The cop was doing his job! A supervisor should have been monitoring radio traffic and maybe called off the chase but until then the officer was attempting to enforce the law. If the motorcycle driver had just stopped on the interstate he would have likely just been ticketed and could have went on his way.

I opened up enough lead between us in the beginning to avoid my tag being read, turned off my lights and swerved into a side road. I'm satisfied the Trooper knew it was me, because everywhere I went for nearly a year, I had an SHP car behind me. Never got pulled over, but learned from my mistake. Didn't exceed the speed limit after that, and if the blue lights came on, I'd have immediately stopped. The idiot on the bike got what what he deserved, being in heavy traffic like that.

Question: Do you want all held accountable for their actions or just who engage in behaviors you find personally objectionable? I guessing the latter. Yes, fleeing from a traffic stop is clearly wrong. There is zero excuse for doing so. It is a written rule or law. Policies are also written. Often times for the very same reasons as are laws. When police officers violate their department's policies are they not to be held accountable for those violations? Do they not share the burden of having acted in a manner potentially equally as reckless as those you view as the only bad actor in this equation? What if the cop had struck a car load of kids injuring and killing god knows how many? And for what? To catch some idiot on a bike who is so stupid as to run from a traffic infraction? Bigger things are at risk that collecting a little revenue for the state coiffers. I mean, what would you think if your wife and or kids were killed, injured or crippled because some cop did not follow policy? I bet you'd be the first one looking for a lawyer.

@@forkthepork No, actually it's very common for defense attorneys to use the "somebody else was driving/riding the vehicle and committed those crimes" argument.

I don't think it should play out like that so often, since it's usually not the truth, but that's the reality. The most they could do in a lot of situations where all they have is a plate, is impound the vehicle if they find it at the registered address.

The individual who was trying to lay the blame on a supervisor, or the officer in pursuit, or anyone but the decreased rider, needs a reality check!

[@jeffhoward1222]

Here's the reality...motorcycle rider chose his path. The people he crashed into were innocent and didn't chose this path. If the Officer was really doing his job and followed policy those innocent people wouldn't have been harmed. Now the rider is dead and the cop has QI so anything to make the innocent whole again is on them not those involved.

Unless the driver is endangering people just get his license number and give him a ticket later.there are a lot of people injured or killed in police chases high speed chases in traffic never ends well.

I am a retired Police Officer, worked 36 years on the road. This is just me, but when ever I got behind a Motorcycle and I saw the puff of blue smoke, I just found something else to do. I didn't chase MC's, stopped a lot of them, but Risk vs.. Reward was not worth the chase. Now if it was any Felony charges, Tactics, getting other Officers at key locations before making the stop or potential chase. Our Department rules were to call in the Plate Number and description and location before turning on the Red/Blue lights. I don't have enough fingers and toes to count how many MC fatalities I have investigated.
