Terry has the key point

I have been involved in more than a few pursuits.

The key thing i teach my young eager cops is that to make sure the reason you are chasing the guy who is running is worth him plowing into your families car.

otherwise, let them go and get them next time

My experience with trying to chase bikes... dont even bother

if the bike was really doing 140 i wouldnt have even put the car in drive. there is no point. Math majors calculate the intercept speed for me

my .02

I'm not a math major, but the answer to your question is "Too phuking fast!"

Well here's a key point, at a 140 on the highway, he's no different than a person randomly firing a gun aimsly, going to hit something sooner or later.

Two people in the car were killed, rider? What do you think!!!

Other side.
At 250 KM (155 mph) the operator is traveling at 227 feet per second. With normal reaction time to SEE-DECIDE-REACT of 1.6 seconds the above operator would have traveled over 363 feet while making a decision on what actions to take. In this incident the Swedish police indicate that no actions were taken.
