High speed chase

Driving through San Jose on Interstate 880 on Friday evening, when a white car whooshed by at high speed. Shortly there-after, two police vehicles passed by, in pursuit, lights flashing.

As I continued, additional police vehicles continued to intermittently pass me, one by one, lights flashing. By the time I got to Highway 17, about 5-8 vehicles had passed me, in total. Each time, I watched them pass out of sight ahead of me, giving me a clue as to where the initial white car had gone. Knowing how many switchbacks Highway 17 has, I guessed the pursuit might end badly. As I reached a backup of vehicles, I knew the pursuit had resolved itself.

After waiting for several minutes, the line of vehicles began moving. We eventually passed several police vehicles and the white car, at a turnout, the white car now sporting a number of damaged panels from where the police vehicles had likely forced it off the road. I did not see the driver.

After that, smooth sailing to Santa Cruz. I briefly looked for a news report on Saturday, but no success.
