Jan 12, 2021 at 17:34 | comment | added | hszmv | There is actually advice on how to do this with an unmarked car tries to pull you over. Real cops will generally be okay with you continuing on but with your hazard lights engaged, to the next well light public area. Many of these were communicated in the early-mid 90s as criminals would use slap on roof sirens to try and convince motorists to pull over. | |
