I have to appreciate that The Post included the colorful shouts of the mob that surrounded him in their reporting:
"As Rivera put cuffs on the daredevil-driver, a crowd of motorists, most of whom were traveling home from the holidays, whom Davis had hit or slammed into the side walls during his audacious getaway effort had formed a mob around the two men, screaming and cursing at him for putting their lives in danger, saying “are you f–king crazy” and “you motherf—ker! I have kids in my car!” law enforcement sources said."


But they did mess up with this description of the chase-ending damage to the car:
"During the wild escape attempt, Davis allegedly side-swiped five cars — and only came to a stop when the right driver’s side wheel was torn from the car near the middle of the tunnel, the source said."

He passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly twirly gum drops, and then smashed through the Queens-Midtown tunnel

Lol that his GF was in the car with him during the chase. Can't imagine the tantrum she must've been throwing

"Of the nearly 20 people in the five cars that Davis hit, only three were injured, including his girlfriend — who was in the passenger side seat during the whole debacle and suffered two broken bones in her ankle, according to sources."

Yea, I had to re-read that one a couple times and still clueless as to how the author came up with that description.

Would have gotten away if BMW built a stronger front suspension.

But seriously NYC so no jail time and back out driving the next day, insurance companies pay for all the damage, rates go higher for average joe driver and the Mayor blames cops for pulling him over in the first place
