Fatal high speed police chase - Unmarked SAAB 9-5 Aero vs Kawasaki ZX-10R *Translated*

- ***EDIT This video doesn´t show the crash! At 47:57 the chopper report the bike has wrecked. There is no pics of the bike after the crash in this video. Subtitles is only availible first 20 minutes.
This guy did only have license to drive cars, caught riding a bike can result in a 6 month ban. Speeding at 81 km/h over the limit (and more) will revoke your license for 8 month. Bottom line, many riders going fast on 1000cc sportbikes will run. Choppers are used rarely to catch speeders***
Stockholm, Sweden.
A Kawasaki ZX-10R fly by an unmarked SAAB. The biker has no mirrors and ain´t aware of he is being followed by the police.
At 14.30 the bike starts to pick up the pace.
At 17.10 he looks back and guns it. Soon he is gone and this unit doesn´t have the bike insight again. Although the bike is far away this unit continues to chase him for 30 minutes. More than 20 unites including a chopper were involved in this chase.
A heating debate started in Sweden if police acting appropriate due to the fact this was only a traffic violation. The biker died in the end when he slammed into a road barrier, the passenger didn´t suffer any injuries. The rider was just a regular chap going out for a ride on his ZX-10R equipped with a Racefit Growler
Nothing happens in the last 20 minutes, just radio traffic - Авто та транспорт
Did a runner once. Nearly got myself killed. Blew up my bike. Nearly went to jail. Lost pretty much everything except my freedom. Did community service and learnt my lesson. It wasn’t worth it
Skill issue
@@finn6278 bro that comment killed me xd
Ran multiple times and always gotten away... you need a faster bike.. Having a clean driving record is very worth it lol
i ran one time,got away for ohhhhh about three hours,finaly went home......yup driveway full of the police.......yup my mom n dad were pissed.....had my license for three weeks...............yup....they took my license and mom n dad took the car......what a sh!tty summer that was lol
acting like a human being, and thinking about the following: i want to go from a to b safely....
That always worked for me.
Clean record.
Never had to run.
Sure, it took me a minute or 2 more to get from A to B sometimes. And sometimes it took 10 minutes more.
Totally worth the wait.
I drive without stress.
I want to go from A to B safely, without stress.
And even in today's traffic this is still possible.
It is not worth dying on the roads while trying to get from A to B.
And so it is very worth it to drive defensively. And anticipate. And solve mistakes others make. Etc. Etc.

PS; it may cost a brake pad or 2 more than it should,. but totally worth the 25 bucks.

I´m swedish so I can understand what is said on the police radio. And I know the roads that is shown in this vid. We have a son living very close to where it all ended, so I drive there frequently. The chase with patrol cars was aborted long before the biker hit the roadblock and died. The chase was led from a police helicopter. The first patrol car arrived almost one minute after the crash, so they were a couple of kilometers behind. The biker stressed himself - he had no drivers licence for the bike ... Sometimes the road is blocked right at the entrance to Södra Länken, which is a system of road tunnels, due to heavy traffic/congestions/accidents in the tunnel. If so, the orange lights that is seen right before the patrol car at the crash site is flashing. Biker didn´t see the warning ligth? Natural selection ...
Thank you for clarifying those details , Bo . Ta hand om dig .

I wish the U.S had highway infrastructure like you have in Sweden. looks great. sucks for the rider though.
As a cycle crash survivor I can say that skill goes along way but cannot overcome every situation. Every rider thinks they can handle it, until they cant.
I always say riding bikes is great fun until it isn't.....
@@JohnSmith-sj2dk What is the expression, ride for the slide?
@@Orcinus1967 It's 'im a massive retard endangering everyone on the most dangerous vehicle for me to use. When they made me, I.Q. wasn't a priority'.

@@Orcinus1967 dress for the slide, not the ride 🤙
I've done a lot of ride-alongs with a friend who is a state policeman. When a crotch rocketeer would blow by, he wouldn't even budge. He said it wasn't worth risking the safety of other drivers to take the 10 miles it would take at triple-digit speeds just to catch up to him for speeding. He said natural selection would do the job for him.
The problem with your "natural selection" theory is half the time innocents people die.
Problem is tho that he could kill somebody else while driving at those speeds but however it is a conundrum indeed damned if you do damned if you dont...hard one to call.
@@joeking7707 "No" , athe gamble is that if He will back off, we can pick him up later, is a GREAT BET 20 to 1 . He slowed down and PIGGY tromped it again...

Way to many Chases end like this. If the perp needs a bullet, set him up over an underpass. Don't keep chasing and kill the others "you liberals worry about".

@@rodneycaupp5962 Did i say any different?
It’s unbelievable that the passenger survived and with out injury?😮 that is one Lucky lady!!!!
Yep, but she did wear the correct shirt for her friend....
She would of hit him and killed him
It was an omen.
Well i mean what condition she was in I'd say is probably a whole different story
@@kremepye3613 it say in the description no injury ...
I've been a biker since I was 16 I'm now 64. I've ridden everything from 50cc to 1200cc over the years and would never ride like that with or without a passenger. I kept my racing style where it belonged on the track, mainly Oulton park U.K. I've had many off's on the road due to oil and diesel. only time I have ever been injured was when stationary and hit from behind by stupid car drivers I now walk with a limp. I'm afraid this rider is One of many that should not be on high power sports bikes. A sad day for his family.😔
I agree fully.
It appears this was a boyfriend and girlfriend passenger. Never in my life would I ever endanger the one I love or even a friend. Very stupid this chap was.
Crazy guy good rider but wh6 not just slow down he could of still got away from 5he cop in the Cat from the beginning he could if turnd off go into a house and the stay low then go anther way I don't understand this rider r.i.p dude who ever you are !😢
And also no responsabilty to his passenger!
Same for cars. Get a Competition License and feed your need on the track, where conditions are safer and marshalls are well trained.
There are two types of motorcyclists in life. Those who have already had an accident. And those who have not yet.
You also have those who ride like maniacs and those who respect the law!
@@Francedefence You'd also have another approach: from the ones with mopets 95% are maniacs living in the city. From the ones with more serious motorbikes, only 10% are maniacs, but 85% run too fast in the roads (all drivers reading this would agree, but it is my perception).
This is why they account the majority of casualties in EU. Only behind the pedal cyclers. This last are official data.
You have two types of pilots. Those who have crashed, and those who will crash. I didn't ask nor do i consent to them flying over my head at triple digit speeds, putting my life at risk, just for their selfish adrenaline rush. Walk like the rest of us!
hahaha... and that's why I'm an ex-biker! I was always nervous prior to every ride. Extreme butterflies. I was fine the second I was riding. Everyone I rode with had an accident. I didn't, but I was sure my time would come soon enough. Having had a couple of near incidents because drivers are blind, I eventually decided I was literally riding my luck. Oddly enough the one make of car my actual riding instructor warned me as being the worst actually turned out to be the closest I came to being driven into as they changed lanes (and no I actually never cared for speed; just loved the sensation of riding).
I don't think anyone should get a drivers licence until they've passed a bike test; it's the only way to teach drivers. Sure, some bikers are irresponsible but few drivers can be trusted.
Organ donors and non organ donors.
Not too long ago, I was driving the 580 out of San Francisco going home. I got passed by a biker easily doing 130. Someone down the line didn't see him in time and changed lanes. By the time I got there, he was dead with a broken neck. It was just his time to go. Sadly, he was maybe 25. If you want to ride a crotch rocket, you accept the responsibility of your actions.
Need to watch where you going
No when you push your luck you deserve what you get! Its called saving the gene pool 😃😃😃😃!
Apart from the tragedy to the bike rider, don't forget that for the car-driver, even when physically unharmed, it can be a traumatic experience too.
Those superbikes are very very tempting. It takes a lot of discipline and luck to not get hurt in the long run. A friend of me bought a new streetbike many years ago. A few days later his brother (also a friend of me) borrowed it for a short ride of maybe an hour, crashed, and has been in a wheelchair ever since.
@@SammYLightfooD as a motorcycle rider, big bikes take a level of control few have. Mental control I mean: most of those can break the highway speed limits in first gear. It's insane.
I'm looking at my next bike to move up from a 300cc (it's my main means of transportation) and I'm mainly looking at versatile 650cc adventure bikes, but I gotta be honest the 65-70hp of the bikes I'm looking at make me afraid. I'm good with my 300cc because I can't speed unless I really really try to, but at the same time it's not enough to stay at highway speed and it's not comfortable...
what I can't understand is....(he has a passenger), why do it, when you got someone riding with you.
17:21 is where he made the decision that led to his death. He had slowed down and at that point could have just pulled over
Why do it even if you don't have a passenger
Because he was a moron...
@T Turner no bcs with that bike it is easy to get away and bcs he has no plate thats why
I’m sure they both agreed to run but if not thas messed up
I’ve had 900’s and 9-5’s, always Aero’s, for over 30 years. I’ve left many a “really fast car” behind. They are the most underrated fast cars. Their speed and acceleration surprises most, even bike riders. Long live old SAAB’s.
They were like lightning with 0-60 around 9 seconds
where are they now?
Quick (for the day) between 50-70mph.
@@mudejartrainingnaturalscie6938 In my garage.
My Volvo s60r did the same thing to me, upon buying it I was like well it’ll be a good reliable car. Little did I know that 5 cylinder turbo setup was a rocket!
What kind of debate can there be?
The motorcycle driver violated the rules and did not even intend to stop, he hoped to hide - the result is obvious, the motorcycle driver drove himself into the grave and almost took another passenger there.
As my grandmother said, if there is no brain in the head, then the doctor will not help!
I know, these idiots on here are saying it is the cops fault the dude croaked. A bunch of modern idiots.
the debate is that minor victim-less violations should not lead to a death

Regular chaps don't drive powerful bikes without license and without a license plate. This goes to show what can happen if you think you can drive however the hell you want in a public road putting everyone at risk. I'm just glad the passenger wasn't hurt.
Was not luck....
@@anthonyparadis997 was so
I've been riding on and off road for 40 years and he actually rode pretty well.
@@sillyoldbastard3280 Yeah, he might not have a license because his was revoked or something. This behaviour isnt something well adjusted people normally engage in.
When I began riding while in h.s. (1957) , it was on a new lightweight with a top speed of about 70mph and our speed limits were in the area of 45 to 50 in semi-rural areas leading to where my job was at a grocery store. Many excursions were passed with a break-in speed of 35mph and I had some small accidents that lead me to learn what it was about. Fast forward to today and the environment and attitudes are both inflated to the point that driver ability isn't broad based and riding carries more serious risks. I spent about 20 years as a bike mechanic and now retired but when I even think of blending with today's traffic on a motorcycle, it actually scares me.
When you were young.......I think you are 87...in my country FRANCE ..they weren t...(speed limite)........ in 1968 ...it s a lot more dangerous today...IT S BAD TO DRIVE LIKE THAT... too much traffic jam ....and that for all citizen....😮to you whale.....
@@schirmeyerb I'm now 81. Driving in some form was part of my occupations during my working career. Now I hate driving.
@@schirmeyerb You should check your keyboard, there is something wrong with the Dot and Space Key.
As an HR Director, hired a nice young fella who had a background in Rally Car Racing. You would assume he was a "careful" and skilled driver when on or off road. I had driven with him in a car and indeed he seemed quite subdued, patient, and aware of his surroundings. Jump forward to a Saturday morning when he decided to ride his sport bike to work and unfortunately, crossing a bridge at a high rate of speed he lost control, hit the concrete median and was killed. The bike continued on for another 500'. Sad day.
Riding a motor bike at high speed is totally different from a car. Always have the headlights on and when one over takes, have a gap of at least 10 feet. He should have slowed down at that junction. It was obvious that someone might pull out. I travel across Thailand all the time at high speed
A high rate of speed or a high rate of distance?
@@rainerzufall689 Rate of distance? Dude...
@@TK-cl1jm It rarely pays off trying to sound smarter than you really are. Just use the regular terminology:
rate of distance = speed
rate of speed = acceleration

Exactly. Fellow young idiots trying to shift the blame in these days when we increasingly seem to live in societies where people think they can do whatever they want just cuz it feels good. Selfish individualism that's all.
@@summoned9476 Roads are public, take your bike to your own private track
I get sick of the blame that gets thrown at the police instead of at the idiots breaking the law. If the guy on the bike wasn't speeding in the first place, there would have been no need for a chase. People have forgotten what personal responsibility is, they love to throw the blame onto others. The rider caused the crash, the rider caused the chase, the rider made the decision not to stop, the police did their job, the rider paid the price for his own actions.
***** The biker had no sight of the following cop, except for about the minute after he first noticed and flipped off said cop.
***** well that makes sense? "Look, there's a biker posing great risk to other civilians by jumping red lights, switching lanes swiftly and without signals, going 110k+ in the city, 200k+ on freeways and that lacks license plates, side mirrors or any regard for other traffic. Let him off guys, we shouldn't escalate things..."
***** They kept a distance and didn't push the biker to go on after around the 20m mark in the video, the only police unit having eyecontact from there on till the crash was the chopper, so the police "played it safe" from when the biker took off the freeway, and untill the crash, that was a whole 25m+ where the driver drove like a lunatic without a cop insight!
It's a sport ! I taught my kids if you want to catch the cat,don't chase it .
shut your mouth..
His best ride turned out to be his last. A biker co-worker ended up with a fence post through his side when he ran into gravel. He lived. Another co-worker's brother lost his leg from knee down when he slid on pavement. All fun and games until it isn't.
Sad ending. I would never run like that on a bike with a passenger.
happy ending for people who dont like their lives put at risk by some hand job on a bike.
.......at least you admitted to that, you wouldn't be that stupid too. Yet, there are some that don't and this guy was one of them, as he surely didn't care, of his foolishness of actions. His demeanour certainly says it all.........Speed Kills!!!

You're right it was awesome but I'll tell you what if I was a police chief I'd fire anybody to put anybody like the days are like that with the police driving crazy that was too fast they didn't rob a bank
Do'nt forget the high speed drive round Paris!
I agree, Cloggie. I am a fellow biker, and I would NEVER put another life in danger like he did. The passenger on that bike is lucky to be alive. When I see someone ride like that with a passenger, it saddens me. Clearly, someone riding a motorcycle without the proper training. People on sport bikes think they can ride fast just because they own one.
People's stupid belief they are invincible
I believe asshat riding on any type of bike should be done solo.
In this case, the police were ordered to stand down because the chase became to risky. The Police can be heard in this video they would crash into him. Also they ignored a direct order from the commander and said let's get this sob. I remember it was big news back then. The Police caused the death.

Women tend to love the bad boys and then suffer the consequences. Many murderers have lines of women queuing up to them, wishing to be the next victim.... Something is very wrong with the women of today.
It's depressing how much the variety in traffic has changed in just 10 years. There are a lot of 70s/80s/90s cars in this video driving around normally that are now uncommon/rare today. I was paying more attention to all of the cars they passed instead of the police chase.

Try 25 years ago. Roads were incredibly quiet and drivers respectful. Biggest thing, they indicated! They waved at you and had curtesy. Now it’s just selfish self-centred arrogance ‘me,me’. Glad I drove in those ‘days’ because it ain’t coming back! Driving was a passion and experience and bloody enjoyable. The only place I experienced anything like it today was driving over 200miles away to the highlands of Scotland. Now with the NC500 even that’s destroyed….
Fuck police shits
Bikers can out maneuver the police on rare occasions, but the fact that it would've been only a 6 month ban is something to take over a death.
Out maneurver a police car, sure, but with helicopters and communication you've really got to be a complete loser, and dumb beyond belief to think one bike against a police force stands a chance. And with the abundance of cameras everywhere now maybe 'dumb loser' is too complimentary to such people!!!
Or they shouldn't chase people going 220kph?
People rob others and these cops don't do shit, but a dude srives fast and they set the whole department on them.
Not only do they kill the person, but they seriously risk the public.
If you ride like that eventually it’s going to catch up with you. Total disregard for other motorists who could have died as a result of his actions. I ride a motorcycle and I ride safe and sane. I have no desire to scraped off the road with a stick and a spoon. I’m sorry for the loved ones left behind.
Moral to the story, 1: If you don't have a license then get one, 2: When you're on public roads obey the speed limit, 3: If you don't want to obey speed limits then take your bike to a track where no one will get hurt because of your ego. 4: You may be able to out run a V8 but you will never out run a two-way. SMH
I would add... And if you're going to pick a fight with the most organised and largest gang on the planet, with an outrageous vehicle budget (they even have helicopters) and impeccable communication; when caught, give up because they won't. Sometimes its 'game over', and you've gotta accept you're a loser.

The passenger was practically a hostage during the chase. These chases make very little sense to me, there is a good chance that someone innocent gets hurt.
There are two kinds of motorcyclists: fast riders and old drivers.
There are no fast old drivers.
And as for the heated debate that started in Sweden: he chose to run away from the police, he could have just stopped and take the fines. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. His responsibility and his only.

It's a very sad thing to talk about death. But dying out of stupidity and reckless driving plus dragging along someone else with you is a real suicide.
P.S. I liked because of the whole un-cut un-edited aspect of this news. It's rare to see the whole story like this. Did the police release this? I know it's very long, but sub tittles all the way through would be good for accuracy.
I had a Saab 9-5 Aero a few yrs ago and they are very fast cars. I only paid £300 for mine in the uk and with 260hp 270ft/bs torque they make for really cheap performance cars.
-------------> Hi king, we are proud of You !!!!!!
It appears to be the same world-wide. People driving along taking absolutely no notice of the siren. They don’t move over, some actually accelerate to get past the car in front of the them, just in case they lose a second it two. So dangerous for all concerned.
This, ‘I’m driving’ here’s attitude is very frustrating.
The "Ballroom Blitz" on the radio before they initiated the attempt to stop cracked me up....and turned out to be for the last dance.
Hitting something on a motorcycle at over 100 mph is a lot like falling out of an airplane, from 10K feet. The impact is about the same (terminal velocity of a falling human is about 118 mph).
Only feels like last year when i first saw this video. Can't believe how quickly time goes by.

11 years ago and im still thinking of this incident from time to time becaus im also in to motorbikes.
I watched this video several times "10 years ago", from a comment I wrote at the time, sitting at this desk. Crazy. I think about this video from time to time but forgot what it was called. Now it just popped up again. That deserves another viewing and a cold one. 🍺
Drive like hell! And you will probably get there.
I love the comment the cop makes when the Volvo wagon is in their way..."Damn Volvo...girl's chewing bubble gum and occupying left lane"
Drivers all over frigging hogging that overtaking lane. See the same gits here either not paying attention or simply refusing to give up the lane.
@Donald Polson maybe she was doing her civic duty trying to slow the haphazard gun toting law breaking city employee down. For her and our safety. Good girl. Fire all the cops on scene that chased. Cite them for traffic violations as well.. they were orderd to stop pursuing.. that would be equal justice. PERIOD
@@DW-ts5ki Possibly but I'm talking about drivers in general. A whole lot of them are in that lane before the police arrive - same as in UK. That lane should be empty unless overtaking. Think so many think it's an extra lane to cruise in
@Donald Polson when traffic is high, absolutely it is a travel lane. If you're doing the speed limit. that lane is to be used. It's not just for passing. If your doing the limit no one should be passing. I will give it up to faster moving vehicles. That cop is a jerk
@@DW-ts5ki the left lane is to only be used for overtaking or if there's a queue of cars. Cruising 120 on a 120 road and refusing to let others behind go past you because you can't get the thumb out of your ass and switch to the right lane is illegal and makes you eligible for getting fined. I'd recommend you read the lawbook next time you make such a statement on Swedish roads.
Swedish law demands that speeders be clocked over a set distance and their speed averaged by the on board computer. This is why these cops had to follow him until he got back on the open road, at which time his speed was averaged at 127 Km/h (135 mph). At that point, they became the arresting officers; so, although the bike was being tracked from the sky and road blocks were being erected, the arresting cops had to be there when the bike was stopped. In Sweden, it is not sufficient to simply identify the bike; its offending driver must also be identified at the scene to prove he was the one driving it. Thus, these cops were not trying to overtake the bike once the violation was verified; and the driver of this cruiser was an incredible pro who waltzed through traffic at 125 mph with no lurching, swerving, heavy-footed braking, or close calls: poetry in motion. Compare this to the local cop we got stuck behind at one point.
That matches with what I read about Sweden's laws about having to catch the very driver, not just identify the vehicle.
It's a loophole for the crazy and just madness.
In my native Germany, you may get away once or twice by denying to be the driver - but you'll soon be obliged by court order to document every single trip made with any vehicle registered in your name - including the driver's identity.
I wonder how long the Swedish government and parliament have allowed this to go on...
127 kmh is 79mph not 135mph.
The fact that he had a pillion on the back was enough reason not to chase. Quite often the pillion is the one to suffer. I'm sorry, but dont pretend you had nothing to do with the result.
Thank you for the tour of your fine expressways and tunnels. I've never seen that many roundabouts... Dizzy 🥴
The thing is, they already had a chopper on his case. Over here in the UK, once the Chopper has eyes, the police fall back, sometimes to a mile to avoid panicking the suspect. This death could have been avoided by simply calling it off or backing down once the Chopper got to him.
+TheBlackRussian The chopper reported the crash at 47:57 in the video. The car reaches the crashsite at 51:42. If we assume a speed of 100 km/h during that time, it was probably a higher velocity though, that is more than five kilometers. That's over 3 miles.
Dalroc
no, by the time the car reaches the account the crash area is already filled with cops. I see more then 7 cop cars already.
52:58 she seems cute
... of course ! It's SWEDEN !
Fuck you!

I always get a kick out of police exceeding the speed limit, driving recklessly, endangering the public safety of other drivers around them, all in order to catch up and pull over and interdict a speeding motorcycle or car.
dont try to act like ghostrider if you arent him
ghostrider était un policier, toute son histoire est fake et n'a servi qu'à pousser les motards à faire pareil.
With the passengers life at risk, thank god the passenger survived
Here in Australia the pursuit would have been called off.

Pursuits are difficult to judge.
In Australia we have a problem where everyone knows if they are dangerous the police let them go. So when a pursuit starts the driver increases the risk - swerve at oncomming traffic, swerve at pedestrians and drive on the wrong side of the highway - and the pursuit gets cancelled, rewarding the crook.
In a way the safety policy causes much more danger than anything else.
Like the burke st scenario lol. Following miss daisy from Altona all the way into the city at low speeds like they were going on a picnic now that could of been terminated right from go but no let him have the entire highway n Westgate to himself and bystanders got hurt n killed in this carnage! And to make it worse at the intersection only 2 guys had the balls to intervene with a baseball bat, that done nothing they needed to disable the car not the screen, plus on the vine they were going to get charged for risking there lives and others WTF... And that car could have been stopped right there if those people waiting in there cars watching driving through the intersection like 😮 yeah we see this everyday bullshit absolutely gutless wankers! Let this happen His car could of been sandwiched right there! N then Rammed front back and sides! But Hay how do you get the biggest😢😢 headline in the herald sun and around the world it's just there on Todd road perfect view of the Westgate bridge! Just disgusting
The bike at the beginning is a different one, that was a solo rider in a black jacket and had a wider taillight 0:20. The bike in the police chase had a passenger who had a white design on her black jacket 15:15.
Damn, you are right! He got away
That's a police bike. You can see the flashing lights reflected off the road.
Look how the biker weaved through the lane after he sped passed the police car
a) This was filmed in July and in Sweden it never gets dark in the summers, in the winter on the other hand the sunset is at 3pm.
Damn right. That was my first thought... how could he be doing this with a passenger on his bike. If it's just him, that's one thing (although still risking lives of other motorists), but when you have a passenger with you, take some responsibility and don't risk their life as well! Or at least, let him/her off during the few seconds that he's well ahead of the cops.
I don't drive fast with other people in the vehicle. If I kill myself it's on me.
Why did the police continue the persuit? She has every right to be be angry with the police for continuing the persuit despite the dangers.
At least one of the police in the unmarked Saab seems to be unexperienced in car chase. He ask his college if they shall turn of the blue light, and they are overpassing cars on the inside in over 200kph!!!
well stated Eric, he had opportunities to drop off his passenger and carry on and these things need to happen EARLY in a chase before helicopters are involved, once they are its no longer rational to attempt a getaway.
I get your point, but contrary to common beliefe, there are female daredevils too. I mean, can we know for sure that she didn't urge him to take those risks because it was a turn on for her? Just a thought.
This chase led to police not being allowed to chase after motorcycles.
That isnt entirely true. They cant chase you if you ignore signs to stop for example. But they are allowed to chase you if you are endangering other people. Speeding and reckless driving is endangering other people. There have been a bunch of mopedists and MC speeders that tried to weasel their way out of a sentence with that, and the police has never been charged for that very reason: Driving irregularly at high speeds pose a risk to other people on the road.
WHY? That is so stupid. It emboldens dangerous criminals to just let them drive so fast and crazy.
What a sad ending for all concerned, I have to say well done to the Swedish, very professional
TO ALL OF YOU GUYS SAYING THAT POLICE SHOULDN'T FOLLOW SPEEDERS: If the police don't chase people going over 200km/h, you send out a signal to everyone, that if you just go really fast, the cops won't get you.. I don't know about you guys but I would not want to send out a signal like that to the people.. Just saying :)
speeding shouldn't be a crime. Now crashing into someone should be. You should be able to drive as fast as you want, but if you wreck into someone then you should pay the price. If you make speeding a crime you are essentially making it a crime to do no harm. All this potential is bullshit. You have the potential to harm people at any time. You are brain washed and a supporter of governments collecting billions in ticketing people for non crimes. Why don't you wake up?
Krumple Themal A 50 kp/h speed limit is there for a reason.. So is a 30kp/h speed limit.. Break distance, reaction time, speed at impact etc.
Allow people to drive 100 on a current 50 kp/h zone WILL get hundres of people killed every year. Wounded will turn into deaths. Even if the dead person was in the right (Right of way, green traffic ligt etc etc)
A car is a weapon at high speeds. Even motorcycles are. I know, because I've been hit by one ;)
inT_Hyper yeah tell that to the germans on the autobahn. You are just like all the others, you have been brainwashed into thinking people are incapable of making reasonable decisions on their own and need a government to tell them how to behave. It is done this way to maximize tax revenue for going 5 mph over the limit. To create criminals out of non-crimes. You have bought it hook line and sinker and believe you are safer for it when you are not.
Krumple Themal That's on the autobahn. Do you see pedestrians there? No you don't. There is a big difference.
I would personally prefer if all highways were like autobahn but to have no speedlimits in crowded citys or were there are pedestrians or other types of nonprotected travellers.
Would you like people to drive in 170km/h outside a school?
Krumple Themal
since I am German I can perfectly answer onto your statement. Yes we have the Autobahn, with parts which don't have any speed limit at all, but just like that we also have many many parts on the Autobahn which do have speed limits like e.g. 100, 80 or 60 km/h (62, 50 or 37 mph) simply for the reason of a potentially hiher crash rate, like in/nearby citys, highway intersections, slippery or windy bridges, hard curves etc., in Sweden things like (real) roadtrains are to be added. There are also Autobahn exits with a speed limit of 40 km/h (25 mph) - and that's exactly because drivers CAN'T always determine the hazard in an unknown road section or the curve.
The task of the police services, the Autobahn / or in general highway maintenance authorities, the planning authorities etc is actually to prevent crashes before they happen, not just act when they have happend and then sue the guilty driver (or the weather, ...).
Seems like the Swedish police acted in a very cautious manner. If this was in the States or Australia the cops probably would have knocked him off his bike. The fact is when you run from the cops you put yours and others lives at risk. Sad result for a bad decision to flee.
Cops wont ram you off your bike in the U.S 😂
I hope the motorcycle rider thought it was worth it in the end. He had potential to pursue a racing career with his speeding skills, but his ego got there first. He had no respect for the passenger and other road users. The Police Officer driving the car showed great driving skill, yet his life was put in danger driving that speed. Overall a sad story and it was really down to one person who no longer walks among us. It is not worth it!
One thing I don’t understand is how he caught up to that bike when he was at a stop.
Helicopter
Been looking through comments. Basically, what most people think is that the driver deserved to die cause he put everyone at danger.
Then the counter argument was that the cops should have just stopped chasing. Cause he was just doing a tiny traffic violation.
First, of course he doesn't deserve to die and especially not the passenger.
Second, I am no expert or anything but a police chase for over an hour is not a tiny traffic violation. Also, the police did announce who they were, you can hear the sirens.
When the police was just behind the motorcycle with sirens on, what they got was the finger.
It was obvious that this driver was not going to stop and continue to drive recklessly and in high speeds thus putting everyone at risk and not just themselves.
It is unfortunate that it ended with his life but it was fortunate no one else got injured.
Yeah if a motorcycle hits a car it can result in killing more then the driver. Like this: www.trafiksakerhet.se/images/ovriga_images/bil_mc_krock.jpg
That happened in Sweden and killed the both people inside the Golf instantly. It was at a lot lower speeds than this, too.
So law enforcement should allow criminal behavior?...I do not agree.
Johnny P Donno who you responded to, as I thought the same as you.
There is they who say "Should have let him go".
But that basically tells everyone that if you do something illegal that endangers others, the police will just ignore it.
It is a naive and rather self-destructing way of thinking.
stoffni no it does not. the police should back off and even let the perp go and they could have enough to identify the felon and arrest the creep
@Robert Longwill thats the point,in sweden you have to catch him in the car / at the bike, because it could have been an other person that was driving,so you have to catch him directly.Swedish Rules...
Absolutely right - not only was the Kawasaki rider a cocking a snook at the police, but at the law, at other road users and society in general, to say that they didn't matter, that his individual freedom counted more than the common good and common safety.
Yes and as a great man once said( Good Riddance to bad rubbish) 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!
if you're head is stupid something else will suffer. i've met this guy a few times. really nice guy, sad he had to go out like this, but unfortunateley he took some bad choices.... R.I.P
not taking part for no one more then its been way to much bikers and moped riders that get killed for nothing as the police as they say to blame someone els "just whant to look at the bike".
the guy acted stupid but the police going on for an hour and be a danger of the public for a speeding is just as stupid.
as heard on the film the driving police is seen this as a funny play as much as the biker probably feelt like ghostrider.
I’ve riding Harleys since 1976 and thankfully never been in a serious accident. It’s hard to have sympathy for some of these idiot riders today. You wanna play you gotta pay.
The biker had ample opportunity to pull off into the woods and wait it out.
Not really the helicopter was on him the sensible thing would have been to stop and accept the consequences for the fact he'd broken the law.
@@Lamster66 No helicopter is that fast in the air. At the end yes, but in the beginning no. Park in the woods or at a shop with some other bikes or cars, no one will notice. And walk away and never collect it again leave it. And get a coffee.
They could have stopped him several times just by getting out of the car at the traffic lights. High speed chase seems quite unnecessary here.
Say that to the guy on the bike.
Peter Stegman the police Said that they didnt dare go out to get him at the red lights because of the motorcycle meet at mcdonalds

That Saab turbo got to do some work there!
Obviously I cannot prove he was driving 150km/h, that was my estimate from my experience of driving that stretch of road at least 2-3/week. It's hard to make an exact judgement based on video. The officers who saw the event live made another judgement. The point is he was well over the limit to lose his licence and put others (his passanger) in harms way. I can however prove the speed limit of 70km/h as I drive there on a regular basis. The normal pace of the traffic on that stretch is 80-90km/h
Damn, whatever you are doing wrong, it's never worth losing your life over. 😮
That's how rational people think like.
Unrational people be like "holy crap I'm gonna get a speeding ticket; I bet I can lose this cop if I step it up to 280 mph around the city".
Sometimes it really is worth it. You no longer have to be a witness to humanity.
sometimes it is
Darwin man, Darwin.
This is in Sweden. Just like the rest of Europe, notice how no one is just cruising the left lane oblivious to the traffic around them. We have the worst drivers in the world.
I visited my quad injured friend in a rehab hospital about 12 years ago. She told me almost every patient there is due to motor cycle accidents.
so far back as the cops have been quite often in the video they didn't really push him; And btw there was a helicpoter in the air, but the problem in Stockholm is that there are several tunnels with on- and offramps leading into other tunnels, so a helicopter might not know at which tunnel he will come up again
At 4:39 the music playing in the police car was from the band Sweet! The songs name is "The Ballroom Blitz" that's to funny! I use to listen to their music back in the late 70's. Great song!!!!

The idiot should not have tried to run. He should have taken the punishment of breaking the law. He would have gotten a lousy ticket, so what. Instead he tried to run. HIS decision, NOT the cop's. (Excellent driving, by the way!)
Police asked him to stop and he didnt - the responsibility for the riders death is with the rider.
Yeah and by chasing him, you’re killing him. Nothing good comes out of chasing a rider like this except DEATH. Completely reckless from the police.
@@ChristopherGuilday Well... unlike what you see on TV, cars have NO CHANCE to keep up with any motorbike, unless it is a dirt bike. The person on the motorcycle decided this, not the cops. If you are stupid enough to try to ride away from the cops, at least let the passneger off the vehicle. If you then take your own life by reckless driving... so be it.
@@ChristopherGuildaystop and you don't die 👍
This video might as well be called, "1 hour of dangerous driving by the police."
Yep, the cops were putting everyone in danger, all so they can play chase. The motorcycle rider was guilty of a traffic infraction, and the cops made him pay for it with his life. That's how cops are everywhere, bullies of the state.
That's what I thought.. a few really dangerous maneuvers by the police
I remember reading about this in the newspapers. Apparently they tried to sue the police for wrongdoing chasing at these speeds. I think they put a new policy in place to limit the speed of chases after this happened. iirc the girl was just like 16 or 17
This didn't even look like a real chase to me. Just a dumb, predictable accident.
Legally yes, they would be termed a passenger, I guess. but in my country (Australia), the passenger on a bike is called a pillion. Glad you found it in a dictionary. I have had the unfortunate misfortune to come across 3 fatal bike accidents over the years. I've raced, and spent a lot of time riding, sports, touring and racing, I love bikes and the lifestyle. Words may be different for different countries, but keep safe ride aware.
Pillion here in UK too Mate
Pillion on the back Pillock driving.
Well in my country there called passengers.We had a war to rid are selfs of the limely lap dogs and to speak how we wanted to speak!
10 Years old and it pops up on my screen now !
If I was the passenger I'd be panicking and banging on his back to stop
Me too!
Dang, they have a lot of roundabouts over there. You see very few of them where I live in Texas. Especially not on a highway. I see people on motorcycles do some crazy stuff. I try to always look out for them.
Yes, we like our roundabouts 😁
Lesson in life, your life isnt worth a couple of fines. Do the right thing and enjoy life with your friends and family. I love bikes and cars, but this isnt the way to go to.
This is why in my state, police is not supposed to chase you after certain number of miles if he doesn't think you have committed any serious crime like murder or dealing drug etc.
And that's why crime is getting worse. Going soft on criminal scum.
I guess that's why he didn't stop.
serious like murder and dealing drugs? Wow, I could see serious like murder and robbery or murder and burglary but murder and drug sales? I'm missing the seriousness link between those two.
