They implemented a speed limit for cops in Holland
 

A speed limit for cops during chases :1orglaugh

What's the limit? ;-P

Maximally 20 kmph above the normal speed limit in cities and on provincial roads, maximally 40 kmph above the speed limit on highways.

haha I love it!

Wonder if it will work?

it's not really weird considering they'd only go after stolen rides n stuff and that's just not worth it.. otherwise the license plate is enough and then no chasing needed.

Stupid, what if they are chasing someone dangerous who just stole a car for example?

You're saying going after a bankrobber or murderer in a stolen car is just not worth it? :eek7

im pretty sure that if there is murder involved, they won't use the speed limit rule.

Yeah, true, they'd probably make an exception for that.

Wait - won't this mean nobody will be able to loose their license?

license plates? ;-)

There are no specific exceptions. If a cop exceeds the cop speed limit in pursuit, he has to justify it afterwards or face punishment. The problem with this is that it discourages cops from focusing on doing their jobs, and it implies that they aren't able to judge situations themselves.

Yes, but you need to follow them and do speed checks over a distance - if the car is driving fast (over 20km over speed limit) you can't follow or check speed.

Ah that's true indeed ;-) But they'll probably figure something out. Speeding tickets are a money machine after all.

I'm still pretty sure that they will ignore speed limits when murder n stuff is involved though ;-)

They have a "speed limit" on cops in lots of places in the US. If their speed and/or the speed increase of the offender (because of the chase) increases risk to the general public, they have to abandon the chase.

I think I know where osama is hiding.. with his ferrari.

i think that is a pretty good idea. most high speed chases end with alot of collateral damage to civilians.

besides, why chase with cars when you can just call in the ghetto bird?

who the fuck is going to regulate how fast the cops actually go? they are the authority after all...

It will be proberly be for stupid things.,..Of course they will chase a murderer

yeah right. what is next... a special police unit enforcing this new rule? lol

:1orglaugh thats a fucking joke, 40kmph over is nothing.....

if you go through a stop sign or something and they didn't catch your plate, better just floor it, that's the way to do it in holland now it looks like

hahaah that's cool

yea its very fucking funny haha...
