Pa. Legislator Wants To Force Philadelphia Cops To Show Up At Car Crashes
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - A Pennsylvania lawmaker says there are too many unknowns when it comes to even minor traffic accidents, and he wants to make it mandatory that cops respond and investigate.
Last year, Philadelphia police stopped showing up to look into every reported fender-bender, saying that only a small number of the tens of thousands of crash calls they get every year are serious enough to require an officer at the scene.
But Pennsylvania state representative Angel Cruz (D-Phila., above) says that opens the door to fraud, insurance liability, and personal safety issues.
