    2 TV News Choppers collide during car chase in Phoenix

    Did anyone else hear about this? This is sooo sad - I can easily see this happening again especially in a big car chase market like LA - RIP - Here's a few links...

                  WOW thats definitely a crazy and unfortunate accident. There are so many car chases these days, it was bound to happen.

                      No doubt the people that caused the chase in the first place will be charge with 4 counts of manslaughter. I don't get why people run? If you live in a big city you WILL be followed by at least 1 helicopter. There is no escape. Why try? Why get additional charged added? Can someone show me even ONE case in which a car was being followed by police and news helicopters and got away? There isn't one.

                              I think it is two things maybe - 1) they either want the attention and street cred running and knowing they inevitable - or - 2) they have nothing to lose and will do anything to keep from going back to jail again.

                                              I don't feel bad for them. They knew the risks. You can't have multiple aircraft flying around chasing cars and not have shit like that happen.

                                              The FAA should actually be sued for letting these aircraft be wived from normal traffic rules. They only need one aircraft in the area and the images can be rebroadcast.

                                              Fuck them all. I feel bad for golfers that couldn't play through.

                                                  Which was a greater danger to public safety: one idiot car driver evading a police stop, or a bunch of helicopters darting around near the chase?

                                                      I said MANSLUGHTER not murder. Try reading up on the definition and come back to me.

Can someone show me even ONE case in which a car was being followed by police and news helicopters and got away? There isn't one.

If a cop dies during a car chase because he had to speed.. then yes.. But this accident was caused by 2 news helicopters competing for ratings and getting in each others way...

                                                                                                                              Seems pretty insane to me. Not sure how the driver caused the helicopters to collide, unless of course he was driving hairy potters flying car...
