Cop Car Flips And Catches Fire After Hitting Houston Pothole

America's crumbling infrastructure strikes again—this time against the long arm of the law.

A Houston police officer was chasing a suspected drunk driver early Friday night when she struck a massive pothole, reports Click2Houston. The hit was hard enough to catch the police cruiser on fire, at which point the officer lost control, flipping the car on its side.

The same is true of California roads because we divert money away from roads so that we can make living on the street lucrative and so that illegal criminals crossing the border with bought children can have a prosperous life because supporting the criminal element is one of our values.

That must have been a pretty large pothole.

On one local road I drive like a drunken man because both lanes have so many potholes that you have to constantly swerve in a three block section.

Since Autospies is scraping the bottom of the barrel, content-wise today - with a useless video of a celebrity SUV Christmas present..here is another video that apparently meeting Autospies' very low-bar for inclusion - it includes vehicles.

Watch a Russian septic-service truck explode in Moscow traffic...

No money for infrastructure?

-No sin taxes at the state level
-Spaceforce, off balance sheet "black" programs that are top secret
-$700B for the military and climbing
-Trillion dollar tax cut giveaway to the rich
-Endless wars around the world... always a war..trillions wasted
-Irresponsible representation with no term limits in both houses
-Things need to change in a big way

Typical Liberal response: raise taxes.

Correct response for California: Turn off ALL support to illegal aliens. Turn off ALL support to the homeless. The latter is a choice most of the time and that is documented. Turn off welfare support to people who have never worked.

The Liberals use money to enslave. The money cut will liberate you.

You must not live here - cop cars overturning NEVER happens in NYC. Taxi's and ubers slam into stuff all the time but the NYPD vehicles stay on all 4's.
