The public is safer with the bad guys getting away for a day or two while the cops search for the offender.
Would you be singing the same tough tune if a family member got killed because of a chase started over a stolen vehicle?
Manditory minimum sentances are never the answer. Those systems end up with a guy having a bunch of child porn images getting multiple life sentances while an actual child molester gets a few years.

But how many times has a child molester, murderer, rapist gotten away because laws kept cops from apprehending the criminal? Reanna nailed it on the head with:

There's no way to measure the damage caused by these people who are allowed to go on with their crimes.

It is truly unfortunate that some innocent people die in the process of Law Enforcement doing their job. If one of my family members was killed as a result of the car chase, but it nabbed a criminal at the same time, I would be very upset yet still have respect for the police doing their job. I am not going to criminalize the police because bad things DO happen when dealing with bad people. It's life.
