    Being a group of them together I would say there was a good chance they left a bar somewhere, maybe on there way home to get cleaned up in time to head in for work.

    "...the three "young, aggressive" officers involved in the crash were relatively new to the force."

    Being aggressive on the highway is never a good idea, even for those trained in emergency vehicle operation. Now there are families grieving.
