High speed police chases invariably lead to the death of an innocent person. Chasing a stolen car at high speed is not the right way to apprehend these car thieves.

There was an incident here a few years ago when some youths stole a car and went 'joyriding'. The police put up a roadblock, the 'joyriders' saw it, did a U- turn (or a handbrake turn; not sure) and wiped out a family of four.

When I was working in a hotel in Hendon in 1968 an old Irish chambermaid was killed by a speeding police car. At her funeral there were the 2 policemen and myself (and I only went cos the manager gave us time off to go, no one else bothered.) The police were very apologetic, but Sugar happens!
