Crusier Crash During High Speed Chase
http://www1.whdh.com/news/articles/local/B42825/
BOYLSTON, Mass -- A Boylston police officer is recovering this morning, after his cruiser crashed during a high-speed chase.
His vehicle slammed into a telephone pole on Route 70. It brought down several power lines.
The officer was chasing two men who were speeding on motorcycles. He was not seriously hurt.
The bikers got away.
That part of Route 70 had to be shut down until the telephone pole was replaced.

The story didnt say how fast the cop was going but there a 4 or 5 sections of that road that I easily hit 130+, with 90-100 mph sweepers.definitely a lucky cop

Re: Crusier Crash During High Speed Chase
It sucks when anyone gets hurt. Bottom line, but my biggest beef with the whole thing is what kind of logic is it to chase a 400 pound object with a 4000 pound one. C'mon, use some better judgement. Lucky the car only hit a utility pole.

if it was only somethin for town/city police for speeding on the
back roads of towns. so there isn't any un necessary fatalities.
such as kids on bikes or people walking dogs and things of that sort.
