Starting a chase

[WyX]

Hey, I don't know if there is already discussion about this but at least I can't find it, so...

I have thinked about a case when you're driving as a cop. Let's think about a situation when you're as a cop in somewhere still and lasering other drivers. Then suddenly someone comes and drives really fast, like over 200kmh. What do you do? - Press first !laser -button and then !chase -button, right ?

Okay. Now the suspect realize immediately that he/she needs to stop or try to getaway. He/she decides to keep going with full speed and police starts a chase with speed 0 kmh. Well, the distance between suspect and police will be a quite huge from the start and police may lost suspect easily.

So now what I've thinked;
In my opinion it should be allowed just to do !laser and go after suspect without using !chase at start. Of course police should use sirens and lights but now the suspect can't know for sure if the police is after him and maybe doesn't continue driving with full speed. There is also a possibility that suspect didn't even saw or notice police. Things like that may happen in real life too - you won't get a notification to your screen (window) immediately if cop is after you - you need to see or hear the police behind you. So, now the cop may have easier possibility to get a sight to the suspect and then press the !chase button. And now the suspect knows that the police is after him and suspect can decide either stop or try to getaway.

All in all, when driving over speedlimits and you pass a cop - cop can decide to use !chase button at start or to try reach suspect first before using !chase.
