Just what IS the penalty for those who run from police at high speed?
From what I gather, it's not NEARLY stiff enough. People who run, at high speed, from the cops are endangering the public as significantly as if they discharged a firearm in public. Indeed, the penalty for high-speed evasion should be comparable to those for committing armed robbery (e.g. MANDITORY jail time).
Maybe this would give criminals a little pause before running and putting lives at risk. At the very least it would remove such blatant disregarders of life from society for a while.
