    Washington governor rolls back limitations on police chases

    I hope their numbers have improved since the 60s. Back then it was reported that 75% if the police chases in CA ended when someone crashed, and it wasn't always the bad guy.

    Last week (under the current rules) a Trooper was not (quite) chasing
    a local women, when he lost her his last radar reading as 127.... in a
    45 (construction) zone.

    ONLY the WSP "Smokey3" was over-head.

    Which tracked her to the local Mall, then back out. She was followed, when the troopers caught up with her she said "What about the no chase law", and the trooper pointed at the circling aircraft.
    Are you two for or against the new law?

    Don't know, don't care. I don't even know what the law is here. To figure out my opinion I would need more information. I'm just not *that* interested. I only posted this because this has been a topic here and this is the latest information. <

    So? What do you two think of the new law? Is it perfect? Can it be improved? What changes should they make? Do you think I really give a damn about your opinion?

    Hey, I don't have a dog in this fight. I was just pointing out one of
    your shortcomings when it comes to giving a straight answer.

    And, I love it. You ask for my opinion and then you say you don't give a
    damn what it is. You poor brain addled misfit.

    Ok, and I admitted I don't have one. Seriously. And I don't know why I would need one. I'll tell you about my day in my trip report. And what would rather do? Have a day like mine, or take however long it would take to figure out what's going on?
    New law? Old law? Accident statistics? Expert opinions? What do the professionals say? What do the politicians say? Even when you disagree that's all useful information when trying to figure our your own response. I only looked at that article long
    enough to get a vague idea of what changed. I do a lot of reading and I skip over a lot of stuff. I seriously don't know what the law is here and don't care enough to look it up. Like thousands of other things I'll leave this to the "experts"
