And they also have been known to call off chases when the threat to life has been too great to warrant further endangerment to the public..... including the suspect (innocent until proven guilty). Barring a murder warrant, deadly force is not used in pursuits unless the lives of officers are in imminent danger. The officer knew the outcome of his decision before he pulled directly in the path of the motorcyclist, its just lucky the guy had dumb luck and was alright. Wish we knew what he did though....
