In the end, this is one of the most important factors. A few months ago I've been watching videos of police chasing motorcycles (mostly stolen, but some were just unlicensed riders) in slums of São Paulo, and even though sometimes the riders who were being hunted down seemed to have an advantage, most of the time their lack of riding skills turned the odds against them.
