There's actual crime in the city, but law enforcement was fixated on chasing a dirt bike for reckless driving? The irony is chases have been called off for crimes more serious than that.

[@Munditochulo]

Remember there power trip is bigger than there oath to uphold the law

[@RickDenicore]

Your right about that

[@AntonioTorrez-j9u]

Blame the guy in the dirt bike he wasted police resources and made you community .ore unsafe than it already was. He is literally at fault and your advocating for him. If you wonder why the lapd doesn't save you please do a self inventory and come to the proper conclusion.

[@rkgsd]

@@AntonioTorrez-j9u No, the Watch Commander decided to waste resources when the resources are needed for all the more serious crime going on.

imagine how much adrenaline hes getting during this

[@scottw550]

Two RCMP came after me while riding a 76 250 SuzukiMoto-X in 1977 with an expansion chamber, near the Don Valley Parkway & the 401; they were riding horses and literaly jumping accross creeks. They heard me but didn't see me, so I ditched the bike in the woods. They arested a kid with a road bike and I gave one of them his hat back. I actually yelled at the TV during this one.

This would have been me back in the day about 50 years ago, before cities started using ghetto birds to track pursuits. Did my share of avoiding cops on local fire roads myself as a crazy teenager. Not wise to do this!
