Are you looking for the movie The Blues Brothers? (Not ChatGPT, I promise)

EDIT: Nah that's not it. It's way too old. And in mine the police crash for no reason before they even get anywhere near the scene of the crime.

I will skim thru it, but it doesn't look like the right setting. The movie was some generic action movie for some reason I remember Denzel Washington being in it but I looked through his movies from 2006-2012 and didn't find it. It was around that time. Setting had to be something like late 90s or later. Black SUVs dispatched and crashed for no reason at all. I have no idea what the movie was about but it was hilarious when this happened because IIRC it was a serious movie.

Unbreakable with Bruce Willis?

I skimmed through it at 10 second intervals but I didn't see any police cars?

can you recall anything else about the movie? its not a lot to go on if its not a major plot point

Literally all I remember is one scene where a bunch of cop cars or vans get dispatched for some reason like someone's about to die or a heist is happening, something of that nature. They all crash and roll over and wipe out on normal traffic roads for absolutely no reason, and the movie isn't even a comedy, just a generic action movie.

I can't remember one single thing other thing about it, not even the plot.

I do remember an urban setting.

yeah probably lost forever

this might be a good case for lifelogging, at least it would give you a limited set of movies to search

A movie where police cars crash without any reason and it's not even a comedy, it's in the range of Steven Segal body of work

It was a normal Hollywood movie as far as I could tell. I would have noticed if it was a Steven Segal movie.
