This ended down the road from my house. The guy ended up running into the woods and then through my yard (not where the car wrecked). Thankfully he was caught not long after he wrecked.

Arkansas drivers seem way better at getting out of the way than in most other states. They see a police car (especially trooper cars) or lights in their rearview mirror and pull off!

[@alexb.1320]

@@Iamalwayslearning exactly. Until you have experienced a car coming up on you at 100+mph they are ontop of you and past you before you get a chance to do a proper shoulder check to get out of the way. Or if multiple police cars are in pursuit, as we have seen in other videos, each officer bob's n weaves into a different lane depending on what they are seeing, if you moved over without properly looking it would put you right into the path of another officer.

@@patriciarobledo3954 , do the "edit" dots not appear to the right of your comment? I don't comment on mobile so Idk. But it's still understandable. Some people make it their "job" to point out the obvious "There was a grammatical error/typo" and most of the time it is "auto-correct/word suggestion" etc., and people simply not taking time to proofread/edit comments. Most of us are capable of comprehending the intended meaning so we don't have to constantly "correct" people, lol. But you're right, I found myself saying the same thing as they're chasing a manic swerving in/out of traffic, racing down heavily populated streets & yet they're as calm as talking on the phone to a friend/relative.

Because they're idiots. I think once apprehended and tried, sentencing for these morons should carry its own standards of length. I'd think as many of these as are occurring, penalties are going to have to be harsh. I'm thinking if mandatory full 5 years minimum, with no time off, plus full sentencing for whatever other crime was committed. This guy wasn't out there joy riding .... he obviously did something, unless with his limited mentality, he was running because of a traffic infraction. I'd think a felony of some sort. Id call this guy a dirt bag ..... but dirt bags serve a useful purpose .... these ppl don't. Plain disgusting.

That's what you saw on the video. I was just north of where the trooper was sitting when this 300 passed me cutting in and out of traffic. As the 300 continued down the hill they passed over Johnson Hill Blvd, the exit and on ramp just behind the trooper, when he must have finally seen the trooper sitting on the side of the road. He slammed on the brakes and drove with the flow of traffic and until the trooper pulled out I figured he would get away with his reckless driving.
