That's just insane...But it's cool how he switches cars... Cool

I've done 220KPH and it's honestly not as bad as it looks...Of course, I did it on an open stretch of highway rather than with traffic around me... Wink

Sorry mate but I've seen the Holden V8 try to go round a corner too fast, it wasn't pretty. And if the driver of said Porsche had actually been any good, then it wouldn't have had any problems outrunning said holden. Wink

The cars from the KLPD (Dutch highwaypatrol) are tuned for acceleration and cornering. The drivers get a special (circuit)training to know very well what they are doing. You need something fast and drive it very well to stay in front. I've seen these Volvos V70 corner like a racing car. That is packed full with equipment.......

Here's the comment of another version of this vid on youtube:

A 42-year old man from Purmerend, the Netherlands is caught after a bizarre chase. The man driving a Porsche 911 GT3 drove at speeds exceeding 200 km/h (125 mph) on the A7. The police gave him the stop sign from an undercover surveillance car. The Porsche, ignoring this, took a last second exit and went off. While entering the high way again, the driver lost control in the corner of the entranceway hitting the safety rails. While losing several parts from his car he tried to escape again. While being chased he took the road verge desperate to escape. He enters a parking space next to the high way and steps over to a Volkswagen Golf, driven by his 33-year old girlfriend. A 29-year old man which was the passenger at the Porsche took over the wheel from the Porsche and tries to get away. As seen in the video, while this was happening the police is taking a safe distance, observing until backup has arrived. The Golf drives away like nothing happened but the police knew he was in that car. They create a road block to hold up the traffic so they can arrest the former Porsche driver, the passenger now driving the Porsche also gets arrested.
In the Golf happens to be a baby and in the baby-seat they discovered a firearm. In the clothing of the baby hard drugs were found. Both man are still in custody.


Oh and I thought that was rather nice driving, the second time they went throught the grass. Decelerate from 110 to 20 and then make a U-turn over the grass in less than 4 seconds wthout slipping...

I have got away with it twice this week, illegally parked as I picked up a take away, came outside just as the policeman was getting out of his car. At that precice moment, two lads came around the corner on a push bike, two up and no lights. I have no idea who they are, but would like to take this opportunity to say thank you, you saved me €45 by diverting his attention. Then pulling a U turn where I should not have, there was a police car two cars behind me. Fortunately, the traffic flow was with me and against him. I saw him doing a three point turn in my rear view mirror just as I took the next side street (and the next one too). Now I am just waiting for number three to nail me............walking on the cracks in the pavement or some other capital offense.

I think that they are used for transplant organ transfer from hospital to hospital rather than "police stuff".

The car in the link above isn't actually owned by the metropolitan police; it was owned by lambo and was painted in met colours for a show. Sadly. Cry
