It appears the Troopers were wrong on this one. Thankfully no innocent people got killed . The stats tell us high speed chases often don't turn out well---for other innocent drivers.  Troopers should have stopped the chase , kept a safe distance behind , and blocked the road ahead .   There is zero doubt the person driving the stolen pickup was 100 percent wrong.  But the Troopers were wrong to put so many innocent lives at risk just to get their man. Chasing this guy for 40 miles and no innocent people got hurt or killed ?  That was a miracle .
