I’m not sure but I was always under the impression that high speed chases were not supposed to be allowed in residential areas! Especially when all it was for reason of not complying and reckless driving! They (police) FLEW past my house like they were on their way to a shoot out/a riot/ a child abduction…or some other very serious life threatening crime was happening!! Them chasing him at lord only knows what speed only puts other innocent people in danger!! Someone please explain why the heck this is ok! Would it be worth the catch if you hit some innocent person or child flying up and down through several highly populated areas like you all did?
