A police car chasing you would be at a constant distance from you. If it was moving away, the siren sound would get lower and lower, instead of remaining at the same pitch.

You were run over by a vehicle while trying to apprehend shoplifters the police didn't ask for their insurance How can you find out their insurance carrier you have all of their info from the police.?

This situation should be covered under your Employers Insurance. Not the auto policy of the unsuspecting driver that you apparently ran in front of while chasing someone. It's not that drivers fault that your business was shoplifted nor that you were chasing this guy, which is probably against your own employers rules. If you were chasing a Shoplifter, I doubt very seriously that you could ever establish the vehicle driver was at fault or responsible in any way. The police would not have taken their insurance information because the police did not consider them at fault. The Shoplifter was obviously at fault. But if your an ambulance chaser or otherwise not perturbed by fraudulent and unscroupulous insurance claims, then I guess you could persue that poor driver and file a suit.


Can you join the us police force with a metal rod and two screws in your leg?

In most police agencies, the question wouldn't be whether you had metal parts in your leg as much as whether you could perform the physical tests required of police officer candidates. These usually include running a distance in a minimum time, climbing over a six-foot wall, and other tasks demonstrating agility, coordination and strength.


Why can you only be pulled over by a police officer for a moving violation and a registration or equipment violation?

If a police officer suspects that, as you sit in your stationary vehicle, you could be under the influence of alcohol (smells alcohol as the police officer walks past your car) or drugs (due to your strange behaviour and glassy eyes), he or she can investigate further.
