Police responsibility for a traffic accident at a crosswalk

10.12.2025 15:10 • Question

I read the news that in Pryluky, an official police car with flashing lights hit a woman and a child at a regulated crosswalk, and the girl died. I want to understand, if the police officers were responding to a call, but such a tragedy occurred, what legal consequences could they face? Do they bear the same responsibility as ordinary drivers, or are there any special considerations due to performing official duties?
