But if the other car is doing the speed limit then is illegal

@@yeahme8367 we have no idea what the speed limit is neither what speeds they are doing and it is not a built up area with zero junctions. This was a safe overtake. I feel sorry for the driver.

Surprised he didn't hit those cars going the wrong way. England's criminals are just as dumb as ours are in the USA

[@hrsmrt9292]

More harsher penalty for reckless drivers and evading arrest. UK should do that.

[@richardbedford2835]

What pathetic sentences our judges need to man up.

It's not the Judges. It's the politicians that make the laws. That is the issue

[@cp4512]

Why would any criminal stop for the police when the punishment for fleeing and recklessly putting everyone’s life at risk is so petty. If I was in their place I think I’d chance fleeing too having now seen how light the punishment is if you get caught.

[@iilocked]

Blue Subaru was a perfectly fine overtake?

[@iilocked]

Camera car going slow and even swerved? If you’re scared of a car that wants to travel the speed limit passing you where there’s ample space and time for it, it’s time to hand the licence back

[@Badger-w8u]

How can you be banned for 1 or 2 or 3 yrs , when you don't have a licence in the first place ?

[@louie.__17]

so by that logic if I killed someone with a gun, and I don't have a gun license, I shouldnt get charged?

[@ScottZ370]

I guess prevents them legally getting a driving licence for 4 1/2 years after prison. But yes 4 1/2 years ban from driving for someone without a licence who's already in a life of crime won't be a deterrent.

[@BMH1965]

Much of the horn usage was not legal - it was used in response and not as a preventative warning.

[@NGFN]

one year in prison? joke and the four year driving ban does nothing since he couldn't drive to begin with

[@MarcoTernavasio-pv3ec]

Speeding is a crime? I didn't know. So the real crime what is?

[@cameronleehorace]

Why do all these drivers have no licence yet they can drive like they're on a rally track? I don't think the basic driving test will be a problem for them.

[@terminalfrost3645]

because presumably it was revoked before now, keep getting banned.

[@tonylloyd9285]

The Justice system is broken. Should be a minimum of 5 years in prison.

[@miksmith41]

Well....... that was kind of brief :/

All Prison Sentences in Solitary Confinement, No tv, No radio, No phone..

[@Keepingitrespectfulmostly.]

Bring back sending serial offenders to a remote penal colony in Australia, for example. No visitation rights and hard labour. Break their criminality fixation and spirit. Just because British prisons might be full, that is no excuse for lenient sentences. Response to article only.

[@MrSzwarz]

Hopeless British Police... , no effectiveness, no weapons, no sense. 4 years in prison, and after one years he is freed "by mistake"

[@Jon-cu4kv]

The courts issue the sentence not the police.

Forget American car chases I now watch European car chases This is so hilarious I found this video because some said,” American car chases are fun to watch” in penguin05’s chat on a car chase vid

[@thelagbros7675]

i thought the criminals followed laws over there? isn't that the reason gun control works so well?

[@nartnahte]

that's not how it works...

[@thelagbros7675]

@@nartnahte of course it is, why not take the cars away?

[@luampos]

@@thelagbros7675 it is not how it works because gun control makes sure people are safe from being shot. you dont see the criminals in this video getting shot after fleeing because they "reached for something". i see half of american pursuits end up with the criminal getting shot because they had a gun that they reached for.

[@philgordon6671]

They don't care
