Stolen Dodge Challenger hits 161 MPH to escape THE LEGEND Trooper Byrd 

Not only is trooper Byrd a wonderful officer he gives the most wonderful reviews of his interaction with the general public

So true.

because of his skill set, asp should outfit hm with a charger that has more hp than what he has now........then, perps will either be arrested and/or pitted out......because only his vehicle is the weak link in his chase's......

How did he know the tag didn't match???

@@tavaresmccree5005 Plate reader-most bigger agencies have them.

🤣🤣🤣

That pedestrian was the driver.

@@sailorddg9877😂😂😂

That's the thing he lost him..but still going at that speed through a school zone at night chasing ghosts.That is putting people at the risks

Dude he lost that car a while ago just keep high speeding because he can.

Just tearing up state property thrill seeking

Getting smoked won't stop adrenaline junky cops from putting the public in danger.

@@lavalais45 If you watch on a big screen you can see that the car is still in the distance with its lights flashing on and off at 4:10 and then it drives round the bend at 4:14 and disappears. Pretty hard to spot on a phone screen. Also he can see the huge skid marks in the roads!

cop pass him at 3:48😂😂

Byrd is a bad cop.

too much adrenalin

no fucking way@@draco2xx

Nope. At 2:40. I know. That's my cousin driving that car@@draco2xx

The case started at 0:56 and the bandit was last seen at 2:41.

He got an excuse to speed lol bozo

@@adrianmitchell9819not true the last time you see him is at 4:14

😂😂😂😂

He got an ego by now yall make it seem like hes a super Cop that wont get smoked in that patrol car that tops at 130 😂

I think ASP is just good about uploading to their channel(s). My brother in law is a cop in OKC, he says you'd be amazed at the number of people who attempt to evade/elude/run when they get lit up. The reason Chargers/hellcats can often 'win' is because they aren't beholden to the laws that cops have to abide by, whether it's the 130mph ceiling or themaximum speed allowance for blowing through stop signs (which is the main reason people get off the highway and then trawl cops through residential grid w/ 4-way stops since they can blow through them with no braking, then zig zag left right at each stop sign or every other stop sign and with that stronger engine and no need to brake, you gain huge swaths of lead each time the cop slows for a stop sign. Regardless, Byrd is a demon! I imagine some of these dudes are in shock seeing Byrd right on their tail the entire chase

i agree, i didnt realize running from the police was a thing people do on a regular basis

The cost more than double what they paid for these 5.7's

​@@squirrelmaster1225not everyone stops cmon. Screw those pigs...y cuz we in a mopar? Showm wat they want

We love high speeds everywhere brother 😂

Most of the chases he has are doped out people driving 4 cylinder cars. And there a some V8s but they’re stolen. So they’re incompetent drivers.

⁠@@markelraya10 yeah, I forgot that most of those chargers he gets are 4 cyclinders. Just delete your comment.

If you knew how to drive, he would’ve been closer, complete amateur!

@@markelraya10 The was probably a Hellcat Challenger to which Trooper Byrd's police 5.7L is no match but sometimes they get caught anyways as Hellcats eat gas fast. I'd be scoping out gas stations in the area if I were the trooper.

even legends lose

Sweating bullets

It seems like many of these pursuits are needlessly continued due to bruised egos. Byrd got burnt from the jump and lost sight of the vehicle he was pursuing but opted to continue chasing what was essentially a ‘ghost’. Take the ‘L’ and catch ‘em another day. 😂

99.9% of cops dont. You of course know, this was not his limitation nor his absolute and total disregard of the public safety over all...this was his car was not fast enough.

Yes, Harry.

Man must comsider The odds

i think bro passed the challenger at about the 4 minute mark, i think he slowed down and blended in hahah

​@@mr-bobthe2nd841pause at 3:51 Is that him!!!!??? 😂🤣

@@wess493 nigga 😂🤣

Holy shit that is him lmao good looks

@@mr-bobthe2nd841I was about the comment the same thing dumb ass cops 😂

Definitely did look like him lol

100% agree

Nope, different car. The headlight on the car which the officer chased had a bright light spot at the front where the headlights bled out. The car at 3:50 did not have feature. Compare 0:36 to 3:50. Also, a different color, but this is hard to be sure of just by the video.

"V1" is a high performance Challenger with a prominent dual exhaust system clearly visible under the car. The Challenger at 3:50 is an innocent bystander, possibly a V6. Its headlights are also a significantly warmer shade than the suspect vehicle. Remember, the trooper could see this all much more clearly than we can on the video.

Suspect car have rear reflectors and more separation between the tail lights.

Speed versus power 👍🏻

Acceleration only matters when you’re in the city, but this guy was on a straight highway so he ain’t got nothing to worry about

adrenaline as well i guess, good he decided to stop as it can't be his 1st miss.

Pride got nothing to do with it. Maybe Byrd was hoping to catch up with him somewhere

a speeding hulk of metal is a speeding hulk of metal, it kills the same whoever drives it!

His ego is going to kill someone.

Naw he needs a hellaphant motor

I was thinking they should get him a hellcat he could handle it

Shit I’d love to give trooper byrd a hyper car

I swear Trooper(s) Byrd is only as weak as the agency that employs him(them) and let’s be honest that agency that employs him is not weak... It only goes to highlight how much more we need to fund as opposed to defund the police.

I say we all fund this 😂😂😂

Tax payer fuel

Nope, if you look closely you can still see the lights flashing in out in the distance when he gets off the interstate and turns at the traffic lights. Hes also following the huge skid marks in the road that show him where the driver has turned. The last time he is seen is at 4:14 in the distance

@@Johndoe-gf7eu Oh Jesus, Inspector Clouseau discovered some hints. 😒

@@scottjackson163right lmao, this cop was wasting time. After the first bend he was completely lost with his exit speed. The drift at 4:37 kinda shows his skill level though haha.

@@Hushh_2024 Maoi was nuked, you worry about gas.

It was a Challenger, not a charger

get good ahead, black out and use your parking brake (no brake lights), and swing into a bar parking lot. give yourself a good 5 seconds to trot to the door. done deal. 'course this butthead will do it again, thinking he's invincible, and either get caught or kill himself.

4:14 was the last time I saw the car.

@@matthewnorman9803 I lost it at 3

@@em1osmurf There's a great trick the 'undefeated black charger' did (whether its the same car or just some myth that is attributed to any black charger that successfully flees) where the cop lights him up on a road in town, charger flees, gets some distance, not a crazy amount but decent enough, takes a hard right and onto the highway on ramp which curves a couple ways where the cop loses sight briefly, a few second later the cop is now on the highway and races past the cars going w/ the flow of traffic to catch up with the charger, not realizing one of the cars he passed was the charger! The vid breakdown shows it was the same tail/lights, everything. I bet that driver laughed the entire way home after a victory like that

There's always a 50/50 chance the runner can't drive and will crash himself out.

he aint forking out for repairs, he's just out foolin & playin!

I believe you mean the guy in the challenger is crazy

The cop is just doing his job. The guy running from him is the crazy one.

It's his ego that made him continue the chase for as long as he did.

@@crow2swann5that’s exactly what I think lol. His pride was torn apart. I was wondering wth he was doing😂

Last sighting was at 4:14, less than 3 minutes before the cop gave up so.......

ftp

Tha´scall perseverance, is a good quality in life, you should try it.

Lmao right😂 guys fukn gonna kill someone

Gone in 45 seconds

Lost sight of him within what? A little over a minute and a half give or take? Completely lost him and kept pursuing a ghost for the other 6 or so minutes. Ego is a hell of a drug.

u riding that shii w no license 😂😂

u riding that shii w no license 😂😂

eventually it'll crash, just hope when it does it only takes out the retard behind the wheel, and not some innocent victim in the process.

They need to find that guy and offer him a job with the ASP. Driving skills like his could definitely be used on the force and he would be a great partner for Officer Byrd!

I have a suspicion that the driver of that Charger is a former cop driving a ex police Charger with a wing. The way it goes around those corners makes me think it's AWD. Just my opinion.

@@lordstingray2382 Are only the pursuit chargers get the awd?

@@theclubhouse1209 nah yo daddy v6 got it too

Legend ....I ran one time way back in the day and I didn't even have that fast of a car but he had to turn around to come after me so I had a little distance on him.....I think we, especially you had a little luck on our side.

A little o'l white lie doesn't hurt huh?

Yep. Been awhile but I've definitely outran and outsmarted the radio.

@@phillipguthrie9030 why would anyone come to RU-vid comments to lie about something that doesn't matter....lol I know they do but why

@@michaelcosta7235 how

Yes I heard this also. Tires are rated for mph. Good call, I have forgotten that!

90s tires were a lot simpler than modern tires. 130mph was fast in early 90s, today it's not fast.

@@dr.jillalicecooper2587 , wow!! Just looked this up! A tyrese rated W is 168mph. A tyrese rated Y is 186mph ! They are EXPENSIVE!

Cars were much different back then, they didn't have the stability they do now. If you were doing 130 it felt like your car was gonna come apart. Now you can take a factory Nissan and do 150 down the highway and it feels like your doing 80.

​@@Moosenukkels I had a 98 and 99 LS 400 and they were the best vehicles I've ever driven.

That's the first time I seen a car get away from Byrd..HE'S called because he has been dirt track driving since 15 years old and always when catches up is let pass by other troopers...first time for everything..I heard the police has 300 on order and they been discontinued afterwards...talk between two departments, arkansas and another...

What will they do when the Chargers are aged out? SUV's don't go that fast.

FTP buddy 🐽

@@garyclarke2385where’s the information for that he has been dirt track

@@garyclarke2385 He got gapped by the undefeated black charger too

In shame? What a comic book mind you have.

looks like they stuck the byrdman with a neutered car, his top was what 140 in this one? old ones seem like he hit 150 pretty damn easy.

@@Dratchev241 He probably just didnt max it out. 140 to 150 in those 5.7’s takes a little bit of time, it didnt look like it was limited im sure he has the same car

​@@Dratchev241 yeah, just because he didn't hit 150 doesn't mean he was limited to 140

Bet he's asking his department for a hellcat now.

@@playerx2006 Imagine Trooper Byrd gets sent to helicopter school 💀

yea, the car seemed like it was slipping and sliding everywhere. i remember one pursuit where he was flying down the highway at 155 and the car was taking it like a champ

But when he catches somebody yall don't say the car caught the suspect. He got smoked....that's all there is to it...pick ya battles wisely 🤷🏾‍♂️

yep, Only 140 mph.

Ego over reason, gotta get that ticket

You think the stolen car is yours? You muddy thinker.

I dont😂😂😂

@@TheUniverseHasMyBack We will review your google account request google for the address/name on your account, get your name that shows to that address from the postal office(verify ID info), then we will look your name up in our system see what type of car you drive. then we will go ahead and review any pursuits that match your car description found on your DL. We will then go the judge get a warrant then we will talk with prosecutors about the max charges we can get you on. Thanks for admitting guilt which now started a path to actually proving you're guilty. Takes about 3 days to get all that info. lol

i seriously doubt it. im from Jackson Tennessee. this is very common in Jackson except its not the state troopers. its the Jackson city police and Madison county police chasing people and i hear most of these chases in Jackson end on TN-223 in Denmark or I-40 Westbound in Denmark or I-40 Eastbound in the outskirts of Jackson...sometimes US-45 Southbound in Pinson but chases on US-45 are pretty rare

With all them wide open stretches why would they

ambulances!

You see patrol cars exceeding 160 mph in these videos. I used to take my 69 Cougar that fast. You're passing tail lights by 100 mph. These cop cars are rock solid. A really big fast Mopar will run out of gas if you just dog him long enough. What are you gonna do at 160+? A pit maneuver? Be real.

@@andykerr3803asp doesn’t have cars that go that fast though. Gsp does but asp ain’t got enough money to waste like that

chance to change their undies & take a leak & maybe throw up?

👍 thats what I thought. Or else he d be caught in the traffic jam.

only thing better than watching is participating

I saw that too, was it the same Challenger? may have been. cause otherwise where the fuck did he go, dude was just gone.

He sure did

I saw that! Lol Got ‘Em!!!🤣

He did, drove right by him.

Y'all eyeballs is fo sheet. It was a Silver challenger not a Plum Crazy Purple challenger.......dumbazzes.

Just because you can't see/hear something on your iPhone doesn't mean the person living the event can't see/hear it.

these videos don't capture NEARLY what your eyes can in real life. Set your dash cam to even the very highest quality video and film a night time highway drive then compare it to what you actually see, these videos can seem really misleading. On mid-level quality video like this, it's crazy hard to see a blacked out black challenger that far up on the highway at night, but with real eyes you definitely can keep eyes on even a blacked out car at night for a surprisingly long time

ASP needs to send its amateur drivers to Germany to learn how to drive fast, some basic training would be in order!

@@bumspanka0927 rather see German driving tests come to America... these newer drivers are total wankers!

​@@bumspanka0927 German cops would kill themselves in US, they're not used to this. Stop spreading fairy tales about superior german skills😂

he should top out at 160 at least.

There was almost nobody on the highway. Who was he endangering, the invisible highway spirits?

@mathmanchris666 did you just read what you said smart ass key word being almost? Also, was the car autonomous there was himself!!

It's easier to see with your eyes than the camera, and the sound of the exhaust

"How does law enforcement keep track of the road runners? Which way did he go?" As far as I can see from other videos, the normal methods are: *It's daytime and easier to see *The runner is held up by traffic *The runner crashes their car *Police helicopters get involved, at which point it is all over for the runner *Enough time to call on the network of other police cars *Generally, the runner is not in a car that can leave you standing when youre doing 140

Cars are already highly electrified to the point where this could be possible if not for the (il)legality of it. There's a fine line between criminal tracking and innocent tracking and I'm not sure we'll get to a point where we'll be comfortable with allowing big brother that much power... not that we always have a choice in the matter.

Will be quite opposite of crazy times. Tame times.

It's getting to the point they will be able to disable electric cars remotely.

@@spaulding304 They've got digital license plates that actually allow advertising now. LOL They also allow tracking... so... it won't be long before your license plate can disable your vehicle too!

@@tappajaavYeah giving people control over your always leads to tame times, more like tyrannical insanity that you cannot even fathom.

word up ftp

Criminally sleaze balls? Congrats.

sooner or later

them cops are reckless as hell bro, u've seen the vids. its why we watch 'em!

Arkansas couldn't care less about safety!! It's all about their pride being hurt if someone gets away 🤷‍♂️

tell the guy in the Challenger that since he was the one setting the speed of the chase.

Technically 40 mph is a risk. Can't be having semantics.

@@willschultz5452 GSP are the same way.

Byrd's boyfriend got beat up after his shift😂

2:40 he went black n jumped on the shoulder n rode that 18 wheeler dat was pulling cars 🥴

funny play on words, nice1

Right you can’t win them all but you can sure give it your best attempt

Not after this video

@@blackops8996 IDC still one of my favorite

That one was purple/grey, while the one chased was white.

Yeah totally different colors lol

You’d have to get close to do that, and as most of the time you won’t be able to get close chasing a Challenger

This matter is debatable Years ago I swearI thought exactly the same as you The ide is excellent👌, but it only works for stupid people who drive stupidly And you agree with me That you can catch them without having to trace them😏 Now comes the biggest problem with the idea👮‍ With Professional drivers after they getaway At a reasonable distance🏎 they can stop within seconds and remove it Because the sound of its firing💥 will certainly be heard at the back of the vehicle Here he can throw it away Or better, attach it to another vehicle passing by Thus, you will lose the piece for free and will go after someone else😄 Not to mention that these professionals will have anti-jamming devices Certainly, the market will be filled with different types of tracking jammers The idea is certainly excellent in principle But implementation in reality is almost impossible, and ensuring its effectiveness is weak, it would be like a waste of resources And believe me, we have drivers for whom even a gun is useless This is a simple example ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C6KL6AlKM7Y.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RABVm5FGYjo.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eb3sdScX5uM.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ziOdj9gNA80.html

@@Johndoe-gf7eu yea this chase was over early, n it’s ok to fail once he got off the exit he didn’t know where he was he guessing which way to go

It's stolen (likely), so byrd will never get that opportunity, sadly.

@@dfwsociallyisolatednelly7120 unfortunately you're probably correct

@@dfwsociallyisolatednelly7120 You assume it was stolen. Just because the tag was wrong doesn't indicate the car is stolen.
