The cop should not endanger his life or the life of other drivers on the road just to replay a scene for The Dukes of Hazard.

I am sort of glad the cop did the right thing by keeping his/her cool, and didn't get all "Mel Gibson" crazy eyed. Give the cop some credit for doing the right thing.

If he had gotten in a wreck, or killed someone driving uphill, people would be upset at the cost of life and material dollar cost, plus lawsuits.

So give the cop some love for being mature.

Don't worry people, the burglars know their days are numbered.

I have a suspicion, from watching kids play "capture the flag" and "game of Tag" that the burglars know there is only 1 cop car. so they intentionally split up in opposite directions, to improve their odds of escape.

I also have a feeling they don't live in the places they went to. That is prob their hide-away spot, probably a dirt area or an abandoned vacation rental they parked on the driveway or barn.

This is a common trick DUI drivers do, when they are close to a sobriety check point. drive up to a stranger's driveway and wait it out…
