In Southern California, of course, a large RV that had been hijacked and was being pursued by the police. It’s a 50 minute video. Skip to about 3 minutes in to see the first crash. Skip to 14 minutes in to see the end of the pursuit. This is best watched in full screen (press Esc to escape full screen).
I post this because it’s quite an unusual one (as well as a large RV it involves a woman and a dog). Also, these live-on-air police pursuits are now a regular staple in places like California (because they get a huge amount of viewers), which brings in the bread and circuses aspect of it. And the last ‘also’ is the huge volume of roads and traffic in parts of the world like this – the LA freeways are a wonder to behold.

It seems like a battle of wills, with the workers, usually state workers, against the government. Private sector jobs rarely strike, these days in the U.K.
