    More mass as well, which will take more energy to stop and will destroy whatever it’s flung into.

      You don’t do a PIT without wanting to kill the person in the car. The cops want it to be deadly.

      It’s hilariously dangerous for everyone involved, but mostly for the person getting slammed into by an armored cop car.

        Seems like the kind of thing that was originally intended as a last resort that cops decided should be their second choice instead.
