Surrey RCMP Officer killed in vehicle collision
 
Firstly,

RIP to Constable Adrian Oliver.



I'm not too familiar with this intersection. Thoughts on what could have happened here?

Surrey RCMP officer killed in crash - News1130

Police vehicle involved in serious Surrey crash
SURREY (NEWS1130) - An RCMP officer was killed early Tuesday morning in Surrey, B.C. when his police cruiser collided with a tractor trailer.

Constable Adrian Oliver was on duty at the time of the crash at 148th and 64th Avenue. Paramedics found the 28-year-old officer pinned and unconscious in the shattered, grey, unmarked cruiser. They managed to pull him from the crumpled wreck and rushed him to hospital, but he couldn't be saved.

Oliver was a second-generation Mountie. His father is a senior officer in Ottawa; his brother is also on the force.

Oliver began training with the RCMP in 2008, and was first posted to Surrey in 2009.

RIP.

I think I may have been around the area after it happened too because I saw all these police vehicles rushing to the seen unless they were responding to a different call

RIP... I wonder what the cause might be... Cruiser speedin without sirens? It just doesn't look right... It's 100% plausible that neither driver knew the danger... It's like they didn't touch the brakes at all...

why make an assumption like that ?

Especially when the facts that were released already show that he was minutes away from his police station on the way back to end his shift, no reason for him to speed and I doubt he was looking down at his laptop while driving like most cops do when they're in the middle of their shift or working, he was pretty much off shift.
He was simply on his way back to the station to finish his shift, normal assumption would be he was driving normally


looks like the truck was turning left while the cop car was going straight judging by this picture because of the position/resting place of the vehicles

I live right by 64th and 148th. Thats an industrial section and a lot of truckers frequent the area. no one can assume anything until all the facts are laid out. But the only thing that is certain is that speed had a factor in that wreckage. Rip

We need better driver education/training (regardless of who was at fault) in bc.

This life shouldn't have been lost. Safety starts with all of us, everyday, real tragedy

I feel the same way. Feel very sorry about the RCMP. What I mean the investigator will find what did exactly happen at that moment.
RIP.

swfk 11-14-2012 12:16 AM
