Criminals often make irrational decisions to flee during traffic stops, which ultimately leads to their capture; these decisions are frequently based on poor judgment rather than strategic thinking, and the initial small mistakes that led to the traffic stop compound with the decision to flee, resulting in additional charges and more severe legal consequences.

2 Criminals Make The Dumbest Decision To Run
Added:Continuing to the intersection. Looks like he's pulling over now.
>> I can't see in the back. An officer pulls over a Suburban for a cracked windshield, but what happened next? He didn't expect. The woman gives the officer a fake name, but before he can even confront her, she takes off. And that's not the only suspect that had the same idea today.
>> She's running.
West 59.
She's got multiple warrants.
The driver has multiple warrants and a suspended license, so she wasn't going to be let off with a ticket to begin with. But how this ends, she definitely wasn't expecting. And that's not the only chase we'll see today.
on your high blew the light at Elizabeth.
>> She's running red lights and narrowly missing other cars. It's only a matter of time before she does more damage.
Unless the officer stops her in time.
something westbound approaching bogey through the OB got you clear with you guys.
>> Just when it looks like her luck has changed and it seems like she's going to get away, something unexpected happens.
Sounds like we got good info there. Looks like you got hit 392392.
Copy.
>> Do we have good info on the suspect vehicle to work for James out of Island?
Officers are barely keeping her in their sights when out of nowhere they see a light pole disappear.
Rich driver, SHOW ME YOUR HAND.
Show me your hand.
>> DRIVER, SHOW ME YOUR HAND.
>> This woman added fleeing and eluding, amongst other charges, to her long rap sheet. And if you think that was a dumb reason to run, well, this next guy ran for an even dumber reason.
>> Get out car. I'm hurt though.
>> This officer is sitting and radaring a 35 mph zone. A few vehicles are touching on being over the limit too far, but this officer is patient. He's waiting on the big fish. When out of nowhere, he radars a car going 70.
He immediately pulls out after the black Suburban, but this stop isn't going to go the way the officer thinks. What the officer didn't expect was the reason this suspect ran first. However, the officer has to stop the suspect.
>> Be 340 MacArthur with an unlicensed black Chevy Suburban.
24.
>> No plate on the car and at first it doesn't seem like the suspect is really running, but that's about to change.
>> Back for air. We'll be continuing southbound MacArthur towards downtown.
>> 48. Copy.
>> 48. Still continuing. Speeds approximately 52 mph. Light traffic 48. MacArthur purging.
Coming to a stop at a red light.
>> CS received.
>> Continuing to the intersection. All right. Looks like he's pulling over now.
Nope. He's taking off. We're going southbound on Pike. 2600 pipe. Light traffic. Speeds 45 mph.
What are you taking for?
>> He's speeding. He just ran over a curb.
He's going 70 and 35. Original reason for stop. We just uh turned westbound on West 24th. Speeds 36 mph. No traffic.
Coming across Parker. Speeds 30 mph.
Turning left on the Franklin.
Going back south on West 24. Turning right onto Division. Speed 20 mph. No traffic.
>> Out of nowhere, this suspect does the weirdest thing. He suddenly just stops.
Wait until you hear the reason he ran in the first place. I have to ask you a question about that because to me it doesn't really make sense what he did.
>> Turn around. Turn around. Put your hands behind your back. Stop right there.
Do not move. Face away from me.
Kyra, stop. Turn around.
Face away from me.
Turn around and face away from me.
48. We're 23rd in division. Turn around and face away from me. Do what I say now. Now stand up. Turn and face that way. Turn. Keep turning. Walk backward towards the sound of my voice. Walk.
Keep walking. Keep walking. Keep walking. Keep walking. Walk. Keep going until I say stop.
Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep walking. Put your hands on your head.
Now, keep walking. Keep walking. I didn't say stop.
>> Keep walking. Keep walking. I'm going to walk in past you to hold the car.
>> Keep coming. Actually, you know what?
We'll wait on the other car to get here.
Just stay right there. Hold the car.
>> No, keep your hands on your head. Just stay where you're at.
>> The officers still have to secure the scene and clear the vehicle. After that, they'll discuss him fleeing as well as his charges. But my question to you is, if you had a suspended license, would you be driving 70 in a 35 mph zone?
Criminals never make sense to me.
>> I just now face that way. Face that way.
You give me somebody.
>> All right. Now, keep walking backwards.
Walk. Walk. Anything else in the car?
>> Don't know yet, sir.
>> Keep walking. I can't see nobody got hands. All right. Keep walking. Keep walking. Keep walking. You're good, buddy. Keep going. Keep walking. Walk back. Keep walking.
>> All right, somebody stack up on this driver's >> unit 20 seconds. Do not come this way.
Stop right there. Just block traffic.
>> Anybody else in the vehicle? Come out with your hands up.
>> I don't think anybody is. Sergeant, you want to stack on me? We can take it.
I'll uh I'm going to bypass everything.
Go to the driver's side. You stop the passenger and you stop at very back.
driving >> going up.
>> No, you're coming to this side. Come with me. Like I said, I'm going to pass everything. I'm going to stop at the driver's side. He's going to be passer if you want to ple the way back.
>> Yep.
>> I can't see in the back.
>> Clear. Anybody hear that?
>> Hear what?
>> Yeah. 1064. I got >> Yeah.
>> You got a ID of him?
>> Not yet.
>> Okay.
>> Uh I was at 3700. Macar radar. He was fast. He was 70.
>> South.
>> Yeah.
>> And then we just kind of slow rolled in traffic. I didn't think he was I just thought he didn't hear me. So I flipped my sirens on.
>> Yeah.
>> And when we got to the dead >> Well, when we got the intersection at Persing, >> he pulled off like he was going to turn into Pike Plaza and then he just punched it and then that's when it took off and All right. Yep.
>> So Okay.
>> Easy peasy.
Okay. Well, let's DM him. Find out who he is.
I don't know why the heck he's running.
>> All he is is suspended. He ain't got no warrants.
>> You got his information in there.
>> Yeah, it's on the It's on Atlas on my screen.
>> And obviously the speed.
Where were his top speed once you lit him up?
>> I'd say 70 before I even lit him up. Was his top speed? I don't remember.
>> I don't know. After post lighting him up. Yeah, but him up. He continued. I mean, we were >> I guess I'm I'd say say, do you think judging from the point you initi you initiated your traffic to cuz you were you were saying speeds of 30, speeds of 20.
>> Yeah.
>> So, do you think this constitutes a misdemeanor fleeing?
>> Oh, it's going to be felony fing. By the way, he hit that curb and took off. When I said speeds 25, that was me going through an intersection after I checked.
>> Okay.
>> Yes.
>> So, he was still Oh, he was probably I mean, he was he was I I honestly can't tell you. He probably was 40 45, but >> still his 35 on pike right there.
>> Well, we'll have to obviously we'll have to just review the videos.
You can just look at it real
