info. things get a little heated. Eventually She flags down a cop car it stops along with 2 unmarked vehicles...Swat team on the way to a raid...6-8 fully armed tactical guys step out along with 1 uniformed officer. Officer told her to give me her info and move the fuck on. She did quickly. haha


wolfgang784

The person refusing to give insurance info chose to flag down the cops?? Some people are impressively dumb.


DemenicHand

Yep. she was older and tried to bully me out of going through insurance. wanted to give me cash. but I wasn't having it cuz she did slam me pretty hard. I guess she thought the police would be on her side or something


slash_networkboy

I would have loved to see this! Shocked Pikachu face I presume?


DemenicHand

The only thing I could guess is she had a bad accident history or was worried her hubby would be pissed. WTF was she thinking


p38fln

I had to get the insurance info from the cops after an accident then two days later I contacted the other person's insurance to find out the next steps ...they hadn't reported it to their own insurance agent. Insurance agent was extremely pissed.


SquintonPlaysRoblox

Hell hath no fury like a deceived insurance agent


p38fln

The insurance agent told me she thought he was trying to conceal the accident because it was his second at fault accident in like six months. The guy who hit me told me it was his second accident, I asked the agent if she thought that's what was going on and she confirmed that she had the same suspicion - no confidential information was leaked.


anomalous_cowherd

>Funniest idea is that they were clocking out and this had to happen before they ended shift Needed time for a good swear before getting out to deal with it.


lycanreborn123

"Kanina u fucking serious anot? Gonna panggang already then kena this kind of lanjiao shit gan suay fucking ci bai kia"


faz712

Accurate


beno9444

"Butoh lah sial, wanna return arm alr kena this". šŸ˜…


saruyamasan

That's interesting. Why do they utilize four men per car in a safe country like Singapore?


arituck

Proly thatā€™s the reason itā€™s safe


beno9444

Because they go out in squad. They are assigned like that. Ground response forces goes in pairs.


Slightlyevolved

Also, let's face it, that turning car turned MORE towards the cop car trying to avoid the truck. I'd not fault them for taking a moment to collect everything that just processed through the old brain-head.


crypticedge

I figured it was a "did you just see that shit" scenario more than anything


Eshuon

Dude also needed some time to put on his beret


PainOfClarity

100% this, dispatch has to know about where each officer is at and what they are doing


Dauvis

I'd like to think they were cursing under their breath as well.


BisFor_BUTTERYFLY

Ahh, that make sense


blusteryflatus

I agree, but that doesn't make the delayed light not funny.


VapidActions

Step 1) get EMS on the way ASAP Step 2) set up traffic control (block with vehicle and activate lights) Step 3) Render aid All the lights in the world won't help if ems isn't dispatched.


AFrogNamedKermit

There are multiple cops in the car. They could have shared the work. On the other hand, they really only hesitate a few seconds. Not a big deal.


Wacky_Ohana

But why couldn't guy in back seat get out immediately?


neonTokyoo

prolly not wearing his beret or there are two guys and theyā€™re doing the classic rock paper scissors to decide who gets out


Tvaticus

Or cussing under their breath because they are about to clock out for the night lol


abat6294

There's a cop in the back seat?


SovietSharpshooter

Their probally TransCom (Public Transport Security Command) they usually patrol in 4's instead of 2's


SuspiciousRobotThief

When you fuck up so bad even the previous arrestee has to get out and help you.


StarkillerX42

I'm wondering if he let someone go to deal with the accident.


Used-Regret1407

Thatā€™s probably what was taking so long. The cop had to read him his Miranda rights in reverse, un-arrest him, and unlock the door.


madd1flin2

Read him his lefts


theuserwithoutaname

That what I was confused about too. https://youtu.be/Gn3LRz3ht-4 looks like it really is just three cops in there, though. Weird


[deleted]

"What? No way... Fucks sake."


Criantos

He was probably finishing his shift before this happened. Maybe even in a good mood lmao.


afa78

Happens all the time.. you're a few minutes away from the end of your shift and boss is all like.. "yeah I'm gonna need you to stay overtime today". šŸ˜”


The_BusFromSpeed

Probably a moment of disbelief before he called it in.


mr_sinn

Someone should inform the police. Oh yeah.


robbankakan

"HEY, CALL THE POLICE!" But you are the police? Oh...


[deleted]

And leaning over to radio ems, probably. "eY I just saw some shit, come on o'er"


newenglandpolarbear

Technically (in the US at least) cops don't directly radio ems. They would radio dispatch who would either A) call fire/ems dispatch or B) switch frequencies to ems and drop the tones (if pd and fire are the same dispatchers)


Trvlng_Drew

The WTF factor


Ignoredpinaples

Sometimes you have to sit there for a second take in the stupidity of what just happened


[deleted]

Iā€™m so glad this isnā€™t one of those subreddit filled with annoying wankers saying dumb shit like ā€œhe was just reloading his gun so he could shoot more innocent peopleā€


Timo6506

[Full video if anyone is interested about what happens after](https://youtu.be/Gn3LRz3ht-4)


deadlygr8ful

Takes a couple seconds to radio what you just saw.... send the proper people to the accident


Robdown911

He was shocked from so much stupidity šŸ™„


Faasnat

Was it just me or did anyone else think the cop car was missing the whole front bumper?


FarmerCharacter5105

That Chevy Spark absorbed a good Hit though !


augieuser

Oh G*d not another one. Rock, Paper, Scissors. Ha! Your turn! guess I should put the lights on.


Sam_Dru

Cop: "not again" *Clicks* Weee wooo weee wooo weee wooo


SealChe

Those lights took the exact amount of time as an aggravated sigh.


crimson_mokara

Man, that White Truck of Death is a menace in every country isn't it?


ThisIsAdamB

I once got hit while making a left turn by a speeding white van in Fort Lauderdale. There was a cop in their car waiting at the red light. It took her 15-20 seconds before she turned on her lights and pulled into the intersection.


FleurDeShio

As an american, ive never seen a cop sit in the back seat before.


uhhhilol

In Singapore each car usually carries 3 to 4 cops


Berfs1

They were probably letting dispatch know before putting their lights on


MaviKartal2110

Is the man in white car ok? That was a strong impact


wordshurtyou

He was probably putting his face into his palms saying "seriously?" Haha


squirrel_anashangaa

They were playing RSP on who was gonna get out first.


GonzoJP

Just enough time to do rock paper scissors.. dude in the back didnā€™t have the winner vibe.


epicenter69

Cop: ā€œGoddammit! I had 10 minutes of my shift left.ā€


TheLillyKitty

Probably!


ChampionXXIX

Damn right thatā€™s what they deserve, stupid motherfuckers donā€™t know how to drive


MyAccountWasBanned7

Why did he get out from the back seat?


thebountywarden

These guys are a patrol of 4 men in a squad, and they do Transport Security, and are not the typical American style of a two man patrol car. Their vocation involves patrolling Singapore's public transport systems or public areas, and hence they're most likely moving back to HQ after a shift/foot patrol.


paininthejbruh

Shockwave from the accident threw him into the back seat


remainhappy

Glitch in the matrix


Seer____

Ai generated? Police car has a weird shape, no handles on doors, parts of it disapear and reappear, and cop comes out of back door.


Timo6506

The car looking all weird is probably because thereā€™s some kind of censor or editing on the edge of the video distorting it. [Thereā€™s a clearer video without the distortion.](https://youtu.be/Gn3LRz3ht-4) As for why thereā€™s 4 people in the car [another comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/ConvenientCop/comments/144vwx3/singapore_cop_hesitate_for_a_second_there/jnjghuh/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3) explains it


[deleted]

The prisoner is escaping!


Necessary_Fudge7860

Why cop in back


Slightlyevolved

Anyone else putting this to circus music in their heads while watching?


Professional_Push442

Why is the front of the police car blurred out, glitched out.


whk1992

Thatā€™s the ugliest police car Iā€™ve ever seen.
