Default Boredom is...

Watching the cops chase an E36 sedan on LA freeways over the past hour...




Unlike many LA car chases, it ended without the pit manuver (which tends to be the most exciting part).

Oh ya, I only saw the end though, were they had gotten I think it was the two people from the car

Was it exciting at all? High speeds? Close calls?

judging by where the passenger side headlight is pointing, and the fact that it looks like the fender on the passenger side is crumpled, it wouldve been more fun to watch them do a pit maneuver

Yeah- when he finally stopped, it did look like the right front had sustained some damage. That section of the bumper was jacked up, too. Not sure if it happened as part of the chase or if it was like that prior to it.

Some of the most entertaining chases are the ones where the perps actually have some driving skills- I once watched a chase where they must have pitted this guy five times and every time he was able to overcome it and continue on. I just hate to see when idiots blast through intersections on red lights at high speed and take out one or more innocent people...
