Training for pursuits I would think.


Don't they back the traffic up away from the car they are chasing using a rolling road block?

I would have thought that simply belting along a deserted motorway (or whatever) was hardly typical of a real pursuit situation, and therefore of limited value as a training exercise.

Best wishes all,

Rolling roadblock to clear debris from the road further up? Once clear, procedure seems to be to F* off into the distance on the emptied road!
