Well, steel arms.  Those dashboard cameras don't flinch often.  ;)

From the disposition of the cars it looks like they were setting up a road block or a checkpoint of some type. Are those spike strips in the road on both sideS?

I love how quickly the cop changes his mind about going back to his car.  And then how both vehicles go perfectly around the car filming.

It was a roadblock. Saw it on the news.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Yep, the van lost it before he even hit the stopstrips
 That cop was about as lucky as anyone can get

Wonder if he Slimed his tires if the spike strips would work

Ask those who have been before you

Spike strips don't just puncture the tire. They leave at least one or more small steel cylinders in the tiire to vent the air unsder a controlled loss rate. This holds the hole open and should do so with "slime" in the tire.
