The reason they run is because they either have a warrant out for their arrest, they have no insurance or they were drunk.

The reason these nitwits run for it is because to them, their lives are like an adventure movie with them as the main action hero. Running away adds drama for them.

I always wonder why these morons run for it. Wow, I'm betting the cops aren't going to run the plates to see who owns the car or check the glove compartment for insurance/registration info. Woohoo...let's see if we can get away with it by running.....not.
