That's all I'm saying... I think it's a good idea to back off and give the motorcycle space if the person runs. They're less likely, in my opinion, to take a ridiculous risk like going the wrong way on the interstate to get away.. I think the chances of it ending without someone getting hurt are much higher, but maybe I'm crazy.

You can always radio ahead.. You can always set up a road block.. Just because you're not doing a pit maneuver on a motorcycle doesn't mean you can't still catch the bad guy.
