3 police motorcycles hit the car and one officer died. An article suggests that it was a VIP escort so somebody too special to be in traffic wouldn't suffer through the indignity of having to slow down.

Was this the rear guard or something?

I noted the officer at the beginning, basically stopping traffic. I presumed when the traffic continued the person in the middle of the street received the "all clear".

Side-note: that fireball. Damn.

Just going off of what's in this and a couple other articles on the subject: https://tashkenttimes.uz/national/18270-

Yuldashev explicitly denied that the accident occurred while escorting an official motorcade, dismissing rumors circulating on social media as incorrect.

However, public skepticism remains high as the dashcam footage appears to directly challenge the spokesman's denial.

Maybe Yuldashev's denial is true and it wasn't an official motorcade approved through proper channels (but some Moneybags McGee slipped the officers a handful of Uzbucks to do it anyway), maybe there's a translation error and it means to say that it wasn't an official's motorcade. Maybe he's lying. Not entirely certain why it happened but in the video, it looks pretty escort motorcade-y to me.
