Unfortunately it is not you who decides what is “serious” enough to warrant a chase or not, it is the law enforcement and the courts. If you break a law, no matter how minor you think it is, whether it is jay walking or whatever, expect to pay the price. Otherwise, why have the law at all if law enforcement are not allowed to enforce it?

I can only imagine if the idea is planted into the public’s mind that if they feel their offense is “not that serious” that they can simply refuse to stop in order to escape the law…

@ KEN J

True about vehicles, but it doesn’t matter who ever owns the vehicle is responsible for any tickets the vehicle gets according to the courts. It would accomplish them not loaning out their vehicles to idiots, unless it can be proven the car was stolen. And the case would not be dismissed, I’ve seen many defendants try to use that statement in the courts, and unless they have solid evidence that the vehicle was stolen or a friend or the person driving it steps up to say they were operating the vehicle, they still have to pay the fine, its the same principle witht he speed camera’s doesnt matter whose driving once license plate is got that’s all taht is needed to produce the ticket. Chasing for assault ok, pan handling meh.

Actually, getting a license plate number is not sufficient because then all you can prove is that the vehicle was used in the crime, not the driver. The car could be stolen or borrowed, would sending the ticket to the owner of the car accomplish anything if either of those were the case? The owner of the car could simply plead not guilty and simply claim someone borrowed the car at the time and the case would be dismissed. Despite what people think, when someone runs from a LEO, they should be chased and apprehended if possible. Then they can decide if it’s worth it to file any charges or not. But you can’t just let people go, it’ll set a really bad example and lead to pretty bad consequences.

@ Ken J

Its a little bit different when a speeder is involved, and even still some speeders can out run the law with some of these wanna be Failed & Flatulent cars now a days, plus the infamous camera has the license plate number recorded also so they can still be charged later. I think the rule is if u can out run the cop then they can’t detain/charge you with anything. Of course there would be an ABP out on Superman, but if he was smart all he would have to do is change clothes when he got the chance too, depended on if batman would turn into RATman also. LOL yeh it was corny but meh.

Actually, they chased him down for fleeing, not for the pan handling. But I guess they should just let everyone run away to escape getting charged for anything, who will want to actually stop for a ticket? Just flee and the cop should be like “eh, he was just speeding, not worth chasing.”

And him punching a female officer IS funny, it’s funny that he didn’t knock her out, what a freakin wuss! And he calls himself superman, lol. And I wonder if anyone has any clue how hard it is to hand-cuff someone who is resisting, but it is funny it took so many, I would have just tased him and called it a day…

Sorry but I burst out laughing when i read that he decked that female officer LOL, and then took seven officers to bring him down. ROFL-copter, didn’t realize pan handling was a serious enough offense to chase some one down for in NYC. LOL.

I always love it when people decide not to cooperate with police and they turn what could have been just a warning or routine check into a serious jail or even prison sentence and a permanent record… SMART

S-M-A-T, They are so smart…

@ The Big Dentist

Hilarious.

I was also hoping that they have some footage of Superman’s “epic” fight against the cops. That’s pure gold.

@Nowhereman

Why “New York brain”?… why couldn’t it be just the brains of those cops pictured above? Not everybody in New York acts and/or behaves the same way. Yes people are more aggressive in New York City but not everybody is the same.
