PIT maneuver ends CHP chase in South Gate I ABC7

Authorities chased a driver across the Los Angeles area. Full story: abc7.com/live-chp-chasing-dri...

[@th.burggraf7814]

That driver continuously relentless violating the minimum speed. Send in a Segway unit for pit maneuver

[@regand7830]

Guess the way they ran red lights at intersections isn't the important part of the risk there, eh?

[@macforme]

Th. Burggraf: Unrelated to this video...did you hear Segway is being discontinued? This is not a good thing for *Segs4Vets* who rely on them to help injured veterans. And replacement parts will become a problem... I hope hobbyists machinists can help out if/ when the need arises.

[@th.burggraf7814]

@@macforme Haven't heard of it yet, but I think it would be a smart move for Segs4Vets to contact the company and buy what's left in their stock. The company might even donate the parts.

[@TempoDrift1480]

Yep. The very second I heard the reporter I muted it. Ain't noooooooooooobody got time fo dat.

[@wes5150.]

The suspect is native to Southern California. I was able to determine that acct he only used his Turn Signal 3 times in One and a Half Hours of driving ! That would make him one of the more Courteous Drivers we have here !

[@frelnc]

I tune in and watch high-speed chases now and then, but I have to say, California initiates chases for some pretty lame reasons.

[@AdmiralPreparedness]

While living there in 2004 there was a high speed chase from downtown Los Angeles up 5 north onto the 14 freeway and onto Ave S in Palmdale and then along Ave S-2 that is behind my house. I stepped out onto our recently added second story elevated back yard deck and I waved. My wife said she saw me waving at the KTLA 5 TV chopper following the chase. I came back in and announced to her that we are moving out of California for any place not in that state. We are now soooo happy here in Nashua NH. Been here 15 years and not missing anything out there. We both left high paying jobs for NASA to get away from the growing and out of control crime there. Palmdale used to be a real nice quiet town and the punks from down below ruined that town. If you live there, GET OUT NOW!!!

[@Jeni10]

The police can’t do what they like, they are following instructions from their superiors. They also have to be mindful of what the effects of a move might be, especially with so many folks on the move around them. Their sirens are the only warning the public has that this driver is coming and driving dangerously.

[@jessefowler2733]

Except when it comes to racist murder, they can do that whenever they feel like it.

[@RichardDCook]

Why on earth do officers risk their lives standing in the street throwing out a spike strip, which usually fails because suspect can see the officer and the strip can't be thrown very far, when they have devices that launch spike strips? The officer can be back where he's safe and not seen, and the strip launches far out across the road. The suspect always hits the spike strip because it suddenly appears and they have no time to react.

[@shreddder999]

or the grappler.

[@insomniapetals4424]

@@shreddder999 I came to say this. Those Grapplers are AWESOME! So much safer than a PIT and easier to deploy with less potential for damage to civilians as well as to police vehicles.

[@joaquinpinon2872]

Oh my. He squeezed through 20 feet of space, unbelievable. Text book pit after a failed one and a half hour following this dingdong. Why would you let this go so long? And the helicopter dude needs another gig. Lord have mercy

[@shreddder999]

Maybe they can invent a self-PITing car. At first I thought he said the pedestrians have to slow down to 30, 35 miles an hour. Man, that driver is going to get a lot of points on his record. 20:14 It's his ankle monitor. He'll get in trouble if he goes outside of certain boundaries. Re: spike strips. If they were smart they would have two in a row. He would not expect the second one so soon. 1:09:26 But they easily had him stopped in the driveway. 1:11:41 _I fought the lawn and the lawn won_

[@TheGuitarman52]

I have seen some rather impressive innovations in deployment equipment for disabling tires from the side and behind rather than spike strips. It is just a question of money to purchase these working devices since defunding implementation has hit departments hard.

They need to design something that would make runaway car overheat and target radiator more than wheels, maybe laser on helicopter or situational spotters with the tool to get ahead of chase but it’s design is only for overheating the engine

[@davebooth7808]

Or dropping a sharp heavy steel spike through the roof of the speeding vehicle from a height from the helicopter! That would pierce the vehicle roof & pass through the floor onto the road stopping the vehicle almost instantly!

[@davebooth7808]
