      @@justinsmith4562 if a crook goes into oncoming traffic, you bet you want red and blues following them. They stand out like a sore thumb, indicating to oncoming traffic that some hooligan doesn't care if they live or die. If there are no red and blues following, that means the police don't care if the innocent live or die. No, I want an officer like this who understands his duty and is loyal to it, rather than a bunch of uniformed bureaucrats who don't care if citizens are wantonly killed by a criminal lunatic.

      What a disappointing thing to see upvoted.
      Decreasing the safety of the road network through police chases is a legitimate issue. To strip all nuance off concept, and write it off that as ‘lawbreakers have free reign’ is not constructive. You should addressing the central premise behind ceasing police chases
      Then to top it off by simultaneously hinting at lawbreaking through vigilantism is absurd (how can others not see the double think there??)
      This shouldn’t be accepted by Australians, and it’s disappointing to see it being so popular.

      Police should be able to chase down criminals and in this case the officer was not endangering anyone's life but his own. And where I said under the current laws it can only lead to more vigilantism. I think the youth crime at the moment in Qld is proof of that.

      Also, did you watch the video? How is driving on the wrong side of a main road not endangering road users. How is driving on a footpath not endangering citizens? You can argue the risks they were mitigated, but that’s not the same thing.
      And what has youth crime got to do with vigilantism? Are the children the vigilantes are you saying?

      @@HotChook Yes I did watch the complete video. As far as being on the wrong side of the road a bike is not going to kill someone in a car at those speeds. On the footpath was no dangerous encounters. I never said children were vigilantes. I was using the current youth crime in Qld as an example. There has been a lot of vigilantism through out the state in response of the youth offenders not being punished because of the laws. As I mentioned in the original post, If crimes go unpunished it will lead to increased vigilantism.
      So what do you suggest that no chase should take place and just let them go?
      How would this solve anything?
      It would only lead to more crime as the lawbreakers no they can get away with it because the police can't give chase.

This sends a message to other criminals that Police can't chase them so do as these mugs did. Well done senior Police you just presented those on the front line with more problems.

    That has to be the scariest police chase I’ve seen. That poor cop - he has mad skills but i was holding my breath when the bus squeezed past him. It stuns me how few people use evasive driving techniques & even when they see a vehicle coming straight at them, they don’t slow down, don’t move over to create room (even when they can) & just seem to assume the other vehicle will magically miss them. I know many people must freeze & not be able to think quickly enough to check there’s no one beside them or up their a$$ so they can evade, but everyone should be constantly aware of where traffic is around them.

    I was a NSW Police trail bike squad officer for 12 years. Have had dozens of pursuits with other motorcycles on and off road. That was nothing more than a cruise. Minimal danger. These offenders allegedly threatened a Police officer and his family which I would rate as a serious offence. Compared to how we operated 20 years ago I would say that officer was extremely restrained. I have taken out numerous offenders on motorcycles and owing to the gravity of the offence taken them out on this occasion. Unfortunately most police management got to there positions because they are YES men and most have spent there career behind a desk and have a much different view on risk compared to police risking there life every day. Some comments in this section are obviously from people who are risk adverse. Cowards in other words.

This show people you don't , can't and ain't trained. To allow for such endangerment is to say pointless empowerment.
    What would of happened if someone was injured or died as a result of this laughable dangerous chase. Does that potential risk to public mean nothing to the worst police being granted allowance out of known dribble areas. Let me ask you this in Queensland. Do you have two police training academies in gold coast and sunshine coast cities. Because I am willing to say you don't. In fact the police academies like NSW not in wollongong and Newcastle both working class cities but in some pointless dribble areas. Producing dribble education , choosing dribble management from dribble areas with dribble staff .in dribble areas with dribble mayors and dribble government twits.
    Get your house in order and make two new projects for two new academies.
    The working class areas will produce better police. Having academies in actual working class areas takes away the power that idiots use in processes with police.
    Lose the nationalist tard lose the manipulate liberal groups .
    Place them in labours areas and fix them up. It is retarded to know how many morons in nationalist and liberal actually either worked in the NSW police university producing a blend of an idiot called police . The Goulburn shire is a back ward hole full of bottom feeders and political twits.
    I am certain the same exists where who ever these idiots trained what ever the hell that was in the same style.
    Ripp out the police from those areas after placing two new training facilities in gold coast and Surfers Paradise. And stump on who ever says no. They will be the lackys of this matter. Get it all out of the hands of and put it in working class hands areas not political tards who should be in jail. Get senate to review magistrate and judges contracts and find some to jail the ex political halfwits who sit on anything . Go for the throat on this matter.
    And fix the police up ,getting police from working class in working class is the first step.
    Ever time anyone says no look at them and know they are the ones who must be brought in to the justice system and charged for the crimes.

    Manoeuvre is BrE (British English) and we're still a part of the commonwealth fellas.
    Maneuver is very American. We aren't seppos here.
    "the rider throughout the chase..." Indicates that the subject of the sentence is "the rider" to add 'throughout the chase' afterwards indicates that the driver may actually change during the chase.
    You mean "Throughout the chase, the driver..."
    Good on the officer in the video, pity the higher-ups are all brass and no balls. Politicians one and all.
    Make sure you have enough minorities and trans people in your force. Because we don't care about criminality or actively policing the community, so we don't care about aptitude or ability. Just 'diversity'.
    When I read Alexandre Solzhenitsyn's "The Gulag Archipelago" it wasn't the brutality of the gulags themselves that shocked me at all, it was what happened before the first waves.
    It was when the thugs were robbing and attacking the normal citizens en masse; the police would do nothing until a citizen decided to fight back.
    It didn't matter if you fought back or not, you would still likely be murdered and your wife would be violated in front of you. But if you fought back and managed to win, then the police would arrive and send you to the gulags for attacking 'socially friendly elements'.
    The thugs themselves were protected from any punishment and most ended up running the government (sorry Gulags, I was getting confused with Australia for a second).
    I don't think people will keep putting up with this, younger generations are already getting very agitated and young men that I see and work with are becoming dangerously antisocial thanks to this literally communist style of society that we are devolving into.

    Whoa! They got away and the cop gets charged. That's a crazy twist.

    Punish a police officer for doing his job. This is insane. Pretty soon when you need police they wont attend due to getting in trouble. What kind of bureaucratic idiocy is this. Great effort by this officer. If that was me those fools would have been knocked from their moped at speed. Need more cops like this. Keep up the good work even if your superiors don't appreciate it I certainly do. Thanks for keeping us safe.

    Two up on a scooter, out run a stock DRZ400 dual sport....
    I thought they might have got knocked off/blocked by the workers on the footpath, but obviously not
