Shoplifters meet semi truck

IMO the bigger issue was the strips right before stopped oncoming traffic. He lost control to avoid the spikes and ended up causing some decent damage to a Rig. I could only imagine if it was a car/SUV.
It looked like the trucker wasn't in his truck(a guess) as far as I could tell.
Didn't have audio.
Yes, it's just you. Everybody else watched more than 19 seconds.
I completely agree with the above.
Our local city Police discontinued high speed pursuits due to a few incidents, and they now call in one of our two Police helicopters instead.
Our national Police now discourages high speed pursuits, but ultimately leaves the final judgement to the officer based on the perceived risk to public safety.
“Our new policy now discourages pursuing a stolen vehicle, just for the sole purpose that it’s stolen,” he said, adding the new policy won’t give drivers of stolen cars a free pass.
“Obviously if somebody is in a stolen vehicle and is impaired or has been involved in other criminal activity, then there’s no strict prohibition from engaging or not engaging, there’s all kinds of factors that will come into play.
“All pursuit policies have a balance or risk assessment portion so our members can have the policies and tools in place so they can judge if something is getting way too risky, as far as public safety goes, for the benefits of criminal apprehension.”

You're right. I refreshed and watched again. For some reason, half the screen was missing the first time I watched, so all I saw was a field and then what looked like a broken down semi from 200 yards away. My apologies. A

"Why didn't they try to shoot him in the knee instead of killing him?"

I understand that innocent lives are sometimes put at risk.
That may even be a family member of mine one day or even me but I have no issue with a chase in this situation.
Time to start putting the blame back on where it belongs, the criminal.
It is his fault if he runs and more often than not it ends well.
And I'm also a firm believer that just because the cops back off the runner isn't stopping anytime soon. He is gonna stay in it for some time always looking around and over his shoulder to see where the next cop will be.
Probably more distracted than knowing they are behind him.
Chase baby, and beat their ass when you get them stopped.
