Originally posted by TourDeForce: Kremi, how could they know where/when the break in traffic would be? You need a small window of opportunity when using spike strips in order to deploy them, and in traffic, that's darn near impossible. On a clear road, the officer can toss them out into the road, but not in traffic.
At 100mph in traffic there was NO WAY to know if/when any window of opportunity would ever present itself, much less where along the roadway it might happen.
Right you need a small window. A very small window. But let's say that strips wouldn't have worked,,, I think something else needs to be developed.
I can't believe how many people on here are calling the 17 yr old passenger a criminal. Like Sandman said they were probably too scared to do anything. And how do ya'll know they didn't try to stop the driver? I guess I'm gonna have to never ride with anyone, because according to a lot of ya'll that makes me a criminal and I should die.
