police officer in President Bush's motorcade crashed his motorcycle and died Monday, less than a year after a crash in Hawaii killed another motorcycle officer accompanying the president.


A Honolulu police officer, Steve Favela, died in November when he and two other motorcycle officers crashed while part of a presidential motorcade traveling across Hickam Air Force Base.

WASHINGTON — President Bush's motorcade had a minor accident Sunday when the ambulance that routinely trails the president in case of an emergency crashed into a support vehicle on the way back from Camp David.

Secret Service spokesman Jonathan Cherry said no one was injured and the motorcade did not stop before arriving at the White House. The presidential limousine, which travels near the front of the motorcade of more than a dozen vehicles, was not involved.

The accident occurred a few blocks from the White House. The motorcade's lead vehicles slowed down, but the ambulance did not stop in time and rear-ended a Chevy Suburban carrying high-tech communications equipment, damaging the back bumper and doors. The Suburban in turn hit a support van in front of it.

It is neither a RW or LW issue, it is a sad issue. With all of the cars and many times they travel, something is bound to happen at times. There is no conspiracy. It is just something that happens.

2. Yeah, but the shrub had more bike accidents.

He even wiped out on a Segway and nearly took out his mom in the process. How drunk do you have to be to fall off of a Segway?

3. while that is true, that is not the intent of this post

Presidential motorcades have been involved in several accidents.

There will be plenty in the future. It happens, while sad, it happens.
