policeman called to the location of burrows crossing the highway did not make effort to stop traffic going east, instead the officer went up to the wild burrows to herd them away from the highway and neglected his primary duty of stopping traffic.

Prayers are with family. Sounds like the motorcyle did it's part. Why were they hit?
