Well, I am sure there will be more in the investigation to follow. Some good debate here, some not so, but I can tell you, you will be pursued in IN if you turn away from a check point. Given the road and the time of day, and the fact it is very easy to get to 140 in a XF, I am sure that pursuit wasn't a long drawn out one. That was a Dodge cruiser into the pole btw. Not a Crown Vic. They are more than capable of keeping up. We had a similar one like this some time ago. The guy called his wife during the pursuit, stress in the marriage and all, and committed suicide by turning into the path of an oncoming truck. You just never know today...he certainly made the wrong decision. I made a few high speed runs late last night...140 isn't anything in these cars modded a little...I won't mention the top speed...
