The Ohio State Highway Patrol is working to prevent crashes, and the department put a shocking video on Facebook to make its point.
A sergeant was in the middle of a routine traffic stop near Chardon, Ohio before getting hit by a vehicle.
The unnamed sergeant's injuries are not life-threatening, according to the Facebook post. But the department used the opportunity to highlight the law for Ohio residents when it comes to approaching vehicles with flashing lights on the road.
