Today when Sammi and I were heading back from Auchan. we saw our first ever high speed chase taking place. while we were riding our electric bike along the bike path. a chinese man on a large black motorcycle shot past up at around 80Km/h which is probably his bikes top speed. a moment later a chinese police car pulls up along side us it has its light and siren blaring. the officers are intently focused on catching the man on the motorbike but because the police made the mistake of trying to drive on the bikepath weaving in and out of bikes their speed was nowhere near the motorcycles and the motorcycle rider escaped. by the time the police car got to the next intersection the motorcycle was long gone. but these two police officers weren't going to give up so easily so they asked the traffic police at the intersection for help. their conversation was priceless
here is an excerpt
Police Officers: excuse me did you see a man
Traffic Police: yes we have seen several men today
Police Officers: Did you see a man just now
Traffic Police: yes
Police Officers: Which way did he go
Traffic Police: which one
Police Officers: What do you mean which one
Traffic Police: we are at an main intersection we see several hundred men
Police Officers: He was riding a bike
Traffic Police: i think all the men were riding bikes
Police Officers: his was a motorbike
Traffic Police: ah yes we saw several men on motorcycles
Police Officers: a black motorcycle
Traffic Police: it's nighttime all motorcycles look black, and i am wearing sunglasses so its impossible to tell
Police Officers: it was a man riding a black motorcycle and he was going very fast
Traffic Police: oh yes we saw him
Police Officers: which way did he go
Traffic Police: That way
The two traffic police both point in different directions. one of them was even pointing a up into the air at a 35 degree angle. at this point me and sammi got bored and decided to go home. so we missed the last thing the police officers said but considering that they went off in another direction than the traffic police had pointed i figure they said something like this then gave up
Police Officer 1: What are we gonna do now? since this officer has just told us the motorcycle has taken flight i don't think they issued us the flying car today, how about just give up
Police Officer 2: sounds good to me, but now i am in a bad mood how about we pull over a BMW and give him a ticket for having 4 wheels the same size to cheer me up.
Police Officer 1: sounds good to me
