- Memorable car chase scene from the Due South series with The Tragically Hip's "At The Hundredth Meridian". This was taken from Season 1 Episode 20 "Heaven and Earth".
I do not claim ownership over any aspect of this video. "Due South" was produced by Alliance Films. - Zábava

They had the most kickass chase scenes in this show. Great action, great soundtrack. We're gonna ride forever!
One of the best TV car chases of all time.
Good chase, but it doesn’t beat the chase scene in Miami Vice’s 1986 episode Down for the Count pt.2 where Crocketts Ferrari Testarossa went up against a Corvette Stingray and a Plymouth Hemi Cuda. The music was Don’t Need a Gun by Billy Idol.
This was an great quality chase, no question of that.
Oh, that Buick! This chase is one beautiful specimen.
the dramatic explosive end looks much like the end of the classic chase seen from Bullitt. Steve McQueen started the great cinematic car chase scene and lucky for us Due South fans they followed the general formula. Gotta love the Riviera, my dad had one!
This is w/out a doubt the best Due South car chase scene, thank you for posting it here!
I thought it was cool how that Gran Fury/Diplomat came out of nowhere and started workin' on em.
eldo59 that’s a diplomat, can tell by the grill. The Gran Fury’s have a little different one.
I love how they purposely avoid hitting anything with the Crown Vic's and the Caprice because they were still new cars at the time. Of course they're not going to wreck the Buick because it's the hero car. I wouldn't be surprised if the producers bought both the Ford and the Dodge off the same used car lot.
Due South at its absolute best long may it live with this red hot music to go with it. Aug 2020 👍🔥👍🔥😎😎💎💎😎😎
RIP Gord Downie, lead singer for The Tragically Hip.
I became a fan of the band because of this scene.
That makes two of us, mate. Maybe a lot more than two.
Yh makes 3, had to run downstairs to shazam it
Fantastic stunt driving, especially at 0:36!
Well, it's one of the TWO best car chase scenes!
The other is the one from "Gift of the Wheelman", which you yourself have generously posted! Thank you kindly!
2:08 is a really clever trick. I listened to this song and the singer drops an f-bomb at that point of the track, but they used the sound of the tires squealing to censor it in a way that doesn't pull you out of the scene.
BODY ROLL INTENSIFIES
Love how the stunt driver is turning like crazy @ 3:01 to actually *make* the car hit the gas pipes front first 😄. Gotta straighten up that slide before the shot gets fucked up! 👍
I get a kick out of the fact that even with all the crazy driving, the the Mounties' hat never moves around on the dash. Must use Hat Glue. LOL!
Constable Fraser's hat is basically superpowered. If he's wearing it, he's basically immune to bullets and sewage won't stick to his uniform.
Awesome chase. Well done all around. Realistic chaotic. Lotta effort went into this🍻
You can see the camera man above the chase at 2:25 because the next scene has them driving towards the camera.
Good spot, I never noticed that before.
i like the classic buick riviera
@yastunt this is better than cinima chase scenes, not how the only explosion throught the entire scene was actually plausible.
love this show
3:40 Okay, detective. You can question him now.
Reminds me of the car chase from Striking Distance with Bruce Willis.
"Set in Chicago, the show follows the adventures of Constable Benton Fraser (Paul Gross), a Mountie of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), who is attached to the Canadian consulate but works with Detective Raymond Vecchio of the Chicago Police Department to solve crimes, assisted by Fraser's companion Diefenbaker, a deaf white wolfdog.[4]"
- Wikipedia and Google are your friends.
What soundtrack?
Wait a minute.
I can't remember.
Where do the Great Plains start?
This reminds me of Driver 2
why is he dressed like a Canadian Mountie when he is in Chicago...
Dope fuckin cars, too bad the LTD Vic got blown up though
ok... thank you... now i get it... so its a Beverly Hills Cop kind of thing right?
The funny thing is - just once - i'd like to see the realistically.
Veccio will be lucky to keep his job, and might even get jail time. A man died in that collision. Veccio, despite driving his own car (not an actual police car) and despite the presence of a police cruiser and motorcycle unit in the pursuit continued to pursue the target vehicle until the collision occurred. Then there's the fact that he is a detective and may not even be pursuit-trained. And had formally be warned off the case. And his passenger is a civilian (yes - he's a police officer, but not in the USA). And his car didn't have emergency equipment (a silly flashing light on the dash isn't sufficient. The car should should strobes, flashing lights, high-output sirens and modified suspension, brakes and engine cooling).
I'd love to see him taken to a quiet room with his union rep, his captain and a HR person and interviewed, then sent home sans gun and badge. Then spend months waiting to find out what is going to happen. Will he face charges? will he face disciplinary action? Will the family sue?
The sleepless nights of self-doubt - should he have discontinued and let the marked units do their job? - was the death his fault? - is he a bad person because he bent the rules at the wrong moment? Was the dead man bad and deserve that, or is it his fault for not stopping?
unfortunately. None of that ever happens. Except in reality.
It's crazy when cars used by police chase each other. Notice they went past a Grand Marquis. Hated that the '80s Crown Vic blew up. I actually own the facelift version of that car.
This is an old television series with an emphasis on humor and comedy, not realism.
For example: In one episode that Riviera catches fire while being driven and they take their time to stop at a red light.
Whats the song called anyone?
the tragically hip - at the hundreth meridian
The Riv would be able to catch that Crown Vic without breaking a sweat.
What music is this?
the tragically hip - at the hundreth meridian
a clasica
Is there a reason the Mountie is in his dress uniform in this situation?
"That's not important right now."
Because Canada..... ?
Fraser is a traditionalist so he believes that the Red Serge is a more proper and fitting uniform for him to wear instead of the modern brown outfit. From the show's production standpoint, having your hero constantly wearing a bright red coat and a Stetson makes him stand out against the rest of the cast.
you know... just because you burn out... it does not mean you can not chase them anymore... it seams that they make cops look like total idiots in these movies...
Oh it's a Canadian cop lol didn't notice till the end ..in the 80s the r.c.m.p were nicknamed royal Canadian marijuana pushers.lol
Put the pedal to the metal make cops eat dust.
Those cops are anything but aggressive. Where is the anger?
Sort of. It's a comedy/action with an out of place officer at least.
Nice green car to bad it's a cop car.
I was hoping to see them crash that Buick!! Those things are UGLY!!
