Los Angeles, for at least the last decade, has been known as the car chase capital of the world. In reading the News and Freep the last few days, all I see is stories about police chases in the metro Detroit area -- two, today alone.
Perhaps the only thing inhibiting Detroit police chase publicity is that the news gatherers in LA have many more helicopters than Detroit.
