In Newark what the local Amish used to do was back into the front of the police cars setting off the air bags.

I remember that; Sharpe James wouldn’t let them film “New Jersey Drive” (the movie about stolen cars in Newark) in the city, so they filmed it in Brooklyn IIRC.

I suppose the “civilian” driver got a ticket for obstructing justice.

As I recall if you rear-end another car you are at fault. Here in Ohio it is called ‘assured clear following distance’ violation.

I had an accident like that once, I got a ticket for following too closely.

“The newly formed Strategic Response Group responds to major incidents and terror attacks.”

I’ll bet New Yorkers feel safe about this elite group. s/

That means the vehicles they wrecked were probably expensive.

Am I the only one who had the word “Keystone” pop into their mind when reading this story?
