Hope the perps died so I don't have to spend my tax dollars fixing and prosecuting them. Luckily, it looks like no one else was hurt.

That is real nasty!
It's pretty nasty indeed. Can't say what the definitive answer is, but chasing a clown at high speed in traffic ain't it. Sure, it'll cost a few bucks, but the helicopter's got a pretty good idea of where the guy is 'til he gets a chance to think about it a bit more under calmer circumstances. Let the Motorola play a prominent part in the chase and maybe this kind of stuff wouldn't happen. Just think of what that poor driver who ran him over is going to have to live with for years to come...
Butch, it looks in these two frames (and one or two after he gets run over) like he's still sportin' his noggin pretty prominently. He sure wasn't using it leading up to this though!

It's hard to feel sorry for someone who puts other lives in danger through their actions.
He likely got him even more times than the film shows.

Just goes to show you, wear your seat belt. And SUV's have a greater tendency to roll over, he should have used a car. Glad it looks like no one else was harmed.

physically, I would not want to be the guy in that car that hit him later on, you never forget something like that

Depending on what the badguy did, the guy who ran him over could be a hero.
We don't know why the guy was being chased or why he didn't want to stop. At least I don't. It's a big shame is the most I'll be willing to say.
Has none of us ever run from the cops before? In my youth I led one on a race to town on my crotch rocket once and got a ticket for doing 10 over. I'd figured he had my license anyway so had nothing to lose. But I was a little sensible about it in that it was an extremely sparsely-populated area and I limited myself to 65 on the stretches of road he could see me. In retrospect he was a nice guy for what he did. It took him about 12 miles to catch up with me and he must have been pushing 100 the whole time! I'm still puzzled by the fact that the Motorola didn't beat me to town with the city boys waiting. (maybe he liked my style?)
If you're reading this, Charley, I offer you my heartfelt thanks! I'm a good boy now; honest!

One night (back in the '70s) we were out under-age drinking and four-wheeling. Got stuck, walked to a farm house to use the phone. They called the cops on us instead. When the county boy arrived we dashed into the corn field. He yelled to us that we could come out now on our own or he'd go get the dogs and we would come out then. We didn't call him on it. He made us walk the 5 miles home, driving-by several times to make sure we weren't trying to hitch a ride. Man, that was a great time to be a teen, with an 18 drinking age! Poor kids today...
I've been extremely fortunate. Maybe it's time I fold my hand and give up my seat at the table while I'm still at least flush.

I think so....
If you look real close you can see that the driver has a video camera in his hand. /forum/images/graemlins/copper.gif
