    Yes, but not through fault. I disagree with the notion that it’s a problem for police to attempt to pursue someone driving recklessly as their risk of collision already exists without police involvement.

    There’s a big difference between using a pit maneuver to force a collision and following a person and them losing control of their own vehicle while fleeing.

      If i were to chase someone down on the roads, whether they’re driving recklessly or not, and that person crashed as a result of my pursuit i would be held liable.
