What would you do in this case? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHjjF55M8JQ
Not enough information but it appears pretty drastic and I am sure the motorcycle rider would know if why it went down as it did.

Since there is a fully marked patrol car also I would say he knew what was going on.
Ok, well next time I will not accuse someone of impersonating a police officer until they walk up to my window and put to a gun to my head. I am sure at that point I will have the best reaction time and do some crazy stuff from all those kung fu movies. Probably launch and start drifting around corners too.
All that joking aside, seriously, this might have been the start of a crime, just because he didn't pull through with it, doesn't mean he didn't have the intentions.
I never said they were magic cars, I said that they probably don't have the fuel cut off switch in the trunk. The fuel shut off switch is easily tripped. If an officer has to cross an interstate median, it would most likely trip the switch. The switch in my mother's car was tripped from hitting a pothole too fast.
The P71's do have a different ECM then the standard Crowns.
www.crownvic.net has more information then what anyone needs to know about these cars.
Situations like this happen all the time and is exactly why all patrol cars should be required to be marked. LE should not pull people over for traffic violations in unmarked cars period, ever. I for one will not pull over for an unmarked car..
I have seen an unmarked silver Dodge Magnum with cars pulled over several times between Seattle and Federal Way.
No antennae, no WSP-XXX license plate. Nothing marked.
As techno said earlier, this guy might be getting the jollies and doing this over and over. How jolly? The guy posted it on facebook with good details a day before this happened to me. Yup, he "pulled over" some other guy and posted it on facebook laughing about it. I'm meeting with a seatac officer tomorrow or so and giving them the screenshot of the facebook comments and name and address of where the idiot lives. *yes, I actually now know where he lives*.
