This CRIMINAL was the first person to "initiate proceedings which were likely to cause serious threat of injury to innocent people." He skidded through a light, which means that he was either (a) driving too fast or (b) not paying attention. Both of these when driving a 1500 lb piece of death metal are a bad thing, and the police officer was in the right to stop him and let him know that he was doing something that could hurt people, and penalize him. This ideally prevents him from doing it again, and keeps .. US SAFER. Should he not do this because a scumbag criminal decides he doesn't want to handle the responsibility for driving recklessly and tries to get away? No.
HIS CHOICE TO RUN caused the accident, not the police's choice to pursue.
