I love our police! I had a really rough day when I was 17, I got lost and was very upset because I had no idea how to get home and they found me, bought me hot chocolate, put me on the exact train to get me home, called my mom and stayed with me until the train left. Those guys are my heroes
In 1996 I was in an exchange of Dutch police with the Czech State Police in Jihlava for a week. In those days they had a lot of real dangerous Russian gangsters. That's where they come from. They know what to do. The Czech colleagues almost all had private guns, next to their service gun. Just in case some criminal would come to their home. Don't mess with Czech Police. Beautiful country with very nice people.. but don't try to speak German with them.
Been to the Czech Republic several times as a German. We even went to Prague for a week with my high school class in ~2003. And the whole class of course spoke German to each other. Never felt unwelcome or got any negative stares... Quite the contrary. On the subway some the girls where singing an old German folk song "Es klappert die Mühle rauschenden Bach" - song about a gurgling stream flowing by a watermill, because 3 of us guys were desparate for a pee after a lot of excellent Beer and they wanted to annoy us. An elderly 70+ czech lady came up to them all of a sudden, laughing and sang along (in German) for a bit, as she seemed to know it from her younger days. If social media and smartphones had been a thing back then, this may have gone viral. It was a very nice moment... She of course did not know they just sang to tease the guys into wetting themselves on the subway... Which may be one of the reasons I remember it so well, because I was one those 3 dudes more and more reaching a state of panic 😀
These days, we don't have any issues with Germans, but that took time to develop.. In 1996 it was 7 years after the Velvet revolution only and 8 years before we even got into the EU, therefore the attitude of the Czechs back then was quite negative... But these days, if you're not Russian, we are very friendly...
In Czech republic is skoda something like 3.7 or 2.0 mustang or dodge or camaro in america..i think many czech people are tired of skoda cuz they are everywhere, but it doesnt mean that škoda are bad personally i love skoda cars i have subaru WRX and škoda octavia 2 wrs and i kinda like that combi

Actually from my experience and experience of my friends czech police are like the most chill cops you can imagine. They will never roughen you up, and if you don't endanger somebody or don't cause too many problems they would leave you be. A friend of mine, a cyclist, he was drunk, ran a red light during the night (empty street), they saw him, and they told him that if he deflated his bike tire and walked home, they wouldn't give him a ticket. And I know a lot of stories like that. (Not sure if that's good or bad, because it kinda encourages bad behaviour, but as I said as long as you're not endangering anybody and not causing problems, they will try to do their best to leave you be)
If you ever see me on a bike, I'm sure drunk as fu**. I have yet to find out which European country has the nicest/coolest cops; I haven't met any bad one so far. For all the sh** they have to face every day, they do an outstanding job.

3:30 i presume immigrants being transported, likely to germany, often immigrants are smuggled illegaly to germany or other rich european countries, often through czechia, or sometimes poland.
Fun fact: Push bumpers and overall pit maneuvers is relatively new thing in Czech police. Just few years old. Same as red and blue beacon scheme. Before that they were only blue.
in Czech police firefighters and ambulance crews are like literal brothers time to time they could switch people from one department to another that's also why Czech integrated units know what to do in serious business
1:15 Those trees, wonderful! I live in southeastern Bavaria, just 20 km away from the Czech border, and ever since they became a EU member, I'm there quite regularly. On our Bavarian side, roadside trees were cut down because a few idiots managed to kill themselves by speeding, losing control of their car, and hitting a tree. Of course it was not the idiot driver himself who caused the fatal accident, but the tree that stood in the way, so all trees had to go. That's why I enjoy driving on Czech country roads, they still have their trees. 2:40 You're mentioning siren signals, yes, they're quite different in the Czech Republic from what we have in Germany. Germany has a two-pitch signal that goes "ta-tü-ta-tü" and if I knew how to read notes instead of just sometimes picking around on my acoustic guitar I could tell you what "c'-g'" means. The Czech signal sounds more like the American one. 6:00 That sound surprised me, but hell, yeah! That's the kind of music I have in my car while driving. As to the Czech police in general, I remember them as really friendly. They once stopped me when I had a slightly damaged fender and they just wanted to know whether that accident happened in Germany or in the Czech Republic, and even with me speaking little Czech and them speaking little German, we concluded that everything was alright, and I drove on. In my experience, Czech people help you out if by ignorance you acted against one of their rules, and explain it to you so you won't do it again. In the region where I live, many Czech people speak German, and the more you'll get towards the capital, Prague, the more English speakers you will find. And as I wrote before, my knowledge of Czech is limited, but if needs to, I think I can get along with it.
As for trees the same problem you wrote is in Moravia, where some trees were cut. But when winter comes, there is nothing to hold the snow and all the snow comes to the roads and without trees you don´t know where the road is. I´ve seen in myself some years ago when just few cm of snow was, wind blew it on the roads and I wasn´t almost able to get back hom to South Bohemia because of that. Cutting the trees around roads is called stupidity.
I have to ask man ... when are you coming to visit? You seem to be really interested in the region lately. Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland are all awesome to see.
@@Dukenukem in NL pits are mostly done by SIV vehicles, which do not have modifications to lessen damage on their front bumper. If you watch the videos of previously called 'landelijke eenheid Politie', you will find videos that show you that they certainly get damaged front bumpers. Foremost reason the Police don't have push bars, are the added damage you would do in accidents.
Once time, I was captured by municipal police when I was DUI. I have 0,7˚% and they acted like on wild west. Then they called state police for backup. I was humble and knew I made a mistake, and in compare to municipal police, they were cool guys. When I was transported for blood samples to make exact results, I asked them if they handcuffed me. They laughed and told me, that I look like a polite person and hope, that I will not run away :D
2nd chase was people smuggling illegal immigrants in the van the PIT at night is just outside of Prague, I drive there quite often. It's near Aquapalace aquapark, look into that one btw, its quite cool one) and the one in the city is in capital Prague

When you are talking about how the police is "coordinated", I think that main reason is that in Czech Republic police does not expect that the runner will start shooting from an firearm right after they stop him :D
9:23 This style of architecture is very common throughout the old Austro-Hungarian Empire - you can find cities that look like this in many parts of Austria, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, western Ukraine…
In Switzerland there's not one model of car for police cars so you can see a lot of different things. The police force where I live all had Skoda Octavia for a while!
@@keenmate9719 Octavia combi is quite large for what they need, on the other hand Scala is too small, I've heard policemen complain that there's not enough space to fit all their gear
In Hungary the Police use a lot of Skoda cars too. Just because they are relative cheap to do all day business, not so high maintenance cost, but enough power for the most of chasing (I know, our police does not chase, just follow the suspect🤫🤔 ) I have personally a Skoda Octavia, this is a nice car for normal people. It is nothing luxury, nothing extra, just practical so perfect for the normal use. The companies use a lot of Octavias in his fleets. I love mine too, because it is so practical, especially the estate/combi variant. A lot of place (in its segment) for the back seats and also a lot of space in the trunk and it is full of practical things which are doing all day business so easy.
red-blue things were also introduced few years ago, also the changing pitch/sequence of their siren is to battle the phenomenon where you will eventually start ignoring repetitive noise - such as clock ticking or a bus engine - the sirens can echo through these narrow streets for quite some time before you spot firetruck/ambulance/police 1:31 looks like Kodiaq 3:22 that was an illegal immigrant trafficking case 4:50 that was a stolen BMW X6, driver also under influence I think, tried to run through the ditch but got stuck 7:14 another illegal immigrant trafficker 9:00 stolen van
5:15 look like they put the spikes next to some concrete thing, maybe like a manhole for access to drainage or cables. Car got stuck and is kinda tipping on top of it.
This maps.app.goo.gl/nwZPoN2Un44Z838w8 is the place. I think it was stump of cut down tree that was hidden in grass. Police correctly chose this place to make it imposible to get through.
Im from czech republic and it made me happy that someone is reacting to our police cars and how they look in action, skoda is my favorite car like to see it used as a police car :D anyways nice video enjoyed it
The "Pit maneuver" (from the 1st clip) when they flip the ofending car from the back corner can be only performed by specialized vehicles and trained officer, they are not new (think 5 years ago they were introduced), but they are still more rarity then normal.
9:26 I guess the same way we are watching parts of the chase: street cameras. A city surveillance or police operator could inform the units in real time. (?
Yes, the Czech police are very good at chasing, stopping and catching speeding drivers. They usually stop all stolen vehicles in Prague. It often happens that someone tries to transfer a stolen vehicle form Austria through the Czech Republic to Poland and then further east, often it is a drugged up driver who got paid for it. The mistake is if they try to drive through Prague or Brno. The camera systems capture them and then they are already being watched, even they don't know about it and hunt stars.
Thing is, Czech cops overlook most small things, but once you're on the list, you're in for a ride. Reminds me of the line from half life 2: "The combine can be slow to wake, but once they're up, you don't wanna get in their way." Which really applies for Czech police lol.
That BMW just got stuck in that ditch. Too many SUV owners think they have an all terrain vehicle but no. imho, Euro police are polite and professional in general (at least in BE they are in general). But that means they are professional when dealing with runners too.
@@Pidalin I love how people think SUVs are the most pointless vehicles because they're tall, heavy and can pose danger to other road users and pedestrians when buses and trucks are even taller, heavier and can pose even more danger to other road users and pedestrians**

Good to see our Czech police doing great job!! The cars in use are Škoda Kodiaq, Škoda Octavia, Škoda Superb (highway patrol), Hyundai ix35 and Škoda Fabia combi and some Audi S6, as well as a few hybrid BMW 745Le. Czech "SWAT units" also use black Toyota Hillux or Landcruisers. Cheers from Praque!
For people that don't understand the text in the down left corner it said 1.Doesn't say a thing about the chase 1:49 Chase in Zlín -PIT maneuver 3:47 Stranger under the influence in a stolen car 6:04 Pit maneuver, migrant smuggler 7:22 driving with a stolen car 9:56 car chase on Palm Street I hope i got it right my english isn't that good❤
general line up of cars in Europe: Hatchbacks (short stubby rear end), Sedan (usually 4 door, most common kind of standard car here in Europe), Station wagon (elongated rear end for more storage). Czech police usually run Station wagons because of the extra storage (for the added versatility they need in dealing with the public).
those skoda "sedans" are also hatchbacks (thats how theyre sold in UK) but we simply call them Liftbacks. but in general its the same thing. Sedan is a 4door vehicle, hatchback/liftback is a 5 door
The first Cars are Skoda Octavia STation Wagon and the SUV is the Skoda Kodiaq. Skoda is from Czech Republic The Sound at 05:44 is the sound of the dashcam when the hit the savebutton.
5:25 ditches here are much steeper and often deeper than in USA. They are often between 45-60 degrees, and some have almost vertical walls. They go from 50-150cm depth, tho mostly around meter deep.
Another perfect video :-) at 1:09 they are not on the road, but on the bike path, where cars are prohibited. I also ride this bike path quite often. It is on the western outskirts of Prague.
At 6:10 you can Skoda Superb Estate, those cars are used by Highway police as chase vehicles. With almost 300hp and 4x4 they are no joke and fast as hell. Peak of Skoda engineering.
Btw that hilly town with the cobblestones was Prague and some of the shots were from the old city centre. Might not seem special to you but I go through that exact damn street every day. Scary to think about getting hit by a crazed ass driving into pedestrians there just to get away from the police.
1:29 just for info, this chase ended like 5 mins from my house. That guy was going for pretty long time through big chunk of a Prague. Yeah, it was still in Prague. That part where it ended is called Nedvězí and it's basically one of many suburbs of Prague.
0:48 VW Golf (Mk5). Could also be GTI 0:56 the one in frame is Škoda Octavia Mk3 Combi. The one in which the camera is is 1st gen Škoda Kodiaq. You can see it at 0:43. And Kodiaq is considered very large SUV in Europe 2:18 Mercedes Vito 4:18 I think it's X4 Coupe
Yea Bro we really do LOVE our Škoda cars... we use them for literally everything... so many types of them and the Octavia and Superb and Fabia are the main deal in Czech Republic and Slovakia too
Hey man, Im form Czechia right from the town the second chase took place in. The van that was chased was driven by a foreign woman. All of the people in the van were illegal migrants and there were 17 of them. The woman driving was positively tested for drugs.
Here in the Czech Republic, there aren't many alleyways like in New York, and it's difficult to escape the police. The roads between cities are simple, with few turns, so the chance that the police are waiting for you ahead is high. I would summarize it by saying that a person needs to be an extremely skilled driver, have good luck, knowledge of the terrain, and a calm head to have even a small chance of escaping the police.
1:52 in this chace. it happened in town called zlín and also in malenovice (town near zlín) a woman was driving the van and there were 17 migrants inside it
3:07 the police officer is speaking to his colleague on the walkie talkie (is that how you call it?) and from what i understand he said "píchni, píchni" which translates to "pierce, pierce" i think they somehow pierced the tire of the van in order to stop it
As a Czech , I am very happy that someone is so interested in the work of our police. I also appreciate that you use the designation Czech Republic and not Czechia
I'm sending greetings from the Czech Republic. The truth is that if our police officers are chasing someone (and they know for sure that they are criminals), then hard, but routine checks are much tougher in America. In our country, the policeman usually does not reach for his weapon and you can talk to him normally. Normal roadside inspection (which happens in our country even without an offense - in some countries it is done, in some not at all) usually takes place completely calmly. Oh, and name of that Škoda is the Kodiaq. All the best.
Try check the Danish Politijagt, they use many differnt cars, among them WV Pasat 2,0TFSI and 2,0TDI, differnt Audi RS3 and RS4, Volvo V90 T8, and different Mercedes models.
The ísecond to last clip from the "pretty city" was Prague and they have street cameras and dispatchers sitting and watching communicating with the police. That is why they found him pretty easily.
9:30 I believe this takes place in Prague, our capital city. There are surveillance cameras pretty much everywhere so it's really not that hard for the police to track any criminal down.
hello, greetings from the Czech Republic, our police officers do not only have Škoda cars, but highway police officers have BMW 5 and also 1 Ferrari, and in the mountains, for example, not only Škoda Kodiaqs are used, but also Toyota Landcruisers
Czech police uses for interceptions mostly Škoda Octavia equipped with special bumper for PIT maneuvers. All the cars in the video were Octavias station wagon. No one was SUV Škoda Kodiaq although police has Kodiaqs also with special bumpers for PIT maneuvers. Here's Octavia th-cam.com/video/yqOSwtF3Tw8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=RTobi%28Rummeltobi%29 and here Kodiaq th-cam.com/users/shortswcqH7F_dYAE
8:17 Pay attention for that "No Entry" sign on right side of screen, which that van went through. Reason being most likely, to throw off the cops. "No entry" sign most of times means that you're entering one-way street the wrong way.
I'm also from the Czech Republic and what interested me is that most Americans say the same thing about us, but we don't think that about ourselves, on the contrary, we think that about the Americans, and also how dense and good they are, it's really interesting
Octavia, Kodiaq, Fabia :) Btw. the city You were talking about (chasing guy with van and then running in the streets) is Zizkov, the best part of a Prague.
5:54 That is the sound feedback from the camera thet a recording has been started or saved.

I really love your enthusiasm for our stuff, Ian :) I think you are the biggest American fan of the Czech Republic, and all the interesting things, and facts about us. Hope you will have a chance in the future to visit us, visit Škoda, and Tatra museums, and also drive them :D
5:14 he either hit some post from that fence or got stuck in bottom of the ditch (if there is one), they are sometimes quite narrow and bit dangerous as they can be hidden by grass and you can get even our feet stuck in them. Well you will not get trapped, but it is not pleasant to make step into the void. Other possibility is that there was hidden culvert and they got stuck on concrete parapet. It would make sense to place roadblock at such place. 8:05 Based on coordinates that chase took place in Prague.
As a German seeing so many Czech Police Chase Videos recently i'm jealous because especially here in Germany where you can drive 120mph (200kmh) or more on the Autobahn without the Police having a Reason to stop you we got some of the craziest Police Chases here. But sadly we Germans to this Day don't like publishing Footage of such Chases. There are a few decent ones out there, but the vast majority are considered "privatised". Point being: If the Police in Germany on the unrestricted Autobahn has to chase someone speeding, it's never because of their Speed, even if they go 200mph (320kmh) not illegal. However, if they drive like a Moron or are a Fugitive, you get the 200mph (320kmh) Chase. I hope German Police will start to be less "old-timey" and start being more proud of their Footage and release them, because here those might be more rare than in the USA, but they are definiitely more exciting. Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
Most of cars in this video were stolen, one was a migrant smuggler and some other drunken drivers, they don't catch them like that just because of speeding obviously. BTW, when I was going thru Germany (but that's like 15 yearsa go) I saw 120 km/h limit signs pretty much everywhere, unlimited speed only on some selected places.

"it would be bad if he decided to steal another car or went into one of those buildings" as a czech person, stealing a car here WHILE ON THE RUN is not particularly an option, and our buildings are closed, you need to ring a door to whomever you´r visiting, then tell them threw the door system that its you, and only then do the door open (after the person visiting pushes a button to open the door) the only other time he could´v disapeered into one of the buildings is if he lived there or if the first floor of that building is a shop of some kind. Also its good to see that people outside Czech republic respect our police and likes our cars
Ahoj! Not a czech just frequent visitor in winter because ..absinthe and gluhwein - can confirm czech police are mostly cool. If one of the riot squad look you in the eye...now thats scary.

as a czech your pronounciation of škoda is impressive, love the vid
in Czech police firefighters and ambulance crews are like literal brothers time to time they could switch people from one department to another that's also why Czech integrated units know what to do in serious business
Your English isn't really englishing.
1:15 Those trees, wonderful! I live in southeastern Bavaria, just 20 km away from the Czech border, and ever since they became a EU member, I'm there quite regularly. On our Bavarian side, roadside trees were cut down because a few idiots managed to kill themselves by speeding, losing control of their car, and hitting a tree. Of course it was not the idiot driver himself who caused the fatal accident, but the tree that stood in the way, so all trees had to go. That's why I enjoy driving on Czech country roads, they still have their trees.
2:40 You're mentioning siren signals, yes, they're quite different in the Czech Republic from what we have in Germany. Germany has a two-pitch signal that goes "ta-tü-ta-tü" and if I knew how to read notes instead of just sometimes picking around on my acoustic guitar I could tell you what "c'-g'" means. The Czech signal sounds more like the American one.
6:00 That sound surprised me, but hell, yeah! That's the kind of music I have in my car while driving.
As to the Czech police in general, I remember them as really friendly. They once stopped me when I had a slightly damaged fender and they just wanted to know whether that accident happened in Germany or in the Czech Republic, and even with me speaking little Czech and them speaking little German, we concluded that everything was alright, and I drove on. In my experience, Czech people help you out if by ignorance you acted against one of their rules, and explain it to you so you won't do it again. In the region where I live, many Czech people speak German, and the more you'll get towards the capital, Prague, the more English speakers you will find. And as I wrote before, my knowledge of Czech is limited, but if needs to, I think I can get along with it.
As for trees the same problem you wrote is in Moravia, where some trees were cut. But when winter comes, there is nothing to hold the snow and all the snow comes to the roads and without trees you don´t know where the road is. I´ve seen in myself some years ago when just few cm of snow was, wind blew it on the roads and I wasn´t almost able to get back hom to South Bohemia because of that. Cutting the trees around roads is called stupidity.
I have to ask man ... when are you coming to visit? You seem to be really interested in the region lately. Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland are all awesome to see.
well, Austria isn't bad either... (not blaming u for not including it tho)
SUV's are called Kodiaq, also from whole EU only Czech police are using push bars on their cars which are mostly Škoda Octavia.
Would love to see it in NL as well, saves damage costs on rammin/PITs.
@@jgowner6076 The PITs are only performed by modified cars, they take very limited damage even on newest cars.
he meant wagon - we call them combi
@@jgowner6076 I personally think push bars should be mandatory on police in all countries in Europe.
@@Dukenukem in NL pits are mostly done by SIV vehicles, which do not have modifications to lessen damage on their front bumper. If you watch the videos of previously called 'landelijke eenheid Politie', you will find videos that show you that they certainly get damaged front bumpers. Foremost reason the Police don't have push bars, are the added damage you would do in accidents.
Once time, I was captured by municipal police when I was DUI. I have 0,7˚% and they acted like on wild west. Then they called state police for backup. I was humble and knew I made a mistake, and in compare to municipal police, they were cool guys. When I was transported for blood samples to make exact results, I asked them if they handcuffed me.
They laughed and told me, that I look like a polite person and hope, that I will not run away :D
2nd chase was people smuggling illegal immigrants in the van
the PIT at night is just outside of Prague, I drive there quite often. It's near Aquapalace aquapark, look into that one btw, its quite cool one)
and the one in the city is in capital Prague
Im from Czechia and we have a lot of this..those days migrants going throw us to germany
That is not outside of prague. It happened in Zlín!
@@ondrejhanousek95016:00 - 7:05 jezdil sem tam denně, projížděli Čestlicema obchodní zónou, berou kruháč protisměrem, pak ten most je D1 a pak to berou u náměstí v Průhonicích
Druhé video je ze Zlína, malenovice konkrétně.
@@Iro6Maide6Eddie6o druhém videu píšu že to bylo s migrantama.
Potom píšu o "PIT at night", tak to těžko bude ten na Zlínsku ve dne 😂😂😂
When you are talking about how the police is "coordinated", I think that main reason is that in Czech Republic police does not expect that the runner will start shooting from an firearm right after they stop him :D
lol yea
9:23 This style of architecture is very common throughout the old Austro-Hungarian Empire - you can find cities that look like this in many parts of Austria, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, western Ukraine…
Also in Romania.
As a guy who lives in CZ, I really like people from America, UK and other reacting to anything from our country. Thumb up!
In Switzerland there's not one model of car for police cars so you can see a lot of different things. The police force where I live all had Skoda Octavia for a while!
west australian police are driving skoda superbs from a few that ive seen coming in to my petrol station after filling up (company fuel card)
@@gregorturner4753I find Octavia to be too small for police car, I would prefer Superb for our cars.
@@keenmate9719 Octavia combi is quite large for what they need, on the other hand Scala is too small, I've heard policemen complain that there's not enough space to fit all their gear
At 09:04 is Husitská street in Prague, not far from me. There's also a good American style bar there just past the blue road sign
In Hungary the Police use a lot of Skoda cars too. Just because they are relative cheap to do all day business, not so high maintenance cost, but enough power for the most of chasing (I know, our police does not chase, just follow the suspect🤫🤔 ) I have personally a Skoda Octavia, this is a nice car for normal people. It is nothing luxury, nothing extra, just practical so perfect for the normal use. The companies use a lot of Octavias in his fleets. I love mine too, because it is so practical, especially the estate/combi variant. A lot of place (in its segment) for the back seats and also a lot of space in the trunk and it is full of practical things which are doing all day business so easy.
red-blue things were also introduced few years ago, also the changing pitch/sequence of their siren is to battle the phenomenon where you will eventually start ignoring repetitive noise - such as clock ticking or a bus engine - the sirens can echo through these narrow streets for quite some time before you spot firetruck/ambulance/police
1:31 looks like Kodiaq
3:22 that was an illegal immigrant trafficking case
4:50 that was a stolen BMW X6, driver also under influence I think, tried to run through the ditch but got stuck
7:14 another illegal immigrant trafficker
9:00 stolen van
You are right man. All that police cars were Skoda :) Also that SUV (Kodiaq)
Police in Czech Republic do use other brands, but Škoda are just more common, which makes sense since it's their domestic brand.
5:15 look like they put the spikes next to some concrete thing, maybe like a manhole for access to drainage or cables. Car got stuck and is kinda tipping on top of it.
This maps.app.goo.gl/nwZPoN2Un44Z838w8 is the place. I think it was stump of cut down tree that was hidden in grass. Police correctly chose this place to make it imposible to get through.
Im from czech republic and it made me happy that someone is reacting to our police cars and how they look in action, skoda is my favorite car like to see it used as a police car :D anyways nice video enjoyed it
As a Czech i can confirm our Police doesnt f around like you said and also they dont take bribes they are impossible to bribe.
The "Pit maneuver" (from the 1st clip) when they flip the ofending car from the back corner can be only performed by specialized vehicles and trained officer, they are not new (think 5 years ago they were introduced), but they are still more rarity then normal.
i think most police departments have actually been trained to do em but not all officers are assigned the specialized vehicles
9:26 I guess the same way we are watching parts of the chase: street cameras. A city surveillance or police operator could inform the units in real time. (?
Yes, the Czech police are very good at chasing, stopping and catching speeding drivers. They usually stop all stolen vehicles in Prague. It often happens that someone tries to transfer a stolen vehicle form Austria through the Czech Republic to Poland and then further east, often it is a drugged up driver who got paid for it. The mistake is if they try to drive through Prague or Brno. The camera systems capture them and then they are already being watched, even they don't know about it and hunt stars.
Some Czech police officers went to America for training, where they learned the pit maneuvers, for example. And certainly other habits as well.
The one in The White BMW is stopped aprox 15km from my house. There’s also aprox 12 km between the start of the chase and the final stop.
Thing is, Czech cops overlook most small things, but once you're on the list, you're in for a ride. Reminds me of the line from half life 2: "The combine can be slow to wake, but once they're up, you don't wanna get in their way." Which really applies for Czech police lol.
That BMW just got stuck in that ditch. Too many SUV owners think they have an all terrain vehicle but no.
imho, Euro police are polite and professional in general (at least in BE they are in general). But that means they are professional when dealing with runners too.
It could be that the BMW was stolen.
SUVs are the most pointless cars.
@@Pidalin If SUVs are the most pointless cars, then older Land Rover Defenders and all military offroaders are pointless as well.
@@Pidalin I love how people think SUVs are the most pointless vehicles because they're tall, heavy and can pose danger to other road users and pedestrians when buses and trucks are even taller, heavier and can pose even more danger to other road users and pedestrians**
@@automation7295 "buses and trucks are even taller, heavier and can pose even more danger to other road users and pedestrians" that's the most demagogic answer I've even seen 😀 buses and trucks have some purpose, SUVs don't have any purpose, it's just a fashion of tastless people
Man I love your videos. So cool to see that you’re such a big fan of how we do things in Europe and our culture
8:11 This is in Prague, which is the capital.
I love these reactions. Makes me proud of our police. Greetings from Czech Republic!
Good to see our Czech police doing great job!! The cars in use are Škoda Kodiaq, Škoda Octavia, Škoda Superb (highway patrol), Hyundai ix35 and Škoda Fabia combi and some Audi S6, as well as a few hybrid BMW 745Le. Czech "SWAT units" also use black Toyota Hillux or Landcruisers. Cheers from Praque!
For people that don't understand the text in the down left corner it said
1.Doesn't say a thing about the chase
1:49 Chase in Zlín -PIT maneuver
3:47 Stranger under the
influence in a stolen car
6:04 Pit maneuver, migrant smuggler
7:22 driving with a stolen car
9:56 car chase on Palm Street
I hope i got it right my english isn't that good❤
general line up of cars in Europe: Hatchbacks (short stubby rear end), Sedan (usually 4 door, most common kind of standard car here in Europe), Station wagon (elongated rear end for more storage). Czech police usually run Station wagons because of the extra storage (for the added versatility they need in dealing with the public).
those skoda "sedans" are also hatchbacks (thats how theyre sold in UK) but we simply call them Liftbacks. but in general its the same thing. Sedan is a 4door vehicle, hatchback/liftback is a 5 door
The first Cars are Skoda Octavia STation Wagon and the SUV is the Skoda Kodiaq. Skoda is from Czech Republic
The Sound at 05:44 is the sound of the dashcam when the hit the savebutton.
5:25 ditches here are much steeper and often deeper than in USA. They are often between 45-60 degrees, and some have almost vertical walls. They go from 50-150cm depth, tho mostly around meter deep.
Another perfect video :-) at 1:09 they are not on the road, but on the bike path, where cars are prohibited. I also ride this bike path quite often. It is on the western outskirts of Prague.
Hi, I´m from Czech Republic and I have to say your videos are pretty cool, especially about czech cars. I like your channel.....
At 6:10 you can Skoda Superb Estate, those cars are used by Highway police as chase vehicles. With almost 300hp and 4x4 they are no joke and fast as hell. Peak of Skoda engineering.
Btw that hilly town with the cobblestones was Prague and some of the shots were from the old city centre. Might not seem special to you but I go through that exact damn street every day. Scary to think about getting hit by a crazed ass driving into pedestrians there just to get away from the police.
As a czech a love watching these videos, thanks a lot, keep up the great content.
The Škoda Suv’s are mybe Kodiaq or Karoq
The snapping sounds you hear in the 6th minute of the video is a sound of a handbrake being pulled up and secured in place
1:29 just for info, this chase ended like 5 mins from my house. That guy was going for pretty long time through big chunk of a Prague. Yeah, it was still in Prague. That part where it ended is called Nedvězí and it's basically one of many suburbs of Prague.
Skoda Octavia VRSs, and CZ P10Cs, best of the Czechs!!!
Usually there are ditches near road from which you can't move unless someone tows you or with crane.
At 8:07 that is actually in Prague 3, starting in Seifertova street. :)
As a civilian from Czech Republic i love to watching some American TH-camr and hear Czech things😂😂
0:48 VW Golf (Mk5). Could also be GTI
0:56 the one in frame is Škoda Octavia Mk3 Combi. The one in which the camera is is 1st gen Škoda Kodiaq. You can see it at 0:43. And Kodiaq is considered very large SUV in Europe
2:18 Mercedes Vito
4:18 I think it's X4 Coupe
Yea Bro we really do LOVE our Škoda cars... we use them for literally everything... so many types of them and the Octavia and Superb and Fabia are the main deal in Czech Republic and Slovakia too
Hey man, Im form Czechia right from the town the second chase took place in. The van that was chased was driven by a foreign woman. All of the people in the van were illegal migrants and there were 17 of them. The woman driving was positively tested for drugs.
Ian, V8 Supercars are back at Bathurst on the weekend Feb 24/25th, one 250Km (40 laps) race on Saturday and another 250Km race on Sunday.
Here in the Czech Republic, there aren't many alleyways like in New York, and it's difficult to escape the police. The roads between cities are simple, with few turns, so the chance that the police are waiting for you ahead is high. I would summarize it by saying that a person needs to be an extremely skilled driver, have good luck, knowledge of the terrain, and a calm head to have even a small chance of escaping the police.
1:52 in this chace. it happened in town called zlín and also in malenovice (town near zlín) a woman was driving the van and there were 17 migrants inside it
5:45 That sound is from the dashcam. It plays when you manually save the recording
Yeah, as a Czech myself, i think the model o the police car from 1:40 is most likely "octavia". They dont make them anymore tho...
5:18 lol this is 2 kilometers from my hometown
3:07 the police officer is speaking to his colleague on the walkie talkie (is that how you call it?) and from what i understand he said "píchni, píchni" which translates to "pierce, pierce" i think they somehow pierced the tire of the van in order to stop it
As a Czech , I am very happy that someone is so interested in the work of our police. I also appreciate that you use the designation Czech Republic and not Czechia
I'm sending greetings from the Czech Republic. The truth is that if our police officers are chasing someone (and they know for sure that they are criminals), then hard, but routine checks are much tougher in America. In our country, the policeman usually does not reach for his weapon and you can talk to him normally. Normal roadside inspection (which happens in our country even without an offense - in some countries it is done, in some not at all) usually takes place completely calmly. Oh, and name of that Škoda is the Kodiaq. All the best.
Try check the Danish Politijagt, they use many differnt cars, among them WV Pasat 2,0TFSI and 2,0TDI, differnt Audi RS3 and RS4, Volvo V90 T8, and different Mercedes models.
The ísecond to last clip from the "pretty city" was Prague and they have street cameras and dispatchers sitting and watching communicating with the police. That is why they found him pretty easily.
9:30 I believe this takes place in Prague, our capital city. There are surveillance cameras pretty much everywhere so it's really not that hard for the police to track any criminal down.
hello, greetings from the Czech Republic, our police officers do not only have Škoda cars, but highway police officers have BMW 5 and also 1 Ferrari, and in the mountains, for example, not only Škoda Kodiaqs are used, but also Toyota Landcruisers
i think this chase was in Prague: 7:43
We need more of that Wild Police Chases - Czech Republic.
thumbnail: "they dont f#ck around"
considering the bmw i8s (czechs understand) then yeah, its kinda true :DD
Czech police uses for interceptions mostly Škoda Octavia equipped with special bumper for PIT maneuvers. All the cars in the video were Octavias station wagon. No one was SUV Škoda Kodiaq although police has Kodiaqs also with special bumpers for PIT maneuvers. Here's Octavia th-cam.com/video/yqOSwtF3Tw8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=RTobi%28Rummeltobi%29 and here Kodiaq th-cam.com/users/shortswcqH7F_dYAE
8:17 Pay attention for that "No Entry" sign on right side of screen, which that van went through. Reason being most likely, to throw off the cops.
"No entry" sign most of times means that you're entering one-way street the wrong way.
I'm also from the Czech Republic and what interested me is that most Americans say the same thing about us, but we don't think that about ourselves, on the contrary, we think that about the Americans, and also how dense and good they are, it's really interesting
time 2:29 - you can see there PIVOVAR MALENOVICE - guess what that means :))) its a small beer brewery in that town of Malenovice :)
Octavia, Kodiaq, Fabia :) Btw. the city You were talking about (chasing guy with van and then running in the streets) is Zizkov, the best part of a Prague.
5:54 That is the sound feedback from the camera thet a recording has been started or saved.
I really love your enthusiasm for our stuff, Ian :) I think you are the biggest American fan of the Czech Republic, and all the interesting things, and facts about us. Hope you will have a chance in the future to visit us, visit Škoda, and Tatra museums, and also drive them :D
IWrocker is one of the few americans that knows that my country exist
I love the little rabbit the police have on dashboard 😂
Looks like Skoda Octavia, great nimble cars, they use them in Hungary too
5:14 he either hit some post from that fence or got stuck in bottom of the ditch (if there is one), they are sometimes quite narrow and bit dangerous as they can be hidden by grass and you can get even our feet stuck in them. Well you will not get trapped, but it is not pleasant to make step into the void. Other possibility is that there was hidden culvert and they got stuck on concrete parapet. It would make sense to place roadblock at such place.
8:05 Based on coordinates that chase took place in Prague.
As a German seeing so many Czech Police Chase Videos recently i'm jealous because especially here in Germany where you can drive 120mph (200kmh) or more on the Autobahn without the Police having a Reason to stop you we got some of the craziest Police Chases here. But sadly we Germans to this Day don't like publishing Footage of such Chases.
There are a few decent ones out there, but the vast majority are considered "privatised".
Point being: If the Police in Germany on the unrestricted Autobahn has to chase someone speeding, it's never because of their Speed, even if they go 200mph (320kmh) not illegal.
However, if they drive like a Moron or are a Fugitive, you get the 200mph (320kmh) Chase.
I hope German Police will start to be less "old-timey" and start being more proud of their Footage and release them, because here those might be more rare than in the USA, but they are definiitely more exciting.
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
Most of cars in this video were stolen, one was a migrant smuggler and some other drunken drivers, they don't catch them like that just because of speeding obviously. BTW, when I was going thru Germany (but that's like 15 yearsa go) I saw 120 km/h limit signs pretty much everywhere, unlimited speed only on some selected places.
The "countryside" in the Czech Republic is 85% of the country in the middle, which is funny.
And the Škoda SUVs are Škoda Kodiaq.
as a Czechian i like to see a american liking the stile of the police we have here in Czechia
Police, firefighters and ambulance has different sounds of sirens. 5:50 second sirene sounds like ambulance
Hi. You probably won't be surprised by a driver who drives with his feet. Have you ever seen a man who lost his hands in an accident and competes at the highest level in drift racing? who carries Drift legend Ken Block on the right seat?? You must see this:
"Drifting with No Arms?! Ken Block Rides Along With Armless Driver Bartosz Ostalowski."
Greetings from Poland
second chase was from Moravia. This Van was full of imigrands.
01:50 SUV Škoda Kodiaq , 2.0 liter petrol engine turbocharged, 180 kW = 245 hp, 7-speed DSG (gearbox)
05:20 spike strip
05:47 sound is police body camera
"it would be bad if he decided to steal another car or went into one of those buildings" as a czech person, stealing a car here WHILE ON THE RUN is not particularly an option, and our buildings are closed, you need to ring a door to whomever you´r visiting, then tell them threw the door system that its you, and only then do the door open (after the person visiting pushes a button to open the door) the only other time he could´v disapeered into one of the buildings is if he lived there or if the first floor of that building is a shop of some kind. Also its good to see that people outside Czech republic respect our police and likes our cars
As a Czechian i am proud to see you like our policie 😀
Ahoj! Not a czech just frequent visitor in winter because ..absinthe and gluhwein - can confirm czech police are mostly cool. If one of the riot squad look you in the eye...now thats scary. Also you cannot kill Skodas. First time I went I hired a budget skoda, drove it from Prague to Colditz over the ore mountains and back, took it to Vienna and Budapest and dented every panel including roof. I returned it to hire car place still running even with grass hanging out of the grill. ❤ Czech
The SUVs they use are Kodiaq and Karoq, not sure if they are sold in US
5:50 its the dash cam getting pictures of whats happening, it sends to the history/the police station, however im not sure if what i said is true
