This looks like a chase which is expressly prohibited for traffic or mechanical violations because of the danger and risk of death. What do you say Peter Newsham?

MPD currently receives over $13 million to police and criminalize our youth in schools! Less than half of this budget could ensure 80 schools received additional clinicians instead. Black youth deserve healing and community care, not policing. #PoliceFreeSchools

...and we KNOW more police do not make us safer in our communities. The same goes for our schools. If police made us safer, DC would be one of the safest cities in America because we have the highest police per capita of any U.S. city #PoliceFreeSchools
