I knew the guy... He was actually eating a whopper, talking on the cell phone, and driving with his knees!

Nice but sadly a bit too short
Anyway looking at videos like this, most of them originating from the US, i always come to think: If anyone is involved in such a pursuit and the chopper is in the air and a few police cars are also in pursuit how do they imagine they can escape. I mean yeah you probably can dodge a few police cars but once the chopper is in the air, IMHO it's all over. How can you dodge that?
If i were him at the smallest sight of the chopper i would have turned myself over.
Now i'm wondering if anyone ever escaped like that!?
