Week or so ago Micky was talking about how to flip a car back on its
wheels. Last night on Live PD Crime of the Week I saw a better one.

Police in OK were chasing a pickup truck with two people in it. It was
a long chase, about a halt hour when finally one of the cops did a PIT
maneuver to stop the truck. Well, the truck rolled over a full 360,
landed on its wheels and the driver kept going. He was stopped on a
second PIT

The flip is about 1 minute in

Yeah, that makes the one I came across look like nothing. (Well there
might have been ambulances before I got there.)

I'm afraid to flip my car, especially when the top is down. Afraid I'll
get a haircut.

Yeah, that's why some have roll bars.


For anyone not familiar:
The PIT maneuver (pursuit intervention technique), or TVI (tactical
vehicle intervention) is a pursuit tactic by which a pursuing car can
force a fleeing car to turn sideways abruptly, causing the driver to
lose control and stop
