Quote: Because it takes two people to control a SUV.
You're right it only takes one person to run from the cops.
It could take two to commit murder, or rob a bank, or maybe they were serial rapists. Get it through your head that you're basing your argument on knowledge learned after the fact.
At the time everyone in that car was a criminal. If they had pulled over, they both would have been thrown to the ground and they both would have gone to jail until everything was straightened out.
