The new Pokémon Go game is definitely getting some people into trouble as the game is so distracting from what is going on in the real world around them. However driving and playing the game can have some bad outcomes. One of them being driving straight in to a cop car which you’re definitely going to regret in the morning!
A video was released from the Baltimore Police Department which shows a young man who drove into the parked police car because he was so distracted from the game. The video shows the driver get out of his car and show the police men that he was looking down at his phone playing the game, the driver also said ‘That’s what I get for playing this dumb-a** game”.

Luckily the driver did not injure anyone and none was in the car for when the crash happened. However this could have gone a lot worse than it was and we hope that no other accidents appear due to this wonderful game.
