So whilst it may not slow you down quicker, it will give you a better chance at reading the road, conditions and assessing the risk. All these combined will help you make 'more' correct decisions, and this is usually the difference between having a crash or keeping on the road. When most people drive fast they end up with tunnel vision, you only really concentrate on what's in front of you and this is what is most dangerous. A trained driver (police even) will constantly look around and assess, re-assess, not to mention they usually have some one else in the car keeping an eye on road and traffic conditions.

They need to look at their rules and make some changes. Either let them go and catch them later or ram the f*cker off the road as soon as possible before they kill someone.

Stop all the nancy-pants sh*t and terminate the chase as soon as possible. Can you think of a better deterrent than that!
