In my opinion, having 5 or more policeman standing in one stationary
spot will not be as effective as having them out on the road.  Do you
think that possibly less damage would have been done if a moving
policeman could have spotted the driver before then?  They could certainly
cover a lot more ground, and would be out for other useful things like
helping people whose car has stopped before they get mugged, etc.

Do not follow where the path may lead.
Go, instead, where there is no path, and leave a trail.
