And assume that there is another Police vehicle up the road who can deploy a stinger or otherwise intervene for the radio caller. Call as much as you want on VKI, if there is no one else around to help you out at that moment, you're it. Chases are over in the space of a couple of minutes, not the hour long escapades you've been watching on the news.
