The officer inside the vehicle was not hurt, but as Pittsburgh Public Safety tells KDKA-TV, the officer was both evaluated at the scene by medics and will now submit to drug and alcohol testing, as is procedure when an officer is involved in a crash. 

The collision investigation unit is looking into the crash.
