With any police car accident that occurs, a full investigation is launched by the Independent Police Complaints Committee (IPCC). This is to ensure that complaints against the police are dealt with effectively, allowing the police force to learn lessons and improve on the way it works.
In June 2010, the IPCC sent investigators to the scene of a collision that took place in Luton, Bedfordshire. The car crash involved two foreign nationals who were hit by a marked Bedfordshire police car just before midnight on a Friday night.
Both of the men were killed in the incident after the marked Vauxhall Astra, which had been responding to an emergency call, hit the pedestrians as it left the road after colliding with another car.
Following the incident, deputy Chair of the IPCC said, "My thoughts are with the families of those who died as a result of this tragic incident."
The two police officers in the car at the time of the collision were uninjured in the incident but the male driver of the second car had to be treated for minor injuries at the scene.
As the police were found to be at fault for the car crash, relatives of the men who died in the incident were eligible to make compensation claims against the police for their deaths.
If you or a relative has been injured in a police car accident, you could be able to make a compensation claim for your injuries.
