Transformer 3 / DC Cops at their usual "Best"

Transformers 3 is currently being filmed in Washington DC.
Some streets are blocked off to traffic as the filming is progressing.
This information has been in the papers and on the news FOR DAYS.

One of DC's finest apparently didn't get the memo and crunches "BumbleBee" when he decides the barricades don't apply to him.

it probably wasn't that officers fault. I mean, they should have had police barricades up and told everyone during their pre-shift meeting.

Yeah, you're probably right.
After all, The DC police put up and manned the barricades...... it's the film crew's fault.
I wonder how much the Federally Funded DC budget is going to have to pay for a new Camero........

The ambulance went out of frame to the left, the Police SUV came into the frame from the left.
The officer driving the SUV was responding to a 'Suspicious Package' call and decided to drive past the signs and barricades and through the movie "set".

Awwwww lol Poor BumbleBee finally got his voice back, and legs and bam! He can't catch a break.

Looks like Bumblebee and the car behind him were filing into line behind the OptimusPrime led caravan. Looks like they were in an "AutoBots converge!" scene.

I'm curious if the LEO was flagged down before he went past the set barricade and ignored the warning. If he needed to go through and it was that desperate, seems like there should have been some kind of communication between security and the film crew. If only there was some magical device that would allow communication between two people in different locations.
