A police cruiser's dashcam video caught the moment that a normal traffic stop turned into carnage, and the officer looked very close to receiving serious injuries, if not losing his life. A 17-year-old speeding in a 2018 BMW M3 lost control while allegedly going 120 miles per hour on a road with a 50-mph speed limit.
The incident occurred in Fairfax County, Virginia, on May 1. In the video, keep your eye on the left side of the frame. The officer is conducting a normal traffic stop while standing on the passenger side of a vehicle. The speeding BMW initially looks like a black dot and is clearly carrying a lot of speed. It oversteers into a corner of the highway and comes across the median with its rear leading the way.
