A man drove into a cop car while playing Pokémon Go on his phone in Baltimore on Monday.

The collision was captured on video by an officer’s body camera while several cops stood on the sidewalk by the car; luckily no one was inside the vehicle at the time of the accident, USA Today reports.

When the driver stopped down the road and exited his car, he said, “That’s what I get for playing this dumb — game.” No one in the driver’s car was injured.

The Baltimore Police Department shared the video on its Twitter page, advising, “#PokemonGO is not all fun and games. Here is a video of a distracted driver who struck one of our cars. #PlaySafe.”
