A Syracuse cop was looking at his patrol car’s computer, not at a red traffic light when he collided with another cop car

Syracuse, NY Officer Robert Harrington, 35, was driving his marked patrol car while responding to a suspicious person call late Tuesday morning. He was looking at the patrol car’s computer instead of where he was going. He blew a red traffic light and – oops, a great big, big oops – he collided with an unmarked Syracuse cop car driven by Detective Edward MacBlane, 51.
Neither Harrington or MacBlane were hurt, but you couldn’t say that about the two cop cars.
Harrington was not cited for blowing the red traffic light. Now suppose Harrington had been a civilian, do you think he would have gotten off without getting a citation? If you still believe in the tooth fairy, you could say Harrington was not cited because it was the computer’s fault.
