Occasionally police attempt to stop extraordinarily fast vehicles, as when an Arkansas trooper went after a Suzuki Hayabusa, only to be left in the dust. While patrol cruisers can be reasonably quick, they are no match for one of the fastest production motorcycles ever built.

The Hayabusa’s blistering acceleration made the trooper’s pursuit hopeless from the outset. The clip is a vivid reminder that some machines simply outclass anything law enforcement can field, at least when it comes to raw straight-line speed.
