I'm not real comfortable with cops pulling up behind me at a traffic light either, but I have to say, that guy's reaction was a little over the top. |

I think we need to dump a lot of federal monies into the R&D of the Portal gun, it seems it would be invaluable in situations like this. |

That's pretty much what I was thinking - one below, one above - WINNING. |

Actually - considering their forward momentum - a fun one might be portal below, and then one on the side of a sky-scraper, assuming your chase is in an urban area. The more advanced officers will have the wherewithal to get out another portal on the ground right before the falling car hits, and really catapult the sucker. |

Thank you for your participation in this science experiment. My hypothesis was validated.

I was going to stop a young fellow on a Ducati, one night. He'd been racing all over town for several weeks, riding hazardously, and nearly causing several wrecks. The sheriff's department had been trying to catch him for weeks, and he always ran. I pulled up behind him one night, and sure enough, he hammered down and took off like a shot. I thought, Well, alrighty then... The thing I didn't want to do, was go to an MVA, and watch the paramedics scrape the remains of a teenager off of the pavement... I've already been to two of those, and they are awful beyond belief. This is a small town, and there aren't many kids riding around on Ducatis, so on my time off, I went riding around on my motorcycle and let a bunch of biker buddies know that I was looking for a Ducati, and that I would pay nearly ANYTHING to have one. Finally, someone told me about someone who had a Ducati, and I asked where he lived. A few nights later, I was back on duty again, and Ducati-boy blew past me doing 100+mph. I didn't bother chasing him. I circled around and parked just around the corner from his house with my windows down. As soon as he turned the corner to pull into his parents' driveway, I pulled in behind him and activated my lights, which of course, brought his old man out of the house. The old man and I had a very cordial chat, with the boy standing by, looking down at the ground. We never had anymore problem with Ducati-boy, and I was a legend for a few days. (And maybe someday, this boy will become a man and look back, and realize that I did him a huge favor, and maybe kept him alive.)

Frank: That's an awesome story. Must've been a very unusual ducati for him to be riding it home, typically you have to push them back. |

It was an awesome bike, but they are usually only good for one thing: Getting teens and young twenty-somethings killed. |

Thanks. My chat with his father was very cordial and I just voiced my concern for the boy's safety, because when his old man came out of the house, I could tell by his demeanor that he would definitely take care of business.

My Dad has/had 3 old vintage Ducati Scramblers that he offered to me if I wanted to try to get one working version out of the bunch. I thought about going for it, but after lots of research and talking to old vintage Ducati guys, I was urged to only do this if I really loved Ducatis, and was willing to periodically walk them home. I was told to hold on for something else if I wanted a reliable motorcycle to actually ride around on. That said - I do like their newer (2000+) naked bike designs. They're aesthetically very pleasing to my eye - but still not a bike I want to own. |
