The roads are winding and most have a speed limit below 35. Having a high speed chase with 200 cars seems deranged. They got plate numbers. The whole thing is bizarre. This had to be planned and staged. What kind of wing nut group does this?

I've seen it with motorcycles and ATVs in New Haven

Yeah it’s pretty much guaranteed in Hartford and West Hartford any time the weather gets nice

The last time a huge crowd of dirtbikers rolled through new haven that I can remember was a few summers ago. And those fuckwits tried to steal police cruisers (unsuccessfully).

But they were on two of the flattest and straightest roads in town, the definitely could have pursued them. That and they’ve always been happy to pull people over, it strikes me as very weird that they don’t.

could be the cop(s) ran the plate and knew who it was - maybe it was a kid or their parent(s) are a somebody - and decided to let them go, otherwise yah it's not terribly safe to have a high speed chase through the streets of simsbury where a bunch of families with kids live, I should say privileged and entitled families with overzealous helicopter parents who complain about anything and everything like if you fart too loudly in town after 9pm
