A high-speed, high-risk police chase over a nothing violation like this is an obscenity. I will never understand why people are willing to put up with it — why police aren’t fired, prosecuted, and jailed.

Do you think a car is worth the death of another person ? I don’t.
Since the car is tracked on a map. You can follow them without causing a high speed pursuit. If you can’t then let them go.
How are you going to arrest them? Like they always do with handcuffs.
You keep trying to state something I never said. When did I say the cops should avoid them? I said they don’t need a high speed pursuit.
I was a cop for many years. We don’t do high speed pursuits except in grave situations. We normally used a helicopter to track the car and waited until they stopped, ran out of gas or contain them in a safe area.
It’s not that complicated.
The car is NOT tracked on a map. That’s not how GPS works.
GPSes work by calculating their position from three satellites. They don’t share that position unless they’re using Google or Apple maps, and to get that data even with a warrant, you need to know their Google/Apple ID. Which you don’t have in a situation like this.
. I can pull my Tesla up on a map and my Audi as well.
If you don’t understand how something works. Don’t pretend you do. Both my cars transmit their location. It’s an anti-theft device and most modern cars do this.
You don’t need a warrant if the owner consents.

Bold of you to assume the vehicle in question was a state of the art car with this stuff coming as standard.
Not everyone is as rich as you.
My car from 2008 had the feature as well. It’s nothing new.
Some cars had low jack which isn’t near as good.
Hell my car from 2000 had the feature as well.
It’s more prevalent on new cars but it’s old tech. It gives you a nice discount on your insurance
