CNN Reports that the actual driver of the "other" vehicle was the Grandmother of the family, and she is indeed injured and has been taken to the hospital.

Wow, now that is amazing footage. They tried to sandwich him about 3-4 times with the SUV and pickup truck. Just zipped in and out like it was another day in the office.

The sad thing is, I hear the whole thing started with the driver being engraged because he couldn't get reliable bluetooth pairing with his Motorola V71.


Now, when are one of the Photoshop gurus going to composite an E90Post sticker onto his car in one of those screenies?

Interesting Segue.

NOT RELATED: After reporting on the chase again. CNN reported that some guy got arrested for burying his BMW. He was going to report it stolen, and collect the insurance money.

Strange.

Some pretty decent moves. It's amazing to see a bird's eye view of the cars nimbleness.

Unfortunately trying that in Germany means they will most likely pull out the big guns (Porsche 911's, etc) and then you definately aren't getting away.

Does anyone know what the story behind it all was? Did he steal the car (but then how would that be possible without the key or some very fancy equipment)? Or was he just speeding a refused to pull over?? Or something else?
