yeah they could have stopped, but don't you think the police put the public in danger when they pit a car at 100mph? cops have nothing but tunnel vision when they get into a chase all thats on their mind is this bitch ain't getting away from me!, they could have backed off, write down the tag number and pick ( him or her ) up later but to them it's the rush of the chase, a smart police officer would have backed off know that his persue was makeing them run faster, back off let the crooks think they got away then nab them at their homes or in a public place when their gaurd is down, i'm no police officer but i have arrested plenty of criminals when i was a bail bondsman which is a little bit harder because the crook knows if they get caught they are faceing an even longer sentence than what they got arrested for to begin with. to me that's the perfect example of what not to do in a chase, i would not be shocked if the family of the passeger files a wrongful death suit against the police dept. that passenger was in all purposes an unwilling suspect, which had no control over the actions the driver was doing.
but of course nothing is going yo (-to-)
happen to the police unless the family hires a lawyer, lawsuits are one of ways that police dept's look at their policy and sat(say) " well i guess we won't be chaseing people at 100mph anymore" as much of a danger to the public those criminals were, by driving 2tons at such high speeds remember they were not the only ones indangering the public
but whats done is done

They should invest if they dont have a police helicoptor or get the new people to follow the car. THey can back off, And wait fro the call telling them were they went, She is an asshole for driving like that,But i think there were many other ways to handle the situation than spin them out,
Just Think what if it was your daughter,sister friend, driving or in the passenger seat?? Would you say" Oh well she deserves it for driving that way" I doubt it. I believe she deserves puishment for driving like that, But i dont think the death penatly was in order.
And any car spun out at that speed would almost ensure death.
Way to many other ways to handle it, Here in CT an officer killed a lady and her daughter becasue he was chasing a speeder and crashed,
That situation could have ended up with a cop killing an innocent driver as much as she could have hit one.
she was not endangering innocent people enough to resort to performing a PIT at 100 mph.

yeah and maybe they should have a crack commando unit, and a search and destroy unit, but wait why not just change the police helicopters in for some cobra's or apache helicopters
Get real,

She was driving at speeds of 100+mph for 60 miles, 60miles!!!
She wasn't going to stop until something like this or worse stopped her.
Sure the cops could/should have slowed her down before attempting this move but ultimately it was her decision not to slow down or pull over which cost her and the passenger their lives
Maybe the next idiot that tries to run will see this and think twice before endangering other people's lives.
