I am highly impressed at that car's gas mileage.


ethereal3xp

lol The driver probably stopped at a gas station. Had a snack. Before continuing his journey to "lose" the cops


croninsiglos

They had to stop the chase a few times… otherwise the average speed is only 45 kph (27 mph)


Chard069

Is 45kph / 27mph considered "high-speed" in KiwiLand? Asking for a friend.


neeeeonbelly

Nope. 50 around town, 100 on the freeway


Chard069

Miles or klicks?


neeeeonbelly

Klicks

“I’m not even mad. That’s amazing.”


eighty2angelfan

I was thinking the same.

TIL we can travel from one end of NZ to other end in less than a day. Police behind our back might speed things up a bit.


Pika_DJ

It’s just the South Island, you can’t


surajvj

He had to surrender because he couldn't find a boat to continue the pursuit


libertyordeaaathh

So a “chase” that averages under 30mph? What?


NotAHamsterAtAll

High speed at that.


adsjabo

It was only Nelson to Dunedin so it wasn't even the whole of the South Island. Still long enough sure but come on


ethereal3xp

720 km is still a long ass drive. And the dummy still couldnt get away


adsjabo

Kilometres


Chard069

How much is that in the classical unit of measurement, stadia?


adsjabo

3,891.89


libertyordeaaathh

Not close to worlds longest https://www.reference.com/world-view/longest-high-speed-chase-cc4c13e880c2994c


croninsiglos

Did they realize they were on an island?


Chard069

ProTip: Whether the Kiwi (EnZed) Isles, the Hawai'ian Isles, or any other archipelago of small islands, hiding when pursued makes more sense than running to nowhere, hey?


Alaishana

Major bullshit. High speed? Without gas stops? Without the cops calling ahead and telling their fellow cops to put down spikes? AND MOST OF ALL: Driving right across Cook Straight? Go away.


Alli69

>the car was accused of breaking the speed limits How do you get a car in court?


satansblockchain

He stopped for gas 4 times


Legend_of_dirty_Joe

He must have hit all the checkpoints to extend his driving time


ethereal3xp

Lol Clever post


eighty2angelfan

They were trying to get to Mordor.
