Sounds like a good idea.  |
Wow that was far off base.
I don't see what is so hard to comprehend here. Tablet is saying that there is a likely chance that if someone who is being chased by the cops "gets away" they will slow down, ditch the car, and get somewhere out of the public. The sight of a cop car in their rear view is obviously escalating the situation.
There is a reason that is protocol for some departments.
In this case, however, one the cop was hit he was unable to disengage and the maniac needed to be stopped.
