To The Guy Who Just Tried to Outrun the Cops in A Tacoma

I have a different interpretation.

I see a (likely senior) local PD officer who quickly assessed:
1) the likelihood of damaging his cruiser by bouncing over those apartment complex curbs chasing the suspect
2) the paperwork required to document the reason his cruiser was damaged
3) the unlikelihood of receiving a replacement cruiser from the town budget committee

and quickly came to the conclusion, “F-it, let the Trooper deal with it”.

 

Those cops need the "Grappler." https://www.kktv.com/2024/05/01/wat...-off-device-used-stop-suspects-during-chases/

 

I am shocked the cops kept chasing right through the yards of those tightly packed homes. The idiot in the Taco could have easily killed some kids or folks out in their yards. Obviously did not give a shit, as is usually the case in a car chase.

Cops should have called off the chase when he went into those yards. They could have been responsible for innocent deaths, and for what, some drugs from a low level dealer? That is fucked up police decision making.

At the end, the cops are seen divvying up the cash for a job well done. Hazard pay.

Maybe a commercial for Toyota. Can’t go that fast, but can drive over green lawns.

 

Good for you. What’s your point?

 

I think the driver gave a good blueprint of how to escape. Keep circling the projects

 

I think he was looking for another drug deal.

Anyways, bet the driver was wishing he had traded in for the 4th gen.

 

Hated to see the truck get damaged. Would have been more entertaining if they would have shot his sorry ass.

 

There's no way you were offended by that joke.
You've probably been waiting for weeks for an opportunity to brag about that.

 

I saw the end of a live broadcast of a car chase against a Mercedes end with a pitting maneuver: The Mercedes electronics detected being pitted and disbled itself such that it was undriveable. I wonder if the 3gen electronics detect/disable after a pit against it as well.

 

Serious waste of a good truck.

 

Not offended, but annoyed. This is the only forum I’ve been on where a large number of members seem to be insecure about their choice in vehicle and feel the need to constantly put down and talk shit about any other brand. Something I haven’t seen on any other forum, including a different Tacoma forum. Some times I’ve seen this against other models of Toyotas, like the 4 runner. No, I haven’t been waiting to tell that story. That may not go with the theory you imagined in your mind to make yourself feel better.

 

This is an interesting pursuit with a strange ending. I was impressed by how the Chevy held up.

 

At least he had the decency to keep his flashers on.

 

why would you let the internet manipulate your emotions like that?

 

This... especially, since they knew everything about him, just wait and pick him up later.
