Cutting to the chase

A recent police brief in our newspaper concerned a 100 mph chase in Fontana. The headline, unfortunately, read "Driver arrested after 10- mph chase."

Reader Will Plunkett asks: "Fuel costs hitting the high-speed chase market, too?"

On a related note, Plunkett says that when driving behind an Omnitrans bus the other day, he was startled to see the bus had a huge ad for the film "Death Race." For the sake of the dozens of passengers on board, he decided not to goad the bus driver into a chase.
