| Red Ferrari involved in police chase on Barnett Highway
BURNABY (NEWS1130) - It had all the elements of a movie scene - including a Ferrari. A Port Moody police cruiser was involved in a crash Wednesday afternoon, after what witnesses described as a police chase on the Barnett Highway in Burnaby.
Port Moody Police say an officer on duty saw a red Ferrari turn onto the highway and take off at a very high rate of speed. Police say the car was being driven erratically, weaving in and around other cars, although Constable Bill Kim won't go as far as calling it a chase. Kim says the officer did try to catch up to the Ferrari and that's when the incident took a turn for the worse. "As the officer was attempting to close the distance, from my accounts, he might have hit a patch of road-gravel causing the vehicle to turn, lost control and swerved into a minivan with a single occupant."
Kim says fortunately no one was injured in the crash. They're still looking for the Ferrari and the driver.

an officer on duty saw a red Ferrari turn onto the highway and take off at a very high rate of speed - who doesnt do that on a freaken on ramp ur supposed to accelerate, and it is a ferrari so it really does just seem like somebody having a lil fun, driving it like he stole it. i mean i would probably do it all day too if i had a ferrari

it wasn't the on ramp onto hwy 1, it was the one coming off hwy 1 onto barnett hwy i believe.
either way.. sounds like the port moody cops need more driver training lol.

The cop never had his car. Granny-shifting. Not double-clutching, like he should.

by the time there able to call in the chopper that car is long gone they have to be able to tail the car in order to tell chopper where the car is and that means keeping the car in sight that ford never stood a chance ferrari FTMFW

they aren't going to call out a helicopter for a speeder... I bet the Ferrari never even know the cop was behind him. he was just driving.
defiantly not a "police chase"
a $10 000 chopper bill to hand out a $150 speeding ticket.

They have a FLIR on it too (on both helicopters - AIR TWO as well) so if you decide to bail, they'll track you via your body heat. Quote:

If it's refueling and the cops can keep up with the car at a distance for long enough that AIR ONE can get airborne, then i'm pretty sure they'll use it. $10000 is nothing when compared to the potential lives saved from a horrific crash.
