Default Re: What does it take to outrun the fuzz?

Start off safe and work your way up. Next time you're spotted by a cop on the other side of a divided highway, haul ass and turn onto some side roads. If at any point the cop gets close enough for you to actually see him in your rearview mirror, you can pull over and probably not even get busted for trying to evade. This is pretty easy to pull off if you're smart about it, and it feels great.

The only other time I legitimately ran from a cop was in a car and on a road that could sustain 160, and I'm pretty sure I had been clocked around 120. That was not as much fun, because I knew I would be screwed if I was caught. Running from a cop that you don't have a huge head start on, and when you can't play off like you never saw him will almost always be a bad idea.

In either case, don't go out looking for a chase, just be aware of what kind of situations give you a good chance, and whenever you end up in one of those situations, go for it.
