Uh, Colorado. I'm pretty sure it isn't in England with those mountains in the background, although the road sign near the flipped over SUV looks more European than I remember having seen in the US.
Also, just because John Bunnell said it happened in Denver, doesn't mean that's where it really happened. And that's if I remember the clip right on tv.

The police officer runs from the right side of his car, but the speed is in MPH?

Did anyone else see the puff of smoke from the grassy knoll?

i'll just add.....
notice how strong the wind is blowing the smoke and debris?
i'd guess the officer coming out into camera view was riding shotgun.

I believe this was shot somewhere where the cars are right-hand drive, and the cars drive on the left side of the road. The officer would have come out of the drivers' seat.

Hi Folks,
I know this video. It's a UK police video taken on the M56 between Runcorn and Ellesmere Port. The road follows the north Cheshire coastline and the wind blows a gale off the Dee estuary south of Liverpool. I used to visit around there quite regularly some (cough) years ago. I've personally seen 2 matchstick piles - the debris left when a UK caravan crashes - on that road. The wind could be very dangerous! In a car you needed to steer 5 degrees to the right to stop yourself from ending up on the hard shoulder/left-hand stop lane!
Marc
