crap translation,,but its quite funny

"Tramery Subaru of the gendarmes broken on A4 The two gendarmes circulating on board Subaru were surprised by a foreign motorist who uncoupled in front of them. Charles Lantenois The gendarmes of the departmental squadron of road safety of the Marne (EDSR) received it in equipment only two months ago: Subaru four driving wheels, turbocompressé engine, of which the dash speed can reach 240 km/h. Its last media appearance goes up at Saturday, at the time of a road check operation organized on the A4 motorway on the occasion of the departures on holiday. It any more will not be seen, at least that one, because the imprudence of a foreign motorist sent yesterday morning to breakage. It was 9 a.m. 40 on A4. A patrol of two gendarmes turned over to the toll of Dormans. "the accident occurred in the descent of Tramery" reports lieutenant Delhanduy, ordering EDSR of the Marne "the gendarmes were on the point of exceeding a Icelandic motorist when this last is sudden deportee on their lane, with only 40 meters in front of them. There was weight-heavy immobilized on the hard shoulder. Like that is done in its country, it explained, the Icelander took the way on the left by safety but it did not pay attention to the vehicle of gendarmerie which arrived behind him, gyrophare lit "the driver of Subaru wanted to direct on the right to avoid the collision but the motorist," panicked by becoming aware of his error, folded back himself in the same direction "continues lieutenant Delhanduy." the gendarme could not go on the right because there was the truck on the hard shoulder. It thus directed on left "28.000 euros coin Subaru went to type against the central slides before being immobilized with misinterpretations on the expressway, before and the back exploded, but without damage for its two occupants, and without to have struck the car of the Icelander. Because of the circumstances, no procedure will be diligentée in its opposition. Undoubtedly disturbed by this accident, conducting circulating in the other direction lost the control of its car come to strike in its turn the central slides. Enclosure, it was transported to the urgencies of Rheims for a check. The loss of Subaru (28.000 euros coin) is a hard blow for the EDSR of the Marne which had a vehicle whose performances make it possible to catch up with the roadhogs in the event of refusal of obtempérer. Two other models are in service in the area Champagne-Ardenne. The commander of the EDSR ensures that the broken vehicle yesterday, if it cannot be repaired, will be replaced."
