Wikipedia
Car chase

A car chase is the vehicular hot pursuit of suspects by law enforcers. The rise of the automotive industry in the 20th century increased car ownership, leading to a growing number of criminals attempting to evade police in their own vehicle or a stolen car. Car chases are rarely captured on film and broadcast due to the low number of video footage recorded by police cars and police and media helicopters participating in the chase. In the US they are a popular subject with media and audiences due to their intensity and drama and the innate danger of high-speed driving.
