      But with a buttload of cops ready to make arrest and also spike trap, so it’s really just 3 stars for the rest of the world but 1 star for US.

    That was actually impressive. So smooth, so professional, no escalation.

      It only work in a society where people arent expecting to get killed by the cops. In the US its reasonable to fear for your life during any arrest, so people tend to panic and run. In this case the potential danger of trying to run is just so much higher than getting arrested.

        Also in a society where guns don’t outnumber people.

        In the US, cops are afraid to be killed by people too. Or love pretending to face tough criminals (and their dogs, apparently.) That’s why SWATting is so overpowering.

    bro stopped instantly. Why did the cops think he was gonna run? I feel like this was just an excuse for that one cop to play with the spike strip

      Probably a once in a lifetime opportunity to use that thing, so any excuse will do.

    No signal before the spike strip? They must have been very worried about flight. Good de-escalation in that case.

    The very calm arrest is either overkill or great police work, defusing flight risk enough that the suspect stops resisting. Must be annoying for officers that it’s hard to tell which from the outside.

    I’m pretty sure the police gonna tackle someone running down the street but alas, he’s just there to deploy spike for the escaping Nissan driving at 20kmph.

    Based on the title, I was expecting another cop car to come flying in to the suspect’s car out of nowhere at mach 3.
