True that. Speaking of friends, I happened upon the accident scene of the first one. I witnessed the car flipped upside down lying in the grass shoulder off the street. I didn't find out until the next day that the motorist running from the cops had hit my friend and she she had been taken to the hospital.

This. All it takes is being in the wrong place at the wrong time and you can easily find yourself in the middle of a high speed cop chase gone wrong.
