Arkansas State Police pursuit - SPIKE STRIPS DEPLOYED - suspect ends up in ditch, AR-15 in seat

[@johnscreekmark]

The fact that he has an AR15 (or any other gun, for that matter) is irrelevant if he is law-abiding, and had proper documentation. In which case he should have stopped when called to by the police. He is obviously running for some reason (unlawful possession by a felon, perhaps). The gun could be a complication or infraction for a number of reasons…beyond liberal sensationalism.

[@bluecollarcanuck]

And you'd think that people would learn that if there's one place in America where you DON'T want to run from State Troopers, it's Arkansas. They will chase someone to the literal ends of the Earth, banging up 6 patrol cars in the process and PITting cars at over 60 mph with spectacular results.

Or a way to take a GOOD picture of the license plate and send a ticket to the owner of the car! (Something like: 1st time =$62.50 plus all of the assorted fees, 2nd time =$125 plus fees, 3rd time =$250 plus fees and you Have To Go To Court to explain why the car still needs to be on the road otherwise the 3 months start now, 4th time =$500 plus fees and the car can't be on the road for 3 months... 5th time $1,000 plus fees and 6 months, 6th time $2,500 plus fees and a year of that car being illegal to drive on the road!). Note: if you aren't suppose to have the car on the road and drive anyway, you can see your car at the next county auction!!!

Not the car it's the crap roads, I drove semi through there and the roads are terrible.

[@jedknutson8373]

That's the pavement...

[@metarugia3981]

Nah, that's just the dashcam warping the footage, probably a bit loose from its mounts after all the PIT's.🤣

[@Crazson34]

At 25:50 the Trooper is talking about good fishing spots at 122 mph during a pursuit. lmao

[@ogami1972]

I have driven this road through Arkansas 4 times, and it's never this exciting. I call shenanigans.

[@Brian-mp2mv]

26:25 This is the bridge at Webbers Falls where a barge hit the structure in 2002 and killed 14 people when the bridge collapsed... they were driving along at 8:AM, then no road! In 2002, Estimated 20,000 vehicles cross that bridge every day... I'd say it's more now youtube search: Webbers Falls bridge collapse killed 14 people in 2002

[@RW_TractorPilot]

You're right . I know exactly where that is .

[@Brian-mp2mv]

@@RW_TractorPilot Beautiful country around here👍 I just can't imagine those sustained speeds of 130mph, here in Oklahoma's August temps!😲

[@Chris38908]

Where do y’all take your drivers training ? Your on top of the game with your driving .

[@isaac198428]

32:50 I can’t imagine how it feels driving 130 mph with your car all bouncy on every imperfection of the road while passing normal traffic where everyone is doing about 75.

[@rs3maniac178]

Really 130 mph and my car has a long way to go before it feels unstable..check my screen name.

[@earnharvick]

I am always amazed so many people don't know or don't care that the left lane is for passing only. Yes, you can get a ticket.

[@wickedcabinboy]

Police across the nation have already ceded the left lane. Rarely do they issue a ticket for that infraction.

[@GraveMemories]

@@wickedcabinboy that doesn't make it right or moral

[@wickedcabinboy]

@@GraveMemories - actually the driving population has voted. And those who've demanded the left lane exclusively for passing have lost the vote. Morality is irrelevant in this matter. As I've said the police have recognized this and rarely write tickets for this infraction, much to the indignation of those who would pass moral judgement. Resources are limited and this is an issue of very little importance.

[@Bob-vr2zl]

Taking a phone call doing 125 mph takes lots of experience.

[@chrislj2890]

This trooper cracks me up. He's driving 130 mph and he sounds like he's kicked back in his La-Z-Boy recliner reading the Sunday paper and drinking a cup of coffee. I'm not sure but his cruiser might need some suspension work because I was getting seasick watching this video.

[@judisheldon5646]

My thoughts exactly on the suspension.

[@jamesstevens2362]

Telling us where a good place is for trout fishing… Trooper’s chill!

[@phildonnakilmer5109]

Camera bounce....not secured properly 😎

[@mipamat5804]

Unbalanced tires?

[@athenathegreatandpowerful6365]

It's just being Southern hun

[@carylonraesellers1823]

Left lane for passing and emergency use only. Pass and move the hell over. !!!

[@marmeone]

ASP has the best car chases! I like that they constantly monitor speeds and traffic. They are precision.

[@tyjones5019]

Somebody in Arkansas get trooper Bowman a car that will do more than 130! Damn! He could've PITed him about 30 minutes earlier. Okies need some training from the ASP. And the usual perps, with kids in the car no less. SMDH...

[@oldeharbinger]

We have faster chargers but we aren’t allowed to pit at that speed. They need to raise Bowman’s limiter to 140 like Byrdman’s.

[@bleueyze3007]

Bowman's patrol car(suv) definitely needs new shocks.

[@inTruthbyGrace]

they did pretty well until he hit 128 mph.... ha!

[@dannytreadway4561]

Obviously you havent been on 40 in oklahoma thats why everyone rides in the left lane. Right lane in oklahoma at least to OKC is terrible. Drove it for many years

[@metarugia3981]

Nah, that's just the dashcam warping the footage, probably a bit loose from its mounts after all the PIT's.🤣

[@AuntieKim]

The sky is so beautiful!

[@dr4062]

Did I say how pretty them clouds ☁️ are 😊

[@speedenforcer4454]

3:12 sign reads "state law left lane for passing only"

[@lyndamac1058]

The original officer had some bad ass driving skills and you could tell he didn't want to stop lol

[@RichardKeith-l4j]

Trooper Bowman, you're a Class Act, a real credit to the uniform you wear and the people here 😂the State of Arkansas! It's just a comfort to know we, the citizens of Arkansas have State Troopers l like Bowman watching our highways and keeping us safe from people like this! God's Blessings on all the men and women who wear the uniforms and guard our highways! 🎉

[@Chris38908]

Good job to all you officers great job .

[@MissV301]

Trooper Bowman has such a soothing voice. Very pleasant, especially with the accent. 😊

[@davidkiser4758]

The female cop definitely needs additional training. If the driver would have come out shooting her positioning was useless. She set up 20 to 30 feet behind the other cops. If she needed to use her weapon she would have had to shoot through the other cops in front of her and a good chance of hitting her fellow officers. She was totally ineffective in her position. Why did she not move up on the left and fill in the space and get in line with the other cops? She seemed like she was scared and was hiding behind the others. She needs to rethink her career choice before she gets herself and anyone else killed.

[@jimlaporta8573]

5 trees in the entire county and he runs into one of them...

[@roshailsmedia2067]

Imagine the miles they covered in 40 mins!

[@Chief176]

According to the troopers GPS coordinates, it ended about 5 miles east of Checotah Oklahoma. Thats roughly 60 miles into Oklahoma. Good job trooper Bowman! Glad you stayed with that OHP trooper until the end. C. Stone #9618 ex TX-DPS

[@renehorne5792]

Whoa! I saw that car bouncing and all I could think about was that it was going to fly apart any minute! Glad you all came out safe and sound!

[@maryelyse5633]

Same thought. 120+ started bouncing.... was like.....uh uh..... I know theyre running customed cruisersbut still, air lift is air lift....

[@ellygirl84]

They should register the plate numbers of all left lane campers while on pursuits... so MANY bad drivers, not only is it super dangerous, but it also complicates officers job by a LOT since they have to cathc back up to the fugitive every time they are slowed down by incredibly bad drivers! I would register their plate number and send them a citation via post for dangerous driving and not obeying laws of the road! That would make themthink teice about left lane camping!

[@markbergthold6181]

Glad they’re looking out for each other & that this ended better than expected.

[@johnmichaelkarma]

@25:50 the officer is talking about taking the exit and going trout fishing. hahaha

[@Chaplain_GM]

AT 130 MPH IMPRESSIVE

[@crazyinclarence5531]

Kudos to Michael Bowman! You too are amazing! Taking care of business.

[@lisaarzola1437]

Suspension on that car is going to be fucked after that wavy road 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Where you at? Trooper: idk where the fuck im at 🤣🤣🤣
