I'm fine with the cop taking some discipline for how he handled the end of this, but I really want to see Moates take some responsibility for telling the cop to go find his insurance himself (for example), or the woman for yelling and waving her fist at him.

I have a feeling no one will change their mind, but honestly I felt as if they were pretty cool considering the circumstances.

To take a slightly different take from the longish car chase, I would give the cop benefit of the doubt if the chase had been short and ended at the hospital. He wouldn't have had time to think about why they weren't stopping and where they stopped. But because the chase was pretty long, he had time to think about it.

On the flipside, they probably should've stopped and I've seen instances where the cop would run ahead of the family with his lights on to clear traffic so they can get there faster.
