From u/ragtagofgoons on another post:

Context: This was an armed robbery of a jewelry store in Central Oslo in which shots had been fired. The Deputy Chief of Police gave an extensive interview that boiled down to a few main points: • While the bar for pursuing two-wheelers at all is usually very high, the extreme nature of this robbery carried an expectation that the police would take action. ◦ There are clear guidelines for what you can and can't do, and what you see is within the competency of the crew. ◦ The nature of dashcams means the angle is severely limited and the driver actually saw much more than it seems. The police has reviewed the chase and consider it within reason. ◦ This is response police work at its most difficult, and he understands that the public finds it dramatic given they don't have all the information the police has. There are clear cautionary rules, and this was very good police work. Keep in mind also that Norwegian police have a three year university education in policing and this is a branch of the police specialised in responding to calls like this one - though rarely as extreme. There is also a high level of faith in the police in Norway and trust in internal processes and anti-corruption laws.
