| 687765 | 2008-07-11 06:54:00 | I disagree with all of you. After all the cop was trying to kill the driver. After all it was only a case of car theft. Putting spikes on the road and wrecking the car without a thought about the driver's life should be a criminal offence. Did the policeman think anyone would stop and get led off to gaol jut because he was laying spikes on the road? He got what he deserved I hope some low life steals your car - you are a plonker ! |

(byzantineevangelization.com) Or maybe he's been inhaling too much of this (www.produits-antiparasitaires.com) or the Rotorua fumes. |

| 687769 | 2008-07-11 09:04:00 | There have been many crashes caused by police chasing cars in city streets. There have now been two deaths resulting from police chasing cars in city streets. How many more accidents and deaths will it take before police stop this insane practice of chasing cars at excessive speeds through city streets? (160kph in this last chase!):annoyed: Police always have an excuse and the police always investigate themselves. It is about time there was some accountability. While I have much sympathy for the policeman's family, I have no sympathy for the police. The officers who pursued should take their own share of the blame - but we know they will not. They will be exonerated. "They were just doing their job." That's no excuse!:angry Until police pursuits cease, the carnage will continue. And these people are supposed to be protecting us? :groan: Be worried, people, lest they kill someone in your street - it could be someone you know and love. |

I take it, then, that you are in favour of police pursuits at whatever speeds it takes and not to worry how much havoc is caused, how many people are killed, as long as they catch the crims?:groan: Unfortunately, that does seem to be the consensus of opinion. How ridiculous. I'd rather seem the crims get away with their crime rather than kill someone in another police chase! They do have an alternative, in Auckland at least. Why not follow the car from the helicopter? The crim will most probably be unaware he is being chased and will almost certainly slow down, possibly even go home. Wherever he goes, the helicopter will see and report. Does not sound too difficult and is certainly much safer. The helicopter is almost continually above the city throughout the daytime at least so they are never too far away. Besides, most police can read car registration plates. That usually tells where they are headed. |

I changed my mind, when they have your son/daughter/wife in the carjacking I will remind the police not to chase but to look for corpses the next day . A month ago everyone was giving the police ********s for there inaction at the liquor store shooting, not allowing medical staff through for the safety of the public, and now we have a change of tune from some people . Should I risk or not, either way they are ****ed |

But I still say the police have no right to use metods that could result in the death or injury of any suspect. |
