    Default police chase

    man... just saw a horrible police chase on 85 going south at about 9:30 pm tonight. 2 guys on a bike were pulled over as i pass and then all of a sudden i see one of the guys flying by and about 20 police chasing him and a helicopter. he was prolly going 140 and the cop was right on his ass. headed towards the airport to get rid of the chopper i guess but i had a bad feeling he wasnt going to make it far. about 5 mins later we saw that he had wrecked and i would say he died becuz i saw him just laying there. he was actually on the other side of the median and his bike was about 100 yards ahead of him back on the right side of the hwy.

    Someone's loved one put everyone else's loved one's at risk. Fuck him, he got exactly what he asked for.

    What if he's doing his 140+ and hits a car/SUV causing the driver to lose control (because for some strange reason he/she wasn't expecting a guy riding a bike to pop up in their back seat), wreck and are then injured/killed. I mean, if you're afraid to do the time then

    That sucks in general. I am sure like you said it was interesting to see them fly by you, but seeing a wreck where there is a body on the ground dead is very hard to get out of your head. I personally LOVE bikes but hate those who do not act responsible on them. Because those people make all of us who do get on bikes look like dumb asses.

    I tried to do some Googling to find out about this "no chase" law, and it seems it varies by county. Honestly, though, I wouldn't try to run if I saw one of those Chargers on my tail, those things are beastly.

    Before I got online, I just walked in from a day of riding. I never even get stopped on the bike. Even if I am speeding. Everybody on bikes do it. More than likely the idiots were doing something really stupid to get pulled over anyways.

    To run, he got what was coming to him. Everybody is better off now.

    No Sir, I have seen it several times out here in the boonies and once on my road. The guy slid out in a curve not even 1/8th mile from our farm, got up and ran to only be tackled by a big sumbich with a badge. I think the tackle hurt worse than the crash by the way he hit/landed him.

    well i have to disagree about the chargers being that fast. i speed a little on my bike try not to unless im out in the boonies with no traffic. the majority of the time as longs as your not being a retard, the cops don't bother you. they might flash the lights or throw their hand out the window. but typically they don't fuck with you because they know how dangerous riding a bike is to begin with. because most cops ride as well... hell i know a gainesville city cop that LOVES to stunt lol. he almost fucked up about a month ago and kissed a guard rail when he was doing about 80 on the back wheel.

    That is one thing I love about being in a car. But no matter what you're driving in, there is always something bigger than you that can crush you.

    They don't often kill the occupants of the other vehicle, true. However, it isn't worth royally fucking up someone's life, whether or not they actually kill them. I'd imagine that would be a pretty dramatic experience for some innocent person to endure aswell.

    It was just on the news. It was at 85 and Old National. He hit an Expedition and then went over the wall from what it just said.

    There is but there's a catch, Persuing officer has to say one of 3 things possible suspect in other crime, possible DUI, Or danger to society (over 100mph weaving through cars ect.) . Then they can continue to chase. Either way gwinnett countys chopper can be up in less than 2 minutes and you damn sure can't outrun motarola.

    Not true. I am very involved with the police here with fund raisers, the boys club, etc. and they don't allow any eluding period. It may be a county to county thing but if you run they will chase and I haven't heard of but a few to actually get away (only temporarily in most cases).

    Hall county cop "Most agencies do have a "do not pursue motorcycles" policy. Here in Gainesville, Georgia we won't chase motorcycles unless the driver has committed a forcible felony. Hell, we usually won't even chase cars unless they've done something that places the general public, or themselves, in immediate danger. Policies like these are quickly spreading throughout law enforcement agencies everywhere due to case law that has been coming from pursuits gone bad."

    Ga started this over the summer when there were a number of pursuits ending with bad wrecks and fatalities. It is more of a risk to chase then let them run.
