HoCo PD vs Volvo Window

Biggfoot44 · Jan 13, 2019

Once upon a decade , knew an MPD Ofc who used a Buck 110 to slash tire on a Corvette to prevent it from being a getaway car . He reported catching more flak for that, than if he'd just shot the guy.

But indeed, new safety technologies like improved glass and glass treatments will mess with simple default methods to imobilize and extract from vehicles .

Just spitballing , but a variation on a Boot ? Clamp on , but without key locking, and designed so that can be applied safely from far enough away from vehicle to not get struck by vehicle .

While not easy to carry around with you, just smash the ceramic part of a spark plug with a hammer. Throw it at a car window. Voila. Window shattered.

A 2oz pyramid sinker with a couple feet of string would work great too.

If they thought enough about the possibility of the person fleeing to deploy spike strips... a patrol car in front and back of the vehicle should NOT have been an afterthought... unless in HoCo you get your pee pee smacked for scratching a cruiser. Just sayin'... not bashing.

Again, this is something that works against tempered glass, but the laminate will prevent it from falling apart.

Anybody know what she did to initially get stopped?

She pulled in to Daniel's, turned around and then stopped at the exit. Didn't get out of the car and wouldn't move, blocking traffic trying to leave their back parking lot.

Psycho broad.

Why didn’t they try different window?

Also saw a new net thing that can be deployed from a vehicle to snare a wheel and attach to the deploying car? It’s new so don’t expect it to be in the field yet. Downside is if they go over the cliff both cars do.

Nope, that was a banana. Close enough though. Same result

I think you're in the ballpark of the problem. Not so much that they were specifically worried about damaging a cruiser but just a general mindset of whatever you do decisive, it's going to get you in trouble, and no one will have your back. So people make weak decisions, because that's what their weak chief wants of them, and voila we see the results. It was just very fortunate nobody got hurt this time.

I would like to think that had there been a child who needed out of that car that their efforts might not have been so anemic but I'm not so sure.

Too bad it was a Toyota Venza

A what?

Reminds me of the Seinfeld bit. An Integrity? No, an Integra. Well I hope it's not a Lemona or you'll be hearing from my Lawya.

L T D, it's a Limited Edition. But they sell a million of those things. Yeah, limited to how many we can sell.

I’m 99% sure that’s a Toyota Venza and not a Volvo. Pretty crazy, she must of had something illegal on her that she refused to comply. I’m no expert but they left too much room if the car was truly boxed in they wouldn’t be able to accelerate enough to move the other cars out of the way.

We cannot box cars in. We can “block traffic” and hope for the best, which is what it appears to have happened. Shitty policy only leaves half measures.

As far as the window, I would guess they didn’t want to spray her with glass. It looked like she wasn’t swinging for the fence.
