“Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Your normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop-heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow.”
-Raul Duke
This video is kind of grainy but it’s worth watching if you’re the type of person who might be inclined to cheer at the sight of a cyclist narrowly escaping the cops by shooting a gap between two two eighteen wheelers.
Editor’s Note:
Apparently this is too good to be true after all. A reader just tipped me off that this is actually a professional video created as a marketing promo by the folks at Specialized.
I’m going to leave it up because it’s still a really cool stunt, but for the sake of journalistic integrity, here is a link to the actual commercial. http://www.specialized.com/bc/microsite/movies/

That is an ad for Specialized.
