I'm sorry but that's bullshit. Unless they are actively suspected for committing a serious crime, there's no way this chase is justified.

It's not worth risking the lives of innocent bystanders just because some unknown individual didn't stop.

    So the law depends on how fast you can evade capture. Good luck with that.

    Hold on. Do you think it's legal to speed away from a police officer just because they don't pursue you in a highspeed chase through a highly populated area?

    That is still illegal. But in civilised countries the police will abort the chase due to concerns of public safety. It's not worth an innocent bystander being killed as a result of the chase. That doesn't mean the crime of fleeing goes away.

    Questions?
