I think we can get a few things out of the way first. I wouldn't have been driving with a piece of #### that would drive over and kill a cop while running away from them. Wouldn't be driving with someone who didn't have a license, and wouldn't be driving around with warrants out for my arrests for previous crimes. This whole scenario could have easily been avoided by making basic decisions and not being a terrible person. I think that gets ignored too often.
Now if I someone was a terrible person once the driver started to drive away I would have screamed for them to stop, fought them so they would have to take their foot off the gas and couldn't drive and attempted to outright subdue them. I don't think this would have been all that difficult by the reports I read it was a 17 year old driving, having a friend scream to stop likely at least would have made them stop for a minute. Fighting off the cop and the passenger likely makes it hard to continue to drive away from the cop. Does it guarantee that nothing happens? No, but I already did that by not being dumb enough to put myself in that situation to begin with.
