Sussex Police tactical contact during pursuit photos - Quattro10V - 2016-03-31 13:08
For anyone interested, I grabbed some photos of a pursuit that happened not too far from me. Was interesting chatting to the officer.

Original call was an assault, then nicked a vehicle - pursuit went on with 2 unmarked units, 2 marked traffic cars, helicopter and 4 response vehicles. Suspect was pepper sprayed and then detained. Reportedly punched a bus driver before running off.

Im just laughing at the BMW, Small dent, yet they call a tow truck.
Looks drivable to me

Agree with you here Toni, lol. I think the bonnet was the problem though

What camera do you use Quattro? Those are some really nice HQ pictures.

I use a Canon 60D with a 70-200 F/4L USM lens
The bonnet is designed to pop up after a collision I believe - not sure why but it has these cool hinges!
The police made contact with the vehicle which would be considered a polac (police accident) and therefore unless the damage is with a bulb, they have to get a tow truck. The vehicle will be repaired and then back in service soon.

Well, if the bonnet has that kind of system, and they cannot close it, then it's obvious they can't drive it safely, hence the tow truck.
RE: Sussex Police tactical contact during pursuit photos - Quattro10V - 2016-04-02 14:02
Roba is right! If there's more than bulb damage and in this case yes, as the bonnet cannot close, it needs to be taken for recovery.
