CANBERRA

He was on Meth.

Police chase man going 100km/h on e-scooter after he crashes | Heart-pounding footage shows the moment an Australian man going 100km/h on an e-scooter leads police on a chase from the highway to a bike path where he narrowly avoids cyclists. James Cole, 38, was spotted by police going at high speed along Majura Parkway in Canberra's east on December 23 last year. When two officers on motorbikes try to pull him over, bodycam footage shows Cole refusing to stop and hitting the throttle in an attempt to evade them. The clip, played recently to the ACT Magistrates Court. shows Cole turning off the road and onto a bike path where cyclists dismount to avoid a collision as they hear the engines approaching. When the officers do manage to apprehend Cole after he tumbles off the e-scooter following a nearly five-minute-long chase, he pleads with them that he is late for work.

It’s a National problem.
Those cops did a excellent job.

I wish we had a political leader prepared to declare war on drugs!

People make such poor decisions on drugs.
How was he ever going to get away from 2 motorcycle cops?

You'll get over it - like most - too late.

Just like escaping from the Daleks in Doctor Who?

Unfortunately, they turned out to be smarter than that.

Good job with the safety gear though. She definitely won't get run over by a forklift.

Most e scooters are limited to a max of about 25K. it should be illegal to sell this e scooter in Australia.

The limit should be about 18K.

Following the US with Nixon - not forgetting the assistance of special agent Elvis Presley -

... every American President and Australian Prime Minister has "fought the war on drugs"

DESPITE the fact, it has NEVER WORKED
